The user's only other comment was five minutes after this one, on the thread about how to go about selling old Unilever shares. The advice given by our helpful new user katei, included perhaps seeing a traditional stockbroker that could provide advice, or perhaps get a discretionary management service to take the decisions and sell for you.
The latter is ridiculous when the OP of the other thread just practically wanted to know how to sell an old share that had been bought years ago.
So it wasn't at all surprising to see the same person here talking about investment ISAs with outdated inaccurate information on a thread that's nothing to do with investments. They are probably paid by the line of text they post or the clicks they get.
I clicked the "this is spam" button, because, why not
Who's funding for people to spam?? :huh:
