He said, okay, that guy called up a whole bunch of people on week one, told half of them the stock was going to go up, told the other half the stock was going to go down. Then he called back the people who he was right with. And he told half of them about another stock that would go up. And the other half, he would say that stock's going to go down.

Then he called back the people who he was right with. And he told half of them about another stock that would go up. And the other half, he would say that stock's going to go down.

And then he did it a third time, calling back the people he was right two times with, telling half of them that the stock is going to go up and the other half saying it's going to go down. So by the time he did that three times, he had this small pool of people who he was right with every time. But really, he was just playing a math game with his victims.

And I think this is such a long but brilliant scam. Seemingly, this guy was golden, perfect, getting it right every time. But what I didn't know is that he was getting his predictions wrong all over town. And I was just one of the unlucky few that saw him get it right every time.

Support for this episode comes from Delete Me. Feels like a war out there. Companies all over trying to scrape and store all kinds of personal data about me.

And every now and then I Google myself and just get freaked out about the amount of data there is about me out there. This is why I use delete me.

It's like getting help in this war.
