REV was accused of buying a bunch of semi-worthless businesses and then pumping up their value in various ways from 2020 to 2022. During the time of the alleged behavior, they owned Radio Shack, and their ownership of it was involved in the alleged malfeasance it sounds like.
The fact that after all was said and done, they sold it, doesn't really have a lot of bearing on what they were or weren't doing with it years before, when they did own it.
I know, but it still seems like a cheap attention-grabbing ploy to me. Probably just me being hypersensitive since I'm sooooooo tired of click-bait headlines.
Am I taking crazy pills or something?
It's not clickbait. They're accused of defrauding investors about Radio Shack, that's why Radio Shack is in the headline.
No, I guess I am. It's well past my bedtime, and I can't sleep so my brain's probably a bit off. Sorry.
All good, no worries, I was just confused lol
