I just got pump and dump spam for a company with the ticker symbol POWN.

Which I figure is what will happen to me if I get involved in it
 
Mmm, I'm trying to decide whether to help push this thread into the abyss or help keep it afloat. It's so tough deciding! 😱

Yahoo Finance says POWN belongs to POW! Entertainment. Is it the same one as this one?

Sadly, it also reports that neither pwn or pwnd is a valid ticker in the US or Canada. 🙁
 
The people who sent you that mail are idiots. It's either owned or pwned. Not pown(ed)...😉

Thats the one. The spam was full of all sorts of pictures of Stan Lee looking like a super hero.
