Breaking news and expert analysis on fast-moving AIM and LSE listed shares
He may be £500,000 down in six weeks but perhaps that is why market abuser Chris Oil is seeking distraction in a relationship. Thanks to an eagle eyed reader who spotted this gem on a singles website.

Flip Flop may be right.. Given the most recent Ashley Madison hack in which many people have signed up using bogus e-mail addresses you have to wonder along similar lines as to how ‘honest’ people are when they sign up for such sites elsewhere. It could be a bogus account….
“About Me

Hear the chosen ones voice on advfn podcast show live from the city.
Not to mention excellent tweets from chrisoil twitter city investor and multi bagger guru
Respect keep up the good work”
Looks bogus.
Perhaps Ben can contact Chris to find out if it is legitimate. Oooops, silly me. Chris has told Ben to leave him alone. If Chris looks in then if the membership is bogus he might wish to contact legal@plentyoffish.com in order to get it taken down.

If it’s bogus, where did they obtain his photos from?

That’s one. I’m sure he has left a few others about on the InterWebs.

Looks like a mate playing a prank on him to me ……………….but ……………… he is looking a bit pale . Best not to go to close or you might be getting some teeth in the neck and accompanying slurping noises .

Well normally I would have some sympathy for someone who gets the piss taken out of them, but this is Chris Oil, so I don’t.
The solution is simple, stop frigging lying

Aghh!!! It burns! It burns!! Must have mind bleach.
DUCK AND DIVE
This is obviously bogus and the only person diminished by it is TW for falling for it.
Had it been real, it would have been a childish and totally unjustifiable intrusion into the Oil Idiot’s personal affairs — for no gain whatsoever since, despite TW’s invention, there is nothing unusual or untoward about the profile (apart from the ‘About me’ nonsense).
I once had high hopes that the financial industry would take this site seriously.
Paul Scott
I don’t like this type of thing at all – it smacks of playground bullying, and devalues the site in my view.
Paul.
ROB
Interesting, if you zoom in, one if the books lying flat is titled ‘Man and his Image’. Hmmmm.
Any prospective partner should have an interest in Venice and World Methodology.
filthy lucre
Paul Scott is right. Please try to fight your appalling instinct to bully, Tom.
Abdiel
Ben was right. This is very bad taste, even if he is a lying fantasist, and its obviously a fake profile.
CPPH
Why do you persist with the bullshit. Yes, Chris Oil is a figure of fun and should be ridiculed at all times however, SP is breaking new ground, its really sticking it to the crony capitalist, it is genuinely making a difference to PI’s. All this shit does is make you look like tossers. Cut it out, fight the good fight.
filthy lucre
CPPH If Tom looks like a tosser, and acts like a tosser………………………….
