How is this different from the scam where someone sends out stock tips for different companies to different people? The ones that were successful they send out another round of random stock tips. Some of those will be right. Then they can target the people they sent the right ones to and say, look we predicted these so we are successful.

Basically, if you have many people predicting something, just from randomness some will be more successful and some won't be.
