    Matthew Hill

    The FMA alleged that between February 2013 and July 2020, Mr Hill made dozens of posts on Sharetrader in a thread about New Talisman under two usernames, “bullish” and “Epithermal”.

Mr Hill’s conduct was revealed in July 2020 when Sharetrader publicly identified him as the person behind the usernames.
