Rogue 'Google buys ICOA' press release denied, retracted

Press release possibly part of pump-and-dump stunt
An announcement that Google acquired ICOA Wireless for $400 million has been denied by both companies, shortly after trading volumes increased in both companies. A press release claimed to be published by ICOA has been circulated by PR Web before being retracted, and has forced the public Wi-Fi hotspot provider to openly deny the acquisition.
