I spoke with SYR ASX management myself about viceroy research scam fake news
They contacted all relevant brokers about it after it appeared debunking it and would be happy to have a conversation with any shareholder who needs to understand that it all complete and utter crap. Your broker can also clear things up for you.
The fellow I spoke to informed me they are not in the business of responding to every rumor and prefer to get on with the job.
Many shareholders may not be aware of the new CEO's exceptional credentials.
