YP.Net Suspects Short-Selling Manipulation of Its Stock Price

YP.NET, Inc. (OTC BB: YPNT), a leading provider of Internet Yellow Pages and
related services, today issued the following statement:

On January 8, 2004, YP.NET's stock fell by more than 30 percent, on volume of
almost 4.7 million shares, compared to an average daily volume of 229,000
shares, following a misleading and false report published by Stocklemon.com, an
Internet newsletter that, as reported in The Wall Street Digest, has a history
for finding OTC stocks that could be manipulated into short position profit
opportunities for the newsletter's owners.

Tellingly, buried at the end of the article, Stocklemon.com states: "At any time
the principals of Stocklemon.com might hold a position in any of the securities
profiled on the site. Stocklemon.com will not report when a position is
initiated or covered."

"This article is totally unwarranted by the facts and circumstances of the
Company's business," stated Angelo Tullo, YP.NET's CEO, "and we vigorously deny
each and every false and defamatory statement and innuendo that it reported."

David J. Iannini, YP.Net's CFO added, "YP.NET just completed the most successful
year in the Company's history, achieving a 144 percent increase in net revenues
to $30.8 million and a 114 percent increase in net income to $7.9 million for
the year, compared to $3.7 million for the prior year. These results reflect the
125 percent increase in customers from 255,376 Internet Advertising Package
customers from approximately 113,565 IAP customers at Sept. 30, 2002.

"Clearly, the short-sellers were not expecting such a stellar performance, and
they may have used this Internet publication to cash in at our shareholders'
expense. We are exploring all possible legal remedies to protect our
shareholders including contacting the SEC," Mr. Tullo concluded.
