Ponzi schemes .....anyone ever fallen for one.

[Sarnie]

The problem with these schemes is that the pure maths means that there is no reason why it shouldn't work. If EVERY person introduces another x amount of people then there is no problem.

 

However, for these schemes to work you need a constant stream of millions of people and the maths says that the number of the people in the world will be reached way before everyone gets paid out.

I think the sad fact is that people will believe what they are told because they want so bad for it to be true.

I found this article about them

Reading through some of the various financial forums it would seem that The U.K authorities are on to this.

Google CEO of Banners Broker

[neo-ninja]

There was a guy on here who contacted me about one of these (yes a member!) asking me to buy his banner broker package etc... I told him it sounded like a Pyramid scheme and he claimed it wasnt.....was a bit akward...

[Ricey]

Hahahahahahahahahaha.

 

Name and shame! Name and shame! Name and shame!

 

It was sarnie wasn't it! No wonder he's been driving round in lambos before now......he's top of the pyramid!

[neo-ninja]

Infact just because i like to name and shame people i just found his PM it was - http://www.350z-uk.com/user/11600-craigy-hardcore/

[neo-ninja]

It was very akward to be honest, he was going on about how it was guaranteed money etc..

[neo-ninja]

Whats wierd though is for some reason it looks like he hasnt been online for ages and has no posts. But on my pm clearly says he has 800+ posts etc..

[neo-ninja]

I think the website has promise......

[rtbiscuit]

i was going to go for www.youvebeenponzid.com but i thought the other had more promise.

Rich, send me your bank details and I'll send over the the clubs money, that sounds too good to miss!

 

Always wondered how Sarnie had a Lambo, now we know!

[rtbiscuit]

well i've just got back from spain, and you guys are the first i've spoken too, and it was an opportunity i didn;t want you all to miss.

 

don't worry its not a pyramid scheme.

 

this is a pyramid scheme

 

 

and this is what i'm offering

 

 

as you can see they are completely different :wink:

[Chris`I]

So long as we dont invite our friends and fuel it on suckers, then its all good. If we can get those on benefits involved then we're onto a win/win as effectively we're recouping our taxes

[rtbiscuit]

genius chris, i hadn't thought of that,

 

do you want to be partners on this. we'll split it all 50/50, I've already setup the business so you'll have to buy in. now i value the business already at £500,000 so if you give me £250,000 we'll be equal partners. and you'll recoup that back easily in a few weeks. its fool proof. and we'll be millionairs
