Topic: So You Want to Invest in a HYIP/Ponzi Program? (Read 25366 times)

Today I attempted to integrate Ponzi sites into this page by asking people to provide feedback on whether they saw a return or non-payment. It would have been a neutral and unbiased way to ensure such sites remained honest.

Then I noticed a moderator had unpinned the page, not any reason given.

Clearly the way to go instead of being rational and calm, and providing people with reliable information is to just flood the Gambling forum with 'scam' accusations, give negative trust ratings and continue to make the entire forum a playground.

I tried... and on that note, since the mods want to be assholes I'm done. Obviously one of the crybabies that floods Ponzi posts was upset that they lost their control and ability to make unfounded accusations against these sites. Clearly having a neutral and fair party intervene was not the way to go.

So fuck this site... I'm closing my account and done here.

1. always research before investing
2. remember if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

No I dont escrow anymore.
I would like to add

http://leancy-refund.tk

to the list of sites to avoid. These guys are taking advantage of victims of Leancy with ridiculous rates and already reports of non-payment.

SCAM



Code:
295% after 30 minutes
665% after 3 hours
1885% after 8 hours ( Special for those who lost much money )

What would they have to invest in to make almost 300% in 30 minutes?

Well, thanks for the lengthy and great post. Did know most of it, but the method to search for pictures within google. I usually use tineye for that, but I imagine google is better for that.

I thought you were going to ignore me 2 posts ago?

You misunderstand my post, which isn't surprising considering you fell for the Leancy sales pitch.

It wasn't just me, it was all over the web, and it was apparent to anyone who isn't retarded.

You either fell for an obvious scam, and are retarded - or you wanted to get in on a scam and rip off other people, and you failed, either way you lose.  Tongue

Hahaha, the best comeback you have is to point out a typo.

As I pointed out in the post which you just quoted, it was all over this forum and the rest of the web that it was a ponzi. You managed to miss every warning and lose your money in it despite that. It wasn't a single post in the gambling section. It wasn't even anything to do with posts about Leancy, anyone with 3 brain cells could spot that no site was going to take $2 investments and "crowdfund IT start-ups" with it.

So options 1 or 2 still stand, option 3 is clearly not the case.

1) You are massively retarded and genuinely didn't realist it was a ponzi despite people posting in the thread "this is a ponzi" plus people all over the forum saying "this is a ponzi" plus people all over the web saying "this is a ponzi".

2) You knew it was a ponzi (which fits with your publicly admitted plan to "get out safe") and you just wanted to scam later adopters, you got your fingers burnt and are now butthurt that you didn't manage to scam anyone, in which case you deserve to lose your money.

Calling someone retarded and then going on to say "didn't realist" rather than "didn't realize" (or 'realise') is mucho funny. lawl! lawl!


Can I add an option #3? I can? Thanks piggy.

3) I didn't read the Gambling forum at the time, and if I had I'd probably have not even found the post in question with all the junk in there.

Anyway you can have options one and two and I'll have option number 3. I'll consider the conversation over, because I don't like to argue with people such as yourself who are intellectually challenged. Also, I don't feel it necessary to explain myself to you further, nor concern myself my your thoughts. Be sure to write back though just to show that you care.

LAWL!

No it was only after I'd send the coins that I began to research the company and realize my error.

The focus of this thread is to warn others not to justify myself, particularly to a Mr. "Piggles" (lawl). So I'll be ignoring you from here on in.

I posted in the Leancy thread, it seems a week before you ever invested I made a post warning it was a ponzi. People either ignored it, or criticised me for pointing it out.

so "lawl" at you, for ignoring people pointing out it was a ponzi.

Either

1) You are massively retarded and genuinely didn't realist it was a ponzi despite people posting in the thread "this is a ponzi" plus people all over the forum saying "this is a ponzi" plus people all over the web saying "this is a ponzi".

2) You knew it was a ponzi (which fits with your publicly admitted plan to "get out safe") and you just wanted to scam later adopters, you got your fingers burnt and are now butthurt that you didn't manage to scam anyone, in which case you deserve to lose your money.

I tried Leancy, got in early March and thought I had time to get out safe. Nope.

Tried Twelverized a few days ago thinking plenty of time, nope. Twelverized indeed... 12 days later they're gone.



Why did you think you'd need time to "get out safe" if you fell for the marketing and thought they were legit?

You knew it was a ponzi all along

The whole OP could be swapped for the following more condensed post:

So You Want to Invest in an HYIP/Ponzi Program?

Introduction

Don't.

The age-old wisdom "if it sounds too good to be true, it typically is" still applies. If a company can prove to have the ability to generate more than 0.2% of profit per day (that's more than doubling up in a year, counting compounding profits), then venture capitalists and other larger investors will be falling over eachother to invest. Which is much simpler and cheaper for said company, since that way they don't have the meddle with deposit/withdrawal systems, support, etc...

All of these programs, no matter how they wrap it up with nicely believable background stories, well written analyses, pictures of good looking people, etc... are scams.

The sad, but simple truth.

So you knew they were a scam, yet you joined in the hope that you would make money and "get out safe" by taking advantage of the greater fool - whoever joined after you?

Knowingly taking part in these scummy schemes is just as bad as starting them, you're still trying to rip people off.

No I had actually believed their marketing (with some apprehension) until I learned what a Ponzi was. Now I educate others.

I fully knew the risk of signing up to Leancy, Barclays Club, and RevenueHourly, but after reading the O.P's thread, i don't think I'll be wasting my time anymore. Over the years I've seen these types of HYIPS, so I just wanted to put some pocket change in to see it for myself. From this point on, I'll stop promoting these programs.

Comprehensive post detailing why ponzis are indeed scummy. At this point if you are greedy/dumb enough to lose your money in a ponzi, I won't even feel bad.

A fool and his money are soon parted.

Funny, that was going to be my closing line in the post.
Sometimes no matter how much talking about these things you do, people still fall for them. I was invested in leancy, but I only invested as much as I could lose. In the end, I ended up with about how much I started with. The people that don't think things through usually end up with less money than they started with.
