Have you ever been approached by someone representing OneCoin or any other Bitcoin ponzi scheme?

There has been a lot of talk about various Ponzi schemes active in the world of Bitcoin and digital currency, and how some of these projects seem to target novice users individually. Recruiting new members by hosting a fancy seminar or meeting is a great way to keep up the illusion of legitimacy, and seems to be what OneCoin has been doing for quite some time now. But as most people are well aware of, this program is nothing more than a scam waiting to collapse at any moment.

This bullshit pyramid scheme is still alive and kicking. Two weeks ago a friend of me asked what I knew of onecoin, i never heard of it before, so I said to him that the fact that I didn't heard of it isnt a good sign.. After a few min of research my presumption was confirmed.

Then one day later my girlfriend was called by a friend of her, promoting onecoin !... so I quickly stepped in and tried to explain why it was a scam. But since she had no knowledge of crypto its hard to explain to someone. It pisses me off it gives a bad name to crypto and to the mainstream people ..

I feel bad for the people getting enthusiastic about crypto but then got ripped of.., and worst of all promoting the coin ripping off other people without them knowing and in the end there all empty handed and hating crypto   pffff

Isnt there something we can do about it? report it somewhere?

It certainly is still alive, coming to London with its Circus this week.
Probably the best tracker of OneCoin and the Bulgarian Mafia that run it is a site called http://behindmlm.com/ .
Current subjects under scrutiny there include

http://behindmlm.com/companies/onecoin/is-onecoins-blockchain-useless/

http://behindmlm.com/companies/onecoin/45-7-million-recovered-from-chinese-onecoin-scammers/

http://behindmlm.com/companies/onecoin/onecoin-hire-symbol-media-group-for-ponzi-promotion/

http://behindmlm.com/companies/onecoin/ignatova-has-spent-35-million-on-bulgarian-property/

http://behindmlm.com/companies/onecoin/onecoin-affiliates-banned-from-vandalizing-wikipedia/

Happy reading.

As for "reporting", most authorities only take complaints from people who have actually suffered a loss and can prove it, as opposed to third parties who look at a crock of shit like OneCoin and realise what an obvious scam it is.

No, it isn't a real coin and isn't traded anywhere.

It Quite hyped up in Asia especially in India " Quick get rich schemes"  It is so confusing that when the whole lot of people is referring it as a Ponzi scheme why do they invest in such ideas. I guess it is the power of greed that took over them.

I realize that, but was thinking more of a gambling site having odds of when it collapses.
