Still scary.

I am so out of this. I dont know why but it really got a bad reputation to me. Look, you need to be sure that they will be staying for a year for ROI and every month you will be thinking "What if this is the last?". That is just so stressful man. I dont want to stress myself thinking of it always if it will go left or still go on the right direction considering my money is in their pockets and anytime they could run away.  Sad

In my opinion, I would not invest in any sort of scam. It propagates more of them as you are supporting them and encouraging them to make some more scams. Why not let's all just stop supporting them and so that they would just waste their money and time doing it. And if that happens, they will stop too and never try again.

That is why we should always be careful with what we are entering to. I am done with those networking or MLM, hyip or whatever scam is that, I don't want to be involve with them anymore, I am happy with what I am earning right now through the use of bitcoin. MLM is like hyip they are just profitable if you are pioneer or at early year after that nothing at all, they would just disappear and change their name.

if someday i decided to take ridiculous risks and in other words to gamble with my precious bitcoins then i would go to a proper casino and take some risks there.

i would never in a million years hand over my precious bitcoins to a scammer to take them and run away.

There is a FOMO brewing...

Here is a interesting, hypothetical situation. What will you do if there is a MLM scam going on and it is in early stage. It is assuring 10% monthly return in bitcoins (of course it has that referral bonus part as well but it is optional, you don't need referral as you are getting 10% on your investment.).  B'cause of it's early stage, people are investing happily and getting returns monthly. In short equation of incoming source money > outgoing money. By looking at situation, let's say this scam/scheme will go on two more year.   There are some people who rip benefits from these kind of scams/schemes as they invest very early and in large chunk.

Will you invest in such scheme well before it vanishes with bitcoins/money?

Investing in an MLM and then referring other people to it would be like scamming them as well. You are part of the scam since you're well aware that the whole thing is a scam. I can't believe how these people sleep at night knowing that the money they used to buy food, shelter and clothing came from scamming other people.

I really can't comment on the "by looking at the situation, it will go on for two more years." How did you come up with that? Scams like this can run away at any given time. They don't care about you and they made the whole thing look like it would go on for a long time so they can attract more people.

There are other ways to earn money and I'm not desperate enough to do such thing. I wouldn't risk my money to a well-known scam that's been going on for years already.

Not at all.I'm pretty lucky to much avoid those kind of business policy or fortunate got have quite knowledge in my early stage.Beware this MLM puzzle surely ponzi scheme.In a pyramid scheme, money from new participants is used to pay,just look like risky in beginning.You are investing in a pyramid scheme,so beware that kind of scheme.

100% NO even I know that it will become scam someday (that's obvious isn't it?)

Why? No such thing as early stage since scam may happen even at early stage. Imagine lots of money was injected to this MLM thing on just a first day, so on for 2nd and third etc. Those greedy owners will think of shutting down the site quick so that they can operate again another scheme and another fraud activity to scam users.

Yeah that is true. I will never ever deposit my money in the MLM even if I am the early stage member. The system is only created to steal other people money and it is not right to support it. I would rather spend my money to trade or to gamble. It will be much fun and if I am lucky enough, I can win some money from them

Mostly all mlm schemes are scam or ponzi schemes. They will get paid for first two days . Thats it. Then forget about getting paid by them . But recently I came across a MLM scheme called zarfund. I think its genuine. In this scheme there is no possibility of scam . Because its paid directly to upper level member . So i dont think its a scam . But I havent tried it . I have a plan to invest in this zarfund because it seems interesting and promising.

MLM is a puzzle scheme when you invest in it at the early stage depends on the publicity on the scheme if a lot of people embrace it you can gain some money in the early stage but if there is not  enlightenment it will be risky to invest in it

I will not join in because the ones I had tried I ended up bitten and lost my money whether joining early or joining late is not a determining factor that you won't lose as no one is in the position of knowing the time the site will pack up except the adminstrators of the site who might even close down in five days after they might have gathered everything they needed within the few days where one might still be thinking he is joining in early.

Yes, I will invest in a MLM scam in early stage. I'm not that "stupid person" who is investing on a scam scheme sit or investment, I'm just being practical. If I know a site like this, that is in early stage that promising 10% per month and also it will be last for 2 years then i will grab it and for sure, I will earn a lot of money from that kind of 'scam investment' because i'm an early bird who take the risk and i know that i already manage my risk by investing early on that kind of scheme so for sure i can get good profits from that.

your question doesn't make any sense, you are saying it yourself "it is a scam" then you say would you invest in a scam. if you didn't know it is a scam then it was a different story.

and this is what will happen no matter if you go in early or late.
you go in and invest some amount, they they start paying you some profit and before you reach ROI they run away and if you request withdrawal before they run away and you reach ROI they deny your request. simple as that you lose both ways.

if you go in early you lose small amount, if you in late you lose more. in both cases it ends with loss.
This is definitely right, I have nothing to say about what he/she mentioned above. Once you join in mlm whether you out early or late it ends with loss. Meaning never try to engage yourself in any ico coins that are related into mlm  due to most of it are just hype, boasting, lots of promises, then in the end they will runaway with your investment.

It's risky and unethical especially provided that not all people getting in are knowledgeable enough to know and understand that there;s potential to earn at other people's expense.

Of course not, a scam is a scam no matter how you look at it, even if you end up benefiting of it, if you know it is a scam you are helping the scammers getting away with their crimes, while you probably cannot be accused of anything it is still an immoral activity.

No i won't for simple reasons, MLM is not allowed in my country and it can get you serious problems with the justice.
Secondly, you are just stealing money from the people who joined after you as you are paid with their money. You are using people to get you a profit on their back. And finally i don't like MLM, legit or scam

Will you invest in such scheme well before it vanishes with bitcoins/money?
I am able to understand your question as I have seen some PTC users who will buy membership on every new PTC site for some $100 as they claim they will earn more than that quickly in first 4 days of those PTC sites before they will stop paying users.

Similarly some people prefer investing in obvious ponzi, but personally I hate them with a passion. I never will touch them for any reasons.

Here is a interesting, hypothetical situation. What will you do if there is a MLM scam going on and it is in early stage. It is assuring 10% monthly return in bitcoins (of course it has that referral bonus part as well but it is optional, you don't need referral as you are getting 10% on your investment.).  B'cause of it's early stage, people are investing happily and getting returns monthly. In short equation of incoming source money > outgoing money. By looking at situation, let's say this scam/scheme will go on two more year.   There are some people who rip benefits from these kind of scams/schemes as they invest very early and in large chunk.

Will you invest in such scheme well before it vanishes with bitcoins/money?

Scam is always scam to me and I will never invest my money for this kind of websites so long as I am not deceived. The stage, the timing, the profit is not important. Even I am 100% sure I will get my money back, I will not use a scam scheme. Because I get the money, which belong to someone else who has lost already his/her money.
