It is unfortunate that there are still people who fall for such scams; a 200% return in just 14 days means you will lose your deposit the moment you send it.

Some people are foolish and ignorant of many things. What they like is TikTok but they do not want to learn about how they will not get scammed. All these are online where people can read it but what they prefer are watching movies, TikTok where they will not see many educating information about avoiding scam. 14 days 200% ROI is enough for people to know that it is a scam.

It seems like the Ponzi scheme scam projects are returning again. Not only on the forum, but in real life as well. One of my relatives called me last night to discuss an online investment she heard of. She said that people in her area are investing $3K to $6K and they are getting almost 10% profit every month. She asked me if I had heard about this and if she should invest as well. I advised her not to invest a single dollar there.

Some people do not think about how the company is going to pay them 200% in this short period of time. They think they just found a money-making machine. These Ponzi scheme websites pay some people to gain trust, and then end up scamming everyone.

Flag supported. I read the scammer's thread and they cannot even clearly express themselves on what they are offering, which in itself is also a red flag. I understand that offering returns that are too good to be true can help scammers attract victims, but i mean, 200% in 14 days has to take the cake, how do you expect someone to be so foolish as to believe this, what are the odds.

It's simple really: there is a constant influx of new people into crypto who think bitcoin is some sort of magic money, so for them even 200% profit doesn't seem so unrealistic. Add to that all the stories they must have been hearing about people getting rich quickly through crypto, and you get this.

Did they ever really go away? I can't remember a time when Ponzi scams actually stopped happening. The fact is that we only hear about them when they happen around us or when someone we know falls victim to one. I fell for many of these shitty scams back when I was just starting my crypto journey. They would claim to own some crypto mining site, and you were asked to invest money to buy some fake mining tools on the platform. Then, after a certain number of days, usually around 14 days like in OP's example, you would supposedly be able to withdraw your profits.

Gosh, those were some days. Before I understood how these scammers operated, I fell for quite a few of them. One thing I learned from those experiences is that we humans can be greedy, and when we see something that looks like an opportunity to make quick money, it's easy to fall for it.

it's the year 2026 and ponzi schemes are still a thing unfortunately.

they never really left, everywhere you go, you'll find some local ponzi scheme going on, it's just there hasn't been any big ones making news lately i think.

how do you expect someone to be so foolish as to believe this, what are the odds.

when it comes to "making easy money", there is no shortage of greedy, desperate, or less fortunate people who would throw all their money into a ponzi.
and a lot of them get duped by friends or family members, who themselves think they are helping them.

Unfortunately people will still fall for it since they have seen high yield profit of %200. They forget that anything like this is too real to be true. Such looks so enticing and more like a trap bit unfortunately I don't think that account holder can be able to lure members here into falling for such ponzi scheme here.
Greed is what will make people put interest in it because they are very greedy and want to get a big profit in return within a short period of time as such which is not possible. This is just a tricky scam shit and only uninformed greedy people will fall for it so easily.

The guy behind that Ponzi site is no amateur he’s likely a big scammer. He created a forum account on September 11th and made his first post in the beginners' section to make it look like he was new, then created the announcement thread for his Ponzi site just three days later. Everything about it is carefully planned; he even listed the site on Trustpilot back in July, as you can see in this photo:

Anyone who pays attention to this photo and sees the "4.2" rating might wonder why this Ponzi scheme has such a good score when it's actually a scam site. Well, if you scroll down further, you'll see something truly comical seriously, I laughed so hard I couldn't believe what I was looking at. Usually, in cases like this ( where someone reviews their own site ), people create accounts with odd names to avoid being easily detected. But guess what this guy did? He did this:

Now look at his username on this forum:



All the Trustpilot accounts that posted positive comments about his Ponzi scheme are likely his own accounts.

That's what I have noticed too, they are coming back and I've seen a couple of these a few days ago but off the forum.

Even to educate them, when they think that it's an opportunity for them to make quick bucks through it they'll still take the risk. The banks are giving low interest rates annually and that should give them an idea why so.

That’s a good point, no one would post good reviews for such an obvious Ponzi except the people behind it who want to use these fake reviews to fool others that their platform actually pays.

Also, if you check their platform, you’ll see "Live Transactions." These are actually fake transactions made by code to give visitors the false impression that people are using the platform and depositing money with them, hoping to turn their money into 3X in two weeks. These are unrealistic profit promises, and no legitimate platform can do that, this is common with scam platforms like this.



I’ll report the domain to its registrar, Tucows, and wait for them to review the report.

Nice catch mate. The posting style is also the same with the user in their Announcement thread in this forum, very poor English and they struggle to clearly communicate what they want to stay. It is obviously the same person.

Not that anybody would be surprised though, it is very common to find fake reviews on Trustpilot. It's either one platform smearing their competitor's reputation with fake reviews, or shills posting good reviews about a terrible site, like this case.

Probably yeah.
I don't know about the international ones, but I often hear news about local Ponzi schemes that are going on by scamming people. The problem is, a lot of educated people are joining, and they are even organizing meetups, so more ordinary people get interested in their projects. I am tired of telling them that these projects are scams and they will vanish anytime soon. But, indeed, I didn't see any big news lately.

Good eyes.
Also, if you notice carefully, the Lina account says it is from Indonesia. However, the website template shows russian text. Either they have used a VPN to operate their Trustpilot account, or they are targeting the Russian people.
