I will ask you this for the third or fourth time, is investing in a ponzi illegal in your country? Not promoting, investing

please just give me a straight yes or no answer

1. Probably not, no, but I expect it would depend on the circumstances. Regardless, this is irrelevant to the topic at hand.

Do you honestly think that tagging those that invest in ponzi schemes will stop people from making them?

2. That isn't the point in tagging them. The tag is to show other users that the person running the ponzi shouldn't be trusted with their money.

Also, how does investing in a ponzi make someone a scammer?

3. This isn't the point. OP didn't just invest in a ponzi, he promoted it to over 100 people. Please don't try and tell me that all of these 100 people know exactly what a ponzi is and how it works.

1. So if investing in ponzi schemes arent illegal, why are we giving negative trust for investing?

2. But the person who got the neg isnt running a ponzi, you shouold look into the matter more

3. Maybe some of them dont know, im pretty sure he didnt get those refs from bitcointalk hence why i dont see the need for the negative rep on his profile

1. Because you're supporting a ponzi, and it's operator. May I say, operating a ponzi is illegal, and by investing, you're assisting the operator, and you're basically assisting in a crime.

2. Same as above.

3. Some people deserve it. If they cant see the red italics at the top of the scamzi section, it's their fault. Oh, and the countless threads about butthurt investors telling people how bad ponzis are.
