Organizing a group of people to put out dis-information that you know was false for profit. Is fraud as well.  Your intent and knowing that this info isn't true and profiting from it is a crime in almost all countries.  What usually gets you busted is the scale of your actions. If you're dumping 100+ BTC on POLO it isn't hard to find you.
