I'm not surprised that many people will still fall for such scam... With how the country is, everyone is looking for any means to put food on their table and most of them want it quick.. these scammers as well want to put something on their table so they purge their ill activities onto innocent but greedy fellows..

They can't totally be stopped, so it's good to inform people of such things so they become aware and stay off anything that requires you send money to get money in return.. that the true definition of Ponzi...
