Firstly, "Pump & Dump" schemes are illegal based on securities laws. So if you're in a country where coins are considered a security, you could land yourself in legal trouble.
There's two possible outcomes:
While someone is always winning or losing in the markets, the big difference is that a P&D scheme involves intentional deceit. If you're actively promoting false information or lying to people in order to make a profit, that basically amounts to theft.
Would you break into someone's house to steal their money? No?

Depends on your location.
Some jurisdictions regulate cryptocurrencies as a security, in which case this scheme is illegal.
The regulation of cryptocurrency is also changing very rapidly, and it's possible that any government could increase regulation at any time, as well as investigate previous crimes and illegal activities if they were substantial enough.
