RE: What Happens To People Who Promote Ponzi Schemes?

in #steemit7 years ago

I do not think so, If I watch a youtube video on someone promoting a product or service and how well it is, it is still my choice to buy it or not. If that product fails or I lose money then its still my fault for not doing my research or due diligence.

Sort:  

But doesn't their convincing power persuade you? Also, the whole point of a ponzi is to get a set of people lure others in. It would be interesting to see if it were to happen, but I guess you're right.

Salesmen are paid to be convincing but its still a choice you have to make.

If they're working with the intention of scamming you, they need to be held accountable though! But yeah!
