Pyramid scheme participants will not be compensated, says consumer commission
The Consumer Protection Act is clear, nobody can directly or indirectly promote or knowingly join, enter or participate in a pyramid scheme.
#myfok I see someone has left the demo button on all this time.Works through loadshedding only with 14.6V adapter (sold separately).
Copy button slightly tarnished from repeated Ponzi scams with same script.

That makes no sense. So if I were to put in 1 BTC, take it out, put it back in, take it out, repeat a total of ten times, I'm liable for 10 BTC? Not saying that's not the law, only that it's bonkers.Forfeited to the state
Is he playing Leisure Suit Larry?

They did a remake of the original in 2013 but I didn't play it for fear it would ruin the fond memories of the original.Is he playing Leisure Suit Larry?
So essentially, true victims get pennies on the dollar and the people who orchestrated and promoted the scam lose everything that they have left? Likely that would be nothing due to an early exit else the state has to actually go after them to recoup the money they had taken out? given this is BTC, chances of recouping this are 0?
Well thought out plan I tell you, this lot are really no dummies.
They are dummies, they go around boasting how much btc they have in the pool. They’ll need to prove it. They are the scum of the earth, they would steal from their own mothers.
Ive still got a shoe box full of floppy games if neededBwahahahahahaha - the punch cards did not give it away. I used the last of the punch card machines at Maties in 85.
Oooooh mthat was a wicked game .Is he playing Leisure Suit Larry?

Oh right, that makes sense. Not entirely sure it's fair, as in if you get duped for longer you should get less than someone who figured it out almost immediately and withdrew their capital immediately, but then since when is the law fair? I expect in reality it'll be almost impossible to trace all the people who contributed and they wouldn't bother going after anyone who only put in a small amount, assuming they can be bothered to go after anyone.Proceeds of criminal activity.
Assume you are "innocent" and the court orders liquidation and distribution of the scheme - liquidators still have to gather every cent they can and then split across debtors.
Because you have drawn and deposited multiple times gives you no greater right than the person who drew nothing and lost everything.
The fact that BTC is involved may only protect the more sophisticated.
Proceeds of criminal activity.

@PsyWulf Here are some more videos
This guy does an excellent job explaining why MTI is a financial service that should have a FSP number.
Anyways, to me it is becoming abundantly clear that MTI is a concoction of carefully crafted and meticulously prepared methods of money extraction.
In other words, A very well planned scam.
At some point there was likely a meeting that went something like:
- we know bitcoin and ai are the current hype
- we know pyramid schemes can make money
- we know if we mix mlm into this that we can extract larger volumes
- we know that if you want to grow a big business then you need a cult following
You’re dealing with people who have amassed a lot of experience here when it comes to money extraction.
There is literally no way that this so cult like simply by chance... No no no, someone has literally studied cult psychology and incorporated this into the operational tactics.
It is actually a really well thought out plan and I’m sure their exit strategy is too.
did I say 20% ? I meant 2%Since you have admitted to benefiting from a pyramid scheme please keep that 20% handy since you may be required to hand it over.
