I dont support this, but it cannot be called a scam.
Your opinion doesn't matter
If people are told they can share in the outcome of a court case that potentially has a large payout, then the onus is not on us to claim it a scam
Koorbanally himself said there is no crowdfunding,so whoever you think you're funding - you're not
until such a time where no payouts take place and we can then claim that false premise was provided.
I don't need to get shot to know it sucks
Crowdfunding is donations, and not purchases.
Crowdfunding is not for the promise of profit. Donation is not for the promise of profit
So I dont see people get shares being issued on future earnings from this court case.
Howey test disagrees with your assessment,and howey test says this is a Securitized Investment
Let's review:
- An investment of money - you paid money check
- In a common enterprise - "Surtie Crowdfunding" check
- With the expectation of profit - check
- To be derived from the efforts of others - check
Right,so now that we've worked out it's an investment,not crowdfunding or donations can you shut up about it?
If people want to donate, them let them.
People are investing seeking a return,this is not a donation except to scammers
So again, I was also a non-believer in this story until I actually saw the court papers,
The case was never in doubt
and I checked up on the advocates.
Yeah nah the "advocates" are not awe inspiring
All four of them are real.
Most conmen are
Ive been to court twice with two people helping me pay part of my court fees.
Irrelevant
I didnt scam them, they "donated" towards my cause.
If they expect more than they paid,they invested. You're illegally collecting deposits for an investment according to the reserve bank act
Layer of scams
This is no sunken treasure chest off Camps Bay story.
Probably more likely to be real
We cannot claim something is a scam until it meets the requirements of such.
Nope,the onus is on the collector to prove it's not.
No proof provided = scam.
If people are told that they are contributing towards a court case, then it is not scam.
Would you like to contribute to my
lamborghinicourt case? It really is not a lamborghini
And my understanding is that is the message people have been told.
Nope,put money in,get 100x out = investment. Whatever fanciful story you tell yourself has no bearing on the legality or accuracy
I have not seen anyone discussing the legitimacy of the background story.
Because it's irrelevant how a scam does a background story. Be they selling Meteors,plots on Mars,or 100x your investment in a ridiculous court case. The story is of no relevance
Just lots of back and forth bantering.
Yawn
The cat is out of the bag and the Surties are on the news.
Irrelevant
People can now follow the story for themselves and see what is happening.
Irrelevant
What I am concerned with now is that people should be informed of the probability of winning the case.
Irrelevant
That is not discussed, simply slammed as a scam
It's irrelevant,because the crowdfunding is a scam
with comments like "talking to a brick wall".
Because you are acting like a brick wall
