RE: Pump and Dumps! How are people happy to basically take others money? 😳

in #altcoin7 years ago

The downfall of no regulations. If they were doing this in a regulated market it would put them in jail. The fact they they are so brazen and public about their scamming is crazy.

It's like all of these big name Bitconnect assholes. Now that it has fallen they think people are overreacting by publicly calling them out on their bullshit. They scam people for MONTHS and make tons of money and just want things to carry on as normal when it's over.

Sort:  

unregulated or not - these guys put their names out there for the world to see - it is possible that class action law suit can be brought against these individuals as well as Youtube - if after all they participated in a ponzi scheme that lost people money - they participated in theft and that doesn't need to be regulated - just needs to be illegal in the country you are operating in - if Trevon is in the USA making and distributring thes videos and getting paid money that he did not return - then he can be subjected to federal laws and sued and/or even prosecuted - He should have stayed anonymous like the rest of Bitconnect leadership...my attorney says you can sue anybody for anything....

I agree completely. Just because something is unregulated doesn't make it free and clear from already established laws. But you would have to prove that these assholes knew that they were taking part in a scam, which would not be easy.

except for the fact Trevon I believe mentioned a couple of times that it was probably a scam and if so .. oh well... ( I could be wrong about it being him... but one of those guys DEFINITELY said something to that effect - and Trevon is pretty much the only one I watched talk about it)

I agree 100%. It drives me crazy how they are now acting like everyone should just move on (some even moving to Steemit like, hey we'll just forget all that). The money they made was insane and they seem to have zero regret.

It reminds me of this scene from Naked Gun
