Welcome to our collection of high-yield investment scams. Please be aware that these examples are for educational purposes only and not for actual use.
Meet "Buddy's Get Rich or Die Tryin'". This scam promised investors a 20% return on investment, with a twist: you had to send Buddy a signed affidavit of your love for them.
Introducing "Investment Firm X" - a scam that promised investors a guaranteed 50% return on investment, with a side of fake lawyer letters and a "certified" seal of approval from a fake government agency.
Our certification is not made up
Meet "The Refund Guarantee Investment Co." - a scam that promised investors a refund, but only after they had invested their entire life savings and waited for years.
Our refund policy is not as clear as we say it is
Introducing "The Ponzi Scheme 2.0" - a scam that promised investors a 100% return on investment, with a twist: you had to invest in a series of increasingly absurd get-rich-quick schemes.
Meet "Buddy's Get Rich or Die Tryin' 2.0" - the sequel to our previous example. This scam is similar to the original, but with a few new wrinkles, like a fake "investor's forum" where you could talk to other investors who were also just pretending to be investors.
Why should you love Buddy again?
Introducing "The Free Lunch Investment Co." - a scam that promised investors a free lunch, but only if they invested in their "revolutionary new technology" that would change the world (and your bank account).
Our technology is not as revolutionary as we say it is
Meet "Buddy's Get Rich or Die Tryin' 2.0 Again" - the third installment in our series of scams. This one is similar to the previous two, but with a few new twists, like a fake "investor's support group" where you could meet other investors who were also just pretending to be investors.
Why should you love Buddy again again?
