Types of scam

Ponzi and High-Yield Scheme

A scheme paying existing members from new members money.

Recovery outlook
Very difficult

How this operation works

The scheme promised fixed or unusually high returns and relied on recruiting new participants. Early withdrawals may have succeeded, which is characteristic. Recovery usually depends on an insolvency process or asset seizure rather than a direct reversal.

Warning signs

  • Fixed daily or weekly returns regardless of market conditions
  • Referral commission for recruiting others
  • Pressure to reinvest rather than withdraw
  • No verifiable evidence of the underlying trading or business

How recovery usually works for this type

  • Claim in liquidation or receivership proceedings
  • Class action or group litigation participation
  • Asset seizure distribution where authorities intervene
