Wow! Shows how little changed since the 1990s. Here is why a pyramid
scheme will eventualy fail, and fail quick

Pyramid Schemes

In the classic "pyramid" scheme, participants attempt to make money
solely by recruiting new participants into the program. The hallmark
of these schemes is the promise of sky-high returns in a short period
of time for doing nothing other than handing over your money and
getting others to do the same.

The fraudsters behind a pyramid scheme may go to great lengths to make
the program look like a legitimate multi-level marketing program. But
despite their claims to have legitimate products or services to sell,
these fraudsters simply use money coming in from new recruits to pay
off early stage investors. But eventually the pyramid will collapse.
At some point the schemes get too big, the promoter cannot raise
enough money from new investors to pay earlier investors, and many
people lose their money. The chart below shows how pyramid schemes can
become impossible to sustain:
