oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 5238 Posts	Posted 09/06/2017 8:03 pm The really sad thing is that all the people who sent this guy money could have easily bought gold and silver directly from a number of places and not needed to trust anyone. They would have their precious metals in hand, whether or not the end of the world came as expected. Report this Post to the Staff

And from the description in the article he wasn't running a Ponzi scheme, just an out right fraud scheme of send him the money and he keeps it.
