Тестовое задание
A person has been promising investors in their company a very high annual return on their investment. To fund these promised returns, the person has been taking money from new investors and using it to pay the high returns demanded by earlier investors. What type of fraudulent activity is the person committing?
The described activity is characteristic of a pyramid scheme, which is similar to a Ponzi scheme. In a pyramid scheme, returns to earlier investors are paid from the contributions of newer investors rather than from profit earned by the operation of a legitimate business.
