Hi again,

after the highly successful offering of AWHO#01, it is time for round 2!

Awkward Honesty, A serious attempt at running a legitimate and transparent Ponzi scam.



Once again, I will accept investments at a higher return percentage than what you can expect elsewhere, with no real source of profit other than the investments themselves. for this round I will introduce varying rates, more on that below.

there is no collateral and you can not trust me. it is this simple. however, logically my aim is to walk away with as much isk as possible. so obviously, I am still grinding reputation for the coming few rounds, until I feel the pool of isk is big enough for me to point and laugh. until that time, you will see worthy returns. better yet, as long as I have the feeling that there is room for growth in the isk pool, I will keep on running the rounds. this means that I could very well run these rounds beyond the hundreds of bilions, as long as I know I can repay the percentages and as long as I know I will have returning customers and new investors.

But you already admitted that this is a scam... !? how the flying F!@# do you expect me to invest in this!?

90% of the offerings you see at MD are coverup scams with very thin stories, just insulting your intelligence. even worse, most of these are not thinking big enough. running off with a mere 500 mil at a time, destroying their reputation even before it was anything to build on to begin with... its all just one big waste of effort. lastly, there is no fun in it. at the very least, if you are going to try and scam someone, at least make it something more worthy of your time than acting like a crackjunk late for his score. we got plenty of those, its called jita local and we can keep it there.

I am offering full transparency about my intentions. I will even explain the psychology behind my offering, from there on you have all the tools you need to see how far you are willing to go. I am not in it for the small cash, I want the big stuff. until that time, I will hand out returns. find proof in the linked first round (or next run, you will find it in this thread). I want to become a volatile commodity, a healthy investment for as long as you and I both believe we can profit off this. I have the isk to keep this up until deep in the multi-bilions, so in a way I am investing in you, while you are investing in me.

this is round 2. a higher target, but still at the foot of the mountain. I won't run off just yet.


so what's in it for me?

Arrow a 9.3% return on your investment.
Arrow a 10.1% return on your investment for returning customers.
Arrow a 12,2% return on the highest contributor of the round, from hereon dubbed the Most Valuable Investor (MVI)

the terms:
Arrow minimum investment size is 50 mil.
Arrow round will go for 1 week, until sunday 22, 23.59. payouts will happen within 24 hrs after that.
Arrow round will start sunday 15th, 23:59 eve time.
Arrow no max pool size.

If you are interested, contact me per mail or post in this thread with your desired amount. upon confirmation, send your isk to me with description AWHO#02.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.

Kind regards,

Sanchez.



DISCLAIMER

This is, ultimately, a fraudulent scheme. therefor, there is a risk of losing everything you invest. be smart about what you invest with me, don't invest what you cant afford to lose.


UPDATE
the grand scheme has been set in motion sunday 15th of december, 23.59 eve time. one week from now, payouts will be done to those brave enough to have invested with me.

If you feel like you have missed the chance of a lifetime, please don't hesitate to contact me via mail and we can walk through the option available for you. special early bird bonuses apply for you if you wish to reserve a spot for the next round. once again, contact me for more info.

Last but not least,
Check back in on this post from time to time. I give out "highly valuable market analysis and advice" from time to time. only for winners.

once again,
thank you all for investing with Awkward Honesty. may this round's growth be a prelude to all that's to come.

in an effort to create stability and longevity for the lot of us, may I present to you
AttentionThe Early Bird ProgramAttention


What it is:

From now on, I will be allowing people to reserve a spot on the next AWHO round at 11,4%. I am introducing this for very obvious reasons, namely to feed the payouts of the previous round. because of the perpetual nature of a ponzi, it will become harder and harder over time to payout the investments. the early bird program will stall this process and will make sure the ponzi will live longer and eventually grow bigger.

So what if my early bird investment turns out to be MVI?
obviously, this would be awesome. for that reason, early bird MVI's will see their return percentage upgraded to a full 13.7% return! that's right, 13.7 %! how awesome is that!

How to apply:
Post in this thread or mail me your desire to become an early bird. also, include how much you would like to invest. upon confirmation from my hand, wire the isk to my account with ticker AWHO#03EB. once received, I shall update your EB status on the forums. easy does it!

Don't hesitate, apply today!

Current MVI is an anonymous investor with 200 mil isk. his interest rate will be at 12,2% if no one else tops his investment.

quick glance at the situation so far: in little over a day, we have already grown the pool to over two times bigger than last round. this is quite exciting indeed!

alright then. round is filling up well!
I will be gone until around midnight, for all of those who still want to jump in on this:

deposit your investment in my character wallet with ticker AWHO#02, then either mail me or post here with your deposited ammount. I'll verify when I'm home again. my next update will be the closing of the round. don't hesitate, jump in while you still can!

And so, the saga continues!

this round, we've seen the customer base quadruple in size since last round. this is impressive, I've seen more agonizing and longer discussions arise on these forums with people trying to claim their legitimacy for less, where all I need to do is tell you I am ultimately no more than a fraudulent scammer and the isk flows freighterloads at a time...

Best part is, once again I will not run with your isk. oh nooooonononono this is what separates the men from the sheep (oh yeah, and the strip of sea between new zealand and australia. that too): every scammer would have run off by now, not even taking the time to write this post, unless he would run off after all. then he would just state how hard he scammed everyone, do a victory dance and get washed away by the sands of time.
damn I'm smug.

anyway,
enough with the self-penetration; here's this week's battleplan:

first of all, I will need to log in again. haven't done that in a while other than to check the tickers and fap to it. man that stuff looks good in your wallet. awho#02. should print a shirt of those for ingame characters so you can switch em up with those queef shirts. business plan, anyone? whew that escalated quickly. where was I... ah yes. logging in. from there on, I will do a thorough analysis of the market and probably find out that 1 week time wont be enough to do any serious manipulation. probably then shall I fit a rifter and join faction warfare to make some buttloads of nerfed FW LP and I shall find out that it is indeed still more profitable than trying to dabble in the fine arts of station spinning. then for my ultimate plan, I shall invest in 2 things:

Attention Blink
Attention Guidance Systems.

this will make no sense whatsoever, but the world of sense is no fun to begin with. I want pandemonium. speaking of, I am inspired by bitcoins and feel we should introduce something similar. from now on, I shall also accept damsels as payment, if the damsel value resembles the isk value of the due investment. I shall dub it DamselCoin (DLC).

let me check...
yup. that's a wall of bullshit. my job is done for today.

once again, special thanks to my investors. I shall keep you guys posted as we go.
Cheers,

Sanchez

Awww that's a shame Tom, as one of the early birds I would have loved to see you participate in this round. I might have something interesting for you. I'll write out the full idea when I'm home, but basically it comes down to this: how would you like it if I would give you a hero-percentage for reserving your spot for the next round? percentage would be between the MVI and returning customer rate, but I would need your investment before the current round closes. the reason is pretty obvious: from there on, I would start paying out the current round from the next round of investors, which would set up the feedbackloop needed to run a successful ponzi. this would also be grant you a decent base of speculation on how much longer the AWHO's will be able to survive.

sound good? Mail me Smile
