But in many Ponzi schemes, the fraudsters do not invest the money. Instead, they use it to pay those who invested earlier and may keep some for themselves.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With little or no legitimate earnings, Ponzi schemes require a constant flow of new money to survive. When it becomes hard to recruit new investors, or when large numbers of existing investors cash out, these schemes tend to collapse.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ponzi schemes are named after Charles Ponzi, who duped investors in the 1920s with a postage stamp speculation scheme.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Few of the recent examples of the same is of\u00a0 <strong><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><em>Speak Asia, PACL Ltd., IMA Scam in Karnataka<\/em><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">PACL Ltd.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A milk seller named Nirmal Singh Bhangoo was the founder of PACL Ltd., the known as Gurwant Agrotech.
