why do people in Africa keep investing in Ponzi schemes after scams?

Tweet

Every year, you hear stories of ponzi schemes shutting down and dissappearing with investors funds in many parts of Africa . What amuses me most is how these schemes keep appearing year after year and people keep putting their hard-earned money in it. Can these people just stop and think for once and learn to say "No" to these people? Woke up this morning to hear that there has been a technical glitch on one of these schemes and people cant access their funds.
