I just saw something pretty strange. The car YouTuber Chester Car was reportedly exposed for recommending an investment scheme in his story highlights: 2% monthly returns, 24% annual returns, principal protection, and a minimum investment of 500k. At first glance, it looks like he’s selling rare watches, but a lot of people in the comments directly call it a Ponzi scheme—and some even dug up his past, saying he’s basically a scammer.

I checked his background and found out that back in 2017, this guy was involved in the Zhongli shooting incident and was the only survivor. Later, he switched careers and started making a car channel, and he still has quite a number of fans. But in recent years, he’s been getting accused online of scams. He himself said he went to the police station to file a complaint for defamation, but this particular investment scheme really does look highly suspicious.

What’s interesting is that he used to say he made 60 to 500k NT dollars by trading cryptocurrencies, yet now he’s recommending this kind of scheme again. Someone asked whether this violates the Banking Act, but since no one has come forward to claim they were scammed and the police haven’t taken action, it can’t be confirmed for now. Still, the rumors that Chester Car is running a scam have been around for a while, and this time another incident has popped up—it’s genuinely pretty confusing. Do you think this investment scheme is credible?
