Oh my god, I just saw that the car influencer Chester Car is promoting an investment plan on IG—2% per month, 24% per year, with principal guaranteed and withdrawable at any time. You can tell at a glance something’s wrong. Netizens immediately blasted it, saying it’s basically a Ponzi scheme. I looked into his background and found out that he’s actually been involved in some pretty complicated stuff in the past.

He’s a car YouTuber with more than 100,000 subscribers, but in 2017 he was the only survivor of the Zhongli shooting incident. Back then, he was attacked by gunmen at an underground sports betting company, and everyone else died. Later, he claimed he made 60 to 70 million TWD by trading cryptocurrencies, and he also invested in mining rigs and Ethereum. Now he’s promoting this kind of suspicious investment plan—no wonder people are questioning Chester Car’s involvement in a scam.

The most outrageous part is that he even emphasizes this isn’t a scam. The investment is supposedly about buying and selling rare luxury watches—but who would believe that? Legally, it could violate banking laws. If someone actually falls for it, they could face up to 7 years or more in prison. I don’t know whether the police will get involved, but it really looks suspicious. What do you think?
