Abstract

Vsakodnevno se ustvarjajo prevare, ki delujejo zgolj na podlagi izkoriščanja ljudi, ki v nevednosti vlagajo denarna sredstva v različne sisteme pod pretvezo raznih obljub. Takšne so tudi piramidne sheme, ki so močno razširjen in škodljiv pojav že vrsto let, razvoj tehnologije in socialnih omrežij pa je razširjenost še dodatno povečal. Piramidne sheme slonijo na prevarantskih dejanjih, kjer se morebitnim udeležencem obljublja lahek zaslužek, ki naj bi bil mogoč s stalnimi denarnimi donosi, potrebna je le vložitev začetnega zneska, ki naj bi se prepustil upravljavcem, resnica pa je, da bi z vplačili poplačali denarne vložke predhodnih vlagateljev. Večina shem se konča z enakim scenarijem, in sicer, ko število sodelujočih naraste do točke, ko sheme ni možno več vzdrževati in izplačevati vseh izplačil, se shema zruši, z njo se razkrije celotna prevara, sodelujoči pa ostanejo brez denarnih sredstev in izpostavljeni finančnim in čustvenim stiskam. Z leti se je razvijal tudi mrežni marketing, ki je sedaj še lažje in hitreje zamenljiv s piramidnimi shemami, pojava se med seboj razlikujeta le v namenu delovanja, katerega pa se težko razjasni in prepozna, če se ju ne zna ločiti. Na podlagi prebrane literature in opravljene ankete smo ugotovili, da velika večina ljudi ne razlikuje piramidnih shem od mrežnega marketinga in so bili zaradi tega že izpostavljeni denarnim prevaram ter bili zlahka pretentani. Zaradi nezavedanja škodljivosti ob nepoznavanju pojavov je potrebno ljudi ozavestiti o tem ter izpostaviti negativne plati in same posledice, ki posameznike lahko doletijo.

Secondary title:	Pyramid schemes on social networks of facebook and instagram
Secondary abstract:	Scams are being created on daily basis, operating on promises that affect on people, which invest their money in different systems. Such are pyramid schemes, which have been a widespreaded and harmful phenomenon for many years and development of technology and social networks only contributed to an even higher increase of it. Pyramid schemes are based on fradulent acts where potential participants are promised easy earnings, which supposed to be possible through constant money returns, it is only necessary to invest an initial amount of money in the beggining. The truth is that the deposits would pay off money entries of prior investors. Most schemes end up with the same scenario, namely, when the number of participants grows to the point where scheme can no longer be maintained and pay out money investments, the scheme collapses. With collaps comes exposing of scam, leaving participants without money and exposed to financial and emotional distress. Over the years also network marketing developed and is now even easier to be mixed up with pyramid schemes. The only difference between them is in the purpose of operation, which is difficult to recognize or clarify if you cannot separate them. Based on the read literature and the survey, we found out that majority of people cannot separate pyramid schemes from network marketing and due to that, they have been exposed to scams. Due to lack of awareness of the harmfulness of not knowing how to recognize them, it is necessary to make people aware of it and point out negative sides and the consequences.
