“FBI Discovers Surge in Online Investment Fraud, Dubbed ‘Great Invest-Mime Crime Wave'”

The FBA’s Hottest Internet Mime Report is Deliciously Invested

According to recent reports, the FBI has made a shocking discovery in the world of internet crime. Over the past year and a half, there has been a surge in fraudulent investment-themed crimes taking place online. The FBI has dubbed it the “Great Invest-Mime Crime Wave of 2021.”

The hot new trend sees cyber-criminals coercing innocent investors into putting their life savings into fake investment schemes. The investors are promised a lucrative return, but alas, all their money disappears into thin air, leaving them penniless and heartbroken.

The FBI has not yet determined what is causing the sudden surge in these types of crimes, but some experts have suggested that it could be due to lockdown-induced boredom. Others think the culprits are just looking for a new challenge.

The onset of the Great Invest-Mime Crime Wave has led to a flurry of hilarious memes and jokes on social media. “I invested my life savings into a Nigerian prince pyramid scheme and all I got was this crappy GIF,” reads one of them.

Another popular meme shows an image of a cat furiously typing on a keyboard with the caption, “When you realize that the Nigerian prince you sent all your money to is actually a cat in a fedora.”

Whether it’s because of boredom, a desire for a new challenge, or just plain old-fashioned greed, the Great Invest-Mime Crime Wave shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon. So, remember to always double-check your investments and never trust a cat in a fedora.
