I actually invest but in 'good' stuff. Illegal activity's are never really good imo. You'll get caught sooner or later anyway ( most of the time ).
Instead try and find something new to put on the market. What about investing into APP developers? Mobile apps are the future and you can get easy money from that.
Etc etc

They last for a short time, everytime. I used to make malwares for profit couple of years ago, although the money was good I was uncomfortable doing it. My friend was visited by undercover officers because of stuff like this and he was earning a LOT, but he was lucky to get away with a warning most aren't. We think they aren't watching but they are smarter.
One of my HC friend was doing Zeus stuff on his server he was offered like 3k$ just to run his servers every month by pro blackhatters, but even he gave up doing it eventually. Another story, a carding website turned out to be an undercover fbi site and many blackhatters were caught in it.
Of course theres less chances for getting caught in stuff like starting a warez site, but whats the point? Such sites are just garbage and dumping ground for spammers. Search engines don't take it as a quality site (especially with the new google's updates) and thus you don't get enough visitors, even if you get visitors they are not going to be quality visitors since the content itself is garbage. In 99% of the cases i've never seen a Warez site gain a traffic rank below 8000, even if they do, there are going to be lawsuits up the ass in the long run.
Theres tons of advantages in starting something useful with quality content, everyone - the advertisers, search engines, visitors love it. The illegal stuff is just not worth it imo.
