Someone with a functional brain will know it is only wise to invest very little amount into a program like MMM Nigeria. Only a fool will invest huge amount of money at start. What if it disappears? There are so many what ifs to consider, considering the fact that the founder of MMM Global is a known Russian fraudster. I hope you guys won't ask for evidence. If you do, i wil post evidence here and anyone who reads it will NEVER want to invest in MMM again.

my advice to u Mr op is to desist from MMM. look for something else to invest ur money into, to be forewarned is to be forearm. for more info, do a research on how the business came about and who the fraudster(president of MMM) came about this business. Good luck to you.

If a fixed number of people invest 10k each, where will their profits come from?
You didn't invest in any business or product, there's no IN-COME from anywhere, yet you want to earn 30% profit?
Is it magic?
You can only pay 30% by either-
1. Adding money to your fixed number- ie as a business through a product/service you provide, or
2. Adding more people to your number- ie scam.

Re: Pls How Reliable Is MMM Nigeria by omariojake: 5:42pm On Aug 11, 2016
I like the idea behind MMM, "people helping each other out through the help of a computer system and no centralized deposit account".
The only problem I have is that people do not bother to educate themselves on risky investments. Believe it or not 'There is nothing new under the sun'. 'If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is'.

If you know the characteristics of a Ponzi scheme then you should be able to spot it or tell from a scale of 0 to 10, how much of it is a Ponzi scheme.

If you understand risky investments, you will love Ponzi schemes.

Now I'm not saying that MMM is a Ponzi scheme. It has a powerful idea powered and financed by a community of people who need what it provides 'MONEY'

I've looked at it and asked myself, how could this ever go bad........ but there is always that chance.
What if Mr. M feels that the campaign is ripe enough and decides to send a series of his own bank accounts to receive help?

Well that is not our business. All you need to know is how you can create a game plan to make the most money from MMM with the minimum amount of risk that you are able and qualified to lose.

So here we have it, a great idea for everyone. Unfortunately everyone is not rich because they usually end up losing money where a few makes it. And one last thing, there is no control(nothing you can do to increase your chances of success just like MLM).

My verdict
Know what you are putting your money into. Get some education on risky investments. Don't be surprised when you win money and don't be surprised when you lose it. Even if MMM has a solid foundation that could stand the test of time, it only takes the Government of Nigeria a second to put an end to it if they don't like it.

Hah, I almost forgot, the entry bonus and referral bonus totally killed it. I'll suggest they start doing some advertising to supplement their income. They should have some crazy traffic now.

For those interested in learning about risky investments, I am working on a site www.omariojake..com

Re: Pls How Reliable Is MMM Nigeria by joyandfaith: 7:53pm On Aug 12, 2016
MMM was established in 1989 by Sergei Mavrodi, [2] his brother Vyacheslav Mavrodi, and Olga Melnikova. The name of the company was taken from the first letters of the three founders' surnames.
Initially, the company imported computers and office equipment. In January 1992, tax police accused MMM of tax evasion , leading to the collapse of MMM-bank, and causing the company to have difficulty obtaining financing to support its operations. Faced with difficulties in funding its foreign trade, the company switched to the financial sector. It offered
American stocks to Russian investors, but met with little success. Later, MMM-Invest was created for the purpose of collecting vouchers during privatisation. This effort was similarly unsuccessful. [ citation needed ]
MMM created its successful Ponzi scheme in 1994. The company started attracting money from private investors, promising annual returns of up to one thousand percent. It is unclear whether a Ponzi scheme was Mavrodi's initial intention, inasmuch as such extravagant returns might have been possible during the Russian hyperinflation in such commerce as import-export. [ citation needed ]
MMM grew rapidly. In February 1994, the company reported dividends of 1,000%, and started an aggressive TV ad campaign. Since the shares were not quoted on any stock exchange and the company itself determined the share price, it maintained a steady price growth of thousands of percent annually, leading the public to believe its shares were a safe and profitable investment. [ citation needed ]
An important factor in the scheme's success was word of mouth, but most of the company's success came from its extremely aggressive ad campaign, which appealed to the general public by using "ordinary" characters that viewers could identify with. The most famous of them, a "folk hero" of early 1994, was Lyonya Golubkov . Another notable marketing effort was a giveaway of free Metro trips to all Moscow citizens on a particular day. MMM also was one of the first well-known companies in Russia with a logotype and slogans ("Flying from shadow to the light" and others). [ citation needed ]
At its peak the company was taking in more than 100 billion rubles (about 50 million USD) each day from the sale of its shares to the public. Thus, the cashflow turnover at the MMM central office in Moscow was so high that it could not be estimated. The management started to count money in roomfuls (1 roomful of money, 2 roomfuls of money, etc.). [ citation needed ]
Regular publication in the media of the rising MMM share price led President Boris Yeltsin to issue a decree in June 1994 prohibiting financial institutions from publicising their expected income. [ citation needed ]
The success of MMM in attracting investors led to the creation of other similar companies, including Tibet, Chara , Khoper-Invest , Selenga, Telemarket , and Germes . All of these companies were characterised by aggressive television advertising and extremely high promised rates of return. One company promised annual returns of 30,000%. [ citation needed ]
On July 22, 1994, the police closed the offices of MMM for tax evasion. For a few days the company attempted to continue the scheme, but soon ceased operations. At that point, Invest-Consulting, one of the company's subsidiaries, owed more than 50 billion rubles in taxes (USD 26 million), and MMM itself owed between 100 billion and 3 trillion rubles to the investors (from USD 50 million to USD 1.5 billion). In the aftermath at least 50 investors, having lost all of their money, committed suicide . [ citation needed ]
Several organisations of "deceived investors" made efforts to recover their lost investments, but Sergei Mavrodi manipulated their indignation and directed it at the government. In August 1994 Mavrodi was arrested for tax evasion. However, he was soon elected to the Russian State Duma , with the support of the "deceived investors". He argued that the government, not MMM, was responsible for people losing their money, and promised to initiate a pay-back program. The amount ultimately paid back was minuscule compared to the amount owed. [ citation needed ]
In October 1995, the Duma cancelled Mavrodi's right to immunity as a deputy. In 1996, he tried to run for Russia's presidency, but most of the signatures he received were rejected. MMM declared bankruptcy on September 22, 1997. [ citation needed ]
While it was believed that Sergei Mavrodi left Russia and moved to the United States , it is possible that he stayed in Moscow, using his money to change apartments regularly and employ a group of former special agents. With the help of a distant relative he started Stock Generation Ltd., another pyramid scheme based around trading non-existent companies' stocks in a form of the "stock exchange game" on the company's site, stockgeneration.com. Despite a bold-letter warning on the main page that the site was not a real stock exchange, between 20,000 and 275,000 people, according to various estimates, fell for the promised 200% returns and lost their money. According to U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission , losses of victims were at least USD 5.5 million. [ citation needed ]
Mavrodi was found and arrested in 2003. While in custody, Mavrodi was given until January 31, 2006 to read the documents in his fraud case against him (The criminal case consisted of 650 volumes, each 250-270 pages long). [ citation needed ] At the end of April 2007, Mavrodi was convicted of fraud, and given a sentence of four and a half years. Since he had already spent over four years in custody, he was released less than a month later, on May 22, 2007. [ citation needed ] He later went on to creating yet another pyramid scheme called MMM-2011 .
The MMM scandal led to increased regulation of the Russian stock market, but the legacy of the fraud led many to become extremely suspicious of any joint stock companies.
In 2015 MMM began operating in South Africa with the same business model as MMM-2011, claiming a "30% per month" return through a "social financial network". [3] The group was identified as a possible pyramid scheme by the National Consumer Commission and accounts of clients were later frozen by Capitec Bank . [4] In response to mounting criticism and official investigations by state authorities in 2016 supporters of the South African MMM scheme staged a protest march in Johannesburg. [5]
In 2016, MMM launched a website targeting the Nigerian audience. [
