That is why phone numbers are displayed for you to call before you make any payment.
And how do you know if it's the phone number of an agent?

I have warned my friends who have tried to persuade into MMM and I bluntly say 'NO!'

MMM is a fraud. What kind of blind investment gives U 30percent of Ur savings monthly?...Even banks who have better investment networks can never dare such huge percentage...

Let him that have hear; let him hear. They say if a word is enough for the wise, then a thousand words should be enough for the foolish...

Which one is MMM again? I keep seeing it all over nairaland but on further inspection find out it's actually an MLM scheme. Almost every commenter on this forum knows those're scams na. Those not in the know can always read up cautionary tales from posters duped in the past.
If after all is said and done a poster wants to stubbornly go into the business/scheme they have only themselves to blame.

I saw the current MMM advertised by a friend sometime back and I quickly waved it off as a scam as with the HYIP and other ponzi schemes.

https://www.nairaland.com/3321916/sec-warns-nigerians-dangers-mmm

Given this topic that was on the front page today, I saw some comments by people and it was noted that ''There is no pool of money with the current MMM and therefore they can't run away''.

Given the nature of their business, with no investments and the fact that they have put in resources in place to allow for this trade to happen, it is pertinent that one day or another, they will close down, and they won't go through that stress without duping people of their money. Seeing the topic today, I had to register and checkout how the model works , and also brainstorm on the eventual way the MMM operators will dupe those that are in the system.

I am giving a scenario here and though it may not play out the same way, there should be no denying the fact that one day - which i wll term as ''the day of reckoning''. the MMM site will shut operations and will try to make as much as possible from your funds before that.



Now here is the scenario. As there is no pool as someone rightly said, I registered and saw the mode of operation. It is worthy of note that the same MMM site runs in several countries:-

Nigeria
South Africa
India
Colombia
Turkey


So from my postulation, the fold-up will happen in a month - The month of reckoning-- across all MMM sites on that month because anything short of that will send panic to other countries and they won't maximize.

The scenario i see playing out is that the handlers will have bank accounts or agents in all countries of operations and in the month of reckoning, as there is no pool of money, all the ''get help'' requests will be paused - Not paused perse, but no ''get help'' request will go through and will be pending as they won't publish it.

Now the ''Provide help'' will be allowed to work, but the account shown will be that of the handlers of the site (or their agents) and people will keep providing help, but it goes to the scam account. Now this will go on for a month as you have to wait for a month to use your Mavro. The first people that will notice the scam will be the ''Get help'' People as they will keep waiting, but no help will come. Then ''Provide help'' people will come to know after a while and they MMM people will release a statement saying the ''business model experiment failed and they are shutting down''

Be wise Nigerians....

Alternative views and constructive arguments are welcome






You're even postponing the evil day.

I think MMM agents are currently pulling out people fund everyday and asking the downline participants to pay their creditors.

It'll come crashing when the government intervenes or other factors as you listed them

Are you serious I provided help of 100k but at a point I just went back to the site and deleted it because I thought about the MMM thing but didn't make sense out of it.

MMM will end when online and offline articles like this begin to circulate and spread panic around hence discouraging more people from joining the scheme.

These kind of schemes thrive on what I will call goodwill and once many people begin to speak against the program as is happening now, it is most likely heading for a crash.

A word is enough for the wise.

No...all these investment schemes have a timeline. They now out when the inflow is at its peak.

It can only be delayed but it will surely happen

They've been doing such Aeons ago and now they remember Nigerians to be their next prey! They're big time Scammers! This info thus fact is based on research do yours before venting out your decision am only giving you friends this suggestions so that your actions won't be that of: had I know perhaps had I listen to candid infos from friends even of those that I don't know in person!

SEC my ass, when they allowed chemist to sell ipo to ignorant Nigerians as pharmaceutical companies n we lost our monies what did they do, Nothing. When transcorp scamed Nigerians what did they do. Nothing now they are here saying they are protecting who, who em elp. MMM wld only fail if more Nigerian don't join n we r making sure people provide help. The aim of mavrodi is simply he hates the banks and the fact they don't help the common man so why keep ur money in the bank when you can turn it around. The rich will make sure mmm don't work cos they still want you to remain loyal as for me and my friends it's mmm all the way. Join me and become financially free.
