MMM Is Ponzi And We Will Scrap It Says SEC by Bookiemart01(f): 1:29pm On Sep 02, 2016
This is to some of us on mmm. Nigerian government will scrap it soon..


The attention of the Securities and Exchange Commission, Nigeria (“SEC”) has been drawn to the activities of an online investment scheme tagged ‘MMM Federal Republic of Nigeria (nigeria.). The platform has embarked on an aggressive online media campaign to lure the investing public to participate in what it called “mutual aid financial network” with a monthly investment return of 30%

The Commission hereby notifies the investing public that the operation of this investment scheme has no tangible business model hence it’s a PONZI SCHEME where returns are paid from other people’s invested sum. Also, its operation is not registered by the Commission.

The general public is hereby advised to distance themselves from this online scheme. Please note that anyone that subscribe to this illegal activity does so at his/her own risk.

See it this way:

"MMM is like a house full of rice. There's so much rice stored in the room such that if you eat 20 cups alone, it won't shake the rice storage.

*Remember*, before you eat, you must have contributed your own small rice amount to the the large storage.

That rice storage can never be exhausted unless everyone comes to take rice on the same day from the storage.. but in MMM this is not possible because the release date of every fund put into MMM is 2 weeks, before then more people would have deposited more rice.."


if you don't know how it works please don't discourage or scare people from making financial breakthrough.

Has SEC helped the teaming youth unemployment? Only to gather money to their bank account. MMM is not an investment nor business and no registered office. We are just community helping ourselves. You will need to enact a law stopping people from helping each other first.

They can't scrap it. Go and find out what happened in South Africa. If you are in a position where you are feeding from people deposit because you are a bank manager or Microfinance bank manager, just know that the world is changing fast and it will not be business as usual. Members of this community are here to give help to themselves so they can start meaningful good enterprise without owing a bank or individuals. You better join us.

Some people will still not hear word. Just pray you ain't the pig that will be slaughtered.

For those celebrating being paid now , nobody is denying that, and of course that is how Ponzi Scheme works, robbing Peter to pay Paul.
You can be lucky to be Paul, and if that is your case, good for you, but don't ever be greedy because programmes like this always have short life span.
In conclusion, na your money o, use am the way you feel like.Just play safe.

Nmmm Govt wanna stop this ?
You gonna stop someone from sending money to another person ? Is that possible ?
Maybe they can block the webpage from opening and Nigeria lack the host to do that.
Bank is a scam too,
I bought a shares worth of 200k since 2008. i have never receive any dividends and my worth of share now is not even up to 20,000 naira
can someone tell me, this is not a scam ?
its better i invest on mmm and risk my money within a short time (loss or gain) than to invest my money in one stupid bank that keep lying and scam you in a modern way.

Bleep govt.
everything nah risk
type business risk on google then you will understand.
either i loss or i gain.

MMM

Who is the first person that deposited the 1st Bag or 100bags of rice? The founder I guess. That is like a take off ground. Any business that is given such interest and not producing or rendering any services. Such businesses is for lazy people. We are watching closely to see the end result.
