Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Kaduna Zonal Directorate have arrested 28 suspected ponzi scheme operators in Minna, Niger State.

Their arrest followed credible intelligence that linked them to fraudulent investment activities with a company, Q-Net Ltd, which operates from a three bedroom apartment in Al-Bishiri Estate, Minna, Niger State.


Victims were lured to believe that the company was international with affiliates in Dubai, India, Indonesia and Thailand and made to part with between $790 to $850, amounting to N1,462,000 (One Million, Four Hundred and Sixty-two Thousand) as registration fee and for product purchases. Part of those arrested while receiving lectures on ponzi scheme operations, dressed up as โ€œnetwork marketing.โ€

Items recovered from them included Q-Net application forms and other documents. They would be charged to court as soon as investigations are concluded.

So they caught 28 people running a Ponzi scheme from a tiny apartment, but the real masterminds flying private jets are untouchable, interesting how the system works.

Good one. Instead of them to put their God given abilities into good use they decide to cause pains and agony on already poor and vulnerable people. May God frustrate them all.

Greediness is one of the major factors that make people fall into the snare of these crooks.
Why should someone ask you to deposit 1000 and collect 5000 in the space of one week?

28 suspects and 25 are Yorubas. These people have exported their nefarious ideas and fraudulent schemes to other regions. Very anyhow Agbadorian ronu terrorists.
Later their lukumi Reno will come online to tell us rubb*sh about how the lukumi omoluscabies are morally upright.

Greediness, yes, and also ignorance. Most rich people (not all) are significantly greedy. But their eye tear small. If you dey greedy, at least no dey fall for shit like ponzi, sure odds, etc in the year 2025. MMM don teach people lesson back in the day and presently, one nigger on Twitter (his handle is Lobistars) dey try fight gambling addiction and he's spreading the gospel of eye tearing.
