Investment / Millions Of Nigerians Are Falling For A 27-year Old Russian Ponzi Scheme by AfroBlue(m): 12:59am On Nov 19, 2016

Millions of Nigerians are falling for a 27-year old Russian Ponzi scheme

Paper chase. (Reuters/Akintunde Akinleye)

Nigeria’s economic downturn is proving fertile ground for a decades-old Russian Ponzi scheme to thrive.
Fallen on difficult times amid the country’s first recession in decades, millions of Nigerians have turned to Mavrodi Mondial Moneybox (MMM), a Ponzi scheme with roots in Russia, which promises unreasonably high returns on investments. Originally set up in the late 1980s by Sergei Mavrodi, a Russian ex-convict, the scheme has become popular in Nigeria where it has operated for a year.

According to the Nigerian website, MMM is described as a “mutual aid fund where ordinary people help each other.” Essentially, registered participants pledge and donate money to help other participants who request it and expect them to return the favor at a later date. As a catch, the scheme promises 30% monthly returns for participants who donate. Put another way, a participant who donates money is eligible to request for the amount donated plus 30% interest after a month. That request is then fulfilled by another participant.

An MMM participant who donates money is eligible to request for the amount donated plus 30% interest after a month.

Lagos-based economist, Tunji Andrews, likens it to a game of musical chairs. “Mr. A lends help to Mr. B, hoping that Mr. C pays him his own help before it crashes,” Andrews tell Quartz. “Now, knowing that it eventually will, every single payout, is paid for by those who get caught in, when the music stops.”
It seems a fairly obvious ruse. The website even states a warning: “There are no guarantees and promises! Neither explicit nor implicit,” it reads. “And in general, you can lose all your money.” But that hasn’t stopped the 2.4 million Nigerians who are registered from participating.
A recipe for disaster

For much of the past year, Nigeria has been stuck in a rot. Its economy, once regarded as one of the world’s fastest growing, is mired in a recession that shows no signs of abating. IMF forecasts the economy to contract by -1.7% this year. Inflation has also hit an 11-year high with prices of goods inching up every month. As a result, times are incredibly difficult for many Nigerians. With investors pulling out and businesses shutting up shop, unemployment is also an urgent problem.

A recent recruitment drive by a government agency helps put Nigeria’s unemployment problem in context. Advertising for only 500 positions, Nigeria’s federal tax agency received 700,000 applications—2,000 of which were by graduates with first class honors degrees. Similarly, in February, the Nigerian Police Force received almost a million applications for 10,000 listed positions.

“The government can say what they like. If they can’t assist us, they should leave us alone” —MMM participant.

With millions of unemployed people seeking means of livelihood, a scheme which promises high returns has appeared to be a beacon of hope. The government admits this much. Saheed Fijabi, a federal lawmaker, says MMM is leveraging “the high level of unemployment and poverty to deceive unwary Nigerians.” The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has also warned Nigerians to be careful about committing money to “fraudsters” promising high returns at a time when “the economy has suffered some decline.” But such warnings have irked MMM participants who accuse authorities of having ulterior motives.

Ogadi Ngozi, a highly ranked MMM participant based in Delta state, in southern Nigeria, says the authorities only disapprove of MMM because the scheme is costing local banks some customers. “Nobody goes to the banks for loans anymore,” Ogazi tells Quartz. “Why go there and collect loans at outrageous interest rates when you can help one or two persons in MMM and be smiling with a 30% reward?” Ogazi also insists participants are aware of “participating at their own risk.”
Given the tough economic woes, MMM participants staunchly defend their involvement in the scheme citing the government’s inability so far to make life better for Nigerians. And that reality is making the scheme even more popular as, at the time of writing, rankings by Alexa, a web traffic data and analytics company, show MMM’s websites are the fifth and 14th most visited in Nigeria, only behind Google’s global and Nigerian sites, YouTube, Yahoo but ahead of Facebook. Julie, a Lagos-based participant, plans to continue to risk her money despite the government’s warning. “The government can say what they like. If they can’t assist us, they should leave us alone.”

This evil spirit has been responsible for not only tearing down churches, pastors, and different Christian ministries, but it has also been responsible for breaking up many marriages, friendships, companies, along with getting many people to commit cold-blooded murders and suicides.

More Russian officials detained as nationwide anti-corruption drive gains momentum

Published time: 16 Nov, 2016 16:32

Russian law enforcement has launched criminal investigations targeting several high-ranking regional officials with charges including embezzlement, theft, bribery, and extortion.
The main news of the week was the arrest of Russian Minister of Economic Development Aleksey Ulyukayev for allegedly accepting a $2 million bribe, but more investigations have been initiated all over the country in just the last two days.

The Federal Security Service has arrested two deputies to the governor of central Russia’s Kemerovo Region, Aleksey Ivanov and Aleksandr Danilchenko, on charges of extorting a 51-percent stake in a coal mining company from a local businessman. The media estimated the minimum price of the securities in question to be about 1 billion rubles, or well over $15 million. Besides the two deputy governors, FSB operatives also detained a group of agents working in the regional directorate of the Investigative Committee – a Russian federal agency responsible for pursuing especially important crimes – including the head of its investigative department. They all have been charged with complicity in extortion.

In Moscow, the Investigative Committee arrested a former deputy governor of St. Petersburg, Russia’s second largest city, and launched a criminal investigation into large-scale embezzlement of state funds that had been allocated for the construction of a football stadium. Investigators have told reporters that the suspect, Marat Oganesyan, allegedly arranged for a friendly company to win the tender to supply a special screen for the stadium and received an advance payment of over 50 million rubles (about $770 000) that was later laundered through shell companies and stolen. Oganesyan is currently in custody and awaiting transfer to St. Petersburg, where he will be investigated and tried.

On Wednesday the Investigative Committee reported that it had also opened a criminal case against the mayor of the central Russian city of Pereslavl-Zalessky, Dmitry Koshurnikov, who is suspected of large-scale misuse of funds belonging to the state hi-tech corporation Rusnano through the local pharmaceutical firm NT-Pharma. Several senior managers of NT Pharma have also become suspects in this case.

Also on Wednesday, Interior Ministry officers searched the office of the director of the state property agency for the republic of North Ossetia, Alan Tsabiyev, who is suspected of abusing his office and committing large-scale theft in 2013 during the privatization of land plots belonging to one state-owned enterprise. Tsabiyev has been placed under house arrest.
