EFCC Warns Public About 58 Illegal Ponzi Scheme Operators (list) by Islie(op): 9:09pm On Mar 11, 2025
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has issued a public alert regarding the activities of 58 companies allegedly operating illegal Ponzi schemes across Nigeria.

In a statement on Tuesday, on its verified Facebook account, the anti-graft agency warned that these companies pose as investment entities but are defrauding unsuspecting Nigerians of their hard-earned money. The EFCC noted that the firms are neither registered with the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) nor the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

According to the EFCC, both regulatory bodies confirmed in separate correspondences that the companies lack the required registration to operate as legitimate investment firms.

The Commission has charged many of these companies to court. Five have already been convicted, another five have pleaded guilty but are awaiting a review of facts, while the rest are pending arraignment,” the EFCC stated.

The EFCC named the following firms among those engaging in illegal financial activities:

Wales Kingdom Capital

Bethseida Group of Companies

AQM Capital Limited

Titan Multibusiness Investment Limited

Brickwall Global Investment Limited


Farmforte Limited & Agro Partnership Tech

Green Eagles Agribusiness Solution Limited

Richfield Multiconcepts Limited

Forte Asset Management Limited

Letsfarm Integrated Services

Bara Finance & Investment Limited


Vicampro Farms Limited

Brooks Network Limited

Gas Station Supply Services Limited

Brass & Books Limited

Crowdyvest Limited


Jadek Agro Connect Limited

Adeeva Capital Limited

Oxford International Group and Oxford Gold Integrated

MBA Trading & Capital Investment Limited


TRJ Company Limited

Farm4Me Agriculture Limited

Quintessential Investment Company

Rockstar Establishment Limited

SU Global Investment


Citi Trust Funding PLC

Farm Buddy

Eatrich 369 Farms & Food

Farm Sponsors Limited

Cititrust Credit Limited


Farmfunded Agroservices Limited

Chinmark Homes & Shelters Limited

Ovaioza Farm Produce Storage Limited

Requid Technologies Limited

Crowd One Investment


Farmkart Foods Limited

Holibiz Finance Limited

Ifeanyi Okpe Oil & Gas Services

Barrick Gold Mining Company

360 Agric Partners Limited


The EFCC reiterated its commitment to safeguarding the financial space by closely monitoring economic activities and taking legal action against fraudulent entities. It urged Nigerians to exercise caution before investing in any financial schemes and to verify the legitimacy of investment firms through appropriate regulatory bodies.

The Commission assured the public of its continued vigilance to protect citizens from financial fraud and stimulate growth in Nigeria’s economy.

I can't forget in 2020 or 2021 when I was a victim of one of these guys, Obaforex who would promise investors 25% ROI for 12 months. Someone introduced me to the scheme and it looked promising.

They stopped paying after the first two months I invested, mind you, a friend that introduced me has collected well over 12 months ROI, one of the reasons I trusted them.

Then, they would tell us they were having some financial issues promising to settle all their investors when they sort their issues. They even had a TG group where they would update us on recent happenings, people would lament, curse, threaten them but everything died a natural death when after months nothing was forthcoming, we had to accept our fate as these guys went into oblivion before our eyes.

What I have noticed about being duped is that one must have shown a certain level of greediness before you can be deceived into committing financial mistakes. These fraudsters come with very juicy, surreal offers that make one's brain stop thinking altogether, before you know what is happening, the deed has been done.

Where's APC on that list?.... Nobody has scammed me more than APC has done in the last 3 years. Yes I lost money to ponzi schemes, but I lost my life in this APCs regime. I am not living my dream life in other words am a walking dead. I have come to understand that I am immortal, not APC or any other ponzi schemes can do anything again.

Let me use this opportunity to report Virtuegold Investment Limited a ponzi scheme company located at Rumuosi junction, East/West Road in Port Harcourt the said fraudulent company absconded with millions of naira belonging to poor citizens since last year.

The said company was headed by one chijioke whose surname I can't remember at this time.


Before this week runs out I will visit the Efcc Port Harcourt zonal office to lay a proper complaint. Then, I will gather the necessary documents and the names of directors of the said fraudulent company.
