Yeah, I quite agree with you.
I have provided and received help on the scheme.
Still I know many will rush blindly into it without taking time to read the handwriting on the wall. SPARE MONEY not your expected salary.
So as to avoid stories that touch the heart

I recently joined the scheme and was interested in doing a background check. What I found was a bit disturbing.



This is what Wikipedia has to say

МММ was a Russian company that perpetrated one of the world's largest Ponzi schemes of all time, in the 1990s. By different estimates from 5 to 40 million people lost up to $10 billion. The exact figures are not known even to the founders.

History
MMM was established in 1989 by Sergei Mavrodi,[2] his brother Vyacheslav Mavrodi, and Olga Melnikova. The name of the company was taken from the first letters of the three founders' surnames.

Initially, the company imported computers and office equipment. In January 1992, tax police accused MMM of tax evasion, leading to the collapse of MMM-bank, and causing the company to have difficulty obtaining financing to support its operations. Faced with difficulties in funding its foreign trade, the company switched to the financial sector. It offered American stocks to Russian investors, but met with little success. Later, MMM-Invest was created for the purpose of collecting vouchers during privatisation. This effort was similarly unsuccessful.

MMM created its successful Ponzi scheme in 1994. The company started attracting money from private investors, promising annual returns of up to one thousand percent. It is unclear whether a Ponzi scheme was Mavrodi's initial intention, inasmuch as such extravagant returns might have been possible during the Russian hyperinflation in such commerce as import-export.[citation needed]

MMM grew rapidly. In February 1994, the company reported dividends of 1,000%, and started an aggressive TV ad campaign. Since the shares were not quoted on any stock exchange and the company itself determined the share price, it maintained a steady price growth of thousands of percent annually, leading the public to believe its shares were a safe and profitable investment.

An important factor in the scheme's success was word of mouth, but most of the company's success came from its extremely aggressive ad campaign, which appealed to the general public by using "ordinary" characters that viewers could identify with. The most famous of them, a "folk hero" of early 1994, was Lyonya Golubkov. Another notable marketing effort was a giveaway of free Metro trips to all Moscow citizens on a particular day. MMM also was one of the first well-known companies in Russia with a logotype and slogans ("Flying from shadow to the light" and others).

At its peak the company was taking in more than 100 billion rubles (about 50 million USD) each day from the sale of its shares to the public. Thus, the cashflow turnover at the MMM central office in Moscow was so high that it could not be estimated. The management started to count money in roomfuls (1 roomful of money, 2 roomfuls of money, etc.).

Regular publication in the media of the rising MMM share price led President Boris Yeltsin to issue a decree in June 1994 prohibiting financial institutions from publicising their expected income.

The success of MMM in attracting investors led to the creation of other similar companies, including Tibet, Chara, Khoper-Invest, Selenga, Telemarket, and Germes. All of these companies were characterised by aggressive television advertising and extremely high promised rates of return. One company promised annual returns of 30,000%.

On July 22, 1994, the police closed the offices of MMM for tax evasion. For a few days the company attempted to continue the scheme, but soon ceased operations. At that point, Invest-Consulting, one of the company's subsidiaries, owed more than 50 billion rubles in taxes (USD 26 million), and MMM itself owed between 100 billion and 3 trillion rubles to the investors (from USD 50 million to USD 1.5 billion). In the aftermath at least 50 investors, having lost all of their money, committed suicide.

Several organisations of "deceived investors" made efforts to recover their lost investments, but Sergei Mavrodi manipulated their indignation and directed it at the government. In August 1994 Mavrodi was arrested for tax evasion. However, he was soon elected to the Russian State Duma, with the support of the "deceived investors". He argued that the government, not MMM, was responsible for people losing their money, and promised to initiate a pay-back program. The amount ultimately paid back was minuscule compared to the amount owed.

In October 1995, the Duma cancelled Mavrodi's right to immunity as a deputy. In 1996, he tried to run for Russia's presidency, but most of the signatures he received were rejected. MMM declared bankruptcy on September 22, 1997.

While it was believed that Sergei Mavrodi left Russia and moved to the United States, it is possible that he stayed in Moscow, using his money to change apartments regularly and employ a group of former special agents. With the help of a distant relative he started Stock Generation Ltd., another pyramid scheme based around trading non-existent companies' stocks in a form of the "stock exchange game" on the company's site, stockgeneration.com. Despite a bold-letter warning on the main page that the site was not a real stock exchange, between 20,000 and 275,000 people, according to various estimates, fell for the promised 200% returns and lost their money. According to U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, losses of victims were at least USD 5.5 million.

Mavrodi was found and arrested in 2003. While in custody, Mavrodi was given until January 31, 2006 to read the documents in his fraud case against him (The criminal case consisted of 650 volumes, each 250-270 pages long).[citation needed] At the end of April 2007, Mavrodi was convicted of fraud, and given a sentence of four and a half years. Since he had already spent over four years in custody, he was released less than a month later, on May 22, 2007. He later went on to creating yet another pyramid scheme called MMM-2011.

The MMM scandal led to increased regulation of the Russian stock market, but the legacy of the fraud led many to become extremely suspicious of any joint stock companies.

In 2015 MMM began operating in South Africa with the same business model as MMM-2011, claiming a "30% per month" return through a "social financial network".[3] The group was identified as a possible pyramid scheme by the National Consumer Commission and accounts of clients were later frozen by Capitec Bank.[4] In response to mounting criticism and official investigations by state authorities in 2016 supporters of the South African MMM scheme staged a protest march in Johannesburg.[5]

In 2016, MMM launched a website targeting the Nigerian audience

Bros,
pls forget about suicide. I've been through quite a couple of things myself and many times I thought of ending it all. But that is taking the escapist route. Since you said you are a Christian, 90% of your challenges have been solved. Please note the following:
1. Your challenges are not peculiar to you. Several people in this country and in the world have the similar problems...I call them challenges.
2. While some will go down with it, some will rise above it and make a success of their lives. This is your own journey and you can choose to sit down crying about how life is unfair to you or you can stand up and make up you mind to win.
3. Confess God's word to yourself about excellence, prosperity, increase and more...you can get books on these.
4. Get and read the stories of others who had similar challenges like you. Read how terrible their cases were and learn from their determination. You can google the story of Lester Brown, Abraham Lincoln, and some great men of God and even societal leaders. Many of the great people we know today went through hell to rise.
5. I will like to end here that you must promise yourself one thing, never, ever to give up on yourself or on God, no matter what happens, and promise never to quit.

A special note:
I went to university without expecting any allowances from home and I spent four years with minimal help from home. I worked all through my undergraduate days. I was a business man. Please try do something, no matter how small.
Finally, it's a smart thing you cried out for help and didn't die in silence. It's not so bad as it looks.
Cheers.

I'm Yoruba, but I've gone East and I've eaten Northern soup. If I will list the the most popular Nigerian soups, I will put Egusi first. It exists in many variations but I know everyone eats it.
Next I will choose Ogbono because I knew of it even before I ever saw it. it is highly popular from what I know.
Then Edikang Ikong.
but that Oha na missed call o. No even talk am. I no even sabi how it looks like...

It's simple mathematics
We always tend to practice what we see everyday.
You watch a film (Nollywood, Hollywood, Gollywood, Bollywood, Anywood...)
And here you are, not married but active
You find yourself in a similar scene, everything is set, except that the context is not ver right
What do you do, you go headlong, without even wishing to do what you are doing.
Ladies, so sorry for the embarrassments. our men ought to get married and stick to their one wife,
But money no gree make man marry and fine girl come his house and talking private and flirting, all in the name of maturity and exposure
I'm sorry, so sorry, rape will happen
You are in the house, song is about night out and sex, u both sit and watch a film full of kisses and sex, and everything is set for the act, what do u expect

My Solution:
Films
Songs
Books and more are doing more harm than good.
I'm a psychologist, so I know: ask Albert Bandura

Also, ladies, plsssss, stop tempting men and assuming they will look away or merely laugh it off, especially your friend-zones (smh)

In 1923, nine of the wealthiest people in the world met at Chicago's Edge Water Beach Hotel. Their combined wealth, it is estimated, exceeded the wealth of the Government of the United States at that time. These men certainly knew how to make a living and accumulate wealth. Attending the meeting were the following men:
1. The president of the largest steel company;
2. The president of the largest utility company;
3. The president of the largest gas company;
4. The president of the New York Stock Exchange;
5. The president of the Bank of International Settlements;
6. The greatest Wheat Speculator;
7. The greatest "bear" on Wall Street;
8. The head of the World's greatest monopoly, and
9. A member of President Harding's cabinet.
That's a pretty impressive line-up of people by anyone's yardstick. Yet, 25 years later, where were those nine industrial giants?

Let’s examine what happened to them 25 years later:
1. The president of the then largest steel company (Bethlehem Steel Corp), Charles M Schwab, lived on borrowed capital for five years before he died bankrupt;
2. The president of the then largest gas company, Howard Hubson, went insane;
3. One of the greatest commodity traders (Wheat Speculator), Arthur Cutten, died insolvent;
4. Then president of the New York Stock Exchange, Richard Whitney, was sent to jail;
5. The member of US President Harding's cabinet, Albert Fall, was pardoned from jail just to be able to go home and die in peace;
6. The greatest “bear” on Wall Street, Jesse Livermore committed suicide;
7. The president of the then world’s greatest monopoly, Ivar Krueger, also killed himself;
8. The president of the Bank of International Settlement, Leon Fraser, equally took his own life;
9. The president of the largest utility company, Samuel Insull, died penniless.

What those people forgot was how to "make life” while they got busy making money! Money in itself is not evil; it provides food for the hungry, medicine for the sick, clothes for the needy. However, money is only a medium of exchange. We need two kinds of education: One that teaches us how to make a living and another that teaches us how to live. There are many of us who are so engrossed in our professional life that we neglect our family, health and social responsibilities. If asked why we do this, we would reply that "we are doing it for our family". Yet, our kids are sleeping when we leave home. And they are sleeping when we come back home! Twenty years later, we’ll turn back, and they’ll all be gone, to pursue their own dreams and their own lives.
Without water, a ship cannot move. But if the water gets into the ship, the ship will face disaster. What was once productive for the ship now becomes destructive. Similarly, we live in a time where earning is a necessity but let it not enter our hearts, so that what was once a means of living may not become a means of destruction for us as well.
So take a moment and ask yourself: "Has the water entered my ship?"
