Lagos Business Man In Court For N4.5 Million Bitcoin Investment Fraud.

December is here again, so many ponzi and scams will emerge. MBA forex is one of the biggest ponzi in Nigeria 2020 and till date Efcc is still looking for the owner. I have some friends who invested in MBA, they were happy receiving 20% ROI calling themselves investor like sabinus. When I tried to advise them about the investment, they will wave thier mou contract saying it is government approved. It turns out that the so called MOU is a forgery by MBA and is not approved by the Nigerian court. I can preach a thousand scam stories I have heard and some people will still fall for the same scam. It is better for your money to stay in your account than to pour it inside pit

Just because everybody no go succeed no me say u no go try. If you see small small children wey dey make money form NFT, you no go discourage anybody form trying. Don jazzy which day back just make $300,000 in 10 minutes from NFT. When the likes of Disney, Pepsi etc already they create their own NFT who be you to not join the trend if you get some knowledge on how to run am.

Boss for this life ehhh I go dey always dey respect you opinion because wetin you dey always yarn get enough wisdom person fit gain from, but boss make I break am, I never talk say NFTs no be the real deal and yes for sure e dey profitable, look the name you call, Pepsi and the rest these are major brand, and already has been selling for many decades so if they carry that kind influnce wen dem already get omo NFTs go now na and as for the other small children they no small at all them better innovative ideas them sell out and no be everybody they one firat the innovative ideas so go just jump inside the NFT something because they here say e dey profitable

they were happy receiving 20% ROI calling themselves investor like sabinus.

20% ROI daily, weekly, monthly or yearly? It can never be yearly though, it would be daily. Obviously scam. But, I haven't heard about this Ponzi, Ponzi is never my thing and am not up to date about Nigerians news lately.

But your topic tilte and the link you posted under it is about a man that was defrauded by possibly a trader or scammer, the man paid to the trader and the trader blocked the investor account and stop answering his calls, which would probably be after the person lost probably as a result of the recent bear market or maybe not.

“The defendant presented a business proposal of online bitcoin trade to the complainant and persuaded him to invest.

“After the defendant collected the money from the complainant, he blocked his account and refused to pick up his calls.

This is a very very common scam tactics. At times, it may or may not be intentional. I remembered few years ago when I read on Punch about a guy that told a women he knew very well about trading, the woman trusted the guy and invested. He traded and gained until the woman and her husband invested millions which later all got lost.

We should really be very careful, advising people not to fall into this type of loss. Some traders were even open, but not knowing it would result to loss and later result to loss and become court case. One of the things I can never do is to entrust my money on someone, it is not possible. I will do my thing myself or never do anything.

When it comes to investment that has 20% ROI or more, Nigerians don't joke with it. They are all ready to invest with their whole money and still borrow money to join(invest). What mads me is the way scams and Ponzi schemes is been promoted on social media by so-called influencers making their followers invest without proper research.
Nigerians are easily carried away when it comes to Ponzi schemes. That's why the majority falls easily to scam. I thought the issue of MMM has thought us a big lesson, I don't know so many people are yet to learn from the experience.

I don't think they do. The MMM Ponzi scam happened in 2017 and millions of people fall victim to it. Which I did. Since then, I swear never to get myself involved in any Ponzi scheme no matter how promising it is.
Concerning the young ones that you mention, won't they be enlightened to research before investing in any platform? People liking money are only greedy for money that why they fall victim to scams.

I no get full details on how MBA was ran but how you know Ponzi is when they mandate you bring downliners. As for MBA me I no think say na fraud, na just banks sabotage that firm. Like true true dem been dey trade and making billions but immediately e begin they get bank issue and government issued the company begin they failed. Outside county we get this kind businesses wey plenty but if them dey actually trade them no get issue.

Anybody get idea if them been they pay commission for downliners wey come motivate you to bring two people to bring two people lol.  Nigerian never frustrate your business before, if they come for you nothing you fit do. Imagine if Patricia been no run and they catch them na so dem for talk say them be fraud too.

@Marykeller

I am get you right, what I am saying is people that do not have the exposure can be scammed. It can be new people or old people but just that some new people do not have the knowledge about scam. Greed is not only cause scam to happen to someone, even someone with greed but that have the knowledge that this is a scam can avoid scam. Ponzi is easy to know, but it need knowledge. You are correct too.

MBA forex was never trading. They were taking money from A to pay B. The story of banks sabotaging them is a tale they told to remove all blame from them and make the people blame the government. I had the opportunity to be at a meeting MBA held for thier investors, MBA hired consultants to represent them and never showed for the meeting. Nothing meaningful was said by the consultants and when they couldn't answer questions from the investors. A fight broke out even the army officers MBA hired couldn't control the crowd.

Like I have once commented, I do not know much about MBA forex, but from your above post, it is like an organization that trade for people. The people are the investors. Right?

If I am getting it right, this is not new again. I got a friend that lost money this way which is as usual many people are losing money.

The scenario
Trade went good and all are happy, not a ponzi.

Trade went otherwise (bad). For the continuation of the the business, it has to become shady so the promise ROI would be paid. Then Peter's money will be paid to Paul and like that.

If trade fails the more, Ponzi can no more be going on successful, it has to fail and many investors will lose. The likely chance of success for the trading company is negligible. That is why these type of organizations are regarded as scammers.

Just my take, I do not know much about MBA.

Are nft is not risky?

If I buy nft today, can I sell it very fast?

If I buy it at 5000 naira, can I sell it at 6000 naira very fast?  if I increase the price more, will I sell it fast?

[CryptopreneurBrainboss]

If this mata come out to be like this I no go get doubt as every business for Nigeria today na Ponzi even the banks, dats why dem dey restrict withdrawing but allow deposit to any amount. Dem dey carry Paul money pay peter but in a more legal way. Well MBA just need to bring out proof of them actually trading and the whole ponzi accusations go drop. Trading no dey hard for pros dem. Dem fit make all those billions actually trading. Make we no just conclude although all possibilities dey say na Ponzi dem been dey operate.

Are nft is not risky?

Very very risky, the NFT wey legit dun already cost and I just discovered that about lands dem too as I begin research to buy land for metaverse. This ones wey cheap fit no worth anything again. That's your money fit just go. To buy NFT or land, you go need make sure the project legit and go dey around for the next minimum 5years because we go need another bull cycle for this sector to strong.  

No go invest with all your savings as nothing dey certain, just put in chicken money and if e go no problem but if e blow, ur luck. See ehh new trend go always come so no feel say you miss out. The only thing I fit advise now now to dey secure USDT as buying opportunity go present itself soon for the market.

If na like this the NFT thing easy every body go don dey blow one by one be that, it's never possible to make money so fast all because you bought NFTs like I been don talk for my previous post e no to hard to create your own NFTs collection, right now every new project wey come dey like create there own NFTs asset even some of them know sey e no go get value now or in the future, but because they want that investors money the shill it to the best of their ability, in a nut shell be careful about which NFTs you dey buy

Something I want us to talk about. I think we need to sensitize our members. That's one of the reasons I believe cryptopreneurBrainboss created this space- for us to connect and help one another. I helped one of us rank up only to find the user wearing a signature campaign that is allegedly a scam casino. I contacted this person, explained to him what awaits him if continues to wear signature and he has remove his signature. To our newbies, ask if you don't understand something. Wearing signature is cool but selling your reputation for money is not cool. Don't let ignorance get you into trouble.

This has been one of the issues we've been facing of recent where some members go create alt account come to the community dey active for some weeks to achieve some merits achieve a particular rank and went straight to promote 1xbit scam casino this was the reason I always check thoroughly before meriting a low rank members which is not suppose to so but I'm trying to know the ones with good intentions.

The local board journeys looking unrealistic day by day because majority of the actives members were all caught in plagiarism web and all got banned- meanwhile the reputable members do not even care to at least make a post here, to be honest I don't see us achieving it anytime soon. E get as the matter be na

Local board journey is just like evolutionary process, also just like a growing church, the bigger it goes, the greater the people that are committing immoralities and other type of forbidden iniquities. Just that the pastor will always speak against it just as you people are doing right now, and it is right and better.

About this thread and achieving a local board, it is an ongoing process, see us active as and more than before, this thread is getting moderated by moderators unlike before. We have gotten the recognition. We should not focus on what we will say (that we have commented on several times) and nothing is changing. I think we should focus on what will move this locale forward.

Do not let us also let it be like we need the local board a must, let it be like we are active here which which will make local board achievable. Let us forget about Nigerians that are not active here, let us respect their privacy or the reason they are not posting here. One day, they might join. But above all, I respect you all, we that are active here.

You are wrong, the reason is because I can see some people that trust each other on trust page, click on individual link and see the trust I am talking about. They may not trust each other fully, but because of what may have happen between two people on this forum like buying and sell of coins together and not cheating since, they can trust each other to some level.

Instead to teach about how trust page and trust list is work, you are saying he should not trust. You are like newbie too, you have plenty things to learn but I am knowing this now, why do you not know.
