Participants of Nigeria’s number 1 Ponzi scheme, MMM Nigeria, can now heave a sigh of relief, as their Mavrodi Mondial Moneybox (MMM) in Nigeria, on Friday, announced that it is now open for business.
MMM had announced its ‘freeze’ to its over three million subscribers in mid-December 2016, promising to resume on Saturday, January 14, 2017.
But it surprised its participants by unexpectedly resuming a day earlier, Friday, January 13, 2017.
The update was accompanied by a press statement, where the administrators explained why they are back before the due date.
“We are now open!!! Dear members, the holidays are over, and we’re now open. Just as promised.
“You might have already noticed that we always stick to our promises. Actually, we promised to be open on January 14, but we’re open now, January 13, as you can see, which is a day earlier.
“Well, I hope, the members of the System will forgive us for that.
“It’s related to the hysteria raised by the authorities and the mass media around MMM. By joining forces, they’ve managed to nearly give the members of the System a heart attack, and have frightened them out of their wits.
“Poor souls don”t know what to expect.
