MMM will lead to losses, Access bank warns
Access Bank Nigeria Plc has warned its customers to avoid dealing with Mavrodi Mondial Movement, a Ponzi scheme, which has been declared illegal by the Central Bank of Nigeria and the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The bank in an emailed statement to its customers said it
had come to its attention “that some customers are engaged in the Ponzi
scheme called ‘MMM’”.
“Please be advised that this scheme is not in line with any
applicable or known investment product and may ultimately lead to loss
of funds in the long run,” the bank warned.
“We advise that customers avail themselves of genuine and
approved investments and products in the Nigerian banking environment.”
Despite the warning by the Federal Government, thousands of
Nigerians have continued to patronise the scheme with its website
ranking as one of the five most visited in the country, ahead of
Facebook.
