360 Agric, Cititrust Holding, 58 others as EFCC reveals illegal Ponzi scheme operators in Nigeria [Full List]

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Tuesday issued a public alert on no fewer than 60 companies operating illegal Ponzi schemes across Nigeria.

Ponzi schemes are fraudulent investment operations that promise big profits with little risk.

They use money from new investors to pay off earlier ones, making it seem like the business is successful. However, once new investments stop, the scheme collapses, and most people lose their money.

The anti-graft agency stated that these entities posing as investment platforms have been defrauding unsuspecting Nigerians of their funds.

According to the EFCC, neither the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) nor the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has accredited them.

The two regulators, in separate correspondences with the EFCC, denied that they are registered with them.

“The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, hereby alerts Nigerians on the operations of 58 companies posturing as investing entities and defrauding innocent Nigerians of their hard-earned money.

The companies are neither registered with the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, nor the Security Exchange Commission, SEC. The two regulators, in separate correspondences with the EFCC, denied that they are registered with them,” the statement read.

The Commission has charged many of the companies to court, with five of them convicted, another five pleaded guilty but awaiting review of facts while the rest are pending arraignment.
