About this scam

MMM Global is a Ponzi scheme originating in Russia that has targeted victims across Africa, Asia, and South America. Originally created by Sergei Mavrodi in the 1990s, the scheme was relaunched online, promising returns of 30% per month through "mutual aid" contributions. The platform has repeatedly collapsed and relaunched, with millions of victims globally.
