The Ponzi scheme, which froze
participants’ accounts for a month, was scheduled to return on January 14,
2017, but returned at about 11 am on January 13, 2017.
In a statement announcing its return, MMM said it was
setting a limit on daily withdrawals, in order to control panic withdrawals.
“The holidays are over, and we’re now open. Just as
promised. (You might have already noticed that we always stick to our promises),”
Sergey Mavrodi, MMM founder, said via the statement.
“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. Will we open again
or not? This is why we’ve decided, considering the situation, to reach out to
the members, reassure and cheer them up by opening a little earlier.”
Citing panic withdrawals as a reason, MMM Nigeria said
payments would take a few days. It called on the media to “leave the scheme
alone”.
“As of this notice, MMM resumes its usual operation. You
can now create your GH-requests. However, it’s obvious that panic will reign in
the first few days after the re-opening of the System. We’re likely to be
deluged by GH-requests.
“Therefore, we’re going to make gradual paybacks by
setting internal output limits. In other words, we will only pay a certain
amount per day. Please, be prepared to wait for a couple of days. We are
certain things will then calm down, and the System operation will return to
normal.
“We’re the ones setting the limits, so it’s completely
under our control, and we are not expecting any emergencies in principle. Have
no fear and go on about your business as usual.
“As the System is socially oriented, we will make
paybacks to the poor and the economically disadvantaged in the first place: it
means to the members with small PH amounts.
“The richer can wait. Moreover, we’ve warned you
repeatedly to only provide help with amounts that are not critical for you.
Therefore, if these large amounts are not critical for them (the richer), they
can wait a few days. No need to be tragic about it.
“This is the way it’s going to be. I’d like again
to call on the authorities and the mass media: Please, leave us alone! Have
mercy on people.”
During the break, MMM Nigeria introduced the world’s best performing currency, bitcoin, as a means of payment to those who
invested in the scheme through a bitcoin wallet.
