The story was told on X by Iveomachukwu, who said the N2 million was split into four tranches and sent to people generated from the MMM system.
However, just two hours later, they heard that the MMM website was already showing signs of failure.
Iveomachukwu said:
“My brother’s then GF now wife and I tried MMM with 2M naira – we split the money into 500k using 4 different accounts that we generated for the Ponzi scheme, we payed the people that were in line to be credited and they got their money. After about 3 hours, the site crashed.”

Iveomachukwu said it took the grace of God for them to survive the trauma caused by the failure of MMM.
She said:
“It took the grace of God for us not to run mad. That was the day I swore that no matter how tempting something is, if it involves stupid risks, I’m never taking it. Even if it’s invest 5k and get 5M, I won’t do. I’d rather eat shawarma with that money.”
