I know fans of pyramids and network
marketing are going to yell for my head but sometimes the truth has to be told.
Can it be possible that Sergey Mavrodi set up a website to help people make
money for free? That is highly unlikely but how does he then cash in seeing he
only "facilitates" people helping each other?
1. Mavrodi set up a website then built
a team using people who are bought into the idea of easy money. Just how many
the people in his team are depends on his target reach in terms of money. Maybe
1000 spread across small business people and simple people who know the
streets. These are the people who cash out of the system.
2. He then marked these people with
special accounts (super users) only he can see at the back end of the website.
He can top up their MMM accounts with non-existent money balances to allow them
to withdraw bigger amounts e.g. someone gets R25,000 on their account without
putting a cent. They
provide help to another of their inner circle. Meaning this person is due R25,000
plus interest of 30%.
3. The owner of the scheme has insight
into everything while the people have no information whatsoever. If you go to
the Facebook page of MMM you can identify some of these super users assuring
restive members that they must be patient. Think about this, it's easy to put
money into it but when it comes your turn to get something out you must wait in
a long queue.
