Hi guys,beautiful morning to you all, yesterday i had some conversations that reminded me of my ponzi scheme experience and I decided to share it with you guys.

That reminds me I heard ponzi scheme is back again @druids, @etemi, @afolwalex @empato365, @sistem and some others i can't really remember now where all talking about it in the yesterday in the spaceforce group.

Last year's ponzi scheme adoption by many was an open door to some and also a cause to regret.

Yea, am among those that regretted because i invested and got nothing.

So even while others were crying and cursing the site (hahahahahahahaha) some were rejoicing and thanking God for financial breakthrough they experienced as a result of that.

But then i wonder why my own case was different???

Where my village people really after me???

Perhaps the scheme wasn't meant for me.

It was just last night i was chatting with HOD @mhizsophie about her own experience, luckily for her despite the fact that she lost up to 500k, she could still attest to the fact that she gained more in the scheme.

The scheme is always sweeter when what you lost is also from the profit you made on it already.

Funny enough she even mentioned different Schemes that i never even knew they were in existence, if not maybe I would have invested in them and lost.

I could remember then that some persons were very skeptical about this due to religious reasons, but then was it really a sin???

HOW IT ALL STARTED

I received a call one beautiful morning from a good old friend, there was this ponzi scheme then (ultimate cycler) that she registered on and needed downlines,she had seen people get paid so she was almost sure about it, she managed to convince me into it and just some days after I registered the site crashed 😂😂😂.

Of course I wasn't happy but then it was all about risk, so you must make up your mind to be ready to accept your fate in case it doesn't go the way you wanted.

After some weeks passed, that my friend chatted me up again about another scheme (twinkas) that seemed promising, this time she had invested and gotten her profit so she encouraged me to use the 20k she made from investing her 10k to register, when i get the profit of 40k, i will take the 20k and give her back the capital.

It was a great idea but then the story wasn't different, i still registered and some says later nothing serious was been displayed on the site again, i could remember waking up every morning to check up my page and also expecting alert that never came 😂😂😂😂

Finally my third experience which I really learnt from, i had some funds that were given to me to buy some stuffs about 120k, just that evening a friend chatted me up (like my village people knew that money have come) that there was one new scheme(givers drive ) that was paying in 3days and you would get your money faster if you invest more.

Wow, i had 120k and really wanted to get more so i thought of investing 100k, i talked to my friend about it, i told him also that the money wasn't for my personal use and then he said I shouldn't put in 100k, i should try 50 since it was my first time.

I thought so hard about it and decided to go for what I know I could replace incase i get disappointed.

I registered and called the guy I was supposed to pay, i decided to ask him when he registered and he said it was just within 48hrs and then i became more confident that i was going to get mine ASAP, i paid him and relaxed awaiting my own alert but it was so unfortunate that i never got any till today, the site crashed.

This one really hurt me bad because the money wasn't mine and I couldn't even tell the person about it because i was so scared of not having funds entrusted with me anymore.

Despite the hurt, deep down my heart, i was super grateful to God that i was able to share my fears with my friend and I also listened to his suggestion of investing a lesser amount because that was what saved me.

But then i learnt never to invest anymore that wasn't mine for whatsoever reason.

The scheme wasn't just for me.

That's for reading, i still remain @cherylsonty!

Feel free to share your experience on it or what you feel about the scheme.

I heard it's back again, would you want to invest in it even after unpleasant experiences in the past???
