trends:
-is it registered in difc - no
-monthly profit - 7-11%
-management - only one person is known (malik awan - ceo). the rest are unknown.
-do they have traders? - they said yes but if you go to their office, you will only see RMs.
-the reason they used when they delayed on their payment? - vague banking issues. they promised investors that they are sorting out a deal with a large german bank to solve the issue.
- mma started in 2006 and started having problems in 2012.
-ceo is flaunting his ferrari (check lemos fb page)
-ceo sponsored pakistan cricket team (EG has fc goa)
-they changed the withdrawal requirement (forms,etc) the moment they started delaying the payout. they made it more difficult for investors to withdraw.
sad to say, people did not recover their investments (or at least for majority). some people are still pursuing a case and asking liquidators for the clawback procedure. i was one of the victims of mma. was it futile to file a case against them? maybe yes. but at least they were exposed soon and it ended the agony of waiting. and thats my only stake here. the sooner that EG is proven as a scam, the lesser the victims. on the other hand, the sooner that EG is proven as legit, the sooner i can dump all my money to them, resign, and spend the rest of my life going around the world
how about you? whats your stake here? you seem to believe so much about EG, and yet you are not an investor. is 7-11% monthly profit not enough for you?
Me? I just don't want to add more negativity here. Yes! I'm not an investor by my brother has an account with them and not only one account. Sorting out things that involve lawyers are not on the plate for him. So, the best thing is to wait and see how things will go. There's no news that EG is scam. No proof yet. I have seen people went to court but until now, I don't hear any news that they got paid. But I heard people now are receiving their funds from their withdrawals. So, instead of saying a lot of negative things about EG, wait and give more patience for them to get back on track.
