🚨 Scam Alert: Polyfarm Ponzi Scheme Mastermind Arrested in Nigeria

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has officially apprehended Bamu Gift Wanji for orchestrating a massive cryptocurrency fraud.

Inside the Scheme:

Deceptive Branding: The project, Polyfarm, falsely claimed to be an integral part of the Polygon ecosystem to gain credibility. Investigations confirmed no actual link to the Polygon blockchain.False Promises: Investors were lured with "guaranteed" high returns that lacked any real economic backing.Aggressive Marketing: The suspect used social media, messaging apps, and physical seminars in major Nigerian cities to recruit victims.The "Hacker" Cover-up: When withdrawals stopped, Wanji claimed the platform was hit by a cyberattack. However, the EFCC found no evidence of a breach—funds were simply siphoned off for his personal use.

The Verdict: Polyfarm was a textbook Ponzi scheme, operating without any license or registration from financial regulators. The case is now heading to court.

⚠️ Key Takeaways for Investors:

Verify Partnerships: Always check official ecosystem directories (like Polygon’s official site) to verify claims of affiliation."Guaranteed Returns" = Red Flag: High, risk-free returns do not exist in the volatile crypto market.Check Licenses: Ensure any investment platform is registered with the relevant financial authorities.
