Ultimate Cycler: Panic Grips Nigerians In MMM As Another Ponzi Scheme Website CrashesThere were signals of panic and consternation among Nigerians, who have invested heavily in the controversial MMM, after a sister Ponzi Scheme, Ultimate Cycler, crashed on Thursday, December 1, 2016.
It was learnt that since yesterday, members of the money doubling scheme were unable to login to their accounts.
When accessed, an error line of code will display and another message that reads: “Be right back. We are currently updating the site to give you a more pleasurable experience and will be back online shortly. Our update estimation is to be complete over the next 6 – 12 hours. Thank you, Peter Wolfing.”
The Twitter account also acknowledged that the website had crashed.

The hook for Ultimate Cycler is members get a return of N50,000 after paying N12,500 to a fellow member he or she registered under.
The demerit with these money doubling schemes is that, just like MMM, when such websites go down, chances are that it never comes up again and hence, “investors’” money goes with it.
