The GP Football Ponzi scheme has collapsed.

GP Football operated from the website domain “gp686.com”.

GP686 was privately registered through a Chinese registrar on January 8th, 2022.

Attempts to access GP Football’s website return either access blocked or tunneling errors (i.e. the scammers behind it pulled the plug).

GP Football was a “click a button” app Ponzi targeted at Nigeria.

GP Football solicited investment in Nigerian Naira (NGN) and the cryptocurrency tether (USDT).

Minimum investment amounts appear to have been 3000 NGN or 100 USDT.

GP Football affiliates invested NGN or USDT on the promise of advertised returns.

The highest daily ROI I saw offered by GP Football was 8.84%.

The MLM side of GP Football paid on recruitment of affiliate investors:

  • level 1 (personally recruited affiliates) – 8%
  • level 2 – 5%
  • level 3 – 3%

GP Football’s “click a button” Ponzi ruse was betting on football matches.

Returns were in fact only tied to new investment.

GP Football launched in or around April 2022. New investment ran dry within a few weeks, prompting GP Football’s collapse.

GP Football is part of a group of “click a button” app Ponzis launched over the past few months.

Thus far BehindMLM has documented:

  • COTP – pretended affiliates clicking a button generated trading activity, collapsed May 2022
  • EthTRX is a similar app-based Ponzi, with the daily task component disabled
  • Yu Klik – pretends clicking a button generates trading activity, targeting Indonesia
  • KKBT – pretended clicking a button generates crypto mining revenue, targeted South Africa and India & collapsed early June 2022
  • EasyTask 888 – pretends clicking a button was tied to social media manipulation (YouTube likes), targets Colombia

  • OTCAI – pretended affiliates clicking a button generated trading activity, collapsed May 2022
  • N9 Football – pretended affiliates clicking a button was tied to gambling on football match outcomes (collapsed May 2022)
  • Tron.BI – pretends affiliates clicking a button was tied to TRX cloud mining
  • EFG Football – pretended affiliates clicking a button was tied to gambling on football match outcomes (collapsed May 2022)

There are more of these scams around that I haven’t got to yet.

All the recent app-based task Ponzis appear to be launched by the same group of scammers.

Based on the use of simplified Chinese, I suspect the group are operating out of China or Singapore.
