Puma Invest fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

Puma Invest’s website domain (“pumainvest.vip”), was registered with bogus details on November 27th, 2024.

Of note is Puma Invest’s website domain being registered through the Chinese registrar Alibaba (Singapore).

Puma Invest has already attracted the attention of financial regulators. The Central Bank of Russia issued a Puma Invest pyramid fraud warning on December 12th, 2024.

As always, if an MLM company is not openly upfront about who is running or owns it, think long and hard about joining and/or handing over any money.

Puma Invest Conclusion

Puma Invest is yet another “click a button” app Ponzi scheme.

Puma Invest misappropriates the name and branding of the Puma, a well-known German multinational corporation.

Needless to say Puma Invest has nothing to do with Puma.

Puma Invest doesn’t bother coming up with a ruse. This makes it a typical “task-based” Ponzi scheme.

The assigned task in Puma Invest is “orders”. This sees Puma Invest investors log in daily to “click a button”.

Clicking the button daily qualifies Puma Invest investors to receive advertised daily returns.

Beyond that clicking a button inside Puma Invest does nothing. There is no external revenue; all Puma Invest does is recycle newly invested funds to pay earlier investors.

Puma Invest is part of a group of “click a button” app Ponzis that emerged in late 2021.

Examples of already collapsed “click a button” app Ponzis using the stolen identity ruse are Mark AI Quantity, Vibra VIP and Agility VIP.

Since 2021 BehindMLM has documented hundreds of “click a button” app Ponzis. Most of them last a few weeks to a few months before collapsing

“Click a button” app Ponzis disappear by disabling both their websites and app. This tends to happen without notice, leaving the majority of investors with a loss (inevitable Ponzi math).

As part of a collapse, “click a button” Ponzi scammers often initiate recovery scams. This sees the scammers demand investors pay a fee to access funds and/or re enable withdrawals.

If any payments are made withdrawals remain disabled or the scammers cease communication.

Organized crime interests from China operate scam factories behind “click a button” Ponzis from south-east Asian countries.

In September 2024, the US Department of Treasury sanctioned Cambodian politician Ly Yong Phat over ties to Chinese human trafficking scam factories.

Through various companies he owns, Phat is alleged to shelter Chinese scammers operating out of Cambodia.

Regardless of which country they operate from, the same group of Chinese scammers are believed to be behind the “click a button” app Ponzi plague.
