The EFG Football Ponzi scheme has collapsed.
EFG Football operated from two domains that I’m aware of; “winefg.com” and “winefg-1.com”.
“winefg.com” was privately registered on April 8th, 2022.
“winefg-1.com” was privately registered on April 15th, 2022.
Attempting to access either website domain currently returns a “ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED” DNS error.
EFG Football was a “click a button” app Ponzi targeted at the Philippines.
EFG Football integrated itself with GCash, a popular Philippine mobile wallet service.
EFG Football affiliates invested Philippines Pesos (PHP). This was done on the promise of advertised returns.
The highest daily ROI I saw offered by EFG Football was 7.25%.
EFG Football also rewarded affiliates for building large downline:
EFG Football’s “click a button” Ponzi ruse was betting on football matches.
Returns were in fact only tied to new investment.
EFG Football launched in April 2022. New investment ran dry sometime in May, prompting the Ponzi to collapse.
Tron.BI is part of a group of “click a button” app Ponzis launched over the past few months.

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.
