MoneyMaking Review – Ponzi Scheme – MLM Scam
Website & Company Information
The web domain of the company was privately registered on the 30th of October 2019 and was later updated on 2020–02–24. The company does not directly provide any information about who owns the company. There is also no information about the team behind the company.
The marketing materials of the company pitches Eduina Rojas de Gonzalez, as the CEO of the company.
We reviewed a marketing video of MoneyMaking, where anybody can tell that the man is reading from a script. As Gonzales reads the script finance-related stock footage is played.
There is another video that shows that he is sitting in a temporarily rented office, and the company logo is digitally printed on the background.
For us, Eduina Rojas de Gonzalez is a fictitious character that is played by an actor. Because if you try to find anything about him on the internet, you will end up with nothing!
There is another video on the Youtube titled “Message from our official distributor Rodrigo Kaito from South America!”
Rodrigo Kaito identifies himself as the owner of the CopyInvest. Further research reveals his real name, i.e., Rodrigo Kawamura.
He has been using CryptoInvest to promote a number of Phoney schemes. He can be a close associate of MoneyMaking and is based out of Parana, Brazil.
At the time of writing this article, Alexa cites Venezuela (17.8%), Argentina (6.8%) and Algeria (6.1%) as top sources of traffic to MoneyMaking’s website. It is highly likely that the admin is operating from any one of these countries.

Once you have invested your funds, the company converts the invested amount into MMC. The convert ratio is 1:1, making one MMC value to $1. Returns across all of MoneyMaking’s investment plans, as well as commissions and bonuses, are paid in MMC.
Referral Commissions
The company also pays referral commissions via a unilevel compensation structure, capped at 4 uni-level teams:
- Distributors earn 4% on level 1 (personally recruited affiliates) and 2% on levels 2 to 4
- Leading Distributors earn 8% on level 1 and 2% on levels 2 to 4
- Regional Representatives earn 16% on level 1 and 2% on levels 2 to 4
The company does not clearly provide rank qualification criteria.
ROI Commissions
The affiliates of the company earn commission on returns earned by downline affiliates. These returns are capped down four levels of recruitment, tracked via the unilevel team:
- an 8% ROI match is paid on level 1 (personally recruited affiliates)
- a 4% ROI match is paid on level 2 (excludes investment less than $1000)
- a 2% match is paid on levels 3 and 4 (excludes investment less than $10,000)
Joining MoneyMaking
Joining MoneyMaking affiliates membership is not free and is tied to an initial investment of $1, and it goes as high as $500,000, all in MMC points.
Conclusion
The company claims of generating external revenue through “algorithms”, “blockchain technology” and “artificial intelligence”. This is convention MLM statement where the company tries to be a high-level money-making machine, but it has no substantial evidence to prove its claims.
For us, MoneyMaking is a simple Ponzi points scheme where new affiliates signup and invest real money into MMC points. On the other side, the company generates these MMC points at no cost. So in practical terms, you are giving something which has real value and are getting something that is worthless outside the company’s ecosystem. The Ponzi component is satisfied through internal withdrawal requests, which MoneyMaking honours with subsequently invested funds.
