A Nigerian man has shared a heartfelt message aimed at individuals who suffered financial losses after investing in Cbex, a platform now widely believed to have been a Ponzi scheme that eventually crashed.
His message, which has gained attention on social media, was intended to offer support and strength to those affected. He encouraged them to stay resilient and view their current situation as a passing phase.
In his post on X (formerly Twitter), the man acknowledged the emotional toll of losing money in such schemes, noting that depression and hopelessness can follow such a financial hit.
According to Mr Bankstips, those impacted by the Cbex platform should avoid seeing this loss as a life-ending moment.
He wrote: “This is for those who lost their money to the obvious CBEX ponzi, I know things feel overwhelming right now and maybe it feels like there’s no way out, you should hear this. Your life has meaning, even if you can’t see it at this moment. Pain can cloud everything, but it doesn’t mean it will stay this way. Feelings change. Situations change and healing/recovery is possible.”
He emphasized that people might need time to reflect and process what happened before making any major life decisions. He urged against impulsive actions that could result from emotional distress.
In his words: “Don’t make a permanent decision based on a temporary storm. Talk to someone. Call a friend, a therapist, rant about it on your social, do anything to feel better. You are not weak for needing help, you are human and you are worthy of love, peace, and joy. Even if it doesn’t feel like it today, better days can and will come. Do not entertain the thought of suic!de; take this as an important life lesson and learn from it, if it’s too good to be true, it probably is.”
Many users responded with appreciation and shared their own views on the situation.
@GabrielOnifade3 commented:
“I’m not even surprised that a lot of people are crying now since the obvious CBEX platform crash. This is the same thing that MMM did in the past. They leverage on your greed. I believe they have learnt in the hardway. No quick money anywhere.”
@MagnificentKin6 added:
“They supposed pay money for this motivation wey you give them so because most of them wey hiding the update.”
@AndinoAsuquo praised the post, saying:
“God bless you greatly for putting this together for them. You understand mental health and suicidal tendencies. I joined you to send my prayers and love to them. There’s nothing wrong in trying and taking a risk is a good choice sometimes. If CBEX ponzi did not fail you wouldn’t have a chance to be worried, so in the same breath and energy put yourself up. It happens but it’s not the end of your life.”
