n there is an investment or placement
of money in a common enterprise with a reasonable expectation of profits to be derived
from the efforts of others
which is prominent in
the scheme of
PHLAZADA INTERNATIONAL
As such
, the Securities Regulation Code (SRC) requires that said offer and sale of
securities must be duly registered with the Commission and that the concerned entity
and/or its agents should have the appropriate registration and/or license to sell such
securiti
es to the public.

,
shows indication of a possible
“Ponzi Scheme”
where
monies from new investors are used in paying “fake profits” to prior investors

detrimental to subsequent members in case
of scarcity of new investors.

the
“Ponzi Scheme”
which is fraudulent and unsustainable, is
NOT
