不要與 MetaMask 混淆：菲律賓 SEC 已對 METAMAX ASIAN INC./METAMAX 發出警告，稱該公司未獲得授權

The Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has issued an advisory against METAMAX ASIAN INC./METAMAX, warning that the company is not authorized to solicit investments and may be operating a Ponzi scheme.

菲律賓證券交易委員會 (SEC) 發布了針對 METAMAX ASIAN INC./METAMAX 的諮詢，警告該公司無權招攬投資，並且可能正在運營龐氏騙局。

The SEC’s advisory comes amid reports that MetaMax has been promising high returns on investments in a short period of time. The company is said to be offering membership packages that range from P5,000 to P200,000, with promised returns of up to 300%.

SEC 發布諮詢意見之際，有報告指出 MetaMax 承諾在短時間內實現高投資回報。據稱，該公司提供從 P5,000 到 P200,000 不等的會員套餐，並承諾高達 300% 的回報。

According to the SEC, MetaMax’s activities appear to be similar to those of other unauthorized investment schemes that have been shut down by the Commission in the past. These schemes typically offer unsustainable returns and eventually collapse, leaving investors with significant losses.

根據 SEC 的說法，MetaMax 的活動似乎與過去被委員會關閉的其他未經授權的投資計劃類似。這些計劃通常會提供不可持續的回報並最終崩潰，給投資者帶來重大損失。

The SEC is urging the public to be cautious of any investment opportunities that seem too good to be true. The Commission also advises investors to only deal with authorized entities and to always conduct thorough due diligence before making any investment decisions.

美國證券交易委員會敦促大眾對任何看似好得令人難以置信的投資機會保持謹慎。委員會還建議投資者僅與授權實體打交道，並在做出任何投資決定之前始終進行徹底的盡職調查。

同時，Coins.ph 也發布了有關 MetaMax 的聲明。據該交易所稱，他們正在採取積極措施來保護用戶，防止與 MetaMax 等涉及非法計劃的平台進行交易。

Several users of MetaMax have also taken to social media to share their experiences, with some claiming to have received their payouts through Coins.ph.

MetaMax 的一些用戶也在社交媒體上分享了他們的經歷，其中一些用戶聲稱是透過 Coins.ph 收到的付款。

After an advisory, the SEC will follow up with a cease-and-desist order only if the group does not stop its activities.
