不要与 MetaMask 混淆：菲律宾 SEC 已对 METAMAX ASIAN INC./METAMAX 发出警告，称该公司未获得授权

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.

菲律宾证券交易委员会 (SEC) 发布了针对 METAMAX ASIAN INC./METAMAX 的咨询，警告该公司无权招揽投资，并且可能正在运营庞氏骗局。

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 发布咨询意见之际，有报道称 MetaMax 承诺在短时间内实现高投资回报。据称，该公司提供从 P5,000 到 P200,000 不等的会员套餐，并承诺高达 300% 的回报。

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.

根据 SEC 的说法，MetaMax 的活动似乎与过去被委员会关闭的其他未经授权的投资计划类似。这些计划通常会提供不可持续的回报并最终崩溃，给投资者带来重大损失。

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.

美国证券交易委员会敦促公众对任何看似好得令人难以置信的投资机会保持谨慎。委员会还建议投资者仅与授权实体打交道，并在做出任何投资决定之前始终进行彻底的尽职调查。
