DistributeX, a company with a business model resembling a Ponzi scheme, has defied warnings from the Malta Financial Services Authority (MFSA) and intensified its promotional activities. Following a MaltaToday investigation that exposed its dubious operations, the company’s leadership denied the accusations and threatened legal action, while simultaneously silencing worried members. Administrators deleted critical messages from user groups and suspended the main WhatsApp group, DistributeX-MT, which had nearly 1,000 members. The company is now planning a community gathering on 22 August, offering high-value incentives, including a BMW sedan worth €45,000.
