In the r/Scams community, user dalovar posted a detailed breakdown of the fraudulent scheme Capital Infinity, which is actively operating in Peru. The project promises a guaranteed return of 0.25% per day. According to user dalovar, with compound interest, this seemingly modest figure turns $1,000 into $9 million in just 10 years, which is mathematically impossible and is a classic sign of a pyramid scheme.
The scammers claim to be associated with the company Paris Corp and state that they are regulated by the Peruvian financial supervisory body, SBS. However, this is a lie: the SBS has issued an official warning stating that Capital Infinity is illegally collecting money from the public, and the company is not listed in the official registry of authorized organizations.
According to user dalovar, the scam is being promoted by serial scammers. One of the promoters, known on TikTok by the alias "Jose Manuel Quantico", was previously involved in a major 2020 scandal related to fake fruit plantation investments. At that time, more than 200 people suffered from the actions of this group, losing huge amounts of money. The Peruvian television channel América TV aired a report exposing these individuals, yet they continued their activities. To avoid leaving a trace, the scammers prefer to accept cash payments, while displaying a fake luxurious lifestyle on social media.
The author of the post emphasizes that due to the inefficiency of the law enforcement system in Peru, it is practically impossible to count on getting funds returned or achieving justice. He calls on citizens to be vigilant, independently verify any investment information through official regulator databases, and publicly expose scammers to warn other people.
