Summary

PXES (reportedly an acronym for "Professionalism Excellence Evolution Solution") was an online high-yield investment platform operating in Nigeria that promised daily returns of 25-50%, with some packages advertised at up to 120%. In early September 2026 the platform stopped processing withdrawals and became inaccessible, leaving investors unable to recover funds ranging from tens of thousands to millions of naira; angry investors subsequently stormed and looted PXES offices in Yola (Adamawa State) and Kabba (Kogi State). No evidence of registration with Nigeria's Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has been found, and multiple Nigerian outlets have characterized the platform as a suspected Ponzi scheme following a pattern set by predecessors such as MMM and CBEX.
