On December 18, 2025, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in Ranchi arrested Chander Bhushan Singh and Priyanka Singh, directors of Maxizone Touch Pvt. Ltd., in a ₹307 crore ($34.2 million) multi-level marketing and money laundering scam, per The Times of India. The couple had been evading authorities for three years using fake identities and frequent address changes, per. Maxizone Touch, operating via mymaxizone.com (registered November 18, 2024, to Bhushan Singh), promised 10–20% monthly returns through financial services, per its Instagram.
Maxizone Touch lured investors with high-yield MLM investment plans, typical of Ponzi schemes, where returns are paid from new deposits. Marketing ceased in September 2025, signaling a collapse. The ED’s action follows a pattern of Indian crackdowns on MLM crypto/non-crypto scams, including GSB GSPartners, Forsage, and OnPassive, per. ₹307 crore in alleged fraud highlights the scale, targeting primarily Indian investors.
The Singhs were produced in court last week, with proceedings ongoing. Victims, likely numbering in the thousands, face losses with little recovery prospect. Maxizone Touch’s abrupt halt mirrors Daisy Global and Blockchain Sports reboots, per. Investors should report to ED via enforcementdirectorate.gov.in and avoid MLM schemes promising guaranteed returns, per. Bitcoin (BTC) ($113,234) and Ethereum (ETH) ($4,070) remain unaffected, CoinMarketCap.
