In a video recorded by the actress, she assured customers that their gold trades are safe and business was proceeding as usual.
According to the SEC, Menzgold has been dealing in the purchase and deposit of gold collectables from the public and issuing contracts with guaranteed returns with clients, without a valid license from the Commission. The business, according to SEC is in contravention of “section 109 of Act 929 with consequences under section 2016 (I) of the same Act.”
