A heartbreaking video currently making the rounds on social media has captured the moment a young Nigerian lady attempted suicide after allegedly losing ₦50 million to the now-crashed digital trading platform, CBEX.

The distressing clip shows the lady climbing to the top of a high-rise building, visibly shaken and prepared to committ suicide following the crash of CBEX.

Bystanders who noticed the situation quickly intervened and managed to restrain her before the worst could happen. Their timely action likely saved a life.

According to the individual who shared the video online, the distraught woman had invested a whopping ₦50 million in CBEX—an online investment platform that promised users 100% return on investment within just 30 days. Like many others who were lured by the mouthwatering ROI and sleek marketing, she reportedly lost everything when the platform suddenly crashed.

Watch the video below;

CBEX had been trending for days after thousands of users reported that their wallet balances had been wiped clean and withdrawals were suspended. It was also alleged that over $822 million (approximately ₦1.3 trillion) was moved to a private Ethereum wallet just before the crash. As panic spread, the platform locked its Telegram channels and introduced bizarre “verification fees” as a supposed condition for accessing locked funds.

While many victims have taken to social media to express grief and anger, netizens who watched the attempted suicide video reacted with sorrow and concern, calling for swift government action to regulate online investment platforms and to bring the operators of CBEX to justice.
