A social media platform called Wealth Horizon has been making waves in Mauritius, with users sharing their experiences of earning money by completing online tasks such as watching videos, inviting friends, and achieving daily goals. The platform promises users that they can earn money with no investment or requirements. According to screenshots circulating online, users can earn up to Rs 450 for inviting friends, Rs 825 for watching videos, and up to Rs 2 150 for daily objectives.

While some users claim to have received payments, others report difficulties in withdrawing their earnings. Several users have expressed frustration, saying they have been waiting for weeks or even months without receiving their money. One user wrote that they had been waiting for five months, while another reported that their transfer had failed after a month. These mixed reports have raised concerns about the legitimacy of the platform.

In February 2026, the Bank of Mauritius and the Financial Services Commission warned the public about unregulated financial opportunities on social media. They advised people to be cautious of promises of high returns with little effort, schemes that rely heavily on recruiting new participants, and a lack of transparency. Wealth Horizon's business model and lack of transparency have raised red flags, with many users questioning whether it is a legitimate way to earn money or a scam.

Despite the concerns, some users are promoting the platform on social media, sharing links and claiming that it is a way to generate income without initial investment. However, experts warn that these testimonials alone are not enough to prove the platform's legitimacy. A thorough investigation into the platform's operators, business model, and financials is needed to determine its legitimacy.

According to the Mauritius Network Services (MNS) and the Financial Services Commission (FSC), no company by the name of Wealth Horizon has been found in public records. However, this does not necessarily mean that the platform is operating illegally. The FSC requires licensing for certain financial activities, but it depends on the specific nature of the business.

The website used by Wealth Horizon, wealthqmshorizon.buzz, presents itself as a portal for managing online orders and claims that users can earn money with no investment or requirements. However, further investigation is needed to determine the platform's true nature and whether it is operating with the necessary licenses and regulations.

Ultimately, experts advise users to exercise caution when dealing with online platforms that promise easy money. Before sharing personal or banking information, or investing money, it is essential to verify the operator's identity, business nature, and authorization from relevant authorities. The key points to consider are:
