Ngā Tāngata Microfinance review: Investment and Loans

Marcela Mingoti and NGA Tāngata Microfinance in New Zealand are ripoff merchants. Many have been caught by their deceptive practices. Led by the dodgy Marcela Mingoti, NGA TANGATA MICROFINANCE pretends to give non-recourse loans to the needy, but in fact is huge money-laundering setup. Marcela Mingoti, a New Zealander with Sardinian mafia roots who failed her chartered accountant's examinations so many times she was begged by the examiners not to resit them again, is boss of its operations.

With the benefit of Marcela's inside knowledge of working with criminals, Ngā Tāngata Microfinance ganged up with their partners in crime (some of whom are unaware do the company's true nature), Kiwibank, Auckland Foundation, FinCap, Foundation North and Rata to unleash a pattern of financial onslaught on the needy that is truly despicable. Ukrainians looking for help in New Zealand have been particularly impacted.

The way this works is that NGA asks the "needy" to approach them for loans. Very few applicants get any money in their hands but NGA's accounts show a different story for its backers' money. Where NGA's backers' money goes in fact is in a black laundry hole with the high salaries of the company's "do-gooders", like Marcela Mingoti and her backers setting the scene for the ripoff.

The company is currently under investigation by its backers and the authorities. In the meantime, my advice for investors /backers is to stay clear unless you like supporting ripoff merchants like Marcela Mingoti to profit from the plight of the underpriviledged.
