Satoshi Mobile fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

Satoshi Mobile’s website domain (“satoshimobile.io”), was privately registered on August 5th, 2025.

In what appears to be attempts to conceal Satoshi Mobile’s ownership, website and marketing videos feature AI-generated slop.

The one Satoshi Mobile marketing video embedded on its website leads us to Satoshi Mobile’s official YouTube channel.

There we find a September 2nd Satoshi Mobile marketing video titled, “Bitcoin Mobile Network Service REVIEW“.

The video is hosted by John Wesley Rustin, representing himself to be from “ZSuite Team”.

ZSuite Global was an MLM crypto Ponzi launched around mid 2024. ZSuite Global’s website was disabled and its social media profiles deleted sometime over the last month.

ZSuite Global itself was a reboot of Yereq Geo Energy (aka YGE International), an energy ruse MLM Ponzi scheme launched in early 2023.

Yereq Geo Energy, Zenyge and ZSuite Global were run by John Rustin and Cynthia Rustin (aka Cynthia Ocariza Altman).

It’s unclear whether Cynthia Rustin is directly involved in Satoshi Mobile.

Of note is the Rustins’ CJCLive Media securities fraud cease and desist, issued by California’s DFPI in July 2020.

John Rustin was also separately pinged for securities fraud by Arkansas in 2009.

As per various social media profiles, the Rustins have ties to Hawaii, Nevada and California.

As always, if an MLM company is not openly upfront about who is running or owns it, think long and hard about joining and/or handing over any money. [Continue reading…]

Since the cusp of the COVID-19 pandemic, Zinzino has been acquiring MLM companies at an impressive rate.

Things started off slow back in 2019, but in the last year alone Zinzino has acquired no less than five MLM companies.

What’s going on and how is Zinzino able to keep this going financially? [Continue reading…]

WeFi operates in the cryptocurrency MLM niche.

WeFi’s website address (“wefi.co”), was registered in January 2024. The private registration was last updated on November 30th, 2024.

WeFi does not provide a corporate address on its website. Instead, in barely legible text, WeFi’s website lists associated shell companies registered in various jurisdictions:

• WeFi Payments Limited, a Canadian shell company claimed to be “a registered money services business”
• 3-102-939581 S.R.L., a Costa Rica shell company
• Nordpal Holding Limited, a Hong Kong shell company

WeFi is also associated with WeChain, which it claims is part of the “WeFi ecosystem”.

WeChain operates from the website domain “wechain.ai”, registered in May 2024. WeChain’s private domain registration was last updated on April 2nd, 2025.

In the footer of WeChain’s website, again in barely legible text, we find reference to:

• AppAtlas Technologies LLC, a St Vincent and Grenadines shell company
• InfiniCore Tech LLC, a Saint Kitts and Nevis shell company

All but one of WeFi’s shell companies is registered in a dodgy jurisdiction (i.e. little to no MLM related regulation). This raises a red flag for what should be obvious reasons.

Heading up WeFi we have:

• Reeve Collins – Chairman and Board Member
• Maksym Sakharov – Board Member
• Roman Rossov – Board Member
• Yusuf Mirakhmedov – Board Member
• Khaled Suleiman – Board Member

Reeve Collins cites himself as the founder and former CEO of Tether. Tether launched in 2014 and created and operates USDT, a cryptocurrency bearing the same name.

Collins and the other co-founders sold tether to the cryptocurrency exchange Bitfinex in 2015. Since then, USDT has grown to become the most common cryptocurrency BehindMLM comes across in MLM related fraud.

As of September 2025, Tether’s USDT marketcap sits at $170.04 billion. Up until 2019, Tether falsely claimed on its website that

Every tether is always backed 1-to-1, by traditional currency held in our reserves. So 1 USDT is always equivalent to 1 USD.

Following legal action from the CFTC (2017) New York Attorney General’s Office (2019), Tether changed its USD backed claim to:

Tether Tokens are 100% backed by Tether’s Reserves

In October 2021, Tether paid a $41.6 million fine for lying about USDT being backed by USD.

To date, it is unknown what “Tether’s Reserves” is made up of or, more importantly, whether it comes anywhere near to backing USDT’s current $170 billion market cap.

Tether has consistently refused to let a third-party auditor verify its backing. This lends itself to suspicion Tether is one of the largest consumer-level financial frauds in history.

To be clear, beyond co-founding Tether, Reeve Collins hasn’t had anything to do with Tether’s fraud since 2015. I only point this out because Collins’ personal brand marketing seems to rely heavily on his co-founding of Tether.

WeFi is no exception.

Association with USDT is probably not something I’d want on my resume, but I digress.

Khaled Suleiman’s LinkedIn profile places him in Switzerland. Suleiman has a finance history so I’m assuming this makes him WeFi’s money guy.

Maksym Sakharov and Roman Rossov appear to be random Ukrainian crypto bros who are now based out of Dubai.

Yusuf Mirakhmedov, also based out of Dubai, is a wanted fugitive on the run from Macedonian authorities.

In 2015 Mirakhmedov (born in Uzbekistan as Јусуф Миракхмедов), was appointed Director of Ferronickel and CEO of Feni Industries. Both companies were then owned by Cunico Resources, which Mirakhmedov was also CEO of.

Around mid 2017, Macedonian authorities filed criminal charges against Mirakhmedov. Mirakhmedov was accused of misappropriating over $50 million.

The money, according to the investigators, was embezzled through organized crime by “Cunico Resource”, the company that also owns “Ferronickel” in Kosovo.

In October 2017, Macedonian authorities confirmed Mirakhmedov had fled Macedonia for Uzbekistan.

In 2019 it was confirmed Mirakhmedov was still wanted on an international arrest warrant.

Requested by order KO No. 28/19 from the Public Prosecutor’s Office – GOKK for investigation into the committed criminal offenses “Money laundering and other proceeds from criminal offenses” under Article 273 and “Abuse of official position and authority” under Article 353 of the Criminal Code.

In November 2017, the Financial Police Department filed a criminal complaint against Mirakhmedov, suspecting him of abuse of official position and authority.

Then, during the investigation, the Financial Police determined that Yusuf, the then director, illegally alienated reserves of ferronickel and other ore from the factory.

In December of the same year, the department filed a second criminal complaint against Mirakhmedov due to reasonable suspicion of abuse of official position and authority.

Mirakhmedov made an unfounded write-off of Feni’s untimely receivables, which is suspected of damaging the factory by 51,505,526 US dollars.

It appears at some point Mirakhmedov fled Uzbekistan for Dubai, where he reinvented himself as a crypto bro.

As opposed to the various jurisdictions shell companies have been registered in, WeFi appears to be based out of and operated from Dubai.

Due to the proliferation of scams and failure to enforce securities fraud regulation, BehindMLM ranks Dubai as the MLM crime capital of the world.

BehindMLM’s guidelines for Dubai are:

1. If someone lives in Dubai and approaches you about an MLM opportunity, they’re trying to scam you.
2. If an MLM company is based out of or represents it has ties to Dubai, it’s a scam.

If you want to know specifically how this applies to WeFi, read on for a full review. [Continue reading…]

MaoPay fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

MaoPay’s website domain (“maopay.ai”), was privately registered on April 4th, 2025.

On its website MaoPay provides a purported corporate address in Hong Kong.

The address corresponds to an office tower. It’s unclear whether this address has anything to do with MaoPay.

As always, if an MLM company is not openly upfront about who is running or owns it, think long and hard about joining and/or handing over any money. [Continue reading…]

What’s On The Menu fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

What’s On The Menu’s website domain (“whatsonthemenu.club”), was registered on March 11th, 2024. The private registration was last updated on January 9th, 2025.

A compensation marketing video embedded on What’s On The Menu’s website is hosted on a YouTube channel named “Darryl Miller”. Beyond promoter, I wasn’t able to establish Miller’s role within What’s On The Menu.

Back in July a BehindMLM reader claimed What’s On The Menu was “set up with Kent Brown and Ron Young”.

I was able to confirm Kent Brown is promoting What’s On the Menu on social media:

A FaceBook page for “what’s on the menu/club” cites a “ron” email address hosted on What’s On The Menu’s website domain:

I was also able to confirm “Ron” as a post author on What’s On the Menu’s website:

“Ron” appears to have an admin promoter account under the name “Steakhouse Delivery”.

Ron Young (right), aka Ronnie Young and Herman Ronnie Young, launched the Race Cycler MLM cycler Ponzi in 2014. Kent Brown was the face of the scheme.

After “discussions with SEC staff”, Young shut Race Cycler down in February 2015. In 2017 Young settled Race Cycler securities fraud charges with the SEC for $342,510.

Hydromono fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

Hydromono’s website domain (“hyodromono.com”), was privately registered on June 25th, 2025.

On its website Hydromono provides an incomplete corporate address in Ust-Ilimsk, a town in Irkutsk Oblast, Russia.

In a marketing presentation linked to from Hydromono’s website, we find “Ivan Morozov” credited as Hydromono’s CEO:

Ivan Morozov doesn’t exist outside of Hydromono’s own marketing. Over on YouTube (note Hydromono doesn’t link its YouTube channel from its website), we find Morozov has an eastern-European accent.

This ties into Boris CEO schemes typically being run by eastern-European scammers (Russia, Ukraine and/or Belarus).

As always, if an MLM company is not openly upfront about who is running or owns it, think long and hard about joining and/or handing over any money. [Continue reading…]

UpCapital fails to provide ownership or executive information on its websites.

UpCapital operates from two known website domains:

1. upcapital.tech – privately registered on April 9th, 2025
2. upcapital.ai – registered in August 2024, private registration last updated on April 2nd, 2025

Further research reveals offsite UpCapital marketing material citing “Oscar Buhler” as UpCapital’s CEO:

Buhler doesn’t exist outside of UpCapital’s own marketing, making him a primary Boris CEO candidate.

Starting around three months ago, marketing videos featuring Jaime Morales were uploaded to the YouTube channel “Juan Smart”:

On June 20th a video was uploaded featuring UpCapital’s Oscar Buhler.

Buhler, or the actor playing Buhler, speaks in Spanish. This ties into SimilarWeb tracking 100% of UpCapital’s website traffic from Chile as of August 2025.

While Boris CEO schemes are typically run by eastern European scammers, it’s likely whoever is running UpCapital has ties to Chile and/or other Spanish speaking countries across Central and South America.

HW Mall fails to provide ownership or executive information on any of its websites.

HW Mall operates from four known website domains:

• smartminingusdt.mom – privately registered on July 16th, 2025
• hw-mall.com – privately registered on July 17th, 2025
• hw-mall.vip – privately registered on July 17th, 2025
