XRP AI Bot Review: Gohar bros launch AI bot ruse Ponzi
24XRP AI Bot fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.
XRP AI Bot’s website domain (“xrpaibot.com”), was privately registered on April 16th, 2025.
Further research reveals XRP AI Bot promoters citing Rehan Gohar as CEO:
That led me to an official webinar ad citing Gohar as XRP AI Bot’s “Marketing Expert”:
Jack Muller is presented as XRP AI Bot’s CEO. In other instances, Gohar is cited as CEO and Muller as XRP AI Bot’s “bot designer”:
Muller of course doesn’t exist outside of XRP AI Bot’s marketing. An Instagram profile was created under the name “Dr. Jan Van Muller” on July 6th, 2025.
The actor playing Muller has a European accent. Beyond that he just seems to be a random guy plucked from somewhere.
Rehan Gohar meanwhile is a serial MLM crypto Ponzi fraudster.
Rehan Gohar and brother Rizwan Gohar were behind the BizzTrek pyramid scheme, launched back in 2018.
BizzTrek collapsed around mid 2019. This prompted the launch of BizzTrade, a forex themed Ponzi scheme.
BizzTrade collapsed in mid 2020, prompting a reboot with “BizzCoin” and crypto trading.
BizzCoin’s crypto Ponzi collapsed towards the end of 2020. 2021 was mostly spent feeding BizzTrade victims various excuses.
In December 2021 BizzTrade Pro launched. BizzCoin was swapped out for BizzCoin Pro, and the Ponzi scamming continued.
BizzTradePro lasted until April 2022, prompting the Gohar brothers to launch NextGen Academy.
NextGen Academy began to collapse by early 2023, prompting the launch of My Car Club in March 2023.
Following a regulatory enforcement action in Australia tied to money laundering, NextGen and My Car Club collapsed in or around May 2023.
Call me cynical but, with XRP AI Bot, it appears the Gohar brothers are hiding behind a puppet CEO. It’s not the first time they’ve done it, NextGen Academy was fronted by CEO Paul Chalmers.
Originally from the UK, as investor losses mounted the Gohar brothers fled to 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:
- If someone lives in Dubai and approaches you about an MLM opportunity, they’re trying to scam you.
- 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 XRP AI Bot, read on for a full review. [Continue reading…]
EXW’s Ben Herzog arrested on PrivaFund charges
EXW Ponzi founder Benjamin Herzog was sentenced to five years in prison in October 2024.
Counting time served, Herzog only spent a few months in prison. In April 2025 Herzog was released under monitoring supervision.
Under this arrangement Herzog was able to work again, and reportedly had been at a warehouse up until a few weeks ago. [Continue reading…]
Faraday Hosseinipour throws brother-in-law under bus
In a bid to avoid prison time, Faraday Hosseinipour has thrown her brother-in-law under the bus.
As a top promoter of the Infinity2Global Ponzi scheme, Hosseinipour was convicted by a jury in September 2022. Hosseinipour was sentenced to two and a half years in prison in January 2023.
In addition to being her brother-in-law, Wayne Manning was Hosseinipour’s attorney through to sentencing. [Continue reading…]
Aarman Review: BDX token staking Ponzi scheme
Aarman fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.
Aarman’s website domain (“aarman.com”), was registered in November 2000. The private registration was last updated on September 10th, 2024.
Through the WayBack Machine we can see Aarman’s current website went live in late 2024. This suggests Aarman’s admin(s) acquired the domain in or around September 2024.
On its website Aarman provides a corporate address in Hong Kong. The address corresponds to a random factory building. It’s unlikely this address has anything to do with Aarman.
Aarman’s compensation documentation additionally provides a “marketing office” address in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. This is a random office tower which, again, is unlikely to have anything to do with Aarman.
As of August 2025, SimilarWeb was tracking ~112,000 monthly visits to Aarman’s website.
99% of Aarman’s website traffic originates from India. As opposed to Hong Kong, this strongly suggests whoever is running Aarman has ties to India.
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…]
VIM Review: Brent Payne reboots Liberty League (again)
VIM operates in the personal development MLM niche. The company operates from two known website domains:
- wearevim.com – registered in October 2017, private registration last updated on October 3rd, 2023
- vimnow.com – registered in December 2013, private registration last updated on December 12th, 2024
Heading up VIM we have co-founders Brent Payne and Linda Baer.
Brent Payne first popped up on BehindMLM’s radar as co-founder of Liberty League.
After a nine year run, Liberty League collapsed in mid 2009.
Payne returned in mid 2010 with the launch of Avant, essentially his own spin on a Liberty League reboot.
Avant failed to capture the traction of Liberty League. In 2012 Payne switched gears and launched Real Estate Worldwide.
After Real Estate Worldwide promptly collapsed, VIM launched in 2013.
BehindMLM reviewed RenovoVita in April 2020, noting Payne, Baer and Eddie Asiano as co-founders.
RenovoVita markets a range of nutritional supplements with a focus on anti-aging.
The company is still operational at time of publication, although there’s no mention of Payne or Baer on the “about us” page on RenovoVita’s website. Ed Asiano appears to have disappeared altogether.
Baer still features on RenovoVita’s social media accounts. Payne’s last appearance on RenovoVita’s official FaceBook page was October 2024.
In BehindMLM’s RenovoVita review we noted mention of VIM in Payne’s corporate bio. It seems Payne has been out there personally pitching VIM, such that I received a reader request to review VIM independently.
Read on for a full review of VIM’s MLM opportunity. [Continue reading…]
LevAI Review: LaCore Enterprises’ AI-generated slop opp
LevAI fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.
LevAI’s website domain (“getlev.ai”), was privately registered on July 18th, 2025.
Further research reveals offsite LevAI marketing citing Blake Schroeder as CEO:
Why this information is hidden from consumers is unclear.
Of additional note is the footer of LevAI’s website featuring LaCore Enterprises’ corporate address.
This suggests LevAI is the usual set up of a LaCore Enterprises MLM company fronted by a third-party CEO.
Instead of disclosing ownership, LevAI states this on its website;
We work with LACORE Enterprises as our global service provider for payments and operations, drawing on 25+ years of channel expertise and a multibillion- dollar track record to ensure reliable, scalable growth.
Blake Schroeder made a name for himself with Monavie circa 2008 to 2015. After Monavie was sold off to Jeunesse in 2015, Schroeder had a brief stint as COO of Forevergreen International.
From 2016 Schroeder was involved in Kannaway, eventually rising to CEO. In 2021 Schroeder was appointed CEO and President of Kannaway’s parent company, Medical Marijuana.
Schroeder resigned from Medical Marijuana in March 2023.
LaCore Enterprises is based out of Texas and owned by Terry LaCore (right).
LaCore Enterprises owns a number of MLM companies. Due to frequent shutdowns and launches, it’s difficult to provide a definitive number.
Of note is one of LaCore Enterprises’ former flagship MLM companies, Pruvit, being sold off to HerbaLife earlier this year.
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…]
3FO Review: Shavez Anwar’s AI ruse Ponzi scheme
3FO operates in the MLM cryptocurrency niche. The company operates from the domain “3fo.ai”, privately registered on June 25th, 2025.
3FO is based out of Dubai and headed up by serial fraudster Shavez Ahmed Siddiqui, aka Shavez Anwar.
Anwar (right) was a central figure in Sam Lee’s collapsed HyperFund Ponzi scheme.
After HyperFund collapsed, Lee and Siddiqui continued to defraud consumers through HyperOne (Siddiqui was HyperOne’s “Operation Head of Asia Pacific”).
After HyperOne Lee and Siddiqui teamed up on StableDAO, essentially HyperTech Group 2.0 (HyperTech was the parent company of Lee’s HyperCapital and HyperFund Ponzis).
Through StableDAO Lee launched StableOpinion, VidiLook (rebooted as ViviLook 2.0 and then again as VEND), WeAreAllSatoshi, Satoshi Math Club and Boomerang Trade (aka Boomerang Arbitrage Trading).
At some point Lee had a falling out with Siddiqui, prompting Siddiqui to take over We Are All Satoshi (WAAS) as his own Ponzi project.
Following multiple failed WAAS reboots, Siddiqui launched Lquid Finance and Lquid Pay.
BehindMLM never formally reviewed Lquid Pay but as per research by Danny de Hek, the scheme sold debit cards tied to Visa’s network.
Commissions were purportedly paid on affiliate recruit, residual commissions and funneling investors into other BTCC token scams.
From 3FO’s own website, these include Deobank, Protocol Yield, LFG and DeFi Fund Access.
Multiple regulatory fraud warnings have been issued in relation to Siddiqui’s various schemes;
- California issued a We Are All Satoshi securities fraud desist and refrain order in September 2023;
- New Zealand issued a We Are All Satoshi and Boomerang Trade fraud warning in August 2024;
- Quebec issued a We Are All Satoshi securities fraud warning in November 2024;
- New Zealand issued a Lquid Finance securities fraud warning in May 2025; and
- Australia issued a Lquid Finance and LquidPay securities fraud warning in June 2025
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:
- If someone lives in Dubai and approaches you about an MLM opportunity, they’re trying to scam you.
- If an MLM company is based out of or represents it has ties to Dubai, it’s a scam.

Sevinity Review: Eternafy “cell repair” supplement
Sevinity operates in the nutritional supplement MLM niche.
A corporate address isn’t provided on Sevinity’s website. As per Sevenity’s website Terms of Use however;
All arbitration proceedings will be held in Collin County, State of Texas.
Heading up Sevenity we have three co-founders; Kevin Fournier, Danelle Meoli and Ken Downey:
Kevin Fournier teamed up with Ray Faltinsky to launch FreeLife in 1995. In late 2013 Fournier and Faltinsky teamed up again to launch L’dara International.
In 2017 FreeLife and L’dara International were sold off to Youngevity.
Fournier resurfaced in 2021 as President of CTFO, aka Changing the Future Outcome.
Danelle Meoli popped up on BehindMLM radar in 2022, as co-founder of Awakend.
There’s no sugarcoating the disaster Awakend was and Meoli’s role in it.
Next to the quickly forgotten about NFT gimmick, Awakend’s biggest problem pertained to licensing of its flagship Zenith supplement. Amid ongoing litigation, Meoli took to social media in October 2022 to spread misinformation.
Sometime after that Meoli disappeared, with Awakend going on to collapse in June 2024.
I don’t believe Meoli ever publicly addressed what happened to Awakend or her role in it.
Ken Downey’s LinkedIn profile reveals a corporate history in circuit boards (2010 to present) and plastics (2019 to present). As far as I can tell Downey doesn’t have MLM executive experience.
Read on for a full review of Sevenity’s MLM opportunity. [Continue reading…]
Labriola, Nehra & Babener TelexFree CA settlements finalized
Final judgment has been handed down against three defendants in the ongoing TelexFree class-action.
On August 7th Judge Gorton issued a non-descript summary judgment order.
On August 27th Judge Gorton issued an order “in favor of the Estate of Jeffrey Babener, Steven Labriola, Nehra Law Office, Gerald Nerha (individually) and Gerald P. Nehra Attorney at Law, PLLC.
The two orders are related and left me confused: Why were settlements resolved through summary judgment granted in favor of the defendants?
Turns out that was an error, rectified by the court on August 27th after a Class Plaintiff pointed the error out. [Continue reading…]
Lisa Boisselle ordered to cease securities fraud in AZ
On January 6th, 2021, Lisa Anne Boisselle joined a group of insurrectionists and stormed the US Capitol.
A month later Boisselle began defrauding consumers through promotion of MLM crypto Ponzi schemes. Despite mounting losses for her victims, as of 2025 Boisselle is still allegedly promoting scams.
Now, the Arizona Corporation Commission has ordered Boisselle to stop. [Continue reading…]
