eAdGear (GoFunRewards) owners indicted on felony charge

Last we checked in on eAdGear (owners of GoFunRewards), things weren’t going too well. After struggling to launch their Ponzi scheme in the US, the company was then embroiled in lawsuits with rivals JubiRev and Randy Williams.

SEC shuts down eAdGear (GoFunPlaces, GoFunRewards)

Last I checked in eAdGear were still involved in a bitter dispute with JubiRev’s Randy Williams. That was back in early 2013 though, and I haven’t really been keeping tabs on William’s and eAdGear’s respective cases since. Two Ponzi schemes suing eachother sounded interesting in premise but turned out to be terribly boring to follow. [Continue reading…]


GoFunRewards pull the plug on revenue sharing

Buried within the paperwork eAdGear had filed for the suit was a “Notice of Pendency of Other Action” that revealed the existance [Continue reading…]


eAdGear file suit against Randy Williams (JubiRev)

I received an anonymous tipoff this morning informing me that GoFunRewards’ parent company eAdGear had filed a civil lawsuit against former President Randy Williams. Sure enough when I checked the newly filed cases list of the North District Court in California, there it was: As per the information above, the suit was filed in San [Continue reading…]


GoFunRewards Review: “Lifestyle Dollars” investing

I’m not sure exactly when it happened but sometime in the last few weeks Go Fun Rewards has removed the “Now in prelaunch!” notice on their website, indicating that the business has officially launched. With the Go Fun Rewards compensation plan readily available, I figured it was time for a review. Go Fun Rewards operate [Continue reading…]
