Luxembourg regulator calls out iGetMania fund lies
At the turn of the new year GetEasy CEO Tiago Fontoura got in front of a phone camera and told the world that GetEasy had established a trust fund in Luxembourg.
This company has a fund in Luxembourg, our own bank, investment bank… as I told you.
This was followed up by a clarification announcement from IFC Group, GetEasy’s Ponzi partner in crime, again asserting the existence of the fund:
All our future members investment funds will be channeled through the proper fund structures. For this we have bought and created two Master Fund Vehicles in Luxembourg, already registered and in Bloomberg, and in Cayman, on the brink of being registered.
Additionally the newly release iGetMania compensation plan also directly refers to the fund, claiming it is authorised by the CSSF (Luxembourg’s primary financial regulator):
Despite these claims that the fund iGetMania has set up in Luxembourg is already registered, turns out that’s not the case.
According to the CSSF, a registered fund doesn’t even exist.
The Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF) are the primary financial sector regulator in Luxembourg.
As per their website, the CSSF
supervises, regulates, authorises, informs, and, where appropriate, carries out on-site inspections and issues sanctions.
Moreover, it is in charge of promoting transparency, simplicity and fairness in the markets of financial products and services and is responsible for the enforcement of laws on financial consumer protection and on the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing.
In response to Fontoura and IFC Group’s claims of a trust fund being established in Luxembourg, yesterday (January 21st) saw the CSSF issue the following warning:
WARNING
The Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF) warns the public of the activities of an entity named iGetMania which claims to have established in Luxembourg an alleged investment fund named ACG1 regulated by the CSSF.
The CSSF informs the public that neither iGetMania nor ACG1 have been granted the required authorisation to provide financial services in or from Luxembourg and that they are not subject to the supervision of the CSSF.
If iGetMania have any business operations in Luxembourg, they are certainly not registered to do so. But that kind of happens when your gig is running a global Ponzi money laundering operation…
Fontoura and IFC Group also claim to have set up trust funds in the Cayman Islands and Abu Dhabi, along with being on the verge of registering their very own investment bank in the UAE.
Whether there’s even the slightest shred of truth to either claim remains to be seen.
yesterday RS reported that :
so, apparently their plan to purchase banks in the UAE, have fizzled out.
the lie about luxembourg is caught out, the lie about a UAE bank is caught out, are there any takers for their story about ‘funds in caymans’? i thought not.
By “strict” Fontoura of course means money laundering stolen Ponzi funds is just as illegal in the UAE as it is in Portugal.
Obviously what Fontoura claims as nothing to do with anything real.
The one and only real thing is that he is clearly warning that all GetEasy associates already lost whatever money they had inside the backoffice.
The so called “strict bank managers” dont let iGetMania pay GetEasy affiliates….those bad “bank managers”.
On the other hand, they seem to be ok with anyone transfering more money to the new iGetMania…for that they seem to have no problem.
By the way, they seem to never have had any trouble getting more money inside the scam. Everyone who tried to transfer them money, did see their money going away from their bank accounts.
Too bad its pretty much a one way ticket….
The most funniest thing I have ever red. A manifest from a igetmania affiliate:
Another disgraceful LIE as I expected. Now they are going to blame CSSF and do another wtf press release, PDF and youtube video, meh, (I wonder who is their lawyer, probably one of them, seriously, did you read the previous one? awful.
This scam reached bellow the scale of pathetic, it’s just something with no sense, behind LIES.
top Members are spreading the word that tiago had a discussion with Michael Herzog to release the BO and money -> #lmao is that is true…… (of course it’s just a part of this pathetic theater).
Herp derp, where do they think Mr. President got the money from?
GetEasy management (Herzog and mustache man) are now trying to stash stolen affiliate funds in offshore jurisdictions. For no other purpose than to make seizure that much more complicated.
But still the sheeple will bury their heads in the sand…
right, gentle reminder to all the idiot members, to pay in some more, to save the ‘company’ and ‘business’.
meanwhile , the update makes no comment on the luxembourg regulators rejection of the legitimacy of any financial vehicles, igetmania pretends to have set up there. fountoura and herzog can just pretend they never said anything about luxembourg.
the repeated addressal of herzog, as ‘president’ herzog, is apparently to create a personality cult of respect and authority [president herzog is our savior. look at what all he’s doing. paying the poor from his pockets and buying banks for you! lets help this great man, by paying in!]

Nope, never heard of them.
is getmania a registered company in great britain?

Not in any meaningful capacity. This is still a Portguese-based scam through and through.
Nah, smoke and mirrors. It was announced but hasn’t eventuated to date.
