The Neura Technologies Ponzi scheme has collapsed.

Instead of just admitting new investment ran out to pay withdrawals, Neura Technologies is stringing investors along with recovery promises.

Neura Technologies was an AI cashback ruse Ponzi that launched mid last year.

The fraudulent investment scheme is believed to have been run by Russian scammers.

On February 15th Neura Technologies acknowledged it had disabled withdrawals. The collapse ruse trotted out was baloney about “bank recalls” and “fraudulent ad purchases”.

We sincerely apologize for the lack of complete information over the past week.

We were initially working to fully understand the situation ourselves before communicating it to you. This situation arose unexpectedly, requiring us to react quickly.

Here’s what happened:

– Our website is operational, and we’re working on improvements, but fraudsters used stolen cards to purchase large quantities of advertising budget, likely attempting to withdraw the cashback. Carding attack caused the freezing of the funds and our rolling reserve in our bank in Canada.

– Our accounts with most of the advertising platforms were closed as a result of the bank recalls.

– Our accounts with cashback aggregators are also affected by fraudulent ad purchases.

Of course new investments continued to be processed without issue.

Neura Technologies promised to resolve withdrawal issues “within a week”.

On February 19th Neura Technologies rolled out its “recovery plan” exit-scam:

As previously announced, our site operations were disrupted due to carding activity. We have developed a comprehensive recovery plan to restore normal service as quickly as possible.

Our Recovery Plan:

1. Transfer all unspent advertising budgets to a separate account.

2. Calculate the total amount of “pending” cashback and allocate funds to cover these obligations.

3. Calculate the total amount of verified cashback plus pending withdrawals and allocate funds to cover these obligations.

4. Resume launching new advertising campaigns according to our standard procedure.

5. Reactivate advertising campaigns using the unspent budgets transferred in step 1.

6. Establish a compensation mechanism for amounts identified in step 3.

7. Establish a compensation mechanism for amounts identified in step 2.

In a nutshell; fund collapsed Neura Technologies investment accounts with unallocated monopoly money from the backoffice, and new investment.

As for withdrawals;

Decision regarding compensation mechanisms for pending … withdrawals will be finalized after the campaign is back to normal operation.

Neura Technologies begged for another week to come up with the next phase of its exit-scam.

Typically Ponzi admins go the “carrot on a stick” type exit-scam route to stall for time. While investors are fed a bunch of baloney, what’s actually happening is admins are creating as much space between the money they’ve stolen and investors.

After one final exit-scam update, communication stops, website disappears etc. etc.

When BehindMLM reviewed Neura Technologies in November 2024 we noted Russia, France, Ukraine and Vietnam as top sources of website traffic.

Between December 2024 and January 2025, Neura Technologies saw a 25% reduction in website traffic. This and the corresponding reduced investment is the actual reason for the collapse.

As of January 2024, SimilarWeb’s tracked top sources of Neura Technologies website traffic were Russia (38%), France (16%), Azerbaijan (9%), Ukraine (7%) and Belarus (5%).

Neura Technologies’ Russian speaking-scammers appear to have gotten in and gotten out. Out of the above countries, only France saw any growth (28% month on month).

Total Neura Technologies investors and how much they’ve lost remains unknown.
