OmegaPro’s Robert Velghe arrested in Turkey
Turkish authorities have arrested a second OmegaPro executive.
Robert Velghe was arrested in Istanbul on Tuesday, September 3rd.
Citing Velghe (right) as a Dutch executive of OmegaPro, De Telegraaf reported earlier today;
Our compatriot was arrested on Tuesday in the Turkish city from where OmegaPro mainly operated in practice, but his arrest was not immediately reported.
Turkish media reported Velghe’s arrest on Friday. As per a September 6th report from Sabah, Velghe travelled to Turkey following OmegaPro co-founder Andreas Szakacs’ arrest back in June.
Velghe arrived in Turkey on August 26 and registered at three separate hotels in Levent and Maslak, Istanbul, to avoid being caught.
Velghe visited Azakacs in Maltepe Prison on August 29th, triggering an alert set by Turkey’s Gendarmerie General Command.
Istanbul Provincial Gendarmerie Command and MİT conducted a joint operation on September 3 against Robert Velghe.
Upon being detained, Velghe is alleged to have attempted to reset his phone to destroy incriminating evidence.
Velghe is reported to have told Turkish authorities he was an OmegaPro manager but left the Ponzi scheme in 2019.
Turkish authorities appear to have evidence of Velghe promoting and running OmegaPro marketing webinars, post 2019.
Velghe was subsequently arrested and is presumed to now also be held at Maltepe Prison.
Prior to signing on as an OmegaPro founding executive, Velghe was a key figure in the Omnia Tech Ponzi scheme.
Omnia Tech collapsed in December 2018, paving the way for Velghe to immediately transition over to OmegaPro.
Turkish authorities have pegged OmegaPro losses at $4 billion. OmegaPro victims are reported to number around 3 million.
$4 billion would OmegaPro on par with Ruja Ignatova’s notorious OneCoin Ponzi scheme. Curiously, De Telegraaf reporting a link between OmegaPro and Onecoin.
Local investigators in Turkey see a link between OmegaPro and Ruja Ignatova.
The only two links between OneCoin and OmegaPro that I’m aware of is
- OmegaPro co-founder Andreas Szakacs was a top OneCoin promoter; and
- top OneCoin promoter and net-winner Igor Alberts funneling his OneCoin, DagCoin and Success Factory downline into OmegaPro in late 2022
Following OmegaPro also collapsing in late 2022, Quini Amores announced he was taking a break from scamming people. Alberts would go on to market Mavie Global, another Dubai based MLM crypto Ponzi.
Igor Alberts is a Dutch national. To date Dutch authorities have failed to take any action against top Dutch OneCoin scammers.
Now, potentially as a result, we have another Dutch national involved at the top levels of another $4 billion MLM crypto Ponzi.
As with OneCoin, other countries have been left to clean up the Netherland’s inability to regulate and/or prosecute MLM related Ponzi fraud.
As reviewed by BehindMLM in January 2019, OmegaPro was an MLM crypto Ponzi promising a 200% ROI over 16 months.
OmegaPro went on to collapse in November 2022. Co-founders Dilawar Singh (India/Germany) and Mike Sims (US) remain at large.
wonder who that may be?
How does something like this garner 3 billion $ in value.
How on earth does this go un-noticed in the Financial system
How on earth does this go un-noticed in media/social-media?
Don’t Forget OMP money which was an agency of Viola money with Cristopher Hamilton at the commands, and who was laundering the money of OneCOin.
Also the Payment of Omgapro clients which were partially coming from wallets loaded with 100.000 BTC sleeping since 2017
Make some additional connections to Onecoin (or suspicion for the wallet)
This was not un noticed on social Media , there was Gozzilions of articles and alerts from Financial authorities.
but as there was no victim till end 2022, no one complained and No lawsuit has ever been done during the recruitment period.
Was Eric Worre an executive of Omega Pro?

I would like to remind our readers that the former OneCoin scammers Rustem Bilialov from Lithuania (or Russia, he speaks Russian) and Aron Steinkeller also actively promoted OmegaPro. Both had frequent contact.
In this video from September 16, 2021, this was documented.

Great reporting, Oz. Appreciate all you do to shine a light on and expose all of the corruption.
I realize I’m asking a totally speculative question, but does anyone think that the narcissist Eric Worre will eventually get arrested? I mean, he was all over Omega Pro!
With Traders Domain it’s a possibility. I think Worre transitioned over to OmegaPro a bit too late for an arrest. Civil clawback litigation is more likely.
