OneCoin @ BehindMLM

With top OneCoin investors purportedly withdrawing millions of dollars from the scheme each month, new investors have little to no hope of recouping their own invested funds when the time comes.

Less than a month after OneCoin announced they had switched banks to JSC Capital Bank in Georgia (the country), OneCoin have again announced a change of banking details.
