TelexFree @ BehindMLM

Just like their “European office” in London, TelexFree’s presence in Nevada constitutes nothing more than a smoke and mirrors cover for the scheme. Identified by the SEC as being nothing more than a “rent-a-space office in Las Vegas”, TelexFree ‘transacts virtually no business in the state, other than the recruitment of participants in the scheme‘.

The Unites States Trustee program is a component of the Department of Justice responsible for overseeing the administration of bankruptcy cases and private trustees. Under the party name “US Trustee”, the DoJ has now filed what is the first major opposition to TelexFree’s bankruptcy proceeding. The DoJ’s motion to appoint a “Chapter 11 trustee” addresses the [Continue reading…]

The Dominican Republic is emerging as one of the hardest hit TelexFree investor markets. Yet, despite a significant number of Dominicans investing in TelexFree, local authorities failed to take any action against the company or its top local promoters. Not because they didn’t know TelexFree was an unsustainable Ponzi scheme mind, but rather because their hands were tied behind [Continue reading…]

You’re at the top of a global billion dollar Ponzi scheme that recently collapsed, and was then shutdown by US regulators. If you’re Randy Crosby or Santiago De La Rosa, you disappear off into the night and are never heard from again. If your Faith Sloan, after attempting to brush off the severity of situation [Continue reading…]

Yesterday saw the continuation of the first day hearings in TelexFree’s bankruptcy application. Barring any additional information being made public, it looks like the hearing saw three significant events take place: The DoJ have formally objected to KCC’s fees and compensation Some of KCC’s actions have been “troubling” to the Judge presiding over the application A [Continue reading…]

The question of why this was only done now of course lingers, but that’s not the [Continue reading…]

When news broke that TelexFree’s Chief Financial Officer had been caught trying to escape with management’s retirement funds, the evidence the FBI presented in court was pretty conclusive. Filed in a Massachusetts District Court on April 16th, Scott Stanley, an attorney with the SEC filed the declaration of John Soares, a special agent with the [Continue reading…]

I’m seeing a whole bunch of crazy information getting pushed out there by TelexFree affiliates about the next tax hearing date. Dates in late April and May are all over the place, and many are citing some list of nine things that are apparently to be discussed. Meanwhile in reality, a single Judge has signed the [Continue reading…]

Turns out the SEC don’t trust TelexFree management at all. And after the revelation yesterday that Joseph Craft lied about his position in the company while trying to make off with $37.9 million dollars, who can blame them? The SEC pyramid scheme complaint against TelexFree was originally filed on the 15th of April, meaning it was [Continue reading…]

As agents from the FBI, Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement burst through the door of TelexFree’s Massachusetts head office, Joe Craft looked up from his laptop. “They’re early”. Craft had been running his laptop day and night in anticipation of a raid, deleting the mile-long paper trail that he hoped would throw regulators [Continue reading…]
