Arm Trade Review: AI trading bot ruse Ponzi
Arm Trade, or Advanced Robotic Management Trade, fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.
Arm Trade’s website domain (“armtrades.com”), was privately registered on June 27th, 2023.
Of note is Arm Trade citing “Dubai Time Zone” in their marketing material:
Due to the proliferation of scams and failure to enforce securities fraud regulation, BehindMLM ranks Dubai as the MLM crime capital of the world.
BehindMLM’s guidelines for Dubai are:
- If someone lives in Dubai and approaches you about an MLM opportunity, they’re trying to scam you.
- If an MLM company is based out of or represents it has ties to Dubai, it’s a scam.
If you want to know specifically how this applies to Arm Trade, read on for a full review.
Arm Trade’s Products
Arm Trade has no retailable products or services.
Affiliates are only able to market Arm Trade affiliate membership itself.
Arm Trade’s Compensation Plan
Arm Trade affiliates invest tether (USDT). This is done on the promise of a passive return.
Invest 10 USDT or more and receive:
- 0.75% a day for the first 10 days
- 1% a day for the next 10 days and then
- 1.5% a day for another 10 days
Note if a withdrawal is made before the thirty days is up the ROI rate resets back to 0.75%.
Arm Trade pays a ROI Match via a unilevel compensation structure.
A unilevel compensation structure places an affiliate at the top of a unilevel team, with every personally recruited affiliate placed directly under them (level 1):
If any level 1 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 2 of the original affiliate’s unilevel team.
If any level 2 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 3 and so on and so forth down a theoretical infinite number of levels.
Arm Trade caps the ROI Match at eight unilevel team levels:
- level 1 (personally recruited affiliates) – 6% match
- level 2 – 3% match
- levels 3 and 4 – 1.5% match
- levels 5 to 8 – 1% match
Joining Arm Trade
Arm Trade affiliate membership is free.
Full participation in the attached income opportunity requires a minimum 10 USDT investment.
Arm Trade Conclusion
Arm Trade represents it generates external revenue through the use of AI trading bots:
Arm Trade fails to provide verifiable evidence it generates external revenue of any kind.
Furthermore, Arm Trade’s business model fails the Ponzi logic test.
If Arm Trade is already generating up to 1.5% a day through the use of bots, what do they need your money for? And why is Arm Trade providing you access to these return rates at no cost?
As it stands, the only verifiable source of revenue entering Arm Trade is new investment.
Using new investment to pay ROI withdrawals would make Arm Trade a Ponzi scheme.
The designation of “2.0” on Arm Trade’s website suggests it has already collapsed once:
As with all MLM Ponzi schemes, once affiliate recruitment dries up so too will new investment.
This will starve Arm Trade of ROI revenue, eventually prompting a collapse.
Math guarantees that the majority of participants in Ponzi schemes lose money.
