Brainstorm fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

Brainstorm’s website domain (“brainstorm.market”), was privately registered on September 12th, 2024.

Further research reveals Brainstorm marketing material citing CEO Jubbaer Miah:

Miah appears to be some random crypto bro from the UK, now residing in Dubai:

On its official YouTube channel, which for some reason isn’t linked from Brainstorm’s website, the native language of marketing videos is French.

Of note is Brainstorm marketing a “trading bootcamp in Dubai” last month:

From this we can ascertain Brainstorm is likely being run by French scammers in Dubai, hiding behind Jubbaer Miah as CEO.

Further supporting this is, as of February 2025, SimilarWeb tracking 100% of Brainstorm’s website traffic from France.

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:

  1. If someone lives in Dubai and approaches you about an MLM opportunity, they’re trying to scam you.
  2. 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 Brainstorm, read on for a full review.

  • Rank 2 affiliates earn a 6% Deposit Bonus
  • Rank 3 affiliates earn a 7% Deposit Bonus
  • Rank 4 affiliates earn an 8% Deposit Bonus
  • Rank 5 affiliates earn a 9% Deposit Bonus

ROI Match

Brainstorm 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.

Brainstorm caps unilevel team levels at fifteen.

The ROI Match is paid as a percentage of returns generated across these fifteen levels based on rank:

  • Rank 1 affiliates earn a 15% match on level 1 (personally recruited affiliates)
  • Rank 2 affiliates earn a 15% match on level 1 and 10% on level 2
  • Rank 3 affiliates earn a 15% match on level 1, 10% on level 2 and 7% on level 3
  • Rank 4 affiliates earn a 15% match on level 1, 10% on level 2, 7% on level 3 and 3% on levels 4 to 6
  • Rank 5 affiliates earn a 15% match on level 1, 10% on level 2, 7% on level 3, 3% on levels 4 to 6 and 2% on levels 7 to 9
  • Rank 6 affiliates earn a 15% match on level 1, 10% on level 2, 7% on level 3, 3% on levels 4 to 6, 2% on levels 7 to 9 and 1% on levels 10 to 15

Brainstorm Conclusion

Brainstorm’s website represents it generates ROI revenue via automated trading.

Our automatic solutions will put your money to work for you, while providing you with tailor-made support.

This marketing, along with Brainstorm’s business model, fails the Ponzi logic test.

If Brainstorm already has automated trading generating 35% a month minimum, what does it need your money for?

Additionally on the regulatory front Brainstorm’s investment opportunity triggers both securities and commodities registration requirements.

Brainstorm fails to provide evidence it has registered with securities and/or commodities regulators in any jurisdiction. This includes France’s AMF.

As it stands the only verifiable source of revenue entering Brainstorm is new investment.

Using new investment to pay ROI withdrawals would make Brainstorm a Ponzi scheme. Also with nothing marketed or sold to retail customers, the MLM side of Brainstorm operates as a pyramid scheme.

As with all Ponzi schemes, once affiliate recruitment dries up so too will new investment.

This will starve Brainstorm of ROI revenue, eventually prompting a collapse.

The math behind Ponzi schemes guarantees that when they collapse, the majority of participants lose money.
