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

This is because Fortescue has stolen the name and logo of Fortescue Metals Group, a mining company based out of Australia.

Fortescue operates from the website domain “fortescue.cc”, registered with bogus details on May 10th, 2023.

As to who’s running Fortescue, it’s likely a group of scammers tied to China:

This tracks with Fortescue’s website domain being registered through Alibaba.

As always, if an MLM company is not openly upfront about who is running or owns it, think long and hard about joining and/or handing over any money.

Fortescue Conclusion

Fortescue is yet another “click a button” app Ponzi scheme.

Fortescue don’t specify the ruse behind affiliates having to log in daily and “click a button”, but it’s assumed to be some baloney about mining profits.

Just so we’re clear, Fortescue the app scam has nothing to do with Fortescue Metals Group.

The scammers behind Fortescue the app scam have stolen Fortescue Metal Group’s logo and are attempting to impersonate the company.

Be it mining revenue or some other nonsense, it should be obvious that logging into Fortescue’s app and clicking a button doesn’t generate any revenue.

All Fortescue are doing is recycling newly invested funds to pay earlier investors.

Fortescue is part of a group of “click a button” app Ponzis that have emerged since late 2021.

Including Fortescue, BehindMLM has thus far documented fifty-four “click a button” app Ponzis. Most of them last a few weeks to a few months before collapsing.

“Click a button” app Ponzis disappear by disabling both their websites and app. This tends to happen without notice, leaving the majority of investors with a loss (inevitable Ponzi math).

The same group of Chinese scammers are believed to be behind the “click a button” app Ponzi plague.

 

Update 1st June 2023 – In between me researching this review and publishing it, Fortescue has collapsed.

I believe the Ponzi scheme’s website went down a few days ago without warning.

 

Update 27th November 2024 – The Fortescue “click a button” Ponzi has been rebooted as Fortescue VIP.

Fortescue VIP operates from “ai.fortescue-vip.net”, registered with bogus details on November 6th, 2024.

The Central Bank of Russia issued a Fortescue VIP pyramid fraud warning on November 26th, 2024.
