Greenox Club Review: Robotina token investment fraud
Greenox Club provides no information on its website about who owns or runs the company.
Greenox Club’s website domain (“greenoxclub.com”) was privately registered on September 15th, 2018.
Greenox Club marketing videos suggest the company is being run by this guy:
No idea who he is but based on a May 2019 marketing video, he appears to be based out of Croatia.
Update 30th April 2020 – A reader wrote in and identified the above individual as Niko Mrdenovic.
Mrdenovic features on Robotina’s website as their SMO (social media optimization?).
According to Mrdenovic’s Robotina corporate bio;
After founding Greenox Smart Ltd., he helped various start-ups as Regional Sales Manager and marketing companies as Chief of Operations.
Our source claims
Mrdenovic lives in Slovenia. The official owner of Greenox Smart is Tina Hrsak (girlfriend of Niko Mrdenovic).
/end update
Supporting Greenox Club being operated out of Croatia is the use of euros to fund its compensation plan.
That said, Greenox Club’s primary investor-base seems to be Asians. Languages other than English provided on Greenox Club’s website are Japanese and South Korean.
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.
Greenox Club’s Products
Greenox Club has no retailable products or services, with affiliates only able to market Greenox Club affiliate membership itself.
Greenox Club’s Compensation Plan
Greenox Club affiliates start by purchasing Robotina (ROX) tokens from the company’s anonymous owner(s).
- Bronze – pay 100 EUR and receive €150 EUR worth of ROX
- Silver – pay €500 EUR and receive €700 EUR worth of ROX
- Gold – pay €2500 EUR and receive €2700 EUR worth of ROX plus €500 EUR worth of ROX set aside for trading (see below)
- Diamond – pay €5000 EUR and receive €5000 EUR worth of ROX plus €1950 EUR worth of ROX set aside for trading (see below)
Once acquired, affiliates place invested ROX into Greenox Club’s “ESCO” investment scheme.
In addition to mandatory ROX set aside for trading at the Gold and Diamond tiers, Greenox Club affiliates purchase ROX to invest in ESCO as follows:
- ESCO €100 – €15 EUR worth of ROX locked in ESCO 3 months and €75 EUR for 6 months, pays a 15% ROI after 6 months
- ESCO €1000 – €100 EUR worth of ROX locked in ESCO for 3 months and €800 EUR for 6 months, pays a 20% ROI after 6 months
- ESCO €5000 – €250 EUR worth of ROX locked in ESCO for 3 months and €4250 EUR for 6 months, pays a 20% ROI after 6 months
- ESCO €10,000 – €9000 EUR worth of ROX locked in ESCO for 6 months, pays a 25% ROI after 6 months
- ESCO €50,000 – €45,000 EUR worth of ROX locked in ESCO for 6 months, pays a 30% ROI after 6 months
Greenox Club don’t specify how the three month lock works but presumably it’s paid out at half the six month ROI.
Note that affiliates can also purchase ROX externally and place it into ESCO.
- Bronze tier affiliates are capped at having €500 EUR in ESCO
- Silver and higher affiliates have no ESCO investment cap

There are eleven affiliate ranks within Greenox Club’s compensation plan.
Along with their respective qualification criteria, they are as follows:
- Affiliate – sign up and pay affiliate membership fees
- Business Builder – generate 10,000 BV in accumulated weaker binary team side volume
- Team Leader – generate 25,000 BV in weaker binary team side volume
- Team Manager – generate 50,000 BV in accumulated weaker binary team side volume

- President – generate 5,000,000 BV in accumulated weaker binary team side volume
- Chairman – generate 10,000,000 BV in accumulated weaker binary team side volume
BV is generated via affiliate membership fees and ESCO package investment.
For specific BV amounts generated refer to “residual commissions” below.
Direct Referral Commissions
Greenox Club affiliates are paid both on newly recruited affiliate fees and ESCO package investment.
- 10% is paid on personally recruited affiliate fees
- 7% is paid on personally recruited ESCO package investment
Greenox Club state they pay direct referral bonuses in ROX is possible, otherwise in combination with EUR.
Residual Commissions
Greenox Club pays residual commissions via a binary compensation structure.
A binary compensation structure places an affiliate at the top of a binary team, split into two sides (left and right):
The first level of the binary team houses two positions. The second level of the binary team is generated by splitting these first two positions into another two positions each (4 positions).
Subsequent levels of the binary team are generated as required, with each new level housing twice as many positions as the previous level.
Positions in the binary team are filled via direct and indirect recruitment of affiliates. Note there is no limit to how deep a binary team can grow.
Payment of affiliate membership fees and ESCO package investment generates sales volume (BV) across the binary team.
- Bronze membership fees = 40 BV
- SIlver membership fees = 200 BV
- Gold membership fees = 1000 BV
- Diamond membership fees = 2000 BV
- ESCO €100 – 30 BV and 0.14 BV daily for six months
- ESCO €1000 – 300 BV and 1.4 BV daily for six months
- ESCO €5000 – 1500 BV and 7.5 BV daily for six months
- ESCO €10,000 – 3000 BV and 15 BV daily for six months
- ESCO €50,000 – 15,000 BV and 80 BV daily for six months
At the end of each week Greenox Club tallies up new BV generated on both sides of the binary team.
Affiliates are paid up to 10% of weaker binary team side BV, based on their membership tier:
- Bronze tier affiliates earn a 7% residual commission rate
- Silver tier affiliates earn an 8% residual commission rate
- Gold tier affiliates earn a 9% residual commission rate
- Diamond tier affiliates earn a 10% residual commission rate
Note that Greenox Club also caps weekly residual commissions based on rank:

Conclusion
As far as I can tell, Robotina appears to be independent from Greenox Club.
Well, sort of.
A video, titled “Greenox at Robotina’s headquarters 2018“, was uploaded to Greenox Club’s official YouTube channel in November 2018.
The video is Robotina branded and a few seconds in, is revealed to be the “first ROX presentation event”.
The cynic in me believes the event had nothing to do with Greenox Club.
In their marketing material however, Greenox Club openly refers to Robotina as a “business partner”.
This implies, at least on Greenox Club’s behalf, a professional relationship between the two companies.
If anyone knows who our mystery Croatian running Greenox Club events is, feel free to let us know in the comments below.
Otherwise Greenox Club is your typical MLM crypto Ponzi scheme… in ROX.
Mystery Croatian man or whoever he’s running Greenox Club with quite obviously is/are sitting on a ton of ROX. Enough at least to run a fraudulent investment opportunity with.
Greenox Club’s owner’s ROX stash is offloaded to gullible investors for EUR.
This is the only transfer of real money within Greenox Club. This is important to note, because the flow of money is from investors to admins.
Greenox Club pays returns and commissions in ROX tokens which remember, they have a ton of.
Affiliates wanting to cash out can do so via Greenox Club’s provided app. Or because the token is traded publicly, via an external exchange.
It is unclear whether Greenox Club’s owners recycle invested EUR. The compensation plan states they do but specific conditions are not clarified.
In any event at a minimum Greenox Club is committing securities fraud via its token investment scheme.
Greenox Club fails to provide evidence it has registered with the Croatian Financial Services Supervisory Agency, Korea’s Financial Services Commission or a financial regulator in any other jurisdiction.
Securities fraud is illegal in and of itself. At its worst though Greenox Club is recycling newly invested funds to pay existing investors – outside of ROX public trading, which isn’t much (hovering around $95,000 to $120,000 over the past few months).
By way of it having no retailable products or services, Greenox Club is also operating as a pyramid scheme.
ROX itself appears to be a pointless token. It’s currently trading at 5 cents, down from a 9 cent spike earlier this year.
If Greenox Club gets big enough, when the time comes for gullible investors to dump accumulated ROX, the public value will crash even further.
Not that Greenox Club’s Croatian admins will care. Remember, they take in EUR for ROX when new affiliates sign up.
Once affiliate recruitment dips to the point it’s no longer worth running Greenox Club, expect another “here today, gone tomorrow sorry for your loss” exit-scam to play out.
Hm, something tricky behind the video. If you know Croatians well then you would know they would not promote SLOVENIA in the video so much…
They would go to that Robotina partner in Slovenia and maybe to Ljubljana and Bled. They would promote Zagreb, Plitvicka lakes, Croatian Sea coast.
In this video there is just once mention Zagreb and few Croatian flags are seen at the “event”.
The title on video:”Greenox Croatia event march 2019.” is misleading with the purpose.
Behind this scam is someone from Slovenia for sure.
All looks very familiar to Urban Turnsek scams and his collapsed BYXPRESS scam.
You didn’t search well.
Director of Greenox is board member of Robotina. Robotina and Greenox are in this project together (robotinarox.io).
Robotina is high tech company with extraordinary results robotina.com
Robotina wouldn’t risk reputation dealing with some fraud.
Greenox should make website better, more transparent, and with more details, otherwise they risk people will get impression like this one about them.
l searched Robotina, IMO they will be leading company in their area very soon.
Actually, as with all our reviews, I researched as best I could.
As you note Greenox Club provide no information about who owns or runs the company. Not just on their website but anywhere they have a presence.
If a Board Member of Robotina is running Greenox Club, that’s inside information (which you likely only have because you’re an investor).
Yet here we are. Regardless of what Robotina is or isn’t, Greenox Club is committing securities fraud.
So what we’ve learnt so far is Robotina == Greenox Club and it’s all being run out of Slovenia.
Once we’ve got a name I’ll update the review.
Dear Sir,
I really appreciate the time you have put into creating this article. Although I would expect that a renown reporter such as yourself would put a little more time, skill and effort into digging the facts out before you jump to any conclusions.
I understand bad journalism is more popular than good one, but still…facts are facts. Opinions will always be just opinions and there is no other way around it.
So let me leave some links for you and make your work a bit easier when publishing article about Greenox or Robotina in the future:
I would suggest you read:
1. Who is Robotina
(Ozedit: marketing spam removed)
7. Find the correct compensation plan for Greenox
(the one you refer to is outdated, incomplete, incorrect and misinterpreted)
8. For better understanding of ESCO (Ozedit: snip, see below)
By answering yourself to all 7 things mentioned above you will find your article quiate strange and far from factual 🙂
Kind regards,
Kim
Dear Greenox Club scammers,
I know exactly what Robotina is (a pointless shit token nobody is using), and how it fits into Greenox Club’s Ponzi scheme.
Nope. 100% accurate.
Feel free to provide alternative compensation plan documentation (if you actually had it you’d already of provided it).
Instead of the “here’s a bunch of irrelevant marketing spam” approach, try address the facts presented in the review itself.
No amount of whitepaper or “but we’re working with Microsoft” etc. garbage is a substitute for Greenox Club registering itself with securities regulators.
As for ESCO; I invest EUR with Greenox Club, they offload ROX onto me and pay me an advertised ROI after 6 months (read: dump more Robotina onto me).
In terms of money, I surrender euros to Greenox Club’s owner(s) and over time baghold more and more of their dumped ROX.
Greenox Club’s fraudulent investment opportunity isn’t rocket science, so stop pretending nobody gets it.
Kim, the doctor of scam,
cant wait a few months you to be in all other media represented as scammers. You know, i sent you a message via your robotina webpage and i told you, you are probably in a big shit, scamming people around the world and “maybe” you even do not know what is happening.
After your message here, i am sure, you are completely aware about scamming, thats why you are actually posting comments here.
SCAM = gold, platinum, earn, invest, tokens, crypto, awards,…. just to remind you about your simple redneck slovenian wordings as you know them from 90s.
I will inform now all Slovenian media, police, financial police, tax office and NPU (Slovenian FBI) about you and lets see what they will say..
You are “smartly” scamming only asians for now. With this approach you would like to escape EU laws and hide behind the scam.
But, unfortunately you are wrong. I am here to destroy your scam ( pls note Slovenians are one of the “best” scammers in the world (since 90s they are scamming from behind – started with popular singer Bozidar Wolfand Wolf scam “Catch the Cash”)).
Oz, continue your great work!
Hi! Actually, I red your comment about Greenox and Robotina and would like to suggest, before you write some bullshit and share it on the web, you should at least examine the facts.
And the facts are very simple to get. This guy on the photo is running Greenox for real and he is not from Croatia!! He is from Slovenia like Robotina as well!
So, collect facts and don’t write BULLSHIT around the web. About robotina you can read at (Ozedit: spam removed)
Yes we’ve established Greenox Club == Robotina run from Slovenia.
Instead of crapping on about bullshit, how about you read (#3):
It’s amusing how you get butthurt at the suggestion a Slovenian scammer is from Croatia, instead of the scam itself.
The “facts” are that Greenox Club is nothing more than a Ponzi scheme run via worthless robotina tokens.
And no Greenox Club promoter seems to dare name who’s behind the scheme. Potential
investorsvictims can read into that as they want.MILAN ROBOTINA!! Thats his name!!
SLOVENIAN president for this scam.
There’s literally no mention of “Milan Robotina” anywhere on the internet.
Review updated with information on Niko Mrdenovic, owner of Greenox Club.
Also via email:
Note that a lot of this seems to be after the fact.
Greenox Club’s Alexa website ranking is currently 2.8 million, #RIP.
This sounded so much like total BS, a magical energy saving box, that I had to look it up. I learned the following.
(a) HEMS means Home Energy Management System, and it’s a generic term, not something Robotina-specific. They do what the name suggests, control the electricity and heating system of a house, to achieve maximum efficiency.
(b) Robotina makes such a HEMS device (among other things), and those are being used in genuine projects, by legitimate companies. For instance, I found them mentioned in a report for the European Union’s GOFLEX initiative (Generalized Operational FLEXibility for Integrating Renewables in the Distribution Grid), in a case study carried out by a German publicly owned electrity supplier.
(c) Most importantly: the presentation of them as quoted above is indeed total BS. Such a system only serves any purpose if three conditions are met:
1. The electrical wiring of the home is laid out for it (including having an array of inside and outside temperature and light sensors).
2. All electical appliances in the home, and all those sensors, can talk to the HEMS box.
3. the electricity grid is fully compatible with the system, and the company which supplies the electricy is also on-board, since the HEMS box must talk to those, too. A lot of the supposed costs savings are entirely dependent on the electricity supplier’s method of charging.
If all those conditions are met, it can reduce energy costs. By a hugely variable degree, depending on the home in question.
Buying one for an individual home is nonsense, these things can only serve any purpose when installed as part of a scheme managed by the electricity suppliers where you live.
Generally, there is something very strange about the way Robotina sells itself. The hardware products side seems quite normal and rather humdrum.
And then there is this whole ROX token business, and its associated “IoT platform”, whose marketing material consists only of grandiose hype, and is great for playing a game of Blockchain Bullshit Buzzword Bingo.
It all deals with things that clearly have got nothing at all to do with the manfacturing of what is just a computer-controlled switchbox (and some other electricity-related hardware). Stuff like:
But that’s really just the start. By the third quarter of this year, they will also be “Open for Non- Energy Business, safety, security, insurance, medical, AI”, and they will have added a “Social Service Module”, whatever that is.
And all that is going to be run by a small electronics manufacturer from Slovenia. How very realistic.
Just where the Greenox MLM thing fits into any of this remains a mystery to me. There doesn’t seem to be any mention of them anywhere. But otherwise, what is all this ROX token nonsense for? I can’t quite figure out what it is they’re trying to sell, to who.
One bit that made me laugh out loud was this:
Even using the most liberal possible definition of “device”, I don’t even have one tenth of that number of dumb devices currently in my home. Those are all going to have to be replaced, and then there are going to be well over 450 more added to that. All over the next one year and eight months.
What the hell are all those devices going to be doing (and smartly at that)? And who is going to pay for them – I certainly have no intention of buying them. I have all the devices I need, in fact, I have quite a few I don’t need at all.
