Let’s Yarn Review: Etsy themed “click a button” app Ponzi
Let’s Yarn provides no credible information on its website about who owns or runs the company.
In place of actual company ownership information, Let’s Yarn provides corporate information for Etsy. This information is copied from Etsy’s Wikipedia entry.
Let’s Yarn’s website domain (“letsyarn.com”), was first registered in 2019.
The registration was last updated with bogus details on March 15th, 2022. I believe this is when the current owner(s) took possession of the domain.
if we take a look at Let’s Yarn’s website source-code, we can see localization is set to Chinese:
This strongly suggests whoever is running Let’s Yarn has ties to China.
SimilarWeb ranks top sources of traffic to Let’s Yarn’s website as Switzerland (75%), Russia (6%) and Belarus (5%).
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.

Let’s Yarn Conclusion
Whereas we’ve seen “click a button” app Ponzis represent they have partnerships with legitimate companies, Let’s Yarn falsely represents it is Etsy.
I don’t think I need to explain why that’s nonsensical.
The “click a button” ruse behind Let’s Yarn’s Ponzi is clicking a button generates Etsy orders. And this somehow translates into revenue to pay returns with.
This is of course baloney. All Let’s Yarn are doing is recycling invested funds to pay returns.
Let’s Yarn is part of a group of “click a button” app Ponzis launched over the past few months.
Thus far BehindMLM has documented:

All the recent app-based task Ponzis appear to be launched by the same group of scammers.
Based on the use of simplified Chinese, I suspect the group are operating out of China or Singapore.
