Bonanza Global operates in the cryptocurrency MLM niche. Corporate information provided by Bonanza Global appears to be baloney. In an attempt to appear legitimate, Bonanza Global provides incorporation certificates for El Salvador and California in the US.

Newcrest Investments provides no credible executive information on their website. Newcrest’s website is full of poorly photoshopped stock photos of offices: A list of Newcrest Investments’ Board of Directors is provided… …however none of these people appear to exist in the real world.

In [Continue reading…]
