Ventrobi fails to provide verifiable ownership or executive information on its website.

Ventrobi presents photos of executives on its website. They are cropped photos edited onto a generic lounge background.

Supposedly Ventrobi is headed up by founder and CEO “Rafael Akbarov”:

Akbarov however doesn’t exist outside of Ventrobi’s marketing. This makes him a prime Boris CEO candidate.

Supporting this is the actor playing Akbarov claiming he doesn’t speak English on official Ventrobi webinars.

Ventrobi also provides investors with a classic rented office marketing video.

Actual people we can tie to Ventrobi are Tim Waider and Josh Berman.

Tim Waider hosts official Ventrobi marketing webinars:

Waider made a name for himself in One World Network, before joining Total Life Changes in 2020.

After that Waider got into MLM crypto Ponzi promotion. Collapsed scams Waider has promoted include Tradixis, Capitalium, EtherConnect, Nimbus Platform, FastBNB, BitMonsters and InvesableAI.

After Tradixis in March 2024, Waider went on to launch TradeTribe in April 2024.

TradeTribe’s website is still online but SimilarWeb tracked just ~3100 monthly website visits as of November 2024. In other words, TradeTribe collapsed before Ventrobi was launched.

Josh Berman hosts official Ventrobi marketing presentation videos:

Like Waider, Berman is also a serial promoter of fraudulent investment schemes.

The Texas State Securities Board named Berman as BitSports securities fraud cease and desist Respondent in November 2023.

The C&D order claimed Berman and Sean Kelly were promoting BitSports and GSPartners, two collapsed fraudulent investment schemes, through the Berman Investment Group.

Incomation, Daisy AI, iX Global, NovaTech FX and Automated Capital are all fraudulent MLM investment schemes.

I don’t have anything definitive on who exactly is running Ventrobi but there are these facts to consider;

  1. Boris CEO Ponzi schemes are typically run by Russian and/or Ukrainian scammers
  2. Tim Waider is from and lives in Ukraine
  3. Tim Waider has already been at the center of two collapsed MLM crypto Ponzi schemes in 2024

But yeah, some random guy from Azerbaijan who nobody has ever heard of is probably running Ventrobi.

One final note is Ventrobi launching on the domain “ventrobi.com”.

Without explanation, Ventrobi abandoned its original domain for “ventrobi.io” on December 30th.

As above, Ventrobi’s website unexpectedly went down and was covered up with “maintenance”.

This then resulted in the new website domain being registered and deployed a few hours later.

Something went down beyond Ventrobi’s control and that should raise eyebrows.

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.

 Referral Commissions

Ventrobi pays referral commissions 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.

Ventrobi caps payable unilevel team levels at eight.

Ventrobi Conclusion

There’s not much to Ventrobi, it’s the same trading ruse MLM crypto Ponzi model as countless other scams Tim Waider and Josh Berman have promoted.

On the regulatory front Ventrobi’s passive returns investment scheme constitutes a securities offering.

Ventrobi fails to provide evidence it has registered with financial regulators in any jurisdiction.

This means that, at a minimum, Ventrobi is committing securities fraud.

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

The use of new investment to pay ROI withdrawls would make Ventrobi a Ponzi scheme.

Additionally with nothing marketed or sold to retail customers, the MLM side of Ventrobi operates as a pyramid scheme.

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

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

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