AffluentFX Network fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

AffluentFX Network’s website domain (“affluentfx.network”), was privately registered on March 15th, 2023.

On April 6th, a few weeks after AffluentFX Network’s website domain was registered, a marketing video was uploaded to a YouTube channel bearing the name “Affluent FX”:

I don’t have a name to go with the face but the individual hosting the webinar as “AffluentFX” has an African accent.

When demoing how to sign up, AffluentFX Network’s website defaults to South Africa.

This strongly suggests whoever is running AffluentFX Network is based out of Africa.

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

Iconatek’s website domain (“iconatek.io”), was privately registered on April 27th, 2023.

If we take a look at Iconatek’s website source-code, we find a references to iVicsant Technologies.

iVicsant Technologies is a software developer catering to Spanish-speaking clientele.

The company doesn’t appear to exist outside of a WhatsApp contact number.

Regardless, from this we learn the admin of Iconatek likely speaks Spanish. We also can’t rule out whoever is running iVicsant Technologies is also running Iconatek.

Unionview Investment fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

Unionview Investment’s website domain (“unionviewinvestment.com”), was privately registered on June 6th, 2023.

In an attempt to appear legitimate, Unionview Investment provides two corporate addresses on its website; one in the US and one in the UK.

The US address is a virtual address purchased through DaVinci Virtual. The UK address appears to be rentable office space that has nothing to do with Unionview Investment.

Although it’s not linked off their website, Unionview investment has an official YouTube channel.

There we find marketing videos featuring Fiverr actors standing in front of a green screen.

This is typical of non-native English speaking admins.

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

Cryptex’s website domain (“cryptex.to”), was privately registered in August 2020. Based on its website source-code, Cryptex appears to have been put together circa June 2021 or so.

SimilarWeb currently tracks top sources of traffic to Cryptex’s website as Germany (82%), El Salvador (8%) and Martinique (3%).

Although not definitive, the percentage of traffic coming from Germany suggests whoever is running Cryptex might have ties to Germany.

It’s worth noting that despite the domain age, Cryptex was relatively dead until early 2023.
