Lado Okhotnikov’s Holiverse Ponzi collapses, Meta Whale reboot

Wanted fugitive Vladimir “Lado” Okhotnikov’s Holiverse Ponzi scheme has collapsed.

365 AI Review: AI ruse “click a button” Ponzi

365 AI fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

365 AI’s website domain (“365-ia.net”), was privately registered on April 30th, 2025.

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. [Continue reading…]


Vital Health Review: Illegal medical claims + autoship

Vital Health operates in the nutritional supplements MLM niche. The company states it was founded in February 2022.

Although it provides a US address tied to a Wyoming shell company on its websites, Vital Health appears to be based out of and run from Mexico.

Vital Health operates from two primary website domains:

  • vitalhealthglobal.com – privately registered on October 25th, 2021
  • vitalhealthint.com – privately registered on March 15th, 2024

Heading up Vital Health is CEO and co-founder Tony Rodriguez (right).

Rodriguez’s Vital Health corporate bio credits him with involvement

in network marketing for over 15 years. He has built top producing teams and has helped countless individuals achieve success in the industry.

Possibly due to language barriers, I was unable to verify this claim.

Vital Health has appeared on BehindMLM previously in relation to two lawsuits;

  1. Pruvit sued Vital Health in September 2024 alleging patent infringement
  2. Melaleuca sued Vital Health and Alex Reynoso in August 2024, alleging Reynoso was cross-recruiting his former Melaleuca downline into Vital Health

Pruvit and Vital Health reached a settlement in March 2025. The outcome of Melaleuca’s lawsuit remains pending.

Read on for a full review of Vital Health’s MLM opportunity. [Continue reading…]


iBuumerang withdrawals disabled for a month

About a month ago “ibuum Team” sent out an email urging promoters to withdraw from their then active payment processor;

You have only 2 DAYS LEFT to withdraw your current commission balance before our payment system upgrade.

TO BE SPECIFIC: You only need to withdraw your funds from our current payout partner’s e-wallet.

If your funds are still showing in your ibuumerang back office, you do not need to do anything.

We are working to transition to our new payout partner as quickly after the 18th as possible.

The payment processor was i-Payout. A visit to iBuumerang’s i-Payout merchant page confirms the account has been disabled:

This was on or around April 18th. To date iBuumerang withdrawals remain disabled. [Continue reading…]

Armen Temurian can’t produce Vista Network trading proof

Armen Temurian is having trouble providing Vista Network trading proof.

Perhaps not surprising, given BehindMLM pegged Vista Network as a MLM crypto Ponzi back in 2017. This tracks with a CFTC investigation, which led to a $7 million fraud lawsuit. [Continue reading…]


Websea USDT Review: Stolen identity “click a button” Ponzi

Websea USDT fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

Websea USDT operates from two known website domains:

  1. websea58usdt.vip – privately registered on April 2nd, 2025
  2. web-sea567-usdt.com – privately registered on April 21st, 2025

If we look at the source-code of Websea USDT’s website, we find Chinese:

This suggests whoever is running Websea USDT has ties to China.

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. [Continue reading…]
