SourceLess Review: NFT domain pyramid scheme

SourceLess operates in the MLM cryptocurrency niche.

A US address provided on SourceLess’ website belongs to Harvard Business Services, Inc. Harvard Business Services, Inc. sells Delaware company formation and mail forwarding services.

Heading up SourceLess is founder and CEO Alexandru Stratulat.

Alexandru is based out of Romania and, prior to SourceLess, founded Ccoin.

Ccoin was a pump and dump crypto scam built around its CCOS token. Ccoin appears to have collapsed in early 2022.

What’s left of Ccoin operates as Ccoin Finance. Ccoin Finance sells VISA debit cards attached to its internal crypto accounts.

SourceLess launched around 2020 and, at least on some level, appears to have been integrated into Ccoin.

 

Update 24th June 2025 – Prior to getting involved in crypto fraud, Stratulat was involved in organized crime.

In 2017 Stratulat, then 33, was arrested by Romanian authorities on a warrant tied to financial fraud.

Police officers from the 1st Rural Section of Constanța detected, on October 30 this year, a 33-year-old man, Alexandru Marius Stratulat, from Valu lui Traian, Constanța County, in whose name the Brașov Court issued a warrant for the execution of a sentence of 5 years and 4 months in prison, for committing the crime of carrying out fraudulent financial operations.

He was placed in the Poarta Albă Penitentiary.

Stratulat and the “criminal group” he was in were caught with ATM skimming devices.

During the home searches, instructions for making the devices were found, photos of ATM models from various banks, and from the first computer searches carried out, hundreds of series of bank cards were identified.

The estimated value of the damage exceeds 1 million lei.

In addition to Stratulat being based out of Romania, SourceLess’ official FaceBook page is also managed from Romania:

From this we can ascertain, as opposed to the US, SourceLess is based out of and operated from Romania.

SourceLess’ first two “source-less.com” and “sourceless.io” website domains have been abandoned. Today SourceLess operates from “sourceless.net”, registered through a Romanian address on February 10th, 2024.

Satoshi Square Table Review: Sam Lee resurrects HyperFund

Satoshi Square Table operates in the MLM cryptocurrency niche.

Satoshi Stable’s website domain (“satoshistable.com”), was privately registered on December 6th, 2024.

Serial fraudster Sam Lee is cited as Satoshi Square Table’s CEO.

Xue Samuel Lee is a wanted fugitive hiding in Dubai.

With partner-in-crime Ryan Xu, Lee launched HyperCash, HyperCapitalHyperFund and Hyperverse – all Ponzi schemes in which the majority of investors lost money.

After those Hyper* Ponzi schemes came HyperNation and HyperOne, although Lee’s direct involvement in those follow-ups is less clear.

Lee spent most of 2022 hiding in his Dubai apartment. Originally from Australia, Lee fled to the MLM crime capital of the world in 2021 as HyperFund took off.

In late 2022 Lee reemerged with StableDAO. Aimed at victims of Lee’s previous scams, StableDAO pitched an 11% a month return.

StableDAO also served as a scam incubator platform, through which Lee has launched StableOpinion and VidiLook.

StableOpinion failed to gain any significant traction. VidiLook did but collapsed on April 21st.

Fresh off VidiLook’s collapse We Are All Satoshi launched, marking Lee’s third StableDAO spinoff. We Are All Satoshi collapsed in September 2023.

In January 2024 Lee and two conspirators were indicted on HyperFund related fraud charges. The SEC filed parallel civil fraud charges against Lee that same month.

In October 2024 Lee was detained in Dubai on an Interpol arrest warrant. Lee was released in December 2024 and, as at time of publication, remains a fugitive wanted by US authorities.

Treasure NFT Review: NFT trading “click a button” Ponzi

Treasure NFT fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

Treasure NFT’s website domain (“treasurenft.xyz”), was registered in July 2022. The private registration was last updated on June 28th, 2024.

If we look through Treasure NFT’s website source-code, we find references to Meiqia.

Meiqia is a Chinese software company based out of Beijing. This suggests whoever is running Treasure NFT has ties to China.
