Late last week Cellements announced it would be temporarily closing.
In a message posted on their website, the Cellements advised it was
forced to temporarily shut down all business related activities due to our new software provider, Naxum, not being able to live up to their promise and deliver a functional platform.
Naxum claims “there are indeed two sides to every story.” [Continue reading…]

A reader recently wrote in asking about Elepreneurs. They were considering the opportunity but noted BehindMLM hadn’t taken a look at it since early 2018.
Noting changes in the compensation plan, I queued Elepreneurs up for a rework.
Today we revisit Elepreneurs’ MLM opportunity with an updated review for 2020. [Continue reading…]

Autoxify Review: TRON smart-contract Ponzi cycler
Autoxify provides no information on its website about who owns or runs the company.
Autoxify’s website domain (“autoxify.com”) was privately registered on July 18th, 2020.
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…]
BTTycoon Review: BTT token securities fraud mobile app
BTTycoon provides no information on its website about who owns or runs the company.
As I write this BTTycoon’s website only offers a mobile subdomain, which is essentially a marketing pitch for the company’s app.
No information about who owns or runs BTTycoon is provided.
BTTycoon’s website domain (“bttycoon.net”) was registered on March 23rd, 2020. Domain ownership details are not available.
BTTycoon’s domain was purchased through a Chinese registrar. The company’s website is also hosted with a Chinese provider.
Along with BTTycoon’s marketing material being presented in Chinese, this suggests whoever owns the company at the very least speaks Chinese.
There’s a strong likelihood BTTycoon’s owner is based out of South-east Asia in a Chinese speaking country.
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…]

CoinJob Review: 4% daily bitcoin Ponzi scheme
CoinJob provides no information on its website about who owns or runs the company.
In an attempt to appear legitimate, CoinJob provides a UK incorporation certificate on its website.
The certificate corresponds with Coin Job LTD, incorporated on June 30th, 2020.
UK incorporation is dirt cheap and effectively unregulated. It is a favored jurisdiction for scammers looking to incorporate dodgy companies.
For the purpose of performing MLM due-diligence, UK incorporation is meaningless.
CoinJob’s website domain (“coinjob.biz”) was privately registered on June 4th, 2020.
At the time of publication Alexa ranks Bangladesh (28%), Vietnam (25%) and Turkey (17%), as the top three sources of traffic to CoinJob’s website.
Whoever is running CoinJob is likely based out of one of these three countries.
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…]
