MarketPeak Review: PEAK token Ponzi scheme curator

MarketPeak operates in the MLM cryptocurrency niche. The company represents it is incorporated in Dubai, specifically;

PEAK TECH – FZCO, DSO-THUB, Dubai Silicon Oasis, Dubai – UAE

MarketPeak is headed up by CEO and co-founder Sergej Heck.

Most of the information available on Heck (right) is in German. That said I was able to verify information a reader sent in, tying Heck to a number of MLM Ponzi schemes.

Prior to founding MarketPeak Heck promoted Questra Global (this SteemIt article claims he convinced others to invest 9 million) and Cryp Trade Capital.

Heck also appears to have been involved in the BeOnPush Ponzi scheme in 2017.

There is of course no mention of any of these companies in Heck’s MarketPeak corporate bio. Instead Heck’s serial scamming is reduced to him supposedly being

famous for his enormous success in establishing a global sales team in only a matter of months.

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


Forsage Review: Ethereum based cash gifting scheme

Forsage provides no information on its website about who owns or runs the company. In fact Forsage claims it doesn’t have an admin.

The project Forsage no admin.

This is of course baloney, as someone obviously set up the company’s website and runs and profits from it.

The presence of Russian on Forsage’s default English language website suggests someone fluent in Russian is behind the company:

At the time of publication Alexa cites the US (22%), India (7%) and Venezuela (6%) as the top three sources of traffic to Forsage’s website.

Forsage’s website domain (“forsage.io”) was privately registered on February 9th, 2020.

 

Update 1st July 2020 – In a regulatory fraud warning, the Philippines SEC has outed Lado Okhotnikov as owner of Forsage.

This tracks with Forsage affiliate promotional material, which also cites Okhotnikov (right).

Okhotinov appears to reside in Moscow, Russia. However based on social media postings he is believed to currently be based out of Tbilisi, Georgia. /end update

 

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…]

Okaizo Review: OneCoin scammers launch CBD oil pyramid

Okaizo provides no information on its website about who owns or runs the business.

The only contact details provided is an address in Amsterdam in the Netherlands.

Further research reveals this address actually belongs to Regus, a virtual office provider.

On LinkedIn Bing Voorham (full name: Bernardus Johannes Gijsbertus Voorham), cites himself as Okaizo’s CEO and Founder.

Prior to Okaizo, Voorham was a promoter of the notorious OneCoin Ponzi scheme.

In May 2017 Voorham was cited by BusinessForHome as “one of OneLife’s most prominent leaders at the moment with $300,000 per month earnings”.

Through the UK shell company Okaizo Limited, Okaizo also has ties to Parwiz Daud, Nawid Habib and Abdulmansour Tawafi.

Like Voorham, Daud and Tawafi are also a former OneCoin scammers.

After OneCoin, circa mid 2018, Daud, Habib and Tawafi launched their own OneCoin Ponzi clone, AuLives.

At the time of publication Alexa rank AuLives’ website at over 10 million, which for a Ponzi scheme is as good as dead.

As per the screenshot above, Voorham’s LinkedIn profile places him in Andorra. Daud and Tawafi are from the UK.

According to LinkedIn, Nawid Habib’s failed ICO HeadStart company is/was based out of The Hague.

This suggests Habib (right) is Okaizo’s only link to the Netherlands.

Kangot Review: 300% ROI trading securities fraud

Kangot provides no information on its website about who owns or runs the company.

Kangot’s website domain (“kangot.com”) was registered on September 27th, 2019.

Roberto Gonzalez (right) is listed as the owner, through a residential address in the US state of Arizona.

Posts on Gonzalez’ Facebook profile (“Roberto X Gonzalez”, full name Robert Cantu Gonzalez) mention Bviral.

Gonzales is also the listed owner of BViral’s website domain.

Perusal of Gonzalez’ Facebook posts reveals BViral launched in mid to late 2018.

BViral itself is a lead generation tool based on “certificate incentives”.

Through the use of our certificate incentives, we help our clients generate leads, boost sales and increase referral business.

We help businesses be more profitable by providing quality travel certificates, vacation certificates and programs that achieve measurable economical results.

The concept appears to have flopped, as evidenced by Alexa assigning BViral’s website “unranked” status.

The precursor to BViral is Club Orenda of which Gonzalez was co-CEO of.

Club Orenda was a travel-based MLM opportunity that appears to have collapsed around late 2017 to early 2018.

Club Orenda launched in 2016. Prior to that Gonzales was promoting Zyndio (aka ZynTravel), a matrix cycler Ponzi scheme.

As discussed later in this review, Gonzales appears to have baked BViral into Kangot’s MLM offering.

BullRun Review: Ten-tier ethereum matrix cycler Ponzi

BullRun provides no information on their website about who owns or runs the business.

At the time of publication, Alexa cites Nigeria (29%), Cote d’Ivoire (21%) and Russia (7%) as top sources of traffic to BullRun’s website.

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…]
