Emris International Review: Weight loss tea & CBD oil

Emris International launched in 2019 and operates in the nutritional supplement MLM niche.

Heading up Emris International are co-founders Aspen Emry (CEO), Ilean Harris (CSO) and Matthew Harris (CVO).

“Emris International” is an amalgamation of the co-founders’ surnames.

Prior to founding Emris, Aspen Emry was promoting It Works.

Up until about a year ago Ilean Harris marketed herself as an MLM trainer and speaker.

Promo videos on Harris’ YouTube channel date back six years.

As per Matthew Harris’ bio, provided by MLM Nation podcast, he

discovered network marketing and struggled for years before he finally found “success.”

Matthew’s success ended in disappointment as 3 companies in a row were shut down or went out of business.

Matthew promised he would never do MLM again but later on realized he could never leave the profession so he decided to give it one more shot.

In his current company, Matthew made over $250,000 and built a team of 10,000 people in his first 6 months.

A Business For Home article published in 2017 ties Harris to Total Life Changes.

Harris’ YouTube channel reveals he was promoting Visalus before that. Harris stopped uploading to his YouTube channel three years ago.

Finalmente Global Review: Bitcoin “lending” Ponzi scheme

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

Finalmente Global’s website domain (“finalmenteglobal.com”) was first registered in August 2019. The registration is currently private and was last updated on May 30th, 2020.

Further research reveals videos on Finalmente Global’s official YouTube channel, citing Kobus van der Merwe as CEO of the company.

Prior to launching Finalmente Global, Merwe was promoting AdsEarn Bitcoin (aka AdsEarn BTC), a bitcoin Ponzi scheme.

On Facebook Finalmente Global claims to be “a company registered in South Africa”.

At the time of publication Alexa estimates the US is by far the largest source of traffic to Finalmente Global’s website (55%).

Lifestyle Marketing Group Review: $50 a month pyramid

Lifestyle Marketing Group operates in the ecommerce niche. The company provides a corporate address in California on its website.

Further research reveals a number of businesses operating out of the same address, suggesting it is virtual in nature.

Heading up Lifestyle Marketing Group is CEO Shain Hymon.

On Facebook Shain Hymon (right) goes by “Hymon Shain”. He cites himself as a “Field Supervisor/Customer Service & Sales at A-Line Messenger Service”.

Hymon’s personal YouTube channel reveals promotion of Javita dating back seven years.

We then jump to four years ago, where Hymon was promoting The Perfect Solution pyramid scheme.

The last The Perfect Solution marketing video uploaded to Hymon’s channel was on February 15th, 2017.

Lifestyle Marketing Group’s website domain (“lmg50.com”) was registered in April 2019.

In addition to running Lifestyle Marketing Group, recently Hymon has been promoting something called Jaa Lifestyle.

Upon visiting Jaa Lifestyle’s website, this is the first thing you see;

Register for FREE today and make up $1,000 per year, AND, Get FREE Future Shares in the company. NO WORK NEEDED!

From what I’ve seen Jaa Lifestyle looks awfully similar to Lifestyle Marketing Group.

I can’t confirm it’s a reboot clone yet, but I’ve added Jaa Lifestyle to the review list for a closer look. I’ll update here when it comes up.

In the meantime, read on for a full review of Lifestyle Marketing Group’s MLM opportunity. [Continue reading…]


Paybit Club Review: Failed crypto ecom platform pyramid

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

Paybit Club’s website domain (“paybitclub.com”) was registered on February 4th, 2020.

Paybit Marketing is listed as the owner through an Arizona suite address. The same address is provided on Paybit Club’s website.

Multiple businesses appear to use the same address, suggesting it is virtual in nature.

Multiple Paybit Club marketing videos on YouTube feature Jairo Flores. In offsite marketing, Flores (right) is cited as one of Paybit Club’s founders.

Prior to founding Paybit Club, Flores was promoting a skin cream on Facebook called Vit Pura. I wasn’t able to confirm whether there was a business opportunity attached.

MLM schemes I was able to confirm Flores promoted in the past include Brain Abundance, Lucrazon Global and Epic Fuel Tabs.

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


Passive Expert Review: Ad Pack bitcoin Ponzi scheme

Passive Expert’s website cites Lee Merritt as CEO and founder of the company.

Lee Merritt is the CEO and founder of Passive Expert, from the United Kingdom.

He’s spent the last few years as a successful entrepreneur in the crypto space.

This is accompanied by a marketing video, uploaded to Crypto Analyzer’s YouTube channel on March 21st, 2020.

Crypto Analyzer (aka Gary Jeremiah Handley) uses his YouTube channel to promote multiple MLM Ponzi schemes.

Passive Expert’s website domain (“passive.expert”) was privately registered on March 4th, 2020.

Up until six months ago Merritt promoted the Karatbars International Ponzi scheme.

It’s likely Passive Expert was launched to recoup Merritt’s KBC losses.

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…]
