eComelize operates in the ecommerce MLM niche. The company provides corporate addresses in Delaware and Spain on its website.

The US address is residential and used by at least one other business. The Spanish address is a “business center” in Malaga.

I can confirm eComelize has no physical business operations in the US.

Heading up eComelize is founder and CEO Jan-Eric Nyman (right).

Nyman’s MLM roots date back to the Unaico SiteTalk pyramid scheme. More recently, Nyman gained notoriety as part of Duncan Arthur’s OneCoin dev team.

After OneCoin collapsed, Arthur rebranded his work there and continued to develop it as Bycoi.

ByCoi (BYC) was created as a cryptocurrency and is controlled, operated and owned by BCB Coinstrike Limited in London, United Kingdom.

Our goal is to make BYC a global utility cryptocurrency.

Bycoi was launched as an ecommerce alternative to OneCoin, without the baked in Ponzi scheme.

Although OneCoin was pitched to OneCoin investors with a 1:1 BYC token match, Arthur was adamant Bycoi would not be promoted via MLM.

This was throughout 2019 and initially Arthur retained his OneCoin development team to work on Bycoi.

That relationship however has since fractured.

In a video recorded February 22nd, Arthur identifies himself as the “creator, owner and sole shareholder of the Ovid brand “and just about every company behind it”.

Ovid is the ecommerce platform Bycoi is attached to (think OneCoin’s DealShaker).

Arthur goes on to claim “people have tried to take over (his) platform”.

[1:04] The staff I worked with, and we’ve had a very close relationship, have come to be very close together.

We launched a special-purpose vehicle, in fact two of them, in order to try and raise some capital to develop the platform.

Two things happened;

The first is that the platform has not been developed. Whatever happened to the money, I don’t know.

The second is that it was missold by two Norwegians, from OneDealerin Norway, who were acting without authority.

I’ve had to separate from that. I cannot be associated with it.

Arthur goes on to claim his companies are being cloned.

He doesn’t name Nyman in the video, but three weeks ago did serve him with an intellectual property theft cease and desist:

Putting two and two together, it seems Nyman has gone rogue and is or intends to launch eComelize on Arthur’s Bycoi platform.

eComelize wants to take the dynamics of e-commerce and the vision of new payments methods and systems to a global audience.

A group of experienced networkers decide to look for the best product out there, without trying to invent one by themselves.

One that is not trying to put all the fancy stuff on top that really gives no meaning to the everyday person. When we visualized into the future, it all came together. eComelize was then born.

A recent post on Jan-Eric Nyman’s Facebook page suggests he’s based out of Malaga.

This would appear to confirm eComelize is operated out of Spain.

Traffic Shout provides no information on its website about who owns or runs teh business.

Traffic Shout’s website domain (“trafficshout.com”) was privately registered registered in April 2019.

A PO Box address in Seychelles is provided on Traffic Shout’s website, which is meaningless for obvious reasons.

At the time of publication Alexa estimate Bangladesh is the only significant source of traffic to Traffic Shout’s website (64%).

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…]

The Omega Group Ponzi scheme appears to have collapsed, prompting CEO Bartosz Nafalksi to make a forty minute long excuse video.

Nafalski claims to have gotten involved in cryptocurrency sometime in 2018. He states Omega Group CFO Lucas Bozek approached him about starting up a mining facility.

Together with “Pawel”, a “leader”, and “Konrad”, head of Omega Group support, Nafalski and Bozek outfitted an old dairy farm for mining.

The business flopped and failed to generate profit.

Rather than take the loss however Nafalski claims Bozek convinced him to recoup their losses via MLM. [Continue reading…]

After Skyway Capital’s initial Ponzi scheme failed, the company jumped on the MLM crypto bandwagon.

When Skyway Capital’s initial token scheme failed, the company launched CryptoUnits.

When CryptoUnits failed Skyway Capital attempted to relaunch itself as New Economic Evolution of the World (NEEW).

Things appeared to be on the rocks last November, following Skyway Capital banning promotional material that mentioned itself or NEEW.

Now NEEW appears to have completely collapsed, prompting Skyway Capital to announce it’s terminating operations with itself. [Continue reading…]

In early 2018 Bitcoiin, not to be confused with bitcoin, launched its B2G pump and dump altcoin scheme.

In an attempt to differentiate themselves from the plethora of MLM shitcoin Ponzi schemes out there, Bitcoiin employed Steven Seagal as its Brand Ambassador.

On Wednesday, the SEC announced it had issued Seagal with a formal cease and desist. [Continue reading…]

ePayments Systems is one of the UK’s largest digital payments companies.

Well, it was… until the FCA unexpectedly shut it down on February 11th.

Along with the shutdown came a freeze order, trapping what is believed to be over £100 million in client funds.

Oh, and did I mention there’s an extremely interesting tie to OneCoin? [Continue reading…]

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

CoinOption’s website domain (“coinoption.net”) was privately registered on June 23rd, 2019.

In an attempt to appear legitimate, CoinOption provides UK incorporation details on their website.

The standard for UK incorporation is already virtually non-existent. Nevertheless, CoinOption provides a bogus “111222333” incorporation number.

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…]

TechVision’s website provides no information about who owns or runs the company.

Despite claiming it was formed in 2016, TechVision’s website domain registration was last updated in July 2019.

This is likely when the current owner took possession of the domain, as Alexa started tracking traffic a few months later in September.

Supporting this is the shell incorporation of the New Zealand company TechVision Limited on July 26th, 2019.

Long story short, TechVision didn’t exist until July 2019.

Listed as the owner of TechVision’s website domain is Benjamin Lengyel, through an address in Auckland, New Zealand.

Further research reveals this address actually belongs to virtual office merchant Regus.

Benjamin Lengyel doesn’t exist outside of TechVision’s marketing and what appears to be a recently created LinkedIn profile.

Given this, it’s unlikely Lengyel exists outside of TechVision’s New Zealand shell incorporation.

Benjamin Lengyel is played by what appears to be an actor in TechVision marketing material.

The actor has a distinct European accent, suggesting TechVision is in fact a European company pretending to operate out of New Zealand.

The video Lengyel features in is the usual spotless office tour with “paid to look busy” extras.

In one scene, a supposed “poker expert” whose supposed to be “implementing (Techvision’s) software”, is just someone pretending to read a public website and doodling with a pen.

One can safely assume what’s shown on the screens of TechVision’s other actor experts is similarly doctored content.

As to where TechVision is actually being run from, one possibility is the Netherlands.

Next month TechVision is gearing up to hold its first “leadership summit” in Uden.

The “main guest” of the event is Christel van Der Steen, credited as “the leading development leader of Techvision in the Netherlands”.

Van Der Steen’s partner (husband?) Ardy van Breugel is also credited as a Netherlands leader.

Van Der Steen’s LinkedIn profile  joined TechVision in September 2019. Prior to Techvision Van Der Steen was promoting the FutureNet and Cannerald Ponzi schemes.

Also attending TechVision’s leadership summit is “investor” Klemen Andlovec.

Andlovec began promoting TechVision on YouTube five months ago, which places him also joining in September 2019.

All of this points to TechVision likely being operated out of the Netherlands.
