Learn Build Lead provides no information on its website about who owns or runs the company.

This is likely because, at least as far as I can tell, Learn Build Lead is a continuation of the LEO Ponzi scheme.

A former LEO affiliate reached out wanting more information on Learn Build Lead.

According to them LEO affiliates are able to log in to Learn Build Lead with their LEO credentials. Once logged in, their LEO backoffice details are available.

Supporting this is the fact that LEO’s “Learn Earn Own” website was recently pulled offline.

LEO was a Ponzi scheme run Dan Andersson. The scheme collapsed in mid 2019, amid ongoing reports Andersson was arrested on criminal charges in Pakistan.

As of May 2020 Andersson is believed to have been released and residing in the UK.

Should Andersson ever return to Pakistan, apparently there is an arrest-warrant on his head.

To the best of my knowledge Andersson hasn’t made a public appearance since leaving Pakistan.

This presents two scenarios;

1. Learn Build Lead is being run by Andersson in secret; or
2. Andersson sold off the LEO affiliate database to whoever is running Learn Build Lead.

Neither scenario lends itself to the establishment of a legitimate MLM company.

Learn Build Lead’s website domain (“learnbuildlead.com”) was privately registered on March 29th, 2020.

Learn Build Lead claims to be “headquartered is in the USA” [sic].

LBL is committed to lifelong learning. Headquartered is in the USA, out footprints are spread across the world.

An address in Claymore, Delaware is provided. Given the ties to LEO however, these details are assumed to be a dead end.

Supporting this is Learn Build Lead charging affiliate fees in GBP.

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…]

BetPlay365 provides no information on its website about who owns or runs the company.

BetPlay365’s primary website domain (“betplay365.com”) was last registered in April 2019. The registration details were updated on April 21st, 2020.

Through the Wayback Machine I was able to verify the domain redirected to a Blogspot blog as of May 2019. This suggests the current owners took possession of BetPlay365’s domain last month.

BetPlay365 also runs a .NET domain at “betplay365.net”.

The .NET domain was privately registered on January 24th, 2020. The first promo video on BetPlay365’s YouTube channel was uploaded on February 29th, 2020.

This suggests the .NET domain was registered and used pending acquisition of the .COM equivalent. At the time it might be been unclear whether or not BetPlay365 would be able to acquire the .COM domain.

The footer of BetPlay365’s website contains the following information:

All Betplay365 products and games are jointly operated by Global Game Arena LTD and Novus solutions Curacao N.V registered address Heelsumstraat 51,E-Commerce Park Curaçao, a company licensed and regulated by the laws of Curacao under the Antillephone n.v. license number 8048/JAZ2014-053.

Global Game Arena was launched by Frode Jorgensen (right) and Daniel Grenon in April 2019.

The gaming themed MLM company combined Ponzi points with illegal gambling.

Within two weeks of our first review, Global Game Arena collapsed.

In September 2019 Frode Jorgensen rebooted Global Game Arena, doubling down on investment fraud.

Today Global Game Arena’s website domains redirect to BetPlay365. For all intents and purposes, BetPlay365 is the third reboot of Global Game Arena.

By the time Jorgensen rebooted Global Game Arena in late 2019, Daniel Grenon was off promoting other Ponzi schemes.

I was able to confirm Jorgensen is still attached to BetPlay365 but as with the 2019 reboot, whether he’s acting alone or with others is unknown.

Last we heard Jorgensen was residing in Thailand. Any ties BetPlay365 has to Curacao are thus superficial.

Nui’s “Nui International” Ponzi scheme is particularly popular in Brazil.

As I write this Alexa estimates 44% of traffic to Nui International’s website originates from Brazil.

Not everyone is on board though.

Last October the YouTube channel “Reis das Financas” published a general alert on Nui Social. A followup video was published back in February.

Nui’s Brazilian arm didn’t appreciate the videos, and took Google to court in an attempt to get them removed. [Continue reading…]

AARP’s stated mission is to “empower people to choose how they live as they age.”

For some reason part of that mission is pushing a pyramid scheme onto its members. [Continue reading…]

A few weeks back a reader wrote in requesting an Elken Global review.

The company came up for review today. As I began to research Elken Global, it soon became apparent that something was up.

What started as a traditional BehindMLM review is thus now a question about the status of the company. Here’s what I found. [Continue reading…]

I was going through my daily news research today when I came across this headline from BusinessForHome:

Having previous knowledge of the nonsense claims Healy World makes about its little device, I was surprised to see the FDA was on board.

Not surprisingly, when I looked into it I found out they weren’t. [Continue reading…]

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

BitpaxOSGlobal’s website domain (“bitpaxosglobal.com”) was registered on March 23rd, 2020.

Bitearn LTD is listed as the owner, through a residential address in Brooklyn, New York.

BitEarn is a collapsed Ponzi scheme from 2018 run by a person or persons unknown.

SuperOne launched two years ago as an ethereum smart contract Ponzi scheme.

The company sold SuperOne token lottery tickets for 0.1 ETH each. Lottery winners were allegedly selected by “proprietary algorithms”.

On the back-end affiliate investors were able to invest in and cash out SuperOne tokens, which went up in value as more ethereum was invested.

The MLM side of SuperOne’s business model was pyramid recruitment.

You signed up, invest in SuperOne tokens and commissions were paid when you recruited others who did the same.

Of the two billion SuperOne tokens created out of thin air, founder Andreas Christensen retained half.

SuperOne collapsed shortly after launch, leaving Christensen and initial investors bagholding worthless tokens.

In an effort to create an opportunity to sell off SuperOne tokens, a few months ago the company was resurrected.

Same company owner, same tokens… but they’ve added a mobile game and changed the comp plan up.

Andreas Christensen (right) is from Norway. Whether he’s running SuperOne from Norway or elsewhere however is unclear.

SuperOne is incorporated in the UK as “SuperOne Limited”.

UK incorporation is dirt cheap and effectively unregulated. It is a favored jurisdiction for scammers looking to incorporate dodgy companies.

Christensen was not disclosed as the owner of the company on SuperOne’s launch website in 2018.

Two years on and SuperOne’s website still fails to provide company ownership and management information.

In light of the relaunch and changes to the business, today we’re revisiting SuperOne for an updated review. [Continue reading…]
