Perfectly Posh was launched in 2011 by founder Ann Dalton. The company sold a range of personal care products.

Circa early 2020 Perfectly Posh was sold off to LaCore Enterprises. This is around the time BehindMLM published its Perfectly Posh review.

In June 2022 LaCore Enterprises merged Perfectly Posh with Innov8tive Nutrition.

This internal merger saw Perfectly Posh products sold through Innov8tive Nutrition website. Perfectly Posh as its own entity ceased to exist.

Today Perfectly Posh’s products are nowhere to be found on Innov8tive Nutrition’s website.

In February 2024 Andrew McBride, citing himself as Perfectly Posh’s “original founder” published a series of videos on his YouTube channel.

In the the first video, dated February 26th and titled “Andrew returns to Posh“, McBride details a resurrection of the Perfectly Posh brand.

I’ve been back about eight to ten weeks and we’ve been working really hard. And what we’re trying to do is not something really hifalutin, we’re trying to get back to the basics.

We’re trying to get back to the basics of great products, great marketing and great distribution.

And I think that Posh has pockets of greatness but in some ways has drifted away from doing the basics really well.

The product strategy was so bad that for a few years there that it probably felt like something new was coming out every week or every few days.

McBride goes on to claim, under ownership of LaCore Enterprises, that Perfectly Posh’s products “have not stayed true to the Posh brand”.

We’re going to focus a lot more on bringing back the signature products and fragrances that helped Posh to grow in the first place.

Today Perfectly Posh’s website is available again with LaCore Enterprises’ Texas address in the website footer.

From this we can surmise McBride has been hired to front Perfectly Posh, as opposed to purchasing the company.

As to McBride’s MLM history, McBride credits himself with being “instrumental in the establishment, growth, and success of” Scentsy circa 2008 to 2011.

McBride’s run with Perfectly Posh began in 2011 and ended in 2017. Later in 2017 McBride went on to launch Because Cosmetics with wife Emily.

Because Cosmetics is a non-MLM company that sells personal care products.

Despite Perfectly Posh’s 2024 reboot Because Cosmetics’ website is still up. SimilarWeb tracked ~4600 monthly visits to Because Cosmetics website for April 2024, down from ~9700 in March.

Despite still appearing to be owned by LaCore Enterprises, there is no mention of LaCore Enterprises on Perfectly Posh’s website.

Oddly enough there’s no mention of Andrew McBride either (McBride is however cited as Perfectly Posh’s CEO in the compensation plan).

The Shao Bank Ponzi scheme has collapsed.

Earlier this week Shao Bank’s website was pulled offline. At time of publication Shao Bank’s domain remains inaccessible.

Instead of just being honest about collapsing however, ShaoBank is playing domain musical chairs in an attempt to further defraud consumers. [Continue reading…]

Infinity Global was a pyramid scheme launched in 2021.

As an MLM company, Infinity Global’s business model was simple: purchase “bitex packages” and get paid to recruit others who do the same.

When exactly Infinity Global collapsed is unclear but a visit to the company’s website domain now redirects to Therus Network.

Therus Network operates from the domain “therusnetwork.com”, privately registered on June 19th, 2023.

Therus Network’s official FaceBook page was created on February 7th, 2024, which is probably around the time the reboot launched.

The last post on Infinity Global’s official FaceBook page (which for some reason is still linked to on Therus Network’s website), is dated March 2nd, 2024.

Heading up Therus Network we have what appears to be a carryover Infinity Global team, led by CEO Leopoldo Castillo.

On its website Therus Network provides New York and Costa Rica corporate addresses.

Therus Network’s New York address belongs to virtual address company Regus. This suggests Therus Network has no actual ties to New York.

Whether Therus Network has any physical ties to its provided Costa Rica address is unclear.

As of April 2024, SimilarWeb tracked top sources of traffic to Therus Network’s website as Costa Rica (49%), Chile (41%) and Spain (10%).

This tracks with Infinity Global primarily targeting Spanish-speaking countries across Central and South America.

AgiGPT-QT4 fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

AgiGPT-QT4’s website domain (“agigptqt.ca”), was privately registered on April 20th, 2024.

If we look at the source-code of AgiGPT-QT4’s website, we find Chinese:

This suggests whoever is running AgiGPT-QT4 has ties to China.

Interlink Wealth Solutions fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

Interlink Wealth Solutions’ website domain (“interlinkwealth.com”), was privately registered on April 7th, 2024.

In the FAQ section of Interlink Wealth Solutions’ website, the company states;

Interlink Wealth Solutions “formerly GlobalHawk7” originated in Australia in the fall 2017 and quickly expanded to New Zealand, followed by the U.K..

In May of 2022 GlobalHawk7 expanded to North America (Canada and the United States). A full global expansion encompassing the globe began in September 2023.

GlobalHawk7 (aka GlobalHawk) operated from the domain “globalhawk7.com”. The domain now redirects to Interlink Wealth Solutions.

Through the Wayback Machine, we can see that GlobalHawk7 and Interlink Wealth Solutions are clones of each other (same WordPress theme).

GlobalHawk7’s website went live circa August 2021. Interlink Wealth Solutions appears to be a recently launched reboot following GlobalHawk7’s collapse.

Citation of “FedEx” in Interlink Wealth Solutions’ marketing suggests the company is being run out of the US.
