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

Miracle System’s website domain (“miraclesocialmediasystem.com”) was privately registered on October 27th, 2018.

Further research reveals the official Miracle Media Facebook group was created by Domonique Barbee “about 3 months ago”.

Domonique Barbee also features prominently in Miracle System marketing material.

Prior to launching Miracle System, Barbee (right) was promoting the Fearless Momma gifting scheme and Click Funnels pyramid scheme.

Other schemes Barbee has promoted over the past two years include Coins of Change (bitcoin Ponzi cycler), iMarketsLive, Abundant Bitcoin Crowdfunding (matrix cycler), Waszupp Global (pyramid scheme), Postcard Networker (gifting), iCoinPro, UEconomy (gifting), Royaltie,  1 Online Business (Ponzi scheme) and GladiaCoin (bitcoin Ponzi).

I could go on but for the sake of keeping this review readable, I’ll leave it there.

Here on BehindMLM readers cited Barbee as a top promoter of the 2016 Infinity Profit System gifting scheme.

In June 2018 Daniel Filho was declared incompetent to stand trial.

A year later Filho appears to have made a miraculous recovery. He’s communicating with DFRF Enterprises victims and appears to be planning a comeback. [Continue reading…]

Investimento Bitcoin provides no information about who owns or runs the company on their website.

Investimento Bitcoin’s website domain (“investimentobitcoin.com”) was privately registered on March 18th, 2019.

At the time of publication Alexa ranks Brazil as the top source of traffic to Investimento Bitcoin’s website (94%).

This is a high enough percentage to suggest that whoever is running Investimento Bitcoin, is likely based out of Brazil itself.

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…]

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

Farm Mining’s website domain (“farm-mining.com”) was privately registered on June 2nd, 2019.

On its website Farm Mining provides a certificate for incorporation of BitcoinBase Limited in the UK.

Whether this incorporation actually has anything to do with Farm Mining is unclear.

In any event, UK incorporation is dirt cheap and for the most part unregulated. It is a favored jurisdiction for scammers looking to incorporate dodgy companies.

At the time of publication Alexa ranks Brazil (22%), Iran (12%) and India (11%) as the top three sources of traffic to Farm Mining’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…]

Dot Dot Smile are based out of California and operate in the MLM clothing niche.

According to Dot Dot Smile’s website, the company initially launched in 2013. The MLM model was adopted in July 2017.

Heading up Dot Dot Smile is founder Nicole Thompson.

Thompson’s husband Jeff is sometimes credited as a co-founder, but creation of Dot Dot Smile is mostly credited to Nicole (right with Jeff).

That said although it’s not publicized on Dot Dot Smile’s website, Jeff Thompson is CEO of the company.

According to Dot Dot Smile’s “about us” page on their website, Thompson came up with the business idea while living with her parents.

Nicole Thompson is the daughter of DeAnne Stidham, co-founder of LuLaRoe.

I wasn’t able to ascertain whether Thompson was involved in LuLaRoe prior to launching Dot Dot Smile.

In any event, Dot Dot Smile appears to be Thompson’s first run as an MLM executive.

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

Wish Money’s website domain (“wishmoney.com”) was first registered in 2006.

The domain registration was last updated with private details on May 14th, 2019.

A search on the WayBack Machine confirms that as of late last year, the Wish Money domain was for sale.

This suggests that the current owner(s) took possession of the domain on or around May 2019.

Further research reveals Wish Money marketing material citing Jelson Becker as CEO of the company.

Outside of Wish Money, Becker (right) has a heavy affiliation with religion.

Becker’s ties to religion appear to be coordinated through Ativacao Profetica, a “school of prophetic activation” in Pernambuco, Brazil.

Our goal is to equip the Saintsand empower the Body of Christ through ON LINE Training and Periodic Meetings in Affiliated Churches to ourMission Mobilization Network.

On Ativacao Profetics’s website, Becker is referred to as a

simple brother and in love with the Kingdom of God.

He has been serving the Body of Christ for decades as an apostle or prophet missionary with an emphasis on signs and miracles … And more recently after 2009 he has served some local churches as a mentor and ministerial father.

I might be limited by language-barriers, but as far as I can tell Becker doesn’t have an MLM history prior to Wish Money.

Mainston was first reviewed here on BehindMLM back in 2015.

The original business model was simple. Mainston was a four-tier pyramid scheme and it collapsed shortly after our review.

Like many MLM scams, Mainston has recently rebooted itself as a cryptocurrency opportunity.

In line with the 2015 launch, Mainston provides no information about who owns or runs the company on its website.

Mainston’s Terms and Conditions states the company is

 incorporated in Dr. Mladen Stojanovikj num.10, 1300 Kumanovo, Macedonia, registration number: 7360762, Vat number: 4017019537409.

Macedonia isn’t a fully fledged scam friendly jurisdiction, but it’s not known for stringent regulation.

Curiously, there is also an address in Russia provided for Mainston International.

Russia is definitely a scam-friendly jurisdiction.

Mainston’s compensation plan identifies Fabrice Kerherve as both founder and President of the company.

Kerherve recently featured on BehindMLM as a co-founder of the failed Flash4People Ponzi scheme.

Kerherve had intended to launch Flash4People with Sandra and Patrick Collin, who are also credited as founders of Mainston.

In the wake of Flash4People’s collapse, a company announcement stated

The coming weeks will allow us to select a new blockchain and its cryptocurrency responding to the public transparency requirements validated by the crypto community.

Mainston’s reboot would appear to be Kerherve and the Colins’ “selection” for a new scheme.

Daily Binary BTC provides no information on its website about who owns or runs the company.

Daily Binary BTC’s website domain (“dailybinarybtc.com”) was privately registered on June 2nd, 2019.

According to Daily Binary BTC’s Terms and Conditions, its website is

controlled by the Company from its offices within the jurisdiction of Road Town, British Virgin Islands.

BVI is a scam-friendly jurisdiction with little to no regulation.

Shortly after the FX Trading Corp Ponzi scheme collapsed, the F2 Trading Corp reboot was announced.

Central to the scheme is Phillip Han, who on Facebook identifies himself as FX Trading Corp’s Global Master Distributor.

Whether Han had a hand in running FX Trading Corp and/or who he worked with is unclear.

What is clear is he made a ton of money ripping of Brazilians and, through F2 Trading Corp, is hoping to do it again.

Phillip Han is based out of Brazil itself.

Prior to getting involved in crypto scams, Han (right) was a Jeunesse distributor.

Right now F2 Trading Corp doesn’t exist beyond a dodgy Telegram group, list of scammers who’ve already signed up and compensation plan.

The good news is that’s all we need to review the company.

Read on for a full review of the F2 Trading Corp MLM opportunity. [Continue reading…]
