Quantex’s website domain (“quantex.shop”), was privately registered on May 17th, 2024.

World Trade Coal Review: Coal themed Ponzi scheme

World Trade Coal fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

World Trade Coal’s official marketing videos are a combination of Fiverr actors and stock footage:

World Trade Coal’s website domain (“worldtradecoal.com”), was privately registered on August 25th, 2023.

In an attempt to appear legitimate, World Trade Coal provides shell company details for “World Trade Coal Limited”.

As per the supplied certificate above, World Trade Coal Limited was purportedly registered in Iowa on September 19th, 2023.

Attached to World Trade Coal Limited’s shell company is an address in Iowa that has nothing to do with the company.

Due to the ease with which scammers are able to incorporate shell companies with bogus details, for the purpose of MLM due-diligence these certificates are meaningless.

World Trade Coal also provides a FinCEN certificate and MSB registration number.

Putting aside this is tied to the aforementioned shell company, FinCEN is not a financial regulator. Like shell company certificates, for the purpose of MLM due-diligence FinCEN certificates are also meaningless.

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…]

NuSpira operates in the nutritional supplement MLM niche.

The company is headed up by co-founders Mark and Kat Sterling.

Mark Sterling (right with Kat), last appeared on BehindMLM as co-founder and COO of TRVL.

This is the address of LaCore Enterprises, making NuSpira a LaCore Enterprises owned MLM company.

Note that there is no mention of reference to LaCore Enterprises or owner Terry LaCore on NuSpira’s website.

Lotter Pro Review: Lottery ruse 1% a day Ponzi

Lotter Pro fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

Lotter Pro’s website domain (“lotterpro.com”), was privately registered on December 29th, 2023.

Further research reveals official marketing citing “Gilberto Gomes” as Lotter Pro’s CEO.

Here’s an auto-translation of Gomes’ Lotter Pro corporate bio;

Dr. Gilberto Gomes, with decades of legal experience, has accumulated more than 8 years of experience as a lawyer, businessman and angel investor in the betting market.

Specializing in legal guidance, entrepreneurship and support for startups, he stands out for helping bettors achieve success in business.

Count on the experience and expertise of Dr. Gilberto Gomes to achieve your goals at Lotter Pro.

I was able to verify Gomes, full name Gilberto Gomes Da Silva Filho, is a lawyer based out of Pernambuco state in Brazil.

Gomes also appears to have also run for Counsilor in at least two elections. He doesn’t appear to have won.

Gomes being from Brazil syncs with SimilarWeb attributing 100% of Lotter pro’s website traffic from Brazil.

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…]
