CannerGrow claims to operate in the MLM cryptocurrency niche.

CannerGrow’s website domain (“cannergrow.com”) was registered on April 5th, 2019.

Sascha Waeschle is listed as the owner, through an address in Rottweil, Germany.

According to CannerGrow’s website, the company is “a project founded by Cannerald”.

Cannerald claims to be a “Swiss research and production company of cannabis.”

According to a Cannerald marketing presentation;

The company was founded in 2017 as a project of MSL Industries GmbH and was spun off as a separate company on 18.07.2018 as Cannerald GmbH based in Pfäffikon, Switzerland.

The four founders of Cannerald, Sascha Adrian Waeschle, Severin Jem Amweg, Levin Kim Amweg and Maik Marcel Pietrowski founded the company with the aim of becoming Europe‘s largest cannabis producer and exporter.

The only link to MLM I was able to establish is a June 2019 interview, in which Maik Pietrowski states he

started in multi-level marketing for insurance in 2014.

Followed by the sale of vacuum cleaners and then the online marketing with various networks.

Cannerald’s website domain was registered in late December 2017. The company claims it was “registered in July 2018.”

Despite launching roughly a year ago, Alexa tracks next to no traffic to Cannerald’s website (rank ~5 million).

This suggests Cannerald as a stand-alone business was a flop.

CannerGrow appears to have been launched a few months ago to resuscitate what’s left of Cannerald.

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

Wssavior’s website domain (“wssavior.com”) was  registered on April 5th, 2018.

Eva Kozma is listed as the owner, through an address in the UK shared with multiple businesses.

No connection between Eva Kozma and Wssavior exists outside of the domain registration.

Given this, it’s highly likely that Kozma doesn’t exist.

On their website Wssavior provide a UK incorporation number that corresponds with WSSH LTD.

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

Furthermore there doesn’t appear to be any verifiable connection between Wssavior and WSSH LTD.

On its website Wssavior also claims to have “started” in September 2014.

This is bogus, as the company’s website domain was only registered in April 2018.

Wssavior’s official Twitter account went live in July 2018, which is likely around the time the company actually launched.

WSSH LTD’s UK corporate filings date back to August 2014, which appears to be the basis of the “start” date on Wssavior’s website.

It’s highly likely that Wssavior has just using the details of a an existing unrelated UK company.

The UK is notorious for failing to regulate its corporate records.

At the time of publication Alexa ranks Argentina (19%), Russia (13%) and Iran (12%) as the top three sources of traffic to Wssavior’s website.

Based on Wssavior having an active Russian language VK social media account, it’s highly likely that whoever owns Wssavior is from Russia 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…]

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

NovaTech’s website domain (“novatechfx.io”) was registered on June 17th, 2019.

NovaTech LTD is listed as the owner, through what appears to be a bogus incomplete address (Vatican City).

On its website NovaTech claims to be “registered in the USA, British Virgin Islands and Estonia”.

No specific details are provided which, when combined with the bogus domain, leads me to believe these claims are false.

Update 11th July 2021 – NovaTech has abandoned their .io domain, it now redirects to “novatechfx.com”.

A page on that website has the slug “from the CEO”. On the page Cynthia Petion, styling herself as a reverend, speaks about NovaTech in the possessive.

When we developed NovaTech, Ltd., we decided on two things:

First, we resolved that our program would be affordable to join and available to anyone who wanted to participate.

Second, we committed to providing people with the tools and skills training they need to be successful.

Cynthia and her husband Eddy Petion are known to BehindMLM as top earners in the AWS Mining Ponzi scheme.

BehindMLM reviewed AWS Mining in September 2018. Eddy Petion showed up in the review comments to defend the Ponzi scheme.

AWS Mining collapsed in April 2019. NovaTech popped up on our radar a few months later.

It seems the Petion’s launched NovaTech as a reboot Ponzi. Rather than just be top net-winners though, through NovaTech they keep more money as company owners.

Leaning into religion, Cynthia Petion is marketing herself as “The Reverend CEO”.

Eddy Petion, who served as AWS Mining’s executive President, cites himself as NovaTech’s Chief Operating Officer.

The Petions are believed to operate out of New York in the US. /end update
