PosMiners Review: 45 day ROI bitcoin & gold poker Ponzi scheme
The PosMiners website provides no information about who owns or runs the company.
The PosMiners website domain (“posminers.com”) was privately registered on December 10th, 2017.

Holiday Coin Club Review: Matrix cycler with a mandatory travel twist
The Holiday Coin Club is anti-consumer and does nothing to encourage retail sales.
Visitors to the website are informed they require “exclusive access” to the Holiday Coin Club website, through an affiliate referral link.
A “company information” link is present at the bottom of the website, however this redirects to a new page where only a shell company address in the Marshall Islands is provided.
The Marshall Islands is a known tax-haven and not somewhere you’d expect a reputable MLM company to provide a corporate address in.
The Holiday Coin Club website domain (“holidaycoinclub.com”) was first registered in 2017.
The domain registration was last updated on April 24th, 2018, which might be when the current owner(s) took possession of it.
Unfortunately the Holiday Coin Club domain registration is private and provides no information about who owns or runs the company.
It’s worth noting that the Holiday Coin Club compensation plan is presented in euros, strongly suggesting that whoever is running the company is based out of Europe.
