VenVici launched in mid 2014 and operate in the mobile app and e-commerce MLM niches.

The company provides no information on its website about who owns or runs it.

The VenVici website domain (“venvici.com”) was registered on January 10th, 2014.

Wang Ai Ping is listed as the owner through an address in Singapore.

The same address is provided on the VenVici website.

Possibly due to language-barriers, I was unable to find any connection between VenVici and Wang Ai Ping.

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…]

BitEstate provide no information on their website about who owns or runs the company.

The BitEstate website domain (“bitestate.biz”) was privately registered on November 7th, 2017.

Although BitEstate claims to be operated out of London, UK, it is far more likely that whoever is actually running it is based out of Russia or the Ukraine.

Alexa estimate Russia is currently the largest source of traffic to the BitEstate website (20%).

Russian is an offered language on the BitEstate website. BitEstate also operate a VKontakte social media account, which the company publishes content to in Russian.

CryptoCash Nation provide no information on their website about who owns or runs the business.

The CryptoCash Nation website domain (“cryptocashnation.com”) was registered on December 30th, 2017.

Jill Field of “FXB Trading Inc.” is listed as the owner, through an address in British Columbia, Canada.

I wasn’t able to find any definitive ties to Jill Field and CryptoCash Nation.

There is a cryptocurrency exchange that goes by the name of FXB Trading, however again it doesn’t appear to have any links to CryptoCash Nation.

In a CryptoCash Nation marketing video, Thomas Fraser is identified as one of the co-founders of the company.

Fraser (right) appears to reside in British Columbia, Canada.

On his Facebook profile Fraser identifies himself as the owner of CryptoCash Nation, which he markets through the “Tommy Swoles Global Networker” page.

Prior to owning CryptoCash Nation Fraser was promoting Valentus.

Who Fraser is working with is unclear, but documents hosted on the CryptoCash Nation website suggest it’s tied to 7 Rings of Wealth:

7 Rings of Wealth is a cash gifting scheme launched early last year.

The company referred to participants in the scam as “the Nation”.

Alexa traffic statistics show interest in 7 Rings of Wealth peaked in September, 2017.

The scheme began to collapse around December and today 7 Rings of Wealth website activity is terminal.

For all intents and purposes, CryptoCash Nation appears to be a reboot of 7 Rings of Wealth.

GB21 provide no information on their website about who owns or runs the business.

The GB21 website domain (“gb21.com”) was first registered on May 9th, 2013.

The domain registration details were recently updated on January 10th, 2018, suggesting this is around the time the current owner(s) acquired it.

On their website, GB21 market MCAP altcoin mining packages.

MCAP is a worthless cryptocurrency attached to the Gain Bitcoin Ponzi scheme.

Gain Bitcoin launched in mind 2017 and offered investors a 10% monthly ROI on investment of up to 13.75 BTC.

The catch was ROI payments were paid in MCAP.

After investor recruitment died down, Gain Bitcoin collapsed in November, 2017.

MCAP pumped to almost $7 at the height of Gain Bitcoin investor recruitment in June, 2017. It is now worth 27 cents.

Gain Bitcoin was owned and operated by Amit Bhardwaj (right). It follows that he is also behind GB21.

According to recent Indian media reports, Bhardwaj is wanted by authorities in Maharashtra.

On Wednesday morning, Maharashtra minister of state for home Ranjeet Patil said that his government would ask the Enforcement Directorate, the central agency fighting economic crime, to probe allegations that Amit Bhardwaj and his company GainBitcoin had swindled investors of some Rs 2,000 crore through Bitcoin (BTC) Ponzi schemes – by far the largest such scam in India involving cryptocurrencies, if it is proven.

The moves by the Maharashtra government – it has also issued a ‘lookout notice’, made arrests, and sealed bank accounts – come at a time when Bhardwaj has left behind and closed the GainBitcoin operations and created a new company called GB21, which is another multi-level marketing (MLM) scheme being marketed aggressively in India and internationally.

Update 12th September 2019 – Misha Wilson has been in touch to advise that as of September 2018, Super Affiliate Network no longer operates as an MLM opportunity.

The information in our review below is outdated but preserved for research purposes. /end update

Super Affiliate Network launched in mid 2016. The company provides a corporate address on their website in the US state of Hawaii.

Heading up Super Affiliate Network is Founder, Misha Wilson.

So the story goes;

After getting started Online at the age of 22, (Misha Wilson) soon there after hit 6 figures by the age of 24, and then scaled his company to the multimillion dollar mark by the age of 25.

After being a top earner in multiple different opportunities, and watching 97% of all of his teammates fail due to not being able to duplicate his efforts, Misha saw a gap in the Marketplace.

Thus began the beginnings of The Super Affiliate Network.

Wilson (right) doesn’t mention the companies he was in prior to founding the Super Affiliate Network. Through various marketing scraps left around the place however I was able to tie him to  and Elite Marketing Pro and The Home Business Agency.

From the looks of it Wilson’s history is that of your typical affiliate marketer; “I was broke” –> “Now I’m rich selling you stuff on how you can become rich too”.

And that’s pretty much what the Super Affiliate Network promises;

The goal of SAN is simple… To teach all of his members everything they need to know in order to break through and achieve success, along with helping them create there [sic] first breakthroughs with Misha’s done for you solutions.

BehindMLM reviewed Viridian last December. One of the primary concerns raised was a potential lack of retail viability due to high service costs.

Turns out we were onto something.

Earlier today the Massachusetts Attorney General’s Office announced a $5 million dollar settlement with Viridian.

In reaching the settlement, Viridian acknowledged it had used “deceptive marketing and sales tactics that lured residents into costly contracts with high electricity rates”. [Continue reading…]

An ongoing crackdown on scams operating in Turkey has lead authorities to shut down another Ponzi scheme, this time Detail Maxinet.

Within hours of publishing yesterday’s article quoting a recent Ormeus Global marketing pitch by Troy Rejda, we received a legal threat from Mark Pooser.

Pooser claimed our quoting a marketing pitch by a third-party that in turn claimed to quote him was somehow slanderous on our part.

Naturally we disagreed and suggested he ask Troy Rejda why he was mistakenly quoting him.

Pooser never got back to us on that.

What’s perhaps of more interest though is Pooser’s comments on the current state of Ormeus Global – which differ wildly from the potential earnings Troy Rejda projected. [Continue reading…]
