Xtreme Pro System initially launched in late 2014, as a Ponzi feeder for scams admin Johnny Ganoza was promoting at the time.

By March 2015 the scheme had collapsed, with Ganoza ditching the original Ponzi cycler for a single-level commission model.

That didn’t go down too well with Xtreme Pro System’s Ponzi investors, which prompted a hasty collapse.

A few days ago Xtreme Pro System 2.0 popped up, claiming to have ‘a new admin and a new complan‘.

There is no information on the Xtreme Pro System 2.0 website indicating who the “new admin” is.

The Xtreme Pro System 2.0 website domain (“xtremeprosystem.info”) was privately registered on July 11th, 2017.

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…]

The December 18th warning, published by UOKiK President Marek Niechciala, appears to be an end-of-year recap of regulatory actions taken by the watchdog. [Continue reading…]

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

The only corporate management member revealed in a website featured Carelumina marketing video is Vice President of Business Development, Emil Dostovic.

Prior to Carelumina, Dostovic appears to have had a modelling career.

According to Dostovic’s Instagram bio he’s ‘appeared in Milan, Paris, NYC, MIA fashion weeks and most major publications worldwide.‘

I wasn’t able to find an MLM history for Dostovic, suggesting Carelumina is both his first MLM venture and executive position within the industry.

Among the sea of MLM pump and dump shitcoins launched this year, KashhCoin seems to have mostly flown under the radar.

Marketed with the usual comparisons to bitcoin, KashhCoin even went so far as to represent it was accepted by several well-known merchants:

The reality was that KashhCoin was ultimately worthless, with those investing in it only doing so because of the attached MLM opportunity. [Continue reading…]

With a large percentage of the MLM underbelly on board, in order to survive the next few months USI-Tech needs to convince regular investors to get on board.

This has seen the company forced to try to address the question of where its ROI revenue comes from.

Since May USI-Tech has been promising proof of external ROI revenue, yet in the secret “thou shalt not record” affiliate meetings the company holds around the world, all affiliates have gotten is promises of this and that.

First it was forex trading, then it was bitcoin trading, then it was bitcoin mining, then it was magical energy devices and now, out of nowhere, an ethereum mining pool named “USITech” has surfaced. [Continue reading…]

The Eagle Gates Group Ponzi scheme was best known for its hilarious marketing strategies.

This included claims Eagle Gates Group had $8 billion dollars of “revenue-generating investments” and had a three-year $603 million dollar trading record.

Oh, and who could forget the hilarious CNN spoof interview featuring the fictional “Eddy McClough”:

After launching about a year ago in late 2016, Eagle Gates Group collapsed in April, 2017.

In May Eagle Gates Group tried to relaunch as Sener Trader, only to collapse again a few months later in July.

Turns out both scams were being run from Thailand, by two Thai nationals and eight foreigners. [Continue reading…]

The ExaCoin website domain (“exacoin.co”) was privately registered on October 23rd, 2017.

At the time of publication Alexa estimate that Vietnam is the largest source of traffic to the ExaCoin website (27%).

This suggests that whoever is running ExaCoin is likely based out of Vietnam.
