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…]

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.

On December 15th the British Columbia Securities Commission officially added USI-Tech to its Investment Caution List. [Continue reading…]

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…]

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

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.

V-One provide no information on their website about who owns or runs the business.

The V-One website domain (“v-one.io”) was privately registered on October 30th, 2017.

The official V-One Facebook group was created by Lucas Santino on November 30th.

Santino appears to be running the show and refers to V-One in the possessive.

Like to give you all a peak at my coding behind the scene! still working on internal exchanger  🙂 wont take long to complete.

No information on Lucas Santino outside of the V-One Facebook group is available, raising the question of whether he actually exists.

The Lucas Santino Facebook account itself appears to be bogus, having only been created on November 26th.

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

The Mass Cryp website domain (“masscryp.com”) was privately registered on August 27th, 2017.

Why they’re not identified on the main Mass Cryp website I have no idea, but a Mass Cryp token website identifies Pijush Sarkar (CEO), Saurabh Singh (CFO) and Shashank Mishra (COO) as co-founders of the company.

According to their respective Mass Cryp corporate bios, Pijush Sarkar is

an Entrepreneur, Blockchain and Cryptocurrency awareness trainer.

he has extensive experience in building businesses and investing in crypto currencies.

12 years of experience in business development and designing business road maps for different companies.

Saurabh Singh is ‘an Entrepreneur, Cryptocurrency mining awareness trainer with 8+ years experience in IT sector‘.

Shashank Mishra is

an Entrepreneur with 8+ years in administration management in different sectors.

He has extensive experience in investing in property and Real estate business.

Attempts to verify the provided history or any of Mass Crypt’s co-founders turned up nothing. I’m flagging this as highly suspicious.

Alexa traffic estimates for both the Mass Cryp main and token websites reveal India is the top source of traffic (73% and 35% respectively).

This strongly suggests and Mass Cryp is being operated out of India itself.

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

The Relicoin Bid website domain (“realcoinearn.online”) was registered on December 9th, 2017.

Raghav Singh is listed as the owner, through an incomplete address in Madhya Pradesh, India.

I wasn’t able to find any information on Singh specific to Relicoin Bid. Whether he actually exists or not is unclear.
