On December 30th, 2016, Nerium International filed a lawsuit against Modere.

Nerium claims the lawsuit, which also sought a Temporary Restraining Order, was an attempt to stop

two of its high-ranking salespeople and a paid Nerium consultant from raiding Nerium’s salesforce and customers, in direct violation of their non-competition and non-solicitation agreements, for a competing company named Modere.

Both Nerium and Modere operate in the personal care MLM niche. [Continue reading…]

Nerium’s flagship product Nerium AD has come under fire, following the filing of a new lawsuit in Missouri

As per BehindMLM’s Nerium review (2014), the company claims Nerium AD (“Age Defying”)

contains the most effective ingredients available, including our exclusive, patented NAE-8 extract, which has powerful antioxidant properties that help reduce the appearance of many signs of aging.

According to plaintiff Christina Swiatek, Nerium AD also causes chemical burns, permanent skin damage. [Continue reading…]

There is no information on the Infinity Reloaded website indicating who owns or runs the business.

The Infinity Reloaded website domain (“infinityreloaded.com”) was registered on the 23rd of October, 2016. Luisa Menezes is listed as the owner, with a residential address in Langholme, Scotland also provided.

On Facebook Menezes (right) goes by “Lou Menezes Santos”. Santos is also an affiliate with Skinny Body Care and seems have recruited some of her downline affiliates into Infinity Reloaded:

Just saw a post and comments in an SBC group saying that infinity reloaded is all hype lol.

Well let’s just see who will be the last one laughing when we all reach platinum before all of you. And yes when this launches and you see BV spike in SBC.

Prior to launching late last year, Santos even went so far as to refer to Infinity Reloaded as SBC Infinity Reloaded:

Santos is also an affiliate of the Leased Ad Space cash gifting scheme.

There is no information on the Two Bitcoin website indicating who owns or runs the business.

The Two Bitcoin website domain (“twobitcoin.com”) was privately registered on July 11th, 2016.

An incomplete address in Russia is provided on the Two Bitcoin website, which is strange as the default language for the site is Spanish.

Further research reveals Two Bitcoin affiliates naming Jose Carlos Martins as founder and CEO of the company.

Martins (right) is purportedly based out of Brazil. In 2015 Martins was promoting Ares Perfumes & Cosmetics, a Brazilian MLM company.

From what I’ve been able to gather, Two Bitcoin is a company run under the brand “Two Company”. It is part of a VOIP (Two VOIP) offering and a yet to launch pay to click (Two Clik) scheme.

Two Bitcoin seems to operate independently from these two entities and is reviewed here as a stand-alone offering.

Good news for victims of the WCM777 Ponzi scheme, with the Receiver revealing allowed claims will be paid out “within the next week or so”.

The Receiver’s announcement was made as part of her twelfth Interim Report. [Continue reading…]

Following a proposal submitted last month by the Receiver, an order has established how much Zeek’s Rewards’ net-winner class will have to pay back.

The order makes no amendments to the Zeek Receiver’s initial proposal, which had already been signed off on by attorneys representing the 9000 strong net-winner class. [Continue reading…]

Following suspicion that the house Fabio Wanzeler’s Florida house had been purchased with stolen TelexFree Ponzi funds, last December the DOJ requested a restraining order against the property.

The DOJ were concerned that if James Merrill and Carlos Wanzeler were convicted, steps might be taken to sell or transfer the property to obfuscate links to TelexFree.

Based on evidence submitted by the DOJ, a restraining order against the property. [Continue reading…]

The Xabo Logistics website identifies Sir Harvey Bowen as CEO of the company.

Sir Bowen is a graduate economist and Canterbury University Ph.D.

His path began in the civil fleet Naval US. Academy, where he was able to successfully got his MBA with a scholarship, worked as vice president of Philips.

With the New Year in 2015 after the approval from the Queen of Great Britain, he was awarded the title of knight.

If that didn’t sound dubious enough off in and of itself, a quick check of the 2015 New Year Honors list reveals no Harvey Bowen was knighted in 2015. There’s nothing linking him to Philips either.

Put simply Harvey Bowen, as represented on the Xabo Logistics website, doesn’t exist.

A corporate address in Stockport, UK is provided on the Xabo Logistics website. Further research reveals this address actually belongs to an unrelated chartered accounting firm.

Xabo Logistics was incorporated in the UK on November 2nd, 2016. Joseph Morgan is listed as the sole Director of the company.

The address provided for Morgan belongs to an unrelated coffee and tea shop. Needless to say Joseph Morgan probably doesn’t exist either.

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…]

There is no information on the Crypto Wealth Fund website indicating who owns or runs the business.

The Crypto Wealth Fund website (“cryptowealthfund.com”) was privately registered on November 2nd, 2016.

The official Crypto Wealth Fund Facebook group lists one admin, Ahmad Shiekh.

The Ahmad Shiekh account appears to be fake, having only started posting (mostly copied content) from November 3rd, 2016 (the day after the Crypto Wealth Fund website domain was registered).

Prior to November 3rd the only content on the account is a cover photo change in 2016. This lack of content is typical of purchased Facebook accounts.

There is no information on the Fund Your Success website indicating who owns or runs the business.

The Fund Your Success website domain (“fundyoursuccess.com”) was first registered on December 19th, 2015. The registration was recently updated on December 21st, 2016.

John Dierksmeier is listed as the domain owner, with an address in the US state of Texas also provided.

Dierksmeier (full name John Dierksmeier Quesada) first popped up on BehindMLM’s radar in 2015 as the owner of 2×2 Wealth, a matrix cycler.

Other MLM opportunities Dierksmeier has since launched include Only7Bucks, Cafe Nopal, Eco Plus Network, My Secret Fortune and EZAdsNet.

In late 2016 Dierksmeier appears to have moved on to the Amazing Living autoship recruitment scheme. To build his Amazing Living downline Dierksmeier created Amazing Pre Builder, a matrix cycler feeder.

Alexa traffic statistics for the Amazing Pre Builder website suggest the scheme never took off. This has likely prompted the launch of Fund Your Success.
