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.

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

Real Destinations International was initially supposed to launch on February 1st. For reasons unknown, the launch has now been delayed until February 14th.

No explanation for the delay is provided on the Real Destinations International website. One possible reason however is a lack of interest, reflected in the company’s current Alexa ranking of over two million.
