Traffic Monsoon investment pseudo-compliance exposed

traffic-monsoon-logoOn August 27th Sunil Patel is hosting a “revolution day” for Traffic Monsoon affiliates.

[0:11] The revolution day is a day for all the members to meet, okay. I want all the members around the world to meet up in Brighton.

In his revolution day announcement video, Patel encourages attending affiliates to create banners for the event.

[1:41] You can make a banner.

Now, very strict, what you’re gunna write on the banner has to be something in the lines of “we are not investors”.

[2:27] The main theme is “we are not investors”. This is not a money doubler, “we are not investors” is the most important thing guys.

Patel is adamant Traffic Monsoon is not an investment opportunity and that he is not an investor. [Continue reading…]


Traffic Monsoon affiliate threatens to sue the SEC

traffic-monsoon-logoSunil Patel describes himself as a “serious businessman” who “lost so much money” in the MLM company ACN.

Patel claims to have been an ‘entrepreneur for nineteen years‘, a book author and owner of ‘a personal brand worth millions‘.

[10:30] I’ve had top coaching from Tony Robbins, Brian Tracy, Les Brown, Richard Branson.

Yet despite these “credentials” and nearly two decades of experience, Patel was unable (or simply refused) to identify Traffic Monsoon for what it is.

[18:02] I joined Traffic Monsoon on the 9th of September 2015 … I am an official Traffic Monsoon presenter.

[10:49] I would not have come into this business (Traffic Monsoon) if I thought there was even a millimeter chance of a Ponzi.

[16:25] I am not a person who just woke up and joined Traffic Monsoon because of a some banners.

I done my research. I met Charles when he came to London. I met Immy, I met all the leaders of Traffic Monsoon and I trusted them.

What Patel “thought” Traffic Monsoon was doing when it used newly invested $50 deposits to pay existing investors a $55 ROI is a mystery. [Continue reading…]


Traffic Hurricane: Ernest Ganz launches Traffic Monsoon Ponzi clone

traffic-hurricane-logoThere is no information on the Traffic Hurricane website indicating who owns or runs the business.

The Traffic Hurricane website domain (“traffichurricane.plus”) was registered on August 16th, however the domain registration has been set to private.

Further research reveals top Traffic Monsoon investors Sharon James naming Ernest “Ernie” Ganz as the owner of the company:

ernie-ganz-owner-traffic-hurricane-sharon-james-facebook

Like James, Ganz (right) was a top earner in Traffic Monsoon. Two weeks after the SEC shutdown Traffic Monsoon for being a $207 million dollar Ponzi scheme, Ganz was tied to Traffic Monsoon Plus.

Traffic Monsoon Plus was launched as a Ponzi clone of Traffic Monsoon. Ganz denied he had any official involvement in the scheme but it appears the same cannot be said of Traffic Hurricane. [Continue reading…]

Gold Trade Limited Review: A 6.78% daily ROI “for lifetime”?

gold-trade-limited-logoThere is no information on the Gold Trade Limited website indicating who owns or runs the business.

GOLDTRADE LIMITED is backed by a professional and reliable management team that has years of combined experience in trading over a wide range of markets, focusing on gold and precious metals.

The Gold Trade Limited website domain was registered on the 16th of January 2016, however the domain registration is set to private.

A UK Companies House registration certificate for Gold Trade Limited is provided on the company’s website.

The registration record cites Sandor Marcel Rozsa as the sole Director of the company, with a service address in Hungary.

Possibly due to language barriers, I was unable to find any further information related to MLM on Rosza.

Of note is Rosza’s date of birth on the Gold Trade Limited website is cited as September, 1991.

A registration record for Rose Trading House uses the same Hungarian address provided in the Gold Trade Limited registration.

Sandor Rosza is listed as the sole Director of the company, however his birthdate is cited as November 1964.

There’s a possibility that Sandor Marcel Rozsa, as represented by Gold Trade Limited, doesn’t actually exist.

Supporting this is Sándor Rózsa perhaps not so coincidentally also being the name of ‘a legendary Hungarian outlaw‘.

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…]
