Earlier this week Sanderley Rodrigues was released on strict home detention conditions, following clarification that Brazilian authorities were not looking to extradite him.

This suggested that perhaps there was an issue with the investigation behind the Brazilian arrest warrant.

Clarification from Brazilian authorities however now clarifies the reason a formal extradition request was not submitted. [Continue reading…]

SweetAdShare operate in the advertising MLM niche, with Bernette Forde cited as the owner of the company on its website.

Forde (right) lists her location as Bermuda in her LinkedIn profile, which is presumably where SweetAdShare is being operated from.

Forde runs a website over at “bernetteptc.com”, on which a plethora of HYIP schemes Forde has participated in as an affiliate are listed.

I wasn’t able to link Forde to ownership of any prior opportunities though, suggesting SweetAdShare is likely her first MLM venture as an owner.

Update 17th July 2015 – Bernette Forde has been in touch and informed me that she’s no longer in Bermuda. Forde now claims to be in the UK, from which she is running SweetAdShare.

She has claims to have launched multiple”pay to click” schemes in the past, crediting herself as the owner of Factoryclicks, Clix99 and Leopardclicks. /end update

There is no information on the Nopa Vida website indicating who owns or runs the business.

The Nopa Vida website domain (“nopavida.com”) was registered on the 23rd of February 2015, with John Dierksmeier listed as the owner. An address in the US state of Texas is also provided.

Dierksmeier (full name John Dierksmeier Quesada), first popped up on BehindMLM’s radar as the Founder of MaxeVida in 2011.

MaxeVida combined retail sales and affiliate recruitment, tracked through a matrix-based compensation plan.

Similar matrix schemes launched by Dierksmeier prior to MaxeVida include TVBoxNet and EZProBuilder.

When MaxeVida seems to have collapsed sometime in 2012, with Dierksmeier (right) then going on to launch Only20Bucks.

Again based on a matrix compensation plan, Only20Bucks was a recruitment-driven feeder for iClubBiz (in which Dierksmeier was an affiliate).

iClubBiz itself was an autoship-centric recruitment scheme launched in 2013.

2014 saw Dierksmeier get into coffee, with the launch of Cafe Nopal.

That brings us to 2015, in which Dierksmeier has thus far launched Nopa Vida and just last month 2×2 Wealth, a two-tier matrix cycler.

There is no information on the Dropship2Cash website indicating who owns or runs the business.

The Dropship2Cash website domain (“dropship2cash.com”) was registered on the 6th of July 2015, however the domain registration is set to private.

Somebody called “John Nero” is signing off on Dropship2Cash affiliate emails, however no further information on this individual is available. This suggests it’s likely a pseudonym.

An address in Sweden is provided on he Dropship2Cash website, providing one possibility as to where Dropship2Cash is being run out of.

Another is India, with Alexa currently listing it as the largest source of traffic to the Dropship2Cash website (14.1%).

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 JetBox website indicating who owns or runs the business.

The JetBox website domain (“getjetbox.com”) was registered on the 16th of March 2015, listing only “Jet Box” as the domain owner.

A residential address in the US state of California is also provided, suggesting this is where JetBox is being operated out of.

Organic Prospects is headed up by Greg Stinton and Aaron Warner, both of which have a history in internet marketing and lead generation.

According to a blurb on the Organic Prospects websites, Stinton and Warner developed the concept behind Organic Prospects from about 2010.

This, they claim, was the year Google began to clamp down on the use of affiliate marketing through AdWords.

Google Adwords marketing provided a great living for both Greg & Aaron for another 7 years until 2010.

This was the year Google began its slashing and burning of affiliate accounts and the boys were forced to act quickly if they were going to continue their careers in online marketing.

Greg & Aaron soon discovered the value in acquiring home business prospects and emailing them various offers. The more prospects they acquired and contacted, the more money they made.

This evolved quickly into a systematic process of acquiring, grading and filtering of the prospects based on genuine interest, to further increase their results.

The process was refined on over 5 million prospects during the next 5 years.

With an efficient method of acquiring home business prospects via the top 15 social media sites, and a streamlined way of grading and filtering these prospects based on genuine interest, Greg & Aaron committed themselves to giving back to their peers.

Only the home business prospects that meet Greg & Aaron’s absolute highest standard of genuine interest are given the name “Organic Prospects.”

Organic Prospects itself was only launched this year, with the website domain registered on the 31st of March.

The company appears to be the first MLM launch for both Stinton and Warner.

Not really sure what’s going on here, but following the filing of a clawback lawsuit against seven Brazilian and six Irish Zeek Rewards affiliates back in May, the Receiver has now filed notices of dismissal. [Continue reading…]

Typically when a scam goes down there’s always at least one insider who starts circulating misinformation they make up as they go along.

Angry downline investors, pressure from friends and family who trusted them, the denial of having lost all that monopoly money – there’s a myriad of reasons it happens. And if widely circulated enough, creates enough confusion among investors such that those responsible for stealing their money are able to slink off into the night.

Language-barriers amplify the chaos, with the recent SEC shutdown and FBI investigation of DFRF Enterprises showcasing a prime example. [Continue reading…]

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

The RevPayingAds website domain (“revpayingads.com”) was registered on the 21st of May 2015, however the domain registration is set to private.

An official Facebook group is linked off the RevPayingAds website, listing Bogdan Lončar and David Spadoni as the sole admins:

Neither individual claims to openly own RevPayingAds in their respective Facebook profiles, leaving it unclear whether or not they are running the scheme or are just affiliates.

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…]
