There is no information on the 1×2 Pusher website indicating who owns or runs the business.

The 1×1 Pusher website domain (“1x2pusher.com”) was registered on the 22nd of March 2015, with a “Julie Higgins” credited as the site owner. An address in the US state of Texas is also provided.

Over the years Higgins (right) has been involved in and run a number of questionable schemes. I won’t go into the specific business models of each, save to say you’re mostly looking at low-profile cash gifting and matrix recruitment schemes.

Opportunities Higgins has been involved in as an affiliate or operated herself include Daily Adds of Wealth (2014), Spillover Magic (2012), LoveForYouAll (2012), Money4YouToday (2012), LoveAndHopeDaily (2012), ZumAds (2013), Giving2You (2013), CycleIntoWealth (2013), XpressDailyCash (2014) and DreamMyCash (2014).

To say that Higgins is an experienced player in the MLM underbelly would be an understatement.

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

The Cfur Advertising website domain was registered on the 26th of February 2015, with a “David Coxon”of “World Wide Portals Solutions Corp” in the UK listed as the owner.

World Wide Portals Solutions Corp credit themselves as the owners of Crowd Funding United Revolution, a six-tier matrix cycler feeder run by Norbert Wachter.

Meawhile I was unable to find any further information on David Coxon. Whether or not this personal actually exists, as represented in the Cfur Advertising domain registration, is unclear.

Affiliate calls for Cfur Advertising identify the company it as a “sister company”, with the name itself suggesting it is a marketing entity (Crowd Funding United Revolution).

This much at least is confirmed on the Cfur Advertising website:

We are a branch of Crowd funding united Revolution Hence “CFUR”.

Why there is no further information provided about who is running the “branch” is a mystery.

In any event, Cfur Advertising is in itself a standalone company, acting as a feeder into Crowd Funding United Revolution.

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

The Giant Networker website domain (“giantnetworker.com”) was registered on the 19th of February 2015, with Ross Callen listed as the owner. An address in the US state of Missouri is also provided.

Why this information is not provided on the Giant Networker website is not clear.

Callen (right) previously launched Giant Cinema, a non-MLM opportunity that sees affiliates paid to “watch TV”. Affiliates are paid “10% commission on all commercial revenue that runs on the media devices of the accounts (they) sign up”.

The Giant Cinema website currently states that the opportunity is in beta.

Last month saw the arrest of Better Living Global Marketing mastermind, Luke Teng.

Teng, along with four female investors have yet to be charged, but police have raided BLGM’s offices and collected scores of evidence.

While they’ve been going over it all and building a case, increasing numbers of investors have been filing complaints with local police. [Continue reading…]

There is no information on the BigBangCycler website indicating who owns or operates the company.

The BigBangCycler website domain (“bigbangcycler.com”) was registered on the 3rd of January 2015, listing a “Bonnie Smith” as the owner. An address in the UK is also provided.

Further research reveals this address to “Sheffield Silverware Limited”, which doesn’t appear to have anything to do with BigBangCycler.

A Facebook page linked off the BigBangCycler website displays the following profile picture:

This profile photo too has nothing to with BigBangCycler, having been stolen from the University of Calgary (Canada) website:

Given this, it’s highly unlikely that “Bonnie Smith”, as represented in the BigBangCycler domain registration exists.

Typically bogus UK domain registration is a hallmark of scammers operating out of India, and I’m seeing nothing here to suggest otherwise.

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 Massive Wealth Cycler website indicating who owns or runs the business.

The Massive Wealth Cycler website domain (“massivewealthcycler.com”) was registered on the 25th of January 2015, however the domain registration is set to private.

An official Facebook group for Massive Wealth Cycler is linked off the company’s website.

Three individuals are listed as admins of the closed group: Yusuf Oluwatobi Ibrahim, Amissah Raphael and John Peterburg.

Whether these individuals are running Massive Wealth Cycler or whether they just joined early is unclear.

Affiliates marketing Massive Wealth Cycler are identifying Peterburg as an admin, with official company emails signed off “John & Admin Team”.

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 Easy Dream website indicating who owns or runs the business.

The company website does have a “Who is Easy Dream?” section, but only the following marketing spiel is provided:

Since its start Easy Dream has built a partnership with the best development, technology and production companies from various business areas, thereby ensuring it’s positioning as a leading company.

The Easy Dream website domain (“easy-dream.net”) is registered to the company itself, care of an address in France that belongs to their hosting provider (OwO).

I did note that most of the marketing material for Easy Dream is in French, indicating that this is likely where the company is being operated out of.

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…]

Note that due to the length of time some of Epic Lyfe’s founders have been involved in the MLM industry, the above is not a complete list.

Update 26th October 2015 – Beto Paredes has been in touch and informs me he is now the CEO of Epic Lyfe.

Beto has been in the Network Marketing industry for almost 15 years and has enjoyed great success.

Beto brings industry knowledge and seasoned experience to any project he works on.

He has managed major projects for business theory and core engineering for over 13 companies that launched in the space, including the highly successful 5Linx (Inc 500) and Jeunesse Skin Care.

Paredes popped up on BehindMLM earlier this year in connection with Encore3.

Despite only launching a few months ago, the Encore3 website has since gone defunct. /end update

DFRF Enterprises is a high yield investment program (HYIP) that advertises 15% a month ROIs on affiliate investments (min $10,000).

Under the guise of mining operations in Africa, the scheme simply takes newly invested funds and uses it to pay off existing investors.

DFRF Enterprises’ founder, Daniel Fernandes Rojo Filho, is of course no stranger to Ponzi fraud. He was named defendant in a 2009 lawsuit filed by the regulators in Florida.

That lawsuit saw Filho return millions of dollars stolen from investors through Ponzi fraud.

Amidst reports the DFRF Enterprises has already run out of investor funds to pay out, now comes claims the company plans to register with the SEC and launch an IPO.

No, this isn’t a late April fools joke… [Continue reading…]

LivinItGlobal are based out of the US state of Utah and operate in the weight loss and energy drink MLM niches.

Credited as CEO of the company on the LivingItGlobal website is Randy Heaton (right).

Mr. Heaton has been very successful in building many different, multi-million dollar companies.

He has had extensive experience building huge organizations in the Direct Sales Industry.

He has achieved some of the highest positions in those companies; companies such as Nu Skin, Xocai, Zrii, eXfuze and Xooma.

Heaton was also a master distributor with Xenesta (health and nutrition).

Despite being involved in a number of MLM opportunities, LivinItGlobal would appear to be Heaton’s first MLM venture as an executive.
