IsPay Review: Fintech ruse MLM crypto Ponzi
IsPay fails to provide ownership ore executive information on its website.
IsPay’s website domain (“ispay.com”), was privately registered on June 9th, 2025.
If we look at the source-code of IsPay’s website, we find Chinese:

This ties into marketing material citing Wu Xiaorong as IsPay’s Chairman:

Wu doesn’t appear to exist outside of IsPay’s own marketing. Her IsPay corporate bio appears to be fictional.
Such to extent Wu makes an appearance at staged IsPay marketing events, she’s likely a puppet CEO who the actual Chinese scammers running IsPay hide behind.
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…]
Conectiv Review: Investview reboots fraud for 3rd time
Conectiv is the latest reboot of Investview’s long-running fraudulent investment scheme:

- Romano, Raynor and several other individuals co-founded Investview in 2013;
- Investview launched Wealth Generators sometime after its own launch, offering passive returns connected to Wealth Engineering trading signals;
- Wealth Generators was rebooted as Kuvera Global in 2018, just before a $150,000 commodities fraud fine from the CFTC was made public;
- Kuvera Global rebooted as iGenius in 2021 after Investview learned of a pending SEC investigation;

- Conectiv marketing/branding from Investview surfaced on or around February 3rd, 2026
No executive information is provided on Conectiv’s website. Based on publicly available Conectiv marketing material though, Chad Garner (right) is still President of Conectiv.
Garner has retained this executive role dating back to Wealth Generators. Garner joined Investview in 2016.
Investview is headquartered in Pennsylvania. Conectiv and its predecessors operate from Utah.
With Investview’s history out of the way, read on for a full review of its latest Conectiv MLM opportunity reboot. [Continue reading…]
Quantro Network Review: Trading bot MLM crypto Ponzi
Quantro Network fails to provide ownership or executive details on its website.
In Quantro Network’s marketing material we find a list of executives, none of which actually exist:

Quantro Network’s website domain (“quantronetwork.com”), was privately registered on September 9th, 2025.
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…]
OnyxCard Review: Vault27 Ponzi adds VISA cards
OnyxCard fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.
In fact as I write this, OnyxCard’s website is nothing more than a sign-in form:

OnyxCard’s website domain (“onyxcard.pro”), was privately registered on December 27th, 2025.
On the subdomain “info.onyxcard.pro”, OnyxCard provides a Terms and Conditions page. On this page we learn “OnyxCard is operated by Vault27 Limited”:

Vault27 is a “staking” model MLM crypto Ponzi run by Bruce John Curnick.

Why Curnick’s ownership isn’t disclosed on OnyxCard’s website is unclear.
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…]
BitradeX Review: Olivier Giroud fronts MLM crypto Ponzi
BitradeX fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.
BitradeX launched on the domain “bitradex.com” in or around February 2025.
BitradeX lost its domain towards the end of 2025, prompting a switch to the domain “bitradex.ai” on January 9th;

BitradeX’s .AI domain was privately registered on March 3rd, 2025. It appears to have been dormant and suggests BitradeX has other domains on standby.
Why?
If we look at the WHOIS record for BitradeX’s original .COM domain, we see it has been frozen by the registrar:

As per ICANN, “Domain Status: clientRenewProhibited”
tells your domain’s registry to reject requests to renew your domain. It is an uncommon status that is usually enacted during legal disputes or when your domain is subject to deletion.
It’s likely BitradeX’s .COM domain was flagged for fraud and/or registered with bogus details that could not be verified.
In July 2025 BitradeX rolled out CEO “Nikolai Bonello Jenkins”:

Jenkins has a European accent and, as far as I can tell, does appear to be an actual person from Malta.
It seems BitradeX has moved on from pretending Jenkins exists as he’s mostly disappeared from its marketing.
A visit to BitradeX’s website today features Olivier Giroud front and center:

Giroud is a celebrated French footballer. He is the current all-time top goalscorer of the France national team.
I originally thought BitradeX has misappropriated Giroud’s likeness but Giroud confirmed his involvement in June 2025:

BitradeX is tied to BitradeX Fintech Limited, a UK shell company registered on March 18th, 2025.
As far as I can tell, BitradeX’s UK shell company only exists so that it was able to register its apps on Google Play Store and Apple App Store.

Over on the Apple App Store we can see BitradeX is using “辉 陈” for its developer:

Courtesy of the WayBack Machine we can also see BitradeX’s website was defaulting to Chinese circa November 2025:

This strongly suggests whoever is behind BitradeX has ties to China.
As of January 2026, SimilarWeb was tracking ~646,000 monthly BitradeX website visits.
Top sources of BitradeX website traffic are Japan (23%), Brazil (13%), Malaysia (6%), Saudi Arabia (5%) and Italy (5%).
