in order to protect the right of privacy, the specific name will not be released, such as the case of "Wanfu coin of future city" organized and led pyramid selling activities cracked in Xuzhou, and the official name of its leader is Liu Mou Ben
reporters in some "Wan Fu" promotion website and official account, many of the title of Liu, including the president of the global future city group, former vice governor of California, etc., and many pictures of Liu and foreign dignitaries and celebrities. In order to develop more members, Mr. Liu also held a huge investment promotion conference in Bali, Indonesia, Hong Kong and other places, attracting thousands of people from China
Liu also claimed that "Wanfu coin" was approved by the US Securities Regulatory Commission and the China Banking Regulatory Commission and would soon apply for a direct sales license in China. According to police investigation, "Wanfu coin" as a virtual digital currency has no legal basis to apply for direct marketing license in China, which is purely fictitiousaccording to the relevant person in charge of Xuzhou public security bureau, "Wanfu coin" reflects the new characteristics of the current MLM
1. In the name of virtual currency, virtual currency is a new thing for pyramid selling. At the same time, it is attractive under the banner of e-commerce, personal finance and distance ecation, which is not understood by the general public and easy to be deceived
2. Development members on the Internet are all carried out on the Internet, and members can only join the MLM through the website, and the user names used are pseudonyms or code names, and they all have their own login passwords. They chat with each other mainly through wechat. This has changed the traditional mode of setting up a studio and a newspaper center to organize activities, and increased the concealment of MLM
3. Spread on the Internet
the Internet makes the pyramid selling break through the restrictions of regions and national boundaries. The backbone personnel of pyramid selling often set their headquarters abroad, hide abroad and issue orders. It is difficult to arrest, recover stolen goods and get rid of the roots when funds are transferred abroad
according to the police, there are 100 or 200 kinds of "virtual currency" publicized on the Internet, which is hard to distinguish between true and false. The use of virtual currency for illegal fund-raising, pyramid selling, fraud and other criminal activities are frequent, investors should carefully screen
has the final say:
virtual currency network platform features
1, hype "new concept"
virtual currency network platform has very flexible form, often make only superficial changes, many are just made some concepts, all "game rules" are all platform based, there is a very big black box operation space. p>
2. Advocate "zero risk"
"real zero risk, only make no loss financial project", "China's first FC virtual currency is born, will create countless millionaires again"... The reporter saw that on a flyer page of FC virtual currency, there is such a slogan. A "player" told reporters that other "players" also claimed that in the future, a coin can buy a house
In the case of Yiyang network platform, many participants are over 60 years old, and the oldest is close to 80 years old. They usually spend most of their time at home with their grandchildren. They don't understand the Internet, and they listen to others. The elderly have accumulated a certain amount of wealth, and they don't know much about new things, so it's difficult to identify false propaganda, so it's easy to become the target of these network platformshowever, the attitude of regulators is clear. Whether it is genuine bitcoin, or a variety of derivative Shanzhai coins, there is no way to obtain legal living space at present. This is something we need to be clear about. If the platform goes out of business or the staff runs away, it is very likely that they will lose all their money and the losses they have suffered will not be protected by law
the promises they give you often make the participants pay money quickly. Behind them is the Ponzi scheme of "robbing the east to pay the west" + "cheating the white wolf with empty hands". They use the money of new investors to pay interest and short-term return to old investors, so as to create the illusion of making money and cheat more investment. When no new investors enter, the return of old investors collapses one after another, and it is often difficult to withdraw cash, or the website cannot be opened
in short, although the external form of virtual currency is ever-changing, it is not divorced from its essence of pyramid selling. The more investors put in, the greater the final loss, and the more serious the loss may be.
