Keep more.
Make more.
Live more.

That was the promise.
But somebody had to pay for it.

[Verse 1]

He talked about security,
He talked about a plan,
Real estate and collateral,
Put your future in his hands.

Ten percent every ninety days,
Guaranteed, they said,
Properties standing underneath it,
Nothing here to dread.

Retirement money, savings,
Credit opened wide,
College funds and borrowed cash,
All flowing to one side.

They thought their money built the loans,
They thought the numbers proved it,
But the money wasn't making money—

New investors moved it.

[Pre-Chorus]

The payments kept arriving,
So everybody believed,
Another cheque, another friend,
Another family deceived.

More money through the doorway,
More confidence outside—

While the man who sold financial freedom
Was learning how to Live More inside.

[Chorus]

Keep more!
Make more!
Live more!

A yacht was waiting offshore.

Private jets and Land Rovers,
Cabo underneath the sun,
A luxury bus rolling down the highway—

While the Ponzi kept on running.

Three hundred and eighty million,
More than two thousand lives,
You can dress a lie in real estate—

But you can't hide where the money goes forever.

[Verse 2]

A hundred salespeople selling,
Four percent when money came,
President's Club and Chairman's Council,
Luxury trips became the game.

Put the logo behind home plate,
Put the name upon a car,
Make the company look successful,
Make the founder look the part.

Write a book on financial freedom,
Tell them how the wealthy live,
Show them everything that money buys—

But never show them what produced it.

Because a stadium isn't evidence,
And a yacht can't prove a trade,
A photograph beside success
Doesn't show you how it's paid.

[Pre-Chorus]

Then regulators started digging,
Following every wire,
Through the properties and bank accounts,
The numbers climbed higher.

The collateral started crumbling,
The investment story broke—

Some properties supposedly backing the money
Didn't even exist.

[Chorus]

Keep more!
Make more!
Live more!

That yacht had the perfect name.

Millions flowing into luxury
While investors played the game.

Private jets and Land Rovers,
Cabo underneath the sun,
A Prevost rolling down the highway—

While the Ponzi kept on running.

Three hundred and eighty million,
More than two thousand lives,
The lifestyle wasn't proof of profits—

The investors funded the lifestyle.

[Bridge]

August twenty-four,
The SEC came through the door.

Freeze the assets.
Bring the receiver.
Follow the money.
Find the believers.

The advertisements disappeared,
The guarantees were gone,
And all those symbols of success
Couldn't keep the story strong.

Then January twenty-six—

Guilty.

Wire fraud.

No presentation.
No sales pitch.
No collateral sheet left to hide behind.

Just a courtroom...

And the truth about the money.

[Breakdown]

Seventeen and a half years
Was what the government would recommend.

The judge looked at the damage—

Twenty.

Twenty years.

The maximum.

For the financial strategist
Who taught everybody else
How to bulletproof their finances.

[Final Chorus]

Keep more!
Make more!
Live more!

Now listen to what those words became.

A $380 million Ponzi scheme,
And thousands left carrying the pain.

The yacht can leave the harbour,
The private jet can fly,
You can put your name in stadium lights—

But the blockchain—no.
The bank records don't lie.

Follow the money.
Ignore the show.
Ask where the profits really grow.

Because wealth on Instagram
Doesn't prove a thing—

And guaranteed returns
Should make alarm bells ring.

[Outro]

Keep more.
Make more.
Live more.

That was the slogan.

Twenty years.

That's the sentence.

And somewhere in Orlando
Another man is waiting...

Christopher Delgado.

October twenty-first.

How much time
Do you do
When hundreds of millions disappear?

It started with an email from a Kiwi like me,
Already burned once, looking for some certainty.
BG Wealth was behind him, money already gone,
Then Northcrest and NexusX came quietly along.

Five hundred dollars just to step through the door,
AI and Wall Street promising more.
A dashboard showed a profit, everything looked fine,
Then BonChat became the reason they shut him down online.

[Pre-Chorus]
Bring in three, build a team,
Compound the money, sell the dream.
Daily profits, automated trades,
I wanted proof behind the claims they made.

[Chorus]
Follow the money, follow the chain,
The blockchain remembers what the websites claim.
Northcrest Capital — NexusX,
Show us the trading, show us the evidence.

“Not pooled, not shared, yours” — that's what you said,
But follow that five hundred and look where it led.
You can change the branding, you can change the name,
But you can't rewrite a transaction on the chain.

[Verse 2]
One thousand becoming twenty-nine twenty-six,
Ninety days compounding — that's the pitch.
One-point-two percent a day displayed on the screen,
“SEC regulated” wrapped around the machine.

Three direct referrals, then watch the network grow,
Rank rewards get bigger with the people down below.
Five thousand members, Mercedes at the top,
Twenty thousand people before the levels stop.

Ethan Carter, Wall Street history on display,
Goldman, Morgan Stanley — impressive names to say.
But credentials and agreements hanging on the wall
Still need independent evidence behind them all.

[Chorus]
Follow the money, follow the chain,
The blockchain remembers what the websites claim.
Northcrest Capital — NexusX,
Show us the trading, show us the evidence.

“Not pooled, not shared, yours” — that's what you said,
But follow that five hundred and look where it led.
You can change the branding, you can change the name,
But you can't rewrite a transaction on the chain.

[Verse 3 — CrYptOG Follows The Money]
Then CrYptOG stepped in and followed the trail,
No glossy presentation, no corporate sales email.
Five hundred USDT arrived upon the chain,
Eight hours, twenty-four minutes — then it moved again.

Swept into collection, four minutes later gone,
Inside thirteen thousand dollars moving further on.
A hundred-plus addresses feeding through the flow,
Eight hundred fifty thousand dollars moving through below.

Then the central wallet showed a bigger trail:
Nearly one-point-five million moving through the rails.

So tell me how that squares with what investors were told:

“Not pooled.
Not shared.
Yours.”

[Verse 4]
One route paid a thousand transfers, many relatively small,
Three hundred ninety wallets receiving them in all.
The most common payment? Fifty dollars on the line,
Five hundred seventy-three separate times.

CrYptOG checked the intervals appearing in the flow,
Median ten days between repeat payments going out below.
Nine hundred twelve payments matched advertised amounts,
Ninety-point-two percent when the investigator counts.

Another route moved bigger money through a narrower door,
Six hundred eighteen thousand — and we wanted to know more.
Sixteen transfers moving out to just eleven addresses,
While four destinations took the overwhelming percentage.

The blockchain doesn't name the people or tell us what they knew,
But it records every transaction passing through.

[Bridge — Spoken]
Then there's:

“ZERO CRYPTO. EVER.”

Except the investor was given cryptocurrency addresses.

TRON.
Ethereum.
Bitcoin.

And the five hundred dollars we followed?

USDT on TRON.

So explain it.

Whose car is it anyway? [Intro – Spoken]

Lamborghini.
Rolls-Royce.
G-Wagon.
Bentley.

Everybody's rich on Instagram.

There's just one little question...

Whose car is it anyway?

[Verse 1]

Pull up to the mansion, camera on the drive
Twenty-second reel says, "Look how rich I live my life"
Diamond on the wrist and the Lambo by the door
Same car in another influencer's reel the week before

Pose beside the bonnet, make the people dream
Keys inside your fingers, luxury on screen
Nobody asks the boring stuff when everything looks great
Who's paying for the finance?
Whose name is on the plate?

[Pre-Chorus]

Rent it, lease it, borrow it
Pose beside and follow it
Shoot a reel and call it yours
Success is parked outside the doors

[Chorus]

Whose car is it anyway?
Everybody drives it on a different day
Flash the Rolex, hold the keys
Sell the dream of luxury

Whose car is it anyway?
G-Wagon Monday, Rolls on Saturday
Different influencer, same display
Tell me, whose car is it anyway?

[Verse 2]

Christopher had Lamborghinis shining in the light
Bentleys and the Rolls-Royces made the image look just right
Hundreds of millions flowing while the lifestyle sold the dream
But court records tell you things you never see on Instagram screens

A supercar can photograph like money in the bank
But lenders and secured creditors might have somebody else to thank
Six hundred grand of metal doesn't mean six hundred clear
When the finance company arrives, the equity disappears

[Pre-Chorus]

Rev the engine, shoot the reel
Make the lifestyle look so real
Followers see wealth on cue
But does that prove it belongs to you?

[Chorus]

Whose car is it anyway?
Everybody drives it on a different day
Flash the Rolex, hold the keys
Sell the dream of luxury

Whose car is it anyway?
G-Wagon Monday, Rolls on Saturday
Different influencer, same display
Tell me, whose car is it anyway?

[Verse 3]

Now another trader's standing where the expensive cars are lined
"Young and rich and winning" is the message by design
Five hundred into ten grand, that's the headline that you hear
Luxury in the background makes the promise feel sincere

But cars don't prove a trading system
Watches don't produce a gain
Diamonds don't verify a balance
And a mansion can't explain

Show the statements, show the records
Show the average person wins
Because wealth displayed behind you
Isn't evidence of anything

[Bridge – Half-Time / Spoken-Rap]

Is it owned?
Is it financed?
Is it rented?
Is it Mum's?

Is it borrowed from a friend
Just to make another run?

Is it inventory?
A rental fleet?
A prop to make the reel complete?

I don't care how fast it goes...

Just show the fucking receipts.

[Breakdown]

Same mansion
Same cars
Same watches
Same bars

Different faces
Different names
Different courses
Same old games

You don't prove you're rich
By telling me you're rich

And you don't prove you can trade
By standing beside a Lamborghini.

[Final Chorus]

Whose car is it anyway?
Everybody's wealthy when the camera's aimed their way

Package up prosperity

A hundred percent return.
A hundred-million-dollar fund.
Big numbers. Big names. Big promises.

But I learned something from Goliath...

When the story sounds incredible,
you don't follow the story.

You follow the money.

[VERSE 1]

They came into the picture
when Goliath hit my screen,
Talking due diligence,
wanting to know what I had seen.

They said they'd pulled a name away,
until the facts were clear,
But now I'm looking at Onyx,
and the questions landed here.

Capital, culture, passive wealth,
venture deals and real estate,
A polished world of opportunity,
but evidence can't wait.

You can put success in photographs,
put confidence on display,
But when somebody talks in millions,
I've got questions anyway.

[PRE-CHORUS]

Don't show me the lifestyle.
Don't show me the car.
Don't tell me who you know
or how successful you are.

Show me the structure.
Show me the books.
Show me where the money goes...

Then we'll take another look.

[CHORUS]

One hundred percent?
Show me the money.
A hundred-million-dollar fund?
Show me the money.

Eric McNeil, Tom Shields,
I'm asking what investors should.

Where does it come from?
Where does it go?
Who's independently checking the show?

Big claims need evidence,
that's how it has to be.

Don't sell me credibility —
show me transparency.

[VERSE 2]

Then Coffeezilla pulled a thread,
another story hit the light,
A UFC fighter in the picture,
and numbers that didn't sit right.

So I went back through the material,
presentations, claims and names,
Looking past the personalities,
looking underneath the frame.

Because credibility is powerful,
when reputation leads the way,
Famous faces open doors
before the documents have their say.

But association isn't proof,
and confidence isn't fact,
So every extraordinary promise
needs extraordinary backing attached.

[PRE-CHORUS]

Who holds the capital?
Who audits the return?
What happens when the market falls?
How much can investors burn?

What entity takes the money?
What regulations apply?

Those aren't attacks.

They're questions any investor should ask why.

[CHORUS]

One hundred percent?
Show me the money.
A hundred-million-dollar fund?
Show me the money.

Eric McNeil, Tom Shields,
I'm asking what investors should.

Where does it come from?
Where does it go?
Who's independently checking the show?

Big claims need evidence,
that's how it has to be.

Don't sell me credibility —
show me transparency.

[BRIDGE — STRIPPED BACK / SPOKEN]

I've been here before.

Goliath had the confidence.
Goliath had the promoters.
Goliath had people telling investors
everything was going to be fine.

And when I called it a Ponzi scheme...

They sued me.

But lawsuits don't rewrite evidence.

And neither does silence.

[BUILD]

So I sent the questions.

Then I sent them again.

A right of reply.

Twice.

Because investigations aren't about
deciding the ending before you begin.

They're about giving the evidence
every opportunity to speak.

[BREAKDOWN]

No accusation replaces proof.
No photograph replaces books.
No famous name replaces due diligence.
No promise replaces risk.

And silence doesn't prove a crime...

But it doesn't answer the questions either.

[FINAL CHORUS — BIG]

ONE HUNDRED PERCENT?
SHOW ME THE MONEY!
A HUNDRED-MILLION-DOLLAR FUND?
SHOW ME THE MONEY!

Eric McNeil, Tom Shields,
the questions haven't gone away.

Put the documents on the table.
Let the evidence have its say.

Strip away the lifestyle.
Strip away the show.
Strip away the famous names...

NOW TELL ME WHAT WE KNOW.

Where does it come from?
Where does it go?
Who verifies the numbers
before investors let it go?

You can build a million-dollar story...

But there's one thing you can't fake:

When the evidence has to speak for itself,
how much noise will the silence make?

[OUTRO — QUIET / CINEMATIC]

One hundred percent.

One hundred million.

Two rights of reply.

And one question...

Where's the evidence?

Support the show

]]> [INTRO — SPOKEN / DARK]

A hundred percent return.
A hundred-million-dollar fund.
Big numbers. Big names. Big promises.

But I learned something from Goliath...

When the story sounds incredible,
you don't follow the story.

You follow the money.

[VERSE 1]

They came into the picture
when Goliath hit my screen,
Talking due diligence,
wanting to know what I had seen.

They said they'd pulled a name away,
until the facts were clear,
But now I'm looking at Onyx,
and the questions landed here.

Capital, culture, passive wealth,
venture deals and real estate,
A polished world of opportunity,
but evidence can't wait.

You can put success in photographs,
put confidence on display,
But when somebody talks in millions,
I've got questions anyway.

[PRE-CHORUS]

Don't show me the lifestyle.
Don't show me the car.
Don't tell me who you know
or how successful you are.

Show me the structure.
Show me the books.
Show me where the money goes...

Then we'll take another look.

[CHORUS]

One hundred percent?
Show me the money.
A hundred-million-dollar fund?
Show me the money.

Eric McNeil, Tom Shields,
I'm asking what investors should.

Where does it come from?
Where does it go?
Who's independently checking the show?

Big claims need evidence,
that's how it has to be.

Don't sell me credibility —
show me transparency.

[VERSE 2]

Then Coffeezilla pulled a thread,
another story hit the light,
A UFC fighter in the picture,
and numbers that didn't sit right.

So I went back through the material,
presentations, claims and names,
Looking past the personalities,
looking underneath the frame.

Because credibility is powerful,
when reputation leads the way,
Famous faces open doors
before the documents have their say.

But association isn't proof,
and confidence isn't fact,
So every extraordinary promise
needs extraordinary backing attached.

[PRE-CHORUS]

Who holds the capital?
Who audits the return?
What happens when the market falls?
How much can investors burn?

What entity takes the money?
What regulations apply?

Those aren't attacks.

They're questions any investor should ask why.

[CHORUS]

One hundred percent?
Show me the money.
A hundred-million-dollar fund?
Show me the money.

Eric McNeil, Tom Shields,
I'm asking what investors should.

Where does it come from?
Where does it go?
Who's independently checking the show?

Big claims need evidence,
that's how it has to be.

Don't sell me credibility —
show me transparency.

[BRIDGE — STRIPPED BACK / SPOKEN]

I've been here before.

Goliath had the confidence.
Goliath had the promoters.
Goliath had people telling investors
everything was going to be fine.

And when I called it a Ponzi scheme...

They sued me.

But lawsuits don't rewrite evidence.

And neither does silence.

[BUILD]

So I sent the questions.

Then I sent them again.

A right of reply.

Twice.

Because investigations aren't about
deciding the ending before you begin.

They're about giving the evidence
every opportunity to speak.

[BREAKDOWN]

No accusation replaces proof.
No photograph replaces books.
No famous name replaces due diligence.
No promise replaces risk.

And silence doesn't prove a crime...

But it doesn't answer the questions either.

[FINAL CHORUS — BIG]

ONE HUNDRED PERCENT?
SHOW ME THE MONEY!
A HUNDRED-MILLION-DOLLAR FUND?
SHOW ME THE MONEY!

[Intro – Spoken, dark and restrained]

Four hundred and twenty-five million dollars.
More than thirteen hundred investors.
The SEC says it was a Ponzi scheme.
The CFTC traced three hundred and ninety-seven million.

And then they found another number.

One hundred and seventy-four million dollars...
Transferred to directors and staff.

So now there’s only one question:

Who got the money?

[Verse 1]

They called it Goliath, said the giant couldn't fall,
Crypto liquidity pools were gonna make it all.
Three percent monthly, thirty-six a year,
Guaranteed principal made the risk disappear.

The dashboards showed profits, the statements looked clean,
Private jets and supercars completed the dream.
Christmas at the Four Seasons, champagne in the air,
If everybody's getting paid, why would anybody care?

But behind every number was a question nobody knew,
Were those liquidity pools actually doing what they said they'd do?

Now the SEC says the answer is clear:

Not one investor dollar was invested there.

[Pre-Chorus]

The money came in,
The payments went out.
The lifestyle got bigger,
While nobody asked how.

[Chorus]

Who got the money?
Where did it go?
Four hundred and twenty-five million,
Now everybody wants to know.

Eighty-seven million paying customers,
Forty-eight million on the CEO,
One hundred and seventy-four million
To directors and staff —

So who got the money?
Follow it and we'll know.

[Verse 2]

They weren't selling fear, they were selling trust,
Friends brought friends because somebody must
Have checked the contracts, checked the trades,
Checked the wallets where the money was supposedly made.

Delgado called it Orlando's “cool kids club,”
The influential came around and everybody looked up.
Doctors and businessmen, connections and names,
Every successful face added fuel to the flames.

Directors recruited, commissions were paid,
While the appearance of prosperity grew every day.

But a commission doesn't prove somebody knew.

That's why the money trail matters now —
What did they know, and when did they know it too?

[Chorus]

Who got the money?

So who got the money?

[Verse 3]

Then the machinery started running dry,
And suddenly there was another reason why.

Banking problems.
Delayed withdrawals.
A forensic audit was supposed to explain it all.

But the CFTC now alleges
That audit never existed at all.

By November twenty-five, according to the SEC,
New money couldn't arrive fast enough to feed
The obligations already waiting at the door.

The illusion couldn't finance itself anymore.

And while investors waited for answers to come,
The numbers underneath were finally coming undone.

[Bridge – Building]

September ninth — cease and desist.

“Legitimate company.”

“Not a Ponzi scheme.”

September twenty-second —
They filed the lawsuit.

They tried to silence the questions
Instead of answering them.

But lawyers can't change bank records.
Luxury can't manufacture profits.
A dashboard can't create liquidity.

And a lawsuit can't stop the money trail.

[Breakdown]

SEC says four hundred twenty-five million.

CFTC says three hundred ninety-seven million.

About eighty-seven million paid to customers.

About forty-eight million attributed to Delgado's personal spending.

And approximately...

ONE HUNDRED
AND SEVENTY-FOUR
MILLION DOLLARS

Transferred to directors and staff,
Often as commissions for recruiting customers.

Now tell me—

WHO GOT IT?

[Final Chorus – Huge]

Who got the money?
Where did it go?
Four hundred and twenty-five million,
And we're following every road.

Forget the Lamborghinis,
Forget the private show,
The biggest story isn't only
What Christopher Delgado stole.

Follow every payment,
Every commission, every name,
Because when the music stops
Someone has to explain—

Who got the money?
What did they know?
Who kept recruiting
While the whole thing started to fold?

Who got the money?
Who helped it grow?

One hundred and seventy-four million reasons
To keep following where it goes.

[Outro – Spoken]

Christopher Delgado pleaded guilty.

There are still payments.

They built another website overnight,
Put Wall Street pictures underneath the lights,
A shiny little logo, a certificate too,
A man you've never met says, “I've got something for you.”

“Don't worry about trading, we've got experts inside,
Just follow the signals, come along for the ride,
Deposit your crypto, we'll handle the rest,
Our artificial genius only picks the best.”

They've got SEC written all over the screen,
FINRA and FinCEN to make it look clean,
But registration doesn't mean what they say,
And somehow that detail gets hidden away.

[Pre-Chorus]
If the money was easy,
If the profits were free,
Why would some stranger
Need an investment from me?

[Chorus]
Wake up before you pay up,
Learn before you lose,
A fancy little dashboard
Doesn't make the numbers true.

Wake up before you pay up,
Ask who holds the cash,
Because the next amazing opportunity
Could be the same old scam.

New logo, new website,
New professor with a plan,
But education is the weapon
That can stop it where it stands.

[Verse 2]
“Follow our analysts — easy profits!” they say,
“Unlimited potential!” — what could go astray?
Professional traders with incredible gains,
But ask for their credentials and nobody explains.

Your balance keeps climbing, you're feeling alive,
Ten becomes twenty, then twenty becomes five—
Hundred thousand dollars glowing on your phone,
But try taking it out and suddenly you're alone.

“Pay another tax.”
“Your account has been frozen.”
“Upgrade to VIP.”
“Your withdrawal wasn't chosen.”

Funny how the problems only start to appear
When you stop sending money and try getting it here.

Learn before you lose,

But education is the weapon

They show you a certificate, framed up nice,
Because official-looking paper has a psychological price,
Colorado corporation — “See, we're legitimate!”
But registering a company doesn't validate an investment.

Then comes the alphabet marching in line:
SEC, FINRA, MSB — everything looks fine,
Until somebody bothers to check what they mean,
And the regulatory story isn't quite what it seemed.

One page says they're regulated,
Another says “underway,”
One says leverage comes tomorrow,
Another sells it today.

And buried in the contract, for everyone to see:
“Governed by the laws of...

BECOME YOUR FINANCIAL FRIEND!

WAKE UP BEFORE YOU PAY UP!

BUT WE'VE SEEN THIS BLOODY GAME!

“How much can I make?”

Start asking,
“How can I verify it?”

Can I verify the shares?
Can I withdraw my money
Without paying something else?

Don't show me screenshots.
Don't show me your mate got paid.
Don't show me numbers on an app
That somebody else has made.

Show me evidence.

[Verse 4]
Because yesterday was BG Wealth,
Tomorrow something new,
Same promises recycled
For another trusting crew.

They'll change the website address,
They'll change the token name,
They'll find another “professor”
And restart the bloody game.

And every time it collapses,
Someone says, “How could we know?”
But the warning signs were screaming
Long before the money flowed.

We cannot stop every scammer,
We cannot close every door,
But we can make their job much harder
Than it ever was before.

Congratulations!

Are you a freelancer looking for work?
Are you a business looking for talent?
Are you looking to grow your sales?

Fantastic!

We have a funnel for that.

[MUSIC KICKS IN]

[VERSE 1]

Welcome to Recrutu,
Tell us who you are,
Worker or a business,
We’ll point you near or far.

Looking for employment?
SmartWorker knows the way.
Looking for an assistant?
There’s another page to pay.

Want somebody overseas,
Working while you sleep?
Pre-vetted, AI-trained,
And apparently working cheap.

Top five percent, top two percent,
Top one percent today,
I’m following the numbers, Nurik,
So tell me what they say.

[PRE-CHORUS]

Click here, click there,
Another doorway everywhere.
One little website led me through
A whole damn ecosystem built by Recrutu.

[CHORUS]

YOU’RE HIRED! YOU’RE HIRED!
That’s what the advertising said.

YOU’RE HIRED! YOU’RE HIRED!
But another funnel waits ahead.

Five bucks an hour,
Twelve bucks an hour,
Top one percent for hire!

Twenty-seven dollars gets you through,
Then three-nine-seven takes you higher!

YOU’RE HIRED!

Welcome to Recrutu!

[VERSE 2]

Fifteen thousand workers,
Five hundred placements made,
Thousands pre-vetted,
At least that’s what they say.

Retention through the ceiling,
Ghosting almost gone,
Numbers looking beautiful,
So where’d they all come from?

Atlanta to Alaska,
Kazakhstan as well,
SmartWorker, Bridges Agency,
There’s quite a tale to tell.

And when I followed every link,
Something became clear:

Recruit the worker,
Recruit the boss,
There’s something for everyone here!

[CHORUS]

YOU’RE HIRED! YOU’RE HIRED!
That’s what the advertising said.

YOU’RE HIRED! YOU’RE HIRED!
But another funnel waits ahead.

Top five percent!
Top two percent!
Top one percent for hire!

Three dollars, five dollars, twelve dollars —
Watch those numbers climb!

YOU’RE HIRED!

Welcome to Recrutu!

[BREAKDOWN — FUNKY / SPOKEN]

Hold on...

Twenty-seven dollars?

What do I get?

A playbook!

Templates!

Community access!

Lifetime access?

Fantastic!

Wait...

Thirty days free...

Then forty-seven dollars a year?

I thought you said lifetime?

[BACKING SINGERS]

Lifetime!
Lifetime!
Terms may apply!

[VERSE 3]

Then there’s Concierge Placement,
If doing it yourself gets tough,
Three hundred ninety-seven dollars,
And they’ll apparently handle the stuff.

And buried in the marketing,
The economics come alive:

Some customers buy concierge,
And that keeps the tripwire alive.

Then Bridges starts selling funnels,
VibeFunnels joins the show,
Digital products, AI prompts,
Another place your money can go.

What started as recruitment
Has become a bigger machine.

I went looking for a headhunter...

And found a marketing scene.

[MUSIC STOPS]

[CORPORATE VOICE]

But wait!

There’s more!

Have you checked your calendar?

[SINGLE NOTIFICATION DING]

[VERSE 4 — DARKER]

People say invitations
Just appeared without a say,
Webinars and appointments
They swear they never made.

Different years, different reviews,
The complaints kept showing through.

So I asked a simple question:

Who invited who?

Was it automation?
Was it marketing?
Was permission ever there?

Because putting something in my calendar
Doesn’t mean I asked you there.

[BUILD]

So Nurik, here’s your opportunity,
No ambush and no disguise.

Show me where I’ve got it wrong,
And show me evidence behind the claims.

[FINAL CHORUS — HUGE]

YOU’RE HIRED! YOU’RE HIRED!

Workers waiting in the queue!

YOU’RE HIRED! YOU’RE HIRED!

There’s a product waiting too!

SmartWorker for the freelancer,
Recrutu finds the crew,

Bridges builds the funnels,

AND VIBEFUNNELS SELLS THEM TOO!

Top five percent!
Top two percent!
Top one percent today!

Fifteen thousand workers?

Show me how you counted them
And I’ll tell people what you say!

[BREAK — HALF TIME]

Because this isn't about
Whether I like your business.

It isn't about
Whether your workers are good.

It's about whether the claims

YOU’RE HIRED! YOU’RE HIRED!

Everybody sing along!

YOU’RE HIRED! YOU’RE HIRED!

If the numbers check out, prove me wrong!

From Kazakhstan to Alaska,
I followed every clue.

I came looking for a recruitment company...

AND FOUND THE FUNNEL TOO!

]]> [INTRO — CHEESY CORPORATE ANNOUNCER]

Congratulations!

Are you a freelancer looking for work?
Are you a business looking for talent?
Are you looking to grow your sales?

Fantastic!

We have a funnel for that.

[MUSIC KICKS IN]

[VERSE 1]

Welcome to Recrutu,
Tell us who you are,
Worker or a business,
We’ll point you near or far.

Looking for employment?
SmartWorker knows the way.
Looking for an assistant?
There’s another page to pay.

Want somebody overseas,
Working while you sleep?
Pre-vetted, AI-trained,
And apparently working cheap.

Top five percent, top two percent,
Top one percent today,
I’m following the numbers, Nurik,
So tell me what they say.

[PRE-CHORUS]

Click here, click there,
Another doorway everywhere.
One little website led me through
A whole damn ecosystem built by Recrutu.

[CHORUS]

YOU’RE HIRED! YOU’RE HIRED!
That’s what the advertising said.

YOU’RE HIRED! YOU’RE HIRED!
But another funnel waits ahead.

Five bucks an hour,
Twelve bucks an hour,
Top one percent for hire!

Twenty-seven dollars gets you through,
Then three-nine-seven takes you higher!

YOU’RE HIRED!

Welcome to Recrutu!

[VERSE 2]

Fifteen thousand workers,
Five hundred placements made,
Thousands pre-vetted,
At least that’s what they say.

Retention through the ceiling,
Ghosting almost gone,
Numbers looking beautiful,
So where’d they all come from?

Atlanta to Alaska,
Kazakhstan as well,
SmartWorker, Bridges Agency,
There’s quite a tale to tell.

And when I followed every link,
Something became clear:

Recruit the worker,
Recruit the boss,
There’s something for everyone here!

[CHORUS]

YOU’RE HIRED! YOU’RE HIRED!
That’s what the advertising said.

YOU’RE HIRED! YOU’RE HIRED!
But another funnel waits ahead.

Top five percent!
Top two percent!
Top one percent for hire!

Three dollars, five dollars, twelve dollars —
Watch those numbers climb!

YOU’RE HIRED!

Welcome to Recrutu!

[BREAKDOWN — FUNKY / SPOKEN]

Hold on...

Twenty-seven dollars?

What do I get?

A playbook!

Templates!

Community access!

Lifetime access?

Fantastic!

Wait...

Thirty days free...

Then forty-seven dollars a year?

I thought you said lifetime?

[BACKING SINGERS]

Lifetime!
Lifetime!
Terms may apply!

[VERSE 3]

Then there’s Concierge Placement,
If doing it yourself gets tough,
Three hundred ninety-seven dollars,
And they’ll apparently handle the stuff.

And buried in the marketing,
The economics come alive:

Some customers buy concierge,
And that keeps the tripwire alive.

Then Bridges starts selling funnels,
VibeFunnels joins the show,
Digital products, AI prompts,
Another place your money can go.

What started as recruitment
Has become a bigger machine.

I went looking for a headhunter...

And found a marketing scene.

[MUSIC STOPS]

[CORPORATE VOICE]

But wait!

There’s more!

Have you checked your calendar?

[SINGLE NOTIFICATION DING]

[VERSE 4 — DARKER]

People say invitations
Just appeared without a say,
Webinars and appointments
They swear they never made.

Different years, different reviews,
The complaints kept showing through.

So I asked a simple question:

Who invited who?

Was it automation?
Was it marketing?
Was permission ever there?

Because putting something in my calendar
Doesn’t mean I asked you there.

[BUILD]

So Nurik, here’s your opportunity,
No ambush and no disguise.

Show me where I’ve got it wrong,
And show me evidence behind the claims.

[FINAL CHORUS — HUGE]

YOU’RE HIRED! YOU’RE HIRED!

Workers waiting in the queue!

YOU’RE HIRED! YOU’RE HIRED!

There’s a product waiting too!

SmartWorker for the freelancer,
Recrutu finds the crew,

Bridges builds the funnels,

AND VIBEFUNNELS SELLS THEM TOO!

Top five percent!
Top two percent!
Top one percent today!

Fifteen thousand workers?

Show me how you counted them
And I’ll tell people what you say!

[BREAK — HALF TIME]

Because this isn't about
Whether I like your business.

It isn't about
Whether your workers are good.

It's about whether the claims
Match the evidence.

[FINAL BUILD]

How much comes from recruitment?

How much comes from training?

How much comes from funnels?

How much comes from upselling?

And when somebody wakes up
With your webinar in their calendar...

Who put it there?

[FINAL CHORUS]

YOU’RE HIRED! YOU’RE HIRED!

Said, "Friend, I've got a better plan,"
Five hundred dollars, follow my trades,
Watch your little bankroll multiply in days.

He's got the screenshots, he's got the proof,
Another winning session coming through,
A licence framed up nice upon the wall,
But ask who issued it — no answer at all.

Seventy-eight percent, another winning day,
Fifteen grand profit — that's what the messages say,
Sixty-seven trades and everyone's rich,
Every screenshot somehow lands without a hitch.

But where are the losses? Where's the audit trail?
Who are the people behind every glowing tale?
I searched for the man, I searched for the face,
But independent answers were remarkably hard to trace.

You sold them the dream.
Domes in the mountains.
Money every month.
Contracts on the table.

But when the dream disappeared...

We followed the paperwork.

[VERSE 1]

Forty percent when the money came in,
Before a single guest could even check in.
Contracts signed and promises made,
Six figures down for a future prepaid.

Salesmen talking, closing the deal,
Pictures made the whole thing look real.
Domes in the distance, paradise sold,
Then the payments stopped and the story got old.

[PRE-CHORUS]

One side says, “I didn't know.”
One says, “I only made the sale.”
But somebody took the money...

And somebody failed.

[CHORUS]

FOLLOW THE MONEY!
Show me where it went!
FOLLOW THE MONEY!
Every dollar, every cent!

You can blame the weather,
You can blame the plan,
But a signed contract
Still bears your hand!

FOLLOW THE MONEY!
No more stories, no disguise.
When the paperwork starts talking...

THE TRUTH DOESN'T NEED AN ALIBI!

[VERSE 2]

Then PhoneSales opened up the files,
CRM records stretching for miles.
Names and contracts, leads on the screen,
Deals appearing where they shouldn't have been.

They confronted Devon face-to-face,
Pulled up the contracts, case by case.
Three hundred thousand — search it again,
Where was the payment? Where had it been?

Then came the words caught on the call:

“Anything that comes through, I just sign it...”

No checking the contracts.
No answers at all.

[BREAKDOWN]

YOU SIGNED IT!
THEY PAID IT!

YOU PROMISED!
THEY WAITED!

Build the dome!
Pay the return!
Give the refund!

HOW MANY TIMES
CAN THE SAME MONEY BURN?

[VERSE 3]

Then Lorenzo stepped into the light,
Said he was fooled, said he wants to make it right.
Hundreds of thousands in commissions received,
While the people he sold to still feel deceived.

He says when his contract finally ends,
He'll be more willing to make amends.
Three grand a month, but equity instead,
While victims remember every promise they read.

I won't call him guilty for somebody else's crime,
But accountability doesn't disappear with time.

If you sold the dream,
If you took the pay...

What do you owe
When the dream falls away?

[CHORUS]

FOLLOW THE MONEY!
Show me where it went!
FOLLOW THE MONEY!
Every dollar, every cent!

You can blame the permits,
The contractors and rain,
But none of those excuses
Make the victims whole again!

FOLLOW THE MONEY!
Put the evidence before our eyes.
Because when the bank records start talking...

THE TRUTH DOESN'T NEED AN ALIBI!

[BRIDGE — SLOW, MENACING]

And now...

Another resort.

Another cabin.

Another investment pitch.

Three hundred thousand dollars in.

“Up to $1.2 million write-off.”

Monthly cash flow.

Contractual payments.

A target IRR.

Lorenzo says he learned from Global Glamping.

So this time...

We'll be watching from the beginning.

I'm not calling it fraud.
I'm not calling it a scam.

Pull up to the mansion, gates open wide
Eight million dollars sitting polished inside
Lamborghini screaming down an Orlando road
Everybody watching thought they cracked the code

Private flights, bright lights, another VIP
Downtown headquarters dressed in luxury
If the man with your money lives better than kings
You stop asking questions about how much it brings

They weren't selling numbers, they were selling the view
Selling what a rich man's life could look like for you
And every new investor looking in from below
Saw all of that money and thought, he must know

And a supercar doesn't tell you who's paid yet

Past the mansion gates and the private show
The cars looked rich, the offices glowed
But where did the money go?

Where did the money go?
Three hundred twenty-eight million through the flow
Strip off the lifestyle, follow what they owe
Tell the victims —
Where did the money go?

[Verse 2]
Then the federal papers landed on the desk
And suddenly the picture didn't look its best
Mortgage on the Phelps house, two million deep
More debts behind the properties they couldn't keep

Taxes at Isleworth waiting to be paid
Association bills underneath the charade
The headquarters bought with no mortgage at all
Now the government wants to put a price on the walls

And that Lamborghini everybody knew
Six hundred twenty-five when the bidding was through
But after secured interests took what they were owed
Twenty thousand dollars was the government load

That's the difference between the price and the truth
Between looking successful and showing the proof
Take away the cameras, the parties, the show
And we're back to the question everybody wants to know

Where you live, what you drive, who remembers your name
Fly private, look wealthy, let the image speak
Make success look obvious before investors peek

Welcome to the cool kids, everybody's inside
Money meets status and status becomes pride
When your wealthy friends are already in the room
Due diligence gets quieter underneath the perfume

But luxury isn't evidence that profits are real
A mansion doesn't tell you how investors will feel
When withdrawals stop coming and the promises fold
And everything that glittered has to finally be sold

I could see the homes.
I could see the parties
And the expensive clothes.

I could follow the companies.
I could question the show.
But I couldn't see the bank accounts
Or everywhere the money would go.

Then the government followed
What nobody could see.

Was a financial reality.

And now those trophies of success
Are being priced and sold...

But does that explain

WHERE DID THE MONEY GO?
Past the mansion gates and the private show
Lamborghini dreams on an investor's dough
Where did the money go?

WHERE DID THE MONEY GO?
Sell the houses, count what's owed
Pay the banks and clear the road
Then tell the victims what is left
When every luxury has been sold

Where did the money go?
That's the question underneath it all
Behind the cars, behind the homes
Behind the pictures on the wall

Three hundred twenty-eight million reasons
Not to let this story go

So follow every dollar
Until somebody can answer:

Where did the money go?

The mansion was real.
The Lamborghini was real.
The headquarters was real.

But none of them proved

[Final Chorus – full band + choir]
WHERE DID THE MONEY GO?
Past the mansion gates and the private show
Lamborghini dreams on an investor's dough
Where did the money go?

WHERE DID THE MONEY GO?
Sell the houses, count what's owed
Pay the banks and clear the road
Then tell the victims what is left
When every luxury has been sold

Where did the money go?
That's the question underneath it all
Behind the cars, behind the homes
Behind the pictures on the wall

Three hundred twenty-eight million reasons
Not to let this story go

So follow every dollar
Until somebody can answer:

Where did the money go?

[Outro – quiet piano]
The mansion was real.
The Lamborghini was real.
The headquarters was real.

But none of them proved
the profits were real.

And somewhere behind all that lifestyle...

is the money trail.

Young, rich, everybody look at me
Rolex shining for the camera, naturally
Got another reel, got another mention
Everybody wants money and attention

He wants money and attention
Flash cars lined up in every direction
Five hundred bucks to ten grand, that's the lesson
Ask another question, now we're starting the tension

Money and attention
Money and attention
If Danny asks for evidence
Here comes another Instagram session

[Verse 1]
Diamond glasses, joint burning in the sun
Luxury rentals making everybody think you've won
Rolex on the wrist, camera pointed at the ride
But ask who owns the cars and suddenly we're going for a drive

"I'm just an investor, I never recruited"
Okay, that's exactly what the article reported
Six weeks of questions sitting there unanswered
Then the investigation drops and suddenly Danny's the bastard

[Pre-Chorus]
Call me names again
Threaten me again
Tell the whole Internet
You're coming for me again

Ask another question, now we're starting the tension

Money and attention
Money and attention
Forty minutes on the telephone
Now everybody gets the whole conversation

[Verse 2]
One hundred kilos, ten months away
Now we're debating marijuana law in the USA
"I'm not a criminal, they'll clear it one day"
Mate, I'm only reading what the records actually say

Then it's OnlyFans management, another new plan
High-value lifestyle, high-value man
Trading education, prop firms on the screen
Half a million buying power — but what does that really mean?

[Pre-Chorus]
Show the receipts again
Follow the facts again
Don't need a Lamborghini
To know where the money went

[Chorus]
He wants money and attention
Diamond glasses getting everyone's attention
Five hundred bucks to ten grand, that's the lesson
But apparently it takes months before you reach that progression

Money and attention
Money and attention
Funny what you learn
When you ask a couple questions

[Bridge – spoken/rap section]
Drug test Danny
Polygraph Danny
Check his computer
Investigate Danny

Spend a hundred grand
Put his name everywhere
Forty fake stories?
Mate, I've already been there

You can call me ugly
You can call me strange
But insults aren't evidence
And facts don't rearrange

You say you're the victim
Then tell us what occurred
I'll publish the evidence
Not somebody's word

A message on my screen
A stranger says my name
A smile behind a fake disguise
Nothing is the same

They promise they're a friend
They say that they understand
But every word they ever wrote
Was part of their demand

[Pre-Chorus]

They want my fear
They want my shame
They think I'll never say a thing

But they're wrong...

[Chorus]

I won't stay silent
I won't hide away
You're not taking who I am
You don't get to steal my name

No amount of fear
Can make me disappear

I'll tell someone

I'll stand up

You're the one who should be ashamed

[Verse 2]

They hide behind a screen
Pretending they're a friend
But every lie they ever told
Will catch up in the end

They count on us to panic
To think we're all alone
But millions know this trick now

We're stronger than we've ever known

Tell somebody.

If you're hurting...

Tell somebody.

You don't get to choose my fate

Together we are louder

Together we are brave

The truth is stronger than your lies

Love is stronger than your hate

Behind every stolen face

There's someone hoping

We'll stay afraid

But courage spreads

Faster than fear

We won't back down

The world is watching now

No more hiding

No more shame

Together we'll break these chains

One brave voice

Could save a life someday

Well I met a bloke online yesterday,
Said he'd found a brand new game to play.
"Just click Up, mate, or maybe Down,
We'll all be millionaires by Christmas now."

He flashed a chart, he flashed a smile,
Talked passive income all the while.
Said, "Luck's been replaced by strategy,"
I nearly spilled my cup of tea.

Pre-Chorus

Everybody's got tomorrow's news,
Everybody's wearing betting shoes.
Nobody can tell me why...
They all think they're psychic guys.

Chorus

Predict, predict...
Flip another digital brick.
Up or Down,
Round and round,
Everybody's wearing the prediction crown.

Passive income?
So they say.
Tomorrow's jackpot...
Any day.

If guessing's now a business plan,
I've got a bridge to sell the man!

Verse 2

Brian's flexing at the gym,
Talking like the odds love him.
"We raised millions!" loud and proud,
Everyone's applauding in the crowd.

Screens are flashing green and blue,
Promises are coming through.
But underneath the fancy graphs...
I'm still looking for the maths.

Pre-Chorus

Everybody's got the secret code,
Everybody's on the easy road.
Funny how the future's bright...
Till someone turns off all the lights.

Chorus

Predict, predict...
Flip another digital brick.
Up or Down,
Spin around,
Someone tell me who's cashing out?

Passive income,
Sounds so sweet.
Till reality...
Misses a beat.

If luck became a guaranteed skill,
Las Vegas would be bankrupt still!

Bridge

Crystal balls and Telegram,
Another self-proclaimed smart man.
Charts and arrows everywhere...
But evidence?
It's pretty rare.

Questions first...
Cash comes later.
Don't confuse...
A dream with data.

Final Chorus

Predict, predict...
Everybody's getting rich...
On paper!

Up or Down,
Who's the clown?
Still no answers coming round.

Ask the questions.
Check the facts.
Read the small print...
Front to back.

Because tomorrow's easy to sell...
When nobody can really tell!

You can predict the weather...
You can predict the tide...

Told the crowd, "I'm the one who makes the most."
Lamborghini, Bentley, Cadillac too,
Everybody thought, "That could be you."

Private jets and designer clothes,
Luxury living everywhere he goes.
Selfies taken... dreams on display...

Who paid the bill?
Who owned the keys...

But who was making the payments anyway?

Sometimes the lender owns the superstar.

(Verse 2)

Then the court files hit the news,
Telling a story nobody could choose.
Finance owing, liens to pay,
The picture changed in a different way.

One dealer came... then walked away...
Factory wheels had gone astray.
Funny how the truth gets found...
In legal filings, not a livestream downtown.

Big shiny smiles...
Big TV shows...
But one little question...
Nobody chose.

Big chrome wheels and a millionaire grin...
Till the finance company came rolling in.

Whose car was it anyway?
The paperwork had the final say.
You can pose... you can boast...
But the lender might own your Ghost.

(Bridge)

There's nothing wrong with financing a ride,
Millions of honest people do it with pride.
But don't sell a dream that's built on a loan,
Then claim every badge and key is your own.

Seven hours talking...
Not one finance line...
Just the luxury lifestyle...
Looking mighty fine.

They promised futures written in code,
An AI engine on the blockchain road.
Passive profits every single day,
But the evidence kept slipping away.

Webinars filled with polished dreams,
Luxury lifestyles, perfect streams.
"Trust the system," they would say,
But the blockchain told another way.

Pre-Chorus

Every wallet leaves a trail,
Every transaction tells a tale.
You can market hope, you can market hype,
But you can't rewrite the blockchain's type.

Chorus

The AI trading bot that doesn't trade,
A billion promises carefully made.
Follow the money, follow the chain,
Truth survives while the lies decay.

The dashboard shines, the numbers glow,
But where's the proof we're meant to know?
When the marketing fades into the night,
The blockchain keeps the ledger right.

Verse 2

Crypto G pulled back the veil,
Following every digital trail.
Smart contracts opened line by line,
Searching for the missing signs.

Questions echoed far and wide,
Could the evidence survive the ride?
AI claims filled every screen,
But reality wasn't what it seemed.

Pre-Chorus

Regulators raised alarms,
Still they sold financial charms.
Different faces, different names,
Yet every pitch sounded the same.

Just plug it in and walk away."

Working night and day.

Powering the future,
Building something new.

So I started asking questions...

The answers never came through.

Pre-Chorus

They call it infrastructure.

They call it DePIN too.

But one simple question...

Who's really paying you?

Chorus

It's just a tiny little box...

Bought online today.

Stick a shiny logo on it,

Then sell the dream away.

Tiny little box...

Big expensive claim.

Looks like yesterday's computer...

With tomorrow's different name.

Blockchain Era.

Then XERA joined the ride.

Now it's called NodeLink,

But the marketing

Still looks familiar inside.

The promises stay the same.

Different logo.

Different website.

Exactly the same old game.

Chorus

Bought online today.

Call it decentralised...

Hope nobody asks how it's paid.

Tiny little box...

Daily rewards appear.

But where's the outside revenue

Everybody wants to hear?

Bridge

Buy the box.

Buy the units.

Recruit another five.

Unlock another bonus.

Instead of customer demand...

Maybe that's the biggest clue

People should understand.

Locked-up tokens.

Waiting years.

PowerPoints and projections

Leading people all one way.

Anyone can see.

So what's actually special...

Final Chorus

It's just a tiny little box...

Should flash inside your head.

They said this was the future,
Real estate upon the chain.
Buy a token, earn forever,
Watch the passive income rain.

They told me I just didn't get it,
Said I was spreading fear and doubt.
So I opened up the records,
And started checking everything out.

I watched the webinars and Zoom calls,
Read every filing I could find.
Funny how the deeper I dug...
The harder truth became to find.

[Pre-Chorus]

I searched the companies.
I checked the names.
I followed the money...
Then followed it again.

The marketing sparkled.
The evidence stalled.
Somebody had answers...
Just not for us all.

[Chorus]

E-Estate... business as usual...
That's what the promoters say.
Texas served a cease and desist,
But they kept recruiting anyway.

"Don't read the Order..."
"Trust us instead..."

When somebody fears your questions,
That's a red flag in my head.

[Verse 2]

Executive profiles looked impressive,
Corporate websites shining bright.
Every slide looked picture perfect,
Everything looked polished right.

They talked about the properties,
The profits rolling in.
But when I followed every document...
The questions would begin.

They said, "Don't worry, we've got lawyers."
They smiled and carried on.
Funny how the sales pitch never changed,
Even after Texas came along.

Just keep believing every word.
If you ask too many questions,
You'll be told you're just disturbed.

Read the filings.
Check the facts.
Don't let confidence replace the truth,
'Cause sometimes it never comes back.

They waved an SEC filing,
Like it settled every doubt.
But page one tells a different story...
Maybe read the whole thing out.

It wasn't an approval.
It wasn't rubber stamped.
Sometimes paperwork gets used
To make a sales pitch sound more grand.

Zoom meetings every evening,
Facebook Live all day.

Said, "Keep digging through the files."

Keeps stretching mile by mile.

Every claim deserved a look.

Wasn't written in the book.

I don't sell dreams.

Not another place to stay.
They painted something so much bigger...
A business built the modern way.

Pre-Chorus

Every brochure looked convincing,
Every Zoom call built belief.
Every answer sounded simple,
Every promise brought relief.

Chorus

The dome was never really the dream...
It was everything behind it.
The plans...
The future...
The life they said I'd find in it.

I wasn't buying steel and canvas,
Or mountain air beneath the stars.
I was buying into something
That promised I could go so far.

The dome was just the building...
The promise was the plan.
And every investor hopes those promises...
Become more than words in hand.

Verse 2

Contracts signed and money wired,
Timelines written nice and neat.
Every question had an answer,
Every handshake felt complete.

"Construction's moving."
"Guests are booking."
"Everything is going great."
Then the calendar kept turning,
While everybody learned to wait.

One more email...
One more reason...
One more unexpected turn.
Hope can carry people forward...
Till hope becomes concern.

Pre-Chorus

Maybe weather changes projects.
Maybe permits take their time.
Business isn't always perfect...
No one's saying that's a crime.

But every investor's asking...
The same question in the end.

Chorus

The dome was never really the dream...
It was everything behind it.
The plans...
The future...
The life they said I'd find in it.

I wasn't buying steel and canvas,
Or mountain air beneath the stars.
I was buying into something
That promised I could go so far.

The dome was just the building...
The promise was the plan.
Trust is something earned forever...
Not something sold by hand.

Verse 3

Then I found some other people,
Different towns but similar roads.
Different contracts...
Different stories...
Different dreams they'd all been sold.

Some were chasing passive income.
Some were building family plans.
Some just wanted one investment
They could leave in careful hands.

Nobody expected perfect.
Business always has its storms.
But everyone deserves an answer...
When reality transforms.

Bridge

Maybe nature changed the timeline.
Maybe setbacks all were real.
Maybe every single challenge
Changed the outcome of the deal.

If there's evidence...
Let's see it.
If there's answers...
Tell the truth.

Because trust is built on openness...
And openness builds proof.

Guitar Solo

(16 bars with soaring electric guitar over acoustic rhythm and dobro.)

Final Chorus

The dome was never really the dream...
It was everything behind it.
The people...
The vision...
The future intertwined in it.

I wasn't buying mountain sunsets.
Those were always there for free.
I invested in tomorrow...
And what tomorrow claimed to be.

A dome is just a structure.
It's never been the prize.
People invest in people first...
Long before they buy.

So here's to every dreamer...
Still searching for the truth.
Because every great investment...
Begins with trust...

And trust...
Should always deliver too.

Outro

The mountains never made the promise...
The forests never signed the deal.
The dream was always bigger than a dome...

It was believing...
Tomorrow...
Would be real.

They showed me pictures of the mountains,
Morning mist and open skies.
Luxury beneath the pine trees,
A different way to change my life.

They spoke about a growing market,
Families chasing memories.

And I believed what I could see.

Not just camping...
Not just weekends...
Not another place to stay.
They painted something so much bigger...
A business built the modern way.

Talkin' hedge fund moves but the paperwork's small

Virtual office playin' corporate games

Another shiny website, another smiling face,
Another promise telling you you're joining something great.
They say the future's waiting, just trust what they provide,
But every question that you ask gets pushed off to the side.

They call it copy trading, they say the risk is low,
Just follow all the signals and watch your money grow.
They've got the fancy graphics and dashboards shining bright,
But polished presentations don't always make things right.

Pre-Chorus

Before you chase tomorrow...
Ask who's holding all the cards.
Before you send your savings...
Make them show their work.

Chorus

One percent a day...
Sounds too good to be true.
If the money's really growing,
Why can't they prove it to you?

Recruit another friend...
Bring another one aboard.
When the questions start getting harder,
They just promise something more.

Don't gamble with your future...
Don't believe the perfect show.
The truth is worth far more...
Than profits they can't show.

Verse 2

The Zoom room fills with laughter,
The leaders take the stage.
Everybody's getting richer...
At least that's on the page.

Branches keep on opening,
Rewards are handed out.
Phones and trips and bonuses,
Designed to drown the doubt.

The Discord keeps on buzzing,
Withdrawals waiting still.
Support says, "Please be patient,"
While they climb another hill.

That's the story that they sell.
But every honest answer...
Should stand up just as well.

Don't let hope replace the facts.

Demand the honest truth.

Because fortunes built on promises...
Can disappear overnight.
And by the time you see it...
The dream is out of sight.

I was just a dreamer with a plan in my hand,
Talking 'bout tomorrow, making people understand.
Liquidity, blockchain, a future shining bright,
But every promise made another sleepless night.

They called me a leader,
Said I looked the part,
Nobody could see
What was breaking underneath my heart.

One more deal...
One more promise that would make it real...

Just to keep the dream alive.
Paying yesterday with tomorrow's sacrifice.

Never saw the warning signs.
Now all that's left are empty wallets...

Charity dinners underneath the city lights.
People trusted confidence,
The watch, the suit, the name.
Nobody stopped asking
Where the profits really came.

Still we kept believing
We could somehow carry on.

She said she'd walked through fire,
She knew what loss could do.
She spoke about redemption,
Like she'd lived the whole thing through.

She promised hope for broken hearts,
A safer road ahead.
But then another platform came,
With familiar words instead.

Pre-Chorus

I've heard this story way too many times,
Different faces, different logos, same old lines.

Chorus

You can't outrun a Ponzi,
You can't beat the crash.
There's no magic strategy
To grab your money fast.

If somebody tells you,
"Get in early, then get out,"
You're not escaping danger,
You're helping spread it round.

That's not investing.
That's not how wealth is made.
If your profit needs new victims,
You're standing in a scam parade.

Verse 2

Copy trading, trading signals,
Referral bonuses too.
The marketing looks polished,
But the questions still break through.

Who owns the company?
Who's accountable today?
Why hide behind the curtain,
When investors have to pay?

The blockchain leaves its footprints,
Every wallet tells a tale.
Promises sound wonderful,
But evidence prevails.

I've followed wallets,
I've followed every lead.

The questions still remain today.
Simple questions anyone should face.

Who's Ron?
Who's Robert?
Who's really running QVI?

If it's built on transparency,
Why is transparency so hard to see?

Final Chorus

I've seen BG.
I've seen PO.
I've watched these stories come and go.

New colours.
New branding.
The same old sales routine.

Before you trust another promise,
Look behind the screen.

Read the evidence.
Follow the chain.
Ask the questions once again.

Until the answers finally come,
The warning lights stay on.

And while we're still waiting
For Ron...
And Robert...
To answer the right of reply...

The blockchain keeps talking,
Even when the promoters don't.

]]> Verse 1

She said she'd walked through fire,
She knew what loss could do.
She spoke about redemption,
Like she'd lived the whole thing through.

She promised hope for broken hearts,
A safer road ahead.
But then another platform came,
With familiar words instead.

Pre-Chorus

I've heard this story way too many times,
Different faces, different logos, same old lines.

Chorus

You can't outrun a Ponzi,
You can't beat the crash.
There's no magic strategy
To grab your money fast.

If somebody tells you,
"Get in early, then get out,"
You're not escaping danger,
You're helping spread it round.

That's not investing.
That's not how wealth is made.
If your profit needs new victims,
You're standing in a scam parade.

Verse 2

Copy trading, trading signals,
Referral bonuses too.
The marketing looks polished,
But the questions still break through.

Who owns the company?
Who's accountable today?
Why hide behind the curtain,
When investors have to pay?

The blockchain leaves its footprints,
Every wallet tells a tale.
Promises sound wonderful,
But evidence prevails.

Pre-Chorus

I've followed wallets,
I've followed every lead.
Facts don't disappear,
Just because they don't fit the feed.

Chorus

You can't outrun a Ponzi,
You can't beat the crash.
There's no magic strategy
To grab your money fast.

If somebody tells you,
"Get in early, then get out,"
You're not escaping danger,
You're helping spread it round.

That's not investing.
That's not how wealth is made.
If your profit needs new victims,
You're standing in a scam parade.

Bridge

The hardship story may be real.
The pain may be sincere.
But personal testimony
Doesn't answer why we're here.

The questions still remain today.
Simple questions anyone should face.

Who's Ron?
Who's Robert?
Who's really running QVI?

If it's built on transparency,

Ha-ha...
Oh yeah...
Hey Christopher...
Thought the spotlight would last forever?
Now the whole world's watching...
Let's go!

[Verse 1]
Walked in flashing all that gold,
Thought the story would never get old.
Private jets and designer shoes,
Now it's breaking evening news.

Selling dreams from stage to stage,
Writing promises on every page.
Everybody bought the fantasy,
Now the truth's on national TV.

[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, hear those sirens calling,
Every domino is falling.
Thought the music would never stop,
Now the beat goes "knock, knock, knock."

[Chorus]
Every time that courtroom door swings wide,
I hear blue lights flashing in my mind.
Thought you wrote yourself a masterpiece...
Now you're reading guilty pleas.

Yeah, the gavel goes BANG!
Hear the courtroom sing.
Yeah, the handcuffs go CLINK!
Makes the whole room think.
Ooh-oh...
That's the sound they bring.

[Verse 2]
Crypto wallets leave a trail,
Blockchains always tell the tale.
Every transfer, every coin,
Now investigators join.

Funny how the heroes hide,
When the paperwork arrives.
Funny how the loudest crowd
Suddenly ain't talking loud.

[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, hear those whispers growing,
Everybody's nervous knowing.
One confession starts a chain,
Now they're wondering who's named.

[Chorus]
Every time that courtroom door swings wide,
I hear blue lights flashing in my mind.
Built an empire on borrowed time...
Now you're running out of time.

Yeah, the gavel goes BANG!
Hear the courtroom sing.
Yeah, the headlines roll,
Taking quite a toll.
Ooh-oh...
Who's the next to fold?

[Bridge]
No more penthouse celebrations,
Only legal conversations.
No more selfies, no champagne,
Just another prison train.

If the phones stop ringing now,
Who'll explain the why and how?
Every promise has a cost,
Every shortcut ends up lost.

Hey Christopher...
Remember all those standing ovations?
Now it's "All rise."

[Final Chorus]
Every time that the truth comes out,
You can hear the whole room shouting loud.
Justice doesn't care about the crowd,
Every blockchain sings out loud.

Yeah, the gavel goes BANG!
Hear the echoes ring.
Yeah, the truth rolls on,
Long after you're gone.

The wallets don't forget.
The victims won't forget.
The blockchain won't forget.

Ooh-oh...
Who's singing now?

Another shiny highway on a familiar road

The founders stay hidden behind the machine
The future looks bright on a marketing screen
Ads and rewards, lottery spins

They said welcome to the future, welcome to Web3
Smart contracts and freedom, that's what they sold to me
A single global queue, just take your place in line
Double your investment, everything will be fine

Ten turns into twenty, twenty turns to more
Every smiling presenter says they've found the secret door
They talk about transparency, liquidity and trust
But every road I followed led right back to us

[Pre-Chorus]
Who funds the profits?
Who pays the gain?
Why does every answer
Lead back to the same?

[Chorus]
It's an infinite loop of money coming in
That's the line they used while they pulled us in
New money feeds the old money, over and again
An infinite loop of money coming in

They call it freedom, they call it fate
But somebody always gets there too late
The music stops, the lights grow dim
An infinite loop of money coming in

[Verse 2]
Rubén's on the webinar, showing off the dream
Nikko talks of growth and building up the team
Jennifer is smiling while the numbers climb the screen
But where's the outside revenue behind the shiny scheme?

Three point three percent daily, that's what they proclaim
Fourteen levels deep and everybody wants the same
Recruit, duplicate, upgrade and repeat
The whole machine depends on fresh arrivals in the seat

Luxury villas and a second home
A better life, a better way
Just sign up today and you'll be okay

They showed me beaches, yachts and pools
Told me Warren Buffett wrote the rules
"Make money while you sleep," they said with a grin
But first recruit three people to get in

Pre-Chorus

I came for travel, sunshine and fun
But somehow ended up chasing everyone
I wanted holidays, cocktails and sea
Now I'm messaging strangers at half past three

Chorus

Three to profitability
That's the secret they sold to me
I booked a trip but spent the whole flight
Recruiting passengers left and right

Three to profitability
Living the dream supposedly
I came for travel across the globe
Now I'm pitching memberships from my hotel robe

Verse 2

The Ambassador lifestyle looked so sweet
Luxury resorts and a front-row seat
Rolex watches, bonus pools
Recognition events and leadership tools

But then I found the income sheet
The numbers made me leave my seat
Eighty-eight percent earned nothing at all
Yet everybody's standing ten feet tall

Pre-Chorus

Chairman, Executive Chairman desire
Ninety-six grand every month they say
If you can build an army along the way

Chorus

I met a guy named Isaac on Zoom
Talking so fast he could light up a room

Maybe some people close the deal

Would this survive if recruiting went home?

I was digging through the court files late one night,
Following the emails, trying to make it right,
Signed reports and promises stacked up in a pile,
Everybody smiling, everybody talking numbers for a while.

They said the money's working while you're sleeping in your bed,
Just trust the process, keep the doubts out of your head,
The payouts kept on coming, at least that's what they said,
But the deeper that I looked, the more questions filled my head.

PRE-CHORUS

The story sounded polished,
The confidence was high,
But every scheme I've ever seen
Starts with the same reply.

CHORUS

Six percent Mike,
That's what the message said,
"Put your money over here,"
That's the road investors tread.

Six percent Mike,
While the warning lights were dim,
Everybody loved the promise,
Till the music wasn't with him.

Six percent Mike,
Now the filings tell the tale,
What looked like easy money
Started looking awfully frail.

VERSE 2

Then I found the private messages buried in the claim,
Not a public presentation, not a marketing campaign,
Just a conversation where the numbers came alive,
Talking about returns that seemed too good to survive.

He said:

"I'll give you six percent per month on your money as well,
But we sell it for four."

Those are the words appearing in the filing today,
The kind of words investigators don't simply throw away.

Then another message followed, laying out the plan,

"I'm offering you two percent per month on other people's money,
As long as it remains in the fund."

Bring in a hundred thousand,
Two thousand every month,
The sort of arrangement
That makes you stop and hunt.

CHORUS

Six percent Mike,
That's what the messages show,
Promises of monthly income,
Watch the balances grow.

Six percent Mike,
Talking deals behind the scenes,
While investors kept believing
In the liquidity machine.

Six percent Mike,
Everybody wants to know,
How the money kept on moving,
And where it all would go.

BRIDGE

Then came the security story,
The safeguards and the shield,
The talk of cyber experts,
And protection in the field.

"Our head of cyber security
Worked with the FBI,"
That's the kind of reassurance
That makes suspicion pass you by.

Insurance.
Protection.
Multi-signature control.

The promises got bigger,
But who was checking the whole?

GUITAR SOLO

FINAL CHORUS

Six percent Mike,
Now the bankruptcy unfolds,
Court exhibits and conversations,
Stories finally told.

Six percent Mike,
The evidence keeps arriving in waves,
And every new filing raises
More questions than it saves.

Six percent Mike,
The investors want to know,
When the promises were made,
What was really running the show?

OUTRO

The filings keep on coming,
The record's growing every day,
The story isn't finished,
There's still a lot to say.

Because when private conversations
End up in a court file stack,
The biggest question isn't what was promised...

It's whether the money ever had a path back.

Bring in a hundred thousand,
Two thousand every month,
The sort of arrangement
That makes you stop and hunt.

CHORUS

Six percent Mike,
That's what the messages show,
Promises of monthly income,
Watch the balances grow.

Six percent Mike,
Talking deals behind the scenes,
While investors kept believing
In the liquidity machine.

Six percent Mike,
Everybody wants to know,
How the money kept on moving,
And where it all would go.

BRIDGE

Then came the security story,
The safeguards and the shield,
The talk of cyber experts,
And protection in the field.

"Our head of cyber security
Worked with the FBI,"
That's the kind of reassurance
That makes suspicion pass you by.

Insurance.
Protection.
Multi-signature control.

The promises got bigger,
But who was checking the whole?

GUITAR SOLO

FINAL CHORUS

Six percent Mike,
Now the bankruptcy unfolds,
Court exhibits and conversations,
Stories finally told.

Six percent Mike,
The evidence keeps arriving in waves,
And every new filing raises
More questions than it saves.

Six percent Mike,
The investors want to know,
When the promises were made,
What was really running the show?

OUTRO

The filings keep on coming,
The record's growing every day,
The story isn't finished,
There's still a lot to say.

Because when private conversations
End up in a court file stack,
The biggest question isn't what was promised...

It's whether the money ever had a path back.

[Verse 1]
A message hit my inbox late one night,
A member said, "Danny, something ain't right."
They put in two grand, then a couple hundred more,
Now they're standing outside a locked revolving door.

They were told about freedom, momentum and gain,
About building a future on a fast-moving train.
Every Zoom call promised a brighter tomorrow,
But today they're left with questions, frustration and sorrow.

[Pre-Chorus]
I followed the links, I followed the trail,
Watched the websites change and the stories derail.
The deeper I dug, the stranger it got,
Pieces disappearing while the system stayed hot.

[Chorus]
Team50K, where did the money go?
Everybody's smiling but nobody seems to know.
A board full of names and a promise to be free,
But the only thing growing is the mystery.

Team50K, can somebody explain?
Why the same old story keeps coming back again.
New logo, new website, same old play,
Another "new beginning" at the end of the day.

[Verse 2]
Michael's on the webinar selling the dream,
Yahsmine's right beside him talking up the team.
They say it's education, community and trust,
But if the numbers stop flowing, does the structure turn to dust?

Then I found the filing sitting plain as day,
A Texas non-profit standing in the way.
Three directors listed on the official page,
Yet one stays hidden while the others take the stage.

[Pre-Chorus]
The YouTube disappeared, TikTok too,
Funny how that happens when you're asking for the truth.
One click, one archive, another piece found,
A digital footprint buried in the ground.

[Chorus]
Team50K, where did the money go?
Everybody's smiling but nobody seems to know.

But the only thing growing is the mystery.

Team50K, can somebody explain?

New logo, new website, same old play,
Another "new beginning" at the end of the day.

[Bridge]
Crowdfunding yesterday, education today,
Different words but the footprints lead the same way.
Save, raise, earn — that's what they said,
Now the questions keep piling up inside my head.

Two thousand two hundred dollars gone from sight,
And nobody's answering despite the spotlight.
If everything's transparent, if everything's clear,
Why do the answers disappear year after year?

[Final Chorus]
Team50K, where did the money go?
That's the question that the members need to know.
A board full of names and a dream to believe,
But some are still waiting for what they were promised to receive.

Team50K, the story's not done,
The investigation's only just begun.
Because every time the evidence fades away,
Another clue appears to light the way.

[Outro]
The websites change, the branding shifts,
The promises come wrapped in different gifts.
But the truth has a habit of finding the light,
And I'll keep asking questions deep into the night.

(Folk Protest Ballad)

Verse 1

Rory rolled in selling crypto dreams,
StepChain shirts and wealth-machine schemes,
"Freedom's coming, just hold the line,"
Every promise sounded mighty fine.

HyperVerse rockets filled the sky,
People watched their savings fly,
Friends and family bought the pitch,
Till the whole thing left them in a ditch.

Chorus

Hey Rory Conacher, how many roads you choose?
How many broken promises before the public views?
One day you're the salesman, next day you're the cure,
But the people who got burned aren't buying that no more.

Verse 2

Now he's talking legal claims,
Blaming everyone but the names,
Says there's lawyers waiting in Dubai,
But nobody can verify.

Forms are open, fees are due,
Same old story dressed up new,
Victims asking, "Where's the proof?"
Only finding another roof.

Pre-Chorus

Because trust gets spent and trust gets lost,
And someone always pays the cost,
The hardest truth for all to see,
Sometimes the rescuer caused the injury.

Chorus

Hey Rory Conacher, what happened to the truth?
Another shiny rescue plan aimed at the wounded youth,
One more webinar, one more excuse,
That's the sound of the Rory Conacher blues.

Verse 3

Then Michele stood and took a stand,
Against her own flesh and blood's command,
Family ties can run so deep,
But conscience doesn't always sleep.

She gathered documents, dates and names,
Followed the money, followed the claims,
While others looked the other way,
She chose the harder road that day.

Verse 4

Then Danny de Hek came asking why,
While promoters hoped the story would die,
Digging through records, court filings too,
Separating fact from what wasn't true.

The louder the questions started to grow,
The harder it became to run the show,
Because evidence doesn't care who's loud,
And facts don't disappear in a crowd.

Bridge

See eventually the curtain falls,
Eventually somebody answers the calls,
You can rebrand stories, change the name,
But history remembers who played the game.

The victims weren't looking for another pitch,
They wanted answers to the mess in which
Their savings vanished, dreams were bruised,
Leaving families singing the Conacher blues.

Final Chorus

Hey Rory Conacher, the story isn't done,
The people still remember what happened to their funds,
And while the truth may travel slow,
It always catches up wherever you go.

So here's to those who stood their ground,
When silence was the safer sound,
To Michele, Danny, and all who refuse,
To stop exposing the Conacher blues.

Outro

No moonshot left.
No secret cure.
No miracle lawyer.
No easy door.

Just victims wanting truth at last,
And a record of the past.

That's the Rory Conacher blues.

Well Christopher rolled in with a billionaire grin
Talked about freedom while the walls closed in
“Private equity magic, generational wealth”
Meanwhile grandma’s crying talking to herself

It spread through barbeques and family chats
“Mate, this guy’s legit” — all built on that
Friends recruiting friends at the local café
Till the withdrawals stopped and the smiles faded away

People sold cars
People took loans
People trusted voices they’d already known
Communities fractured from the pressure and lies
All because somebody promised the skies

(Pre-Chorus)

Every red flag got painted gold
Every hard question never got told
They called it “vision”
They called it “faith”
But victims got punched right in the face

(Chorus)

Hey hey Goliath fell hard
Built a paper castle in a millionaire yard
CoffeeZilla lit the fuse online
Danny de Hek brought receipts every time

Hey hey the truth broke through
Channel 9 forgot what journalists do
While victims cried and promoters danced
Real reporting finally had a chance

(Verse 2)

There were pension funds and retirement dreams
Luxury dinners and marketing schemes
Photos online with the watches and cars
Convincing good people they’d finally gone far

Some worked overtime all their lives
Trying to provide for their kids and wives
Then one slick pitch and a trusted mate
Helped walk them right through the gate

Some lost marriages
Some lost sleep
Some lost money they were trying to keep
Single mums praying bills get paid
While promoters shouted “don’t be afraid!”

(New Verse)

Private jets and White House halls
Flexing like he conquered all
Photos smiling next to power and fame
While ordinary people carried the shame

Shaking hands just building clout
While families wondered how they’d get out
Kash Patel standing there in frame
Mike Johnson caught up in the game

Not saying they knew what was going down
But Chris sure loved parading round
Like proximity to power somehow meant truth
That’s how these schemes recruit

(Pre-Chorus)

Every red flag got painted gold
Every warning sign ignored or sold
They called it “legacy”
They called it “hope”
Till victims were left trying to cope

Hey hey Goliath fell hard
Built a paper castle in a millionaire yard
CoffeeZilla showed the world the game
Danny de Hek kept naming names

Hey hey the spell got broke
Turns out Lamborghinis don’t make you woke
And every “mentor” selling dreams
Ain’t always richer than they seem

(Bridge)

And Danny said:
“Hang on mate… this smells wrong.”
Started digging deep all night long
Court filings, whistleblowers, hidden trails
While promoters panicked deleting mails

Then CoffeeZilla hit the screen
Showed the world what journalism means
Not polished fluff or paid PR spin
But asking where the money’s been

And still today some names walk free
Co-conspirators hiding comfortably
While victims wonder every night
Will anyone else be held to account for this fight?

(New Verse)

Now the websites change and the stories shift
Some promoters act like memory’s drift
“Wasn’t me mate, I just shared a link”
Funny how fast these heroes shrink

Some still posting motivational quotes
While victims can barely stay afloat
No apologies
No real remorse
Just another rebrand changing course

“This is how these schemes survive…
Not through technology.
Not through genius investing.
But through trust.

A friend tells a friend.
A family member says it changed their life.
A leader says ‘don’t miss out.’

And before people realise what happened…
The money’s gone.
The friendships are broken.
And the people at the top move on to the next opportunity.”

No regulation, no audits… just a website

Crypto G pulled back the curtain, showed the truth online
“No real trades happening here”… just numbers by design
Checked the wallets on the chain — guess what we found?
No trading activity… just money moving round

[Pre-Chorus]
No liquidity, no real flow
Just deposits in a show
If it looks fake, it probably is…
But they say “don’t worry ‘bout this”

[Chorus]
I’m a copy paste NONILLIONAIRE (what a joke)
Living off a digital smoke
Fake exchange, fake trading too…
But they say “it’s all for you”

Send your passport, licence, life
Hope it doesn’t bring you strife
By the time the truth is known…
Everyone’s already gone

[Verse 3 – THE FIGHT BACK]
Danny de Hek and the Avengers hit the Zoom
Trying to warn the crowd before financial doom
Storming meetings, asking questions they won’t face
Getting muted, getting banned… kicked out the place

Twelve countries waving red flags, sounding alarms
But inside BonChat? “Everything’s calm”
Outside the walls it’s panic, people can’t withdraw
Inside it’s emojis like “nothing to see here at all”

[Bridge – DARK TURN]
No exchange, no trades, just smoke and a lie
No real profits, just money passing by
From the new to the old ‘til the music stops
And the whole damn system… just drops

Now your friends won’t answer, your name’s in the mess
You didn’t mean harm… but you helped sell the stress
And the ones at the top? Yeah they vanish real fast
Leaving everyone else… holding the past

[Final Chorus – BIG & EMOTIONAL]
I was a copy paste NONILLIONAIRE (in my head)
Chasing dreams that left me dead
Gave away more than just my cash…
Trust, identity… all in the crash

So if a stranger says “this is the way”
And all you do is copy and obey
Maybe stop… take a breath… and see…
It’s not wealth — it’s a liability

[Outro – Spoken]
No trading.
No exchange.
No transparency.

Just a system designed to take…
Until there’s nothing left.

[Verse 1]
They said “welcome to the future, this is how the rich get paid”
Download BonChat, trust the system, don’t ask how it’s made
Met a guy I’ve never seen, said “bro, this thing’s legit”
Next thing I’m depositing… yeah I fell for it

They said “watch the numbers grow, you’ll be doubling in no time”
But I can’t find the exchange… guess I’ll trust the online
Copy paste a little trade, three times every day
Feels less like investing… more like Simon Says

[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t ask questions, don’t you think
Just keep smiling, don’t you blink
If it looks weird, don’t complain…
Or you’ll get kicked out the game

[Chorus]
I’m a copy paste NONILLIONAIRE (can’t you see?)
Fake digits climbing endlessly
Screen says rich but I can’t withdraw…
Now I’m stuck inside the flaw

Give them your ID, your face, your name
Hope it doesn’t fuel a fraudster’s game
By the time you realise what’s gone…
BG Wealth’s already moved on

Lamborghinis, Rolls-Royces, Bentleys, private jets and waterfront mansions dominated the company's social media, reinforcing the image of a business generating extraordinary wealth. But as I dug deeper into court filings, bankruptcy records, federal forfeiture documents and hours of interviews, I realised the vehicles weren't simply expensive possessions. They were part of the story.

THE INVESTIGATION BEGINS

I followed the paper trail from the rise of Goliath Ventures through to the criminal prosecution of its founder, Christopher Delgado. Along the way, I reviewed federal court records, forfeiture filings, bankruptcy proceedings and the extraordinary interviews Delgado gave after his arrest.

One question kept coming back to me.

How much of the luxury lifestyle was real, and how much of it was simply designed to inspire confidence?

The answer wasn't found on Instagram.

It was hidden inside the court documents.

FOLLOWING THE MONEY

Federal forfeiture records revealed that some of the company's most recognisable vehicles generated surprisingly little value once they were sold.

One Lamborghini, promoted as a symbol of success, sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars, yet after the finance company was paid there was very little equity remaining for the forfeiture estate.

The same pattern appeared elsewhere.

Several luxury vehicles carried substantial finance obligations, while others produced no meaningful recovery at all.

The image projected to investors looked very different from the financial reality uncovered by investigators.

THE LUXURY BRAND

Christopher Delgado became the face of Goliath Ventures.

Across social media he was photographed beside exotic cars, exclusive events and influential business figures, creating the impression that extraordinary wealth was simply the natural result of the investment opportunity being offered.

During his lengthy WFTV interview after his arrest, Delgado openly discussed purchasing and customising many of these vehicles, never suggesting they would later become evidence in a federal criminal case.

Looking back, those interviews provide an extraordinary snapshot of a business that still appeared successful while investigators were already closing in.

WHAT THE DOCUMENTS REVEAL

As I worked through the forfeiture filings, it became clear that the vehicles told a story of their own.

One Rolls-Royce attracted multiple buyers before a missing set of factory wheels became an issue during the sale process.

Other vehicles were returned to finance companies because there was effectively no recoverable equity left after secured lenders exercised their legal rights.

The paperwork strips away the marketing and replaces it with something far more revealing.

Numbers.

Debts.

Ownership records.

Sale proceeds.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

This investigation isn't really about luxury cars.

It's about perception.

I've investigated enough investment schemes to recognise a familiar pattern. Before people are shown audited financial statements, they're shown success. Expensive vehicles become credibility. Mansions become trust. Private jets become proof.

But the questions that matter are rarely asked.

Who actually owns the asset?

Is it financed?

How much equity is really there?

Where did the money come from?

Those are the questions the federal records finally begin to answer.

Christopher Delgado has pleaded guilty and now awaits sentencing in one of the largest cryptocurrency fraud prosecutions in the United States. Yet the forfeiture process continues, with assets still being sold and court proceedings still unfolding.

As each vehicle disappears from the collection, another piece of the image disappears with it.

What's left behind is the evidence.

Following The MHT Recovery Story And The Questions That Still Need Answers PLAYGLOBAL Exposed? Following The MHT Recovery Story And The Questions That Still Need Answers I joined what I believed would be a recovery meeting for victims of the collapsed MHT Trading Bot. Instead, I found myself sitting through a polished Zoom presentation promoting PLAYGLOBAL Digital, a Luxembourg-based company claiming it could help victims recover their losses through an ambitious investment ecosystem. The more I listened, the more questions I had. When I asked for evidence to support their extraordinary claims, I was promised documentation. What followed instead was something I never expected.

THE INVESTIGATION BEGINS

An MHT victim invited me into a private Zoom meeting where several PLAYGLOBAL representatives outlined their vision for the future. They spoke about a US$100 billion Super Asset Fund, tokenised real-world assets, exclusive investment opportunities, technology transfers, healthcare, renewable energy, luxury brands and international expansion.

The presentation was polished and ambitious, but I wanted to see something much more important.

Evidence.

I requested documents supporting the claims being made, including proof of assets, regulatory documentation, corporate structure, ownership and details surrounding the proposed recovery efforts for MHT victims.

Marco assured me the information would be provided.

THE STORY TAKES AN UNEXPECTED TURN

Instead of receiving the documents I'd requested, I received correspondence from an Indian lawyer, Sandeep Roy, who explained that he had become involved after being approached by Daniel Baumgartner from PLAYGLOBAL.

According to Mr Roy, he had helped identify the individual allegedly responsible for the MHT Trading Bot scam inside India and was assisting with criminal complaints involving local police, enforcement agencies and potentially international authorities.

Naturally, I wanted to verify these claims.

I questioned whether I was even communicating with the genuine lawyer, requested independent verification of his identity and asked for supporting evidence relating to the legal proceedings.

To his credit, Mr Roy connected with me directly on LinkedIn, confirming that I was communicating with the real individual.

However, many of my original investigative questions still remain unanswered.

FOLLOWING THE EVIDENCE

I reviewed PLAYGLOBAL's website, company registration details and public corporate information.

The company certainly exists.

It is incorporated in Luxembourg and lists directors, advisory board members and numerous international ambitions.

But incorporation alone does not verify business claims.

The website makes exceptionally large statements about global investment funds, exclusive projects, tokenised assets, research centres, healthcare initiatives, Middle Eastern partnerships and billion-dollar developments.

Yet throughout the investigation I kept asking the same question.

Where is the independently verifiable evidence supporting these claims?

THE QUESTIONS CONTINUE

I also discovered that PLAYGLOBAL Digital's online presence appears remarkably recent despite references to a much longer history.

The organisation presents itself as having origins dating back to 2010, while much of the current digital footprint appears substantially newer.

That doesn't automatically indicate wrongdoing.

But when an organisation makes extraordinary claims, investigators should expect equally extraordinary supporting documentation.

So far, much of what I've requested has yet to be produced.

WHY THIS MATTERS

This investigation is not about attacking individuals.

It is about applying the same standards of due diligence that every investor should apply before trusting any organisation with their money.

Public claims deserve public scrutiny.

When companies promote large investment opportunities, recovery programmes or financial ecosystems, they should expect legitimate questions from journalists, victims and the wider public.

Those questions deserve documented answers.

Not legal threats.

THE STORY IS STILL UNFOLDING

This investigation is far from over.

I'm continuing to examine the documents, the corporate structure, the legal claims and the people involved while allowing everyone the opportunity to present evidence supporting their statements.

Whether PLAYGLOBAL ultimately proves every claim or whether further questions emerge will depend entirely on the evidence—not marketing presentations or promises made during Zoom meetings.

For now, the investigation continues.

The marketing is easy to find. The evidence is harder. That stayed with me throughout this investigation into Mining Race, Mining Grid, and ICONX. 

On the surface, everything looks polished: apps, conferences, Dubai showroom material, videos, media coverage, and promoters. But once I started digging, the question became simple: where is the proof that the mining operation can support the promoted rewards?

THE LEAD THAT STARTED THE INVESTIGATION

This investigation began after I reviewed Mining Race presentations, compensation plans, newsletters, event documents, promotional videos, screenshots, regulatory warnings, corporate registrations, and public claims made by promoters.

Mining Race was not being sold as ordinary Bitcoin mining. It was being promoted as an ecosystem involving mining products, racing rewards, referral commissions, leadership ranks, and team-building incentives.

WHAT MINING RACE CLAIMS TO BE

Mining Race presents itself as a way for ordinary people to participate in Bitcoin mining without buying expensive hardware or managing the technical side. Participants are introduced to Spot Licenses, Mining Cards, Mining Machines, Stable Mining, Cores, Sprint Races, Block Races, and the Mining Grid.

People are not simply buying hash power. They appear to be entering a layered structure involving subscriptions, mining-themed products, competitions, bonuses, referrals, and rank qualifications.

THE CORE RACING SYSTEM

One heavily promoted feature is Cores Racing. Company material claims a Core costs around $25 and provides 1 TH/s of Bitcoin mining power for one year.

But the sales pitch quickly moves beyond mining. Each Core is also entered into Sprint Races and Block Races, with Bitcoin rewards promoted to participants. The material also describes referral rewards when people beneath a participant win races, with more levels unlocked through additional Core purchases.

That is where the model begins looking less like traditional mining and more like a gamified reward system.

FOLLOWING THE MONEY

The ICONX compensation material shows referral commissions, network volume, rank advancement, matching bonuses, and activity generated by people beneath a participant.

That does not automatically prove wrongdoing, but it changes the risk. A normal Bitcoin mining business should be able to explain revenue through mining output, hashrate, pool performance, costs, production reports, and audited financial information.

Instead, much of the material I reviewed focused on how participants could earn more by expanding their network.

FOLLOWING THE PROMOTERS

As I dug deeper, I found myself looking closely at the people promoting Mining Race, Mining Grid, and ICONX.

Names appearing in public-facing material include Danyal Islam, Rado Mulej, Hind El Hadaj, Mario Kapun, Katinka Ehret, Omar Zouiten, Primoz Kotar, Marco Klumb, Damir Lisica, Jennifer Vukajc, Dustin Uecker, and others.

Being named does not automatically mean wrongdoing. But public promotion creates public accountability, especially when people are encouraging others to put money into a business opportunity.

THE AUSTRIAN WARNING

On 20 March 2026, Austria’s Financial Market Authority issued a warning concerning Miningrid L.L.C. and Mining Race. The regulator stated the company did not have the required authorisation to distribute certain products in Austria and classified those products as an Alternative Investment Fund under Austrian law.

That warning does not prove fraud, but it is a serious regulatory development that prospective participants should understand.

THE QUESTION THAT REMAINS

After reviewing the material, I found plenty of evidence of promotion: conferences, newsletters, compensation plans, leadership structures, media articles, and Dubai showroom material.

What I struggled to find was independently verifiable evidence of the actual mining operation. Where are the mining farms? Who operates them? What is the verified hashrate? Where are the independent audits?

During the latest Goliath Ventures bankruptcy hearing, the reality behind one of the largest schemes I have investigated became even clearer.

While thousands of investors continue searching for answers about where their money went, the court spent its time examining records, recovery efforts, missing information, and the enormous task facing those attempting to untangle what prosecutors allege was a $400 million fraud. What emerged was a sobering picture of the challenges ahead for victims hoping to recover funds.

INSIDE THE BANKRUPTCY COURTROOM

As proceedings got underway, the focus quickly turned to the practical realities of the bankruptcy process. Investors often imagine that once a company collapses and assets are frozen, a straightforward path exists to returning money. The hearing revealed something very different. Attorneys, trustees, and court-appointed professionals continue working through an immense volume of financial records, transactions, entities, and assets linked to Goliath Ventures.

The court heard discussions surrounding ongoing efforts to identify assets, preserve records, and determine the true financial position of the companies involved. Every bank account, transaction trail, property interest, and business relationship must be examined before any meaningful picture can emerge. The process is slow, methodical, and often frustrating for those waiting on the sidelines.

FOLLOWING THE MONEY

One of the recurring themes throughout the hearing was the challenge of reconstructing where investor funds ultimately ended up. While headlines often focus on luxury lifestyles, exotic vehicles, and expensive real estate, the legal process requires much more than identifying visible assets. Investigators must establish ownership, trace transfers, determine funding sources, and identify whether assets can legally be recovered for the benefit of creditors.

This is where bankruptcy proceedings become particularly important. The courtroom discussion reinforced that recovering money is not simply about locating assets. It is about establishing legal claims over those assets and determining how they fit into the broader recovery process. Every transaction matters. Every document matters. Every financial record matters.

THE RECORDS PROBLEM

A significant issue raised during the hearing involved records and documentation. In complex fraud cases, incomplete records can create major obstacles. The court heard updates relating to efforts to obtain information necessary to understand what happened behind the scenes and to properly account for investor funds.

For victims, this may sound like administrative detail, but it is one of the most important parts of the entire process. Without accurate records, recovery efforts become significantly more difficult. Bankruptcy professionals rely on documentation to establish claims, identify assets, evaluate transfers, and pursue potential recoveries. The hearing highlighted just how critical this work remains.

WHAT THIS MEANS FOR VICTIMS

Many investors continue asking the same question: how much money will be recovered and when will distributions occur? The uncomfortable reality is that nobody can answer that question yet.

The hearing made it clear that substantial work remains before the court can determine the full scope of recoverable assets and creditor claims. While progress is being made, the process is far from complete. Expectations must be grounded in reality rather than speculation circulating across social media, Telegram groups, or private chats.

For victims, patience remains one of the hardest requirements of the legal process. The court's job is not to move quickly. Its job is to move accurately.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Beyond the legal arguments and procedural updates, the hearing served as another reminder of the human cost behind Goliath Ventures. Every document being reviewed represents somebody's retirement fund, life savings, investment account, or financial future. Behind every claim number is a real person trying to understand how this happened and whether any recovery is possible.

The courtroom discussion demonstrated that professionals are continuing to pursue answers, but it also reinforced the scale of the challenge. Untangling years of financial activity, identifying assets, examining transfers, and building an accurate record takes time.

For now, the bankruptcy court remains focused on evidence, records, and recovery efforts. The questions victims care about most are still being investigated, and the answers will emerge through the legal process rather than through rumours, promises, or wishful thinking.

]]> Courtrooms are designed to deal in facts, evidence, and records. During the latest Goliath Ventures bankruptcy hearing, the reality behind one of the largest schemes I have investigated became even clearer.

While thousands of investors continue searching for answers about where their money went, the court spent its time examining records, recovery efforts, missing information, and the enormous task facing those attempting to untangle what prosecutors allege was a $400 million fraud. What emerged was a sobering picture of the challenges ahead for victims hoping to recover funds.

INSIDE THE BANKRUPTCY COURTROOM

As proceedings got underway, the focus quickly turned to the practical realities of the bankruptcy process. Investors often imagine that once a company collapses and assets are frozen, a straightforward path exists to returning money. The hearing revealed something very different. Attorneys, trustees, and court-appointed professionals continue working through an immense volume of financial records, transactions, entities, and assets linked to Goliath Ventures.

The court heard discussions surrounding ongoing efforts to identify assets, preserve records, and determine the true financial position of the companies involved. Every bank account, transaction trail, property interest, and business relationship must be examined before any meaningful picture can emerge. The process is slow, methodical, and often frustrating for those waiting on the sidelines.

FOLLOWING THE MONEY

One of the recurring themes throughout the hearing was the challenge of reconstructing where investor funds ultimately ended up. While headlines often focus on luxury lifestyles, exotic vehicles, and expensive real estate, the legal process requires much more than identifying visible assets. Investigators must establish ownership, trace transfers, determine funding sources, and identify whether assets can legally be recovered for the benefit of creditors.

This is where bankruptcy proceedings become particularly important. The courtroom discussion reinforced that recovering money is not simply about locating assets. It is about establishing legal claims over those assets and determining how they fit into the broader recovery process. Every transaction matters. Every document matters. Every financial record matters.

THE RECORDS PROBLEM

A significant issue raised during the hearing involved records and documentation. In complex fraud cases, incomplete records can create major obstacles. The court heard updates relating to efforts to obtain information necessary to understand what happened behind the scenes and to properly account for investor funds.

For victims, this may sound like administrative detail, but it is one of the most important parts of the entire process. Without accurate records, recovery efforts become significantly more difficult. Bankruptcy professionals rely on documentation to establish claims, identify assets, evaluate transfers, and pursue potential recoveries. The hearing highlighted just how critical this work remains.

Nx1 DePIN Rewards, Locked Tokens, MLM Recruitment & Craig Trewavis Questions NodeLink Scam Or Legit? Nx1 DePIN Rewards, Locked Tokens, MLM Recruitment & Craig Trewavis Questions I’m going live to walk through the NodeLink investigation we’ve just published, and this has moved far beyond a simple question about whether a small NX1 device can really turn unused home internet into “decentralised infrastructure.” After digging through the website, Zoom presentations, hidden documents, compensation material, token mechanics, and promoter behaviour, the same familiar pattern keeps appearing: futuristic language on the surface, but recruitment incentives, locked tokens, and unanswered revenue questions underneath.

HOW THIS STARTED

This began when I entered a NodeLink Zoom meeting being run by Craig Trewavis. I waited nearly 30 minutes before I was able to ask basic questions about the company, the founders, the revenue model, the hardware, and how the rewards are actually funded.

Instead of clear answers, the meeting kept redirecting people toward another presentation later that night. That raised concerns because legitimate infrastructure companies should be able to explain their business model without pushing people through recruitment-style meetings.

THE STORY NODELINK IS SELLING

NodeLink presents itself as a DePIN project where households supposedly help build a people-powered infrastructure network by plugging an NX1 device into their internet connection. The company talks about AI infrastructure, VPN services, Bitcoin hash discovery, digital wallets, encrypted routing, storage, and future services.

That sounds impressive.

But the real question is whether independently verifiable external revenue supports the reward structure.

Who are the paying customers? Where are the audited contracts? What infrastructure is actually being used commercially?

Marketing language is not evidence.

THE COMPENSATION PDF CHANGES THE PICTURE

The most important document we found is the NodeLink Compensation System PDF, which is embedded inside the full investigation.

That document moves the discussion away from hype and into mechanics. It describes Participation Units, daily rewards, direct bonuses, PowerUp bonuses, matching bonuses, rank structures, downline-style growth, and reward increases tied to sponsoring active participants.

That is where NodeLink starts looking less like a simple infrastructure project and more like MLM wrapped in decentralisation language.

The biggest red flag is that higher reward tiers appear linked to recruiting five active participants. Infrastructure performance should depend on uptime, bandwidth, customer usage, compute demand, and verified service revenue — not whether someone builds a team underneath them.

LOCKED TOKENS AND DAILY REWARDS

NodeLink uses internal token mechanics involving NLK, USDN, USDN-W, locked balances, vesting periods, and delayed release systems. The company says rewards are not guaranteed, but at the same time the ecosystem promotes daily reward projections, participation incentives, and long-term earning potential.

That contradiction matters.

Many crypto schemes preserve the appearance of stability by controlling liquidity. If participants cannot freely access balances, or if rewards are locked for years, it becomes harder to understand the true financial condition of the platform.

WHY PEOPLE BELIEVE IT

The emotional power of NodeLink comes from the story. It tells people they are helping build infrastructure that corporations and governments cannot control. It gives ordinary people the feeling that they are early and positioned before the next big technology wave.

I have seen this pattern many times before.

The technology narrative becomes the shield around the compensation structure. People stop asking where the money comes from and start focusing on the dream of being early.

WHAT WE WILL COVER LIVE

In this livestream, I’ll walk through the blog, the compensation structure, the locked-token concerns, the daily reward model, and the claims that still need independent verification.

I am not claiming NodeLink is definitively a scam. But the structure raises serious questions promoters should answer before ordinary people put money or trust into it.

In this livestream, I’ll be reacting to the full CoffeeZilla documentary and breaking down what really happened behind the scenes. This wasn’t just a video about a court case. This was months of investigation, whistleblowers, lawsuits, blockchain tracing, victims coming forward, and a story that almost never got told.

THE STORY BEFORE THE HEADLINES

I started investigating Goliath Ventures Inc on 1 September 2025, long before most people had ever heard the name. What stood out from the beginning was the way the operation moved quietly through trusted personal networks rather than public advertising.

People were not being sold a random crypto deal by strangers. They were being introduced by people they trusted. That is what made it so dangerous.

The pitch was wrapped in private equity language, luxury branding, private jets, Rolls-Royces, celebrity associations, political connections, and claims of serious financial credibility. But underneath the image, the numbers did not make sense.

THE RETURNS DID NOT ADD UP

Goliath Ventures allegedly claimed investor funds were being used in liquidity pools and crypto trading strategies capable of producing extraordinary monthly returns.

CoffeeZilla independently tested those claims by tracing wallet flows and following the money. What he found was not meaningful trading activity supporting those returns.

Instead, the evidence allegedly showed new investor money being used to pay earlier investors — the classic structure prosecutors now allege formed part of a massive Ponzi scheme.

That moment in the documentary was surreal for me because it independently confirmed concerns we had been chasing for months.

RETIREMENT MONEY & FALSE SECURITY

One of the most disturbing parts of this investigation is the retirement money angle.

CoffeeZilla’s documentary explores the connection between Goliath Ventures, Blackblock, My Wealth MD, audit claims, and investors allegedly being reassured that funds were backed and secure.

Many people believed the company had already been vetted because of the branding, the events, the paperwork, and the people surrounding it.

But when withdrawals started freezing, the illusion began to collapse.

Behind the scenes, victims were frightened, embarrassed, and unsure who to trust.

THE LAWSUIT & THE PRESSURE

After I started publicly raising concerns, I was sued in the United States.

That lawsuit created enormous pressure. Not just on me, but on victims, insiders, journalists, and anyone thinking about speaking publicly.

CoffeeZilla explains in his documentary how close he came to walking away from the story because of legal risk. That part hit me hard because it shows the reality of independent journalism.

The threats are real.
The lawsuits are real.
The financial pressure is real.
The emotional toll is real.

This is why so many stories do not get told until a court filing makes them safe to repeat.

But real investigative journalism starts before the paperwork arrives.

THE CHARGES

Before CoffeeZilla released the documentary publicly, federal authorities charged Christopher Delgado in connection with what prosecutors allege was a $328 million Ponzi scheme.

Shortly after that, the lawsuit against me was dropped.

On the surface, you’ve got a former fire chief—someone people trusted, someone who built a reputation around leadership and service. But once you start following the timeline, a second narrative begins to emerge, one that links him to Goliath Ventures Inc and a growing list of serious questions that can’t be ignored.

POLL

Firefighter to finance… does this story pass the smell test or something burning?

Smells like a Ponzi BBQ (47%)
Something’s definitely burning (27%)
Just smoke, no fire (13%)
I need more evidence (13%)

THE TRUST THAT BUILT IT

This story doesn’t begin with contracts or companies. It begins with trust. Davis wasn’t just a business associate—he was someone who had already built credibility within a family long before any deal was made. He showed up when it mattered, and that kind of presence carries weight. It’s the sort of trust that removes doubt before questions are even asked.

That trust eventually turned into business. Choice Press LLC was formed, structured on paper as a partnership with defined ownership and responsibilities. It looked legitimate. It looked like something that could grow. But as I’ve seen time and time again, what’s written down and what’s actually happening can be two very different things.

THE GOLIATH CONNECTION

Things changed in late 2025 when reporting identified Davis as Director of Administration at Goliath Ventures Inc. Around the same time, Goliath was attracting increasing scrutiny. Then came the turning point—federal prosecutors alleging a $328 million Ponzi scheme, followed by the arrest of its CEO in February 2026 on charges of wire fraud and money laundering.

When questions were raised directly, the response was dismissive. “You’re good dude. It’s all bs.” At the same time, there were efforts to get ahead of the story publicly. That combination matters. Because when concerns are brushed aside privately while narratives are managed publicly, it tells you something about how the situation is being handled.

THE CRACKS UNDER PRESSURE

Behind the scenes, the cracks were already forming. There were discussions about financial exposure tied to Goliath, including losses linked to overseas investments. More importantly, there were acknowledgements that the company had grown rapidly without the infrastructure to support investor withdrawals.

That’s a critical detail. Because while those concerns were being discussed internally, the external message remained steady. Confidence was maintained, messaging stayed polished, and nothing publicly reflected the instability being described behind closed doors.

THE MOMENT THAT RAISES QUESTIONS

One moment stands out. During a sales call, a financially vulnerable individual was encouraged to consider leveraging home equity to fund services. That’s not theory—that’s a real interaction. And it raises serious questions about judgement and boundaries.

When you combine that with involvement in a high-risk investment structure, it becomes harder to dismiss as an isolated incident. It starts to look like part of a broader pattern.

THE COLLAPSE BECOMES REAL

Once federal authorities stepped in, everything changed. The arrest shifted this from speculation to something far more concrete. Clients began distancing themselves. Relationships broke down. What had been internal concerns quickly turned into external consequences.

Inside Choice Press, that pressure led to conflict. Payments were disputed. Legal demands were made. Control over the business became contested. What started as a partnership began to unravel.

Just keep smiling, don’t you blink
If it looks weird, don’t complain…
Or you’ll get kicked out the game

They said “DSJ Exchange is where the magic’s made”
But some guy built the whole thing in like one day
Out in Hawaii, coding dreams with no oversight
No regulation, no audits… just a website

Crypto G pulled back the curtain, showed the truth online
“No real trades happening here”… just numbers by design
Checked the wallets on the chain — guess what we found?
No trading activity… just money moving round

No liquidity, no real flow
Just deposits in a show
If it looks fake, it probably is…
But they say “don’t worry ‘bout this”

[Chorus]
I’m a copy paste NONILLIONAIRE (what a joke)
Living off a digital smoke
Fake exchange, fake trading too…
But they say “it’s all for you”

Send your passport, licence, life
Hope it doesn’t bring you strife
By the time the truth is known…
Everyone’s already gone

[Verse 3 – THE FIGHT BACK]
Danny de Hek and the Avengers hit the Zoom
Trying to warn the crowd before financial doom
Storming meetings, asking questions they won’t face
Getting muted, getting banned… kicked out the place

Twelve countries waving red flags, sounding alarms
But inside BonChat? “Everything’s calm”
Outside the walls it’s panic, people can’t withdraw
Inside it’s emojis like “nothing to see here at all”

[Bridge – DARK TURN]
No exchange, no trades, just smoke and a lie
No real profits, just money passing by
From the new to the old ‘til the music stops
And the whole damn system… just drops

Now your friends won’t answer, your name’s in the mess
You didn’t mean harm… but you helped sell the stress
And the ones at the top? Yeah they vanish real fast
Leaving everyone else… holding the past

[Final Chorus – BIG & EMOTIONAL]
I was a copy paste NONILLIONAIRE (in my head)
Chasing dreams that left me dead
Gave away more than just my cash…
Trust, identity… all in the crash

So if a stranger says “this is the way”
And all you do is copy and obey
Maybe stop… take a breath… and see…
It’s not wealth — it’s a liability

[Outro – Spoken]
No trading.
No exchange.
No transparency.

Just a system designed to take…
Until there’s nothing left.

No regulation, no audits… just a website

Crypto G pulled back the curtain, showed the truth online
“No real trades happening here”… just numbers by design
Checked the wallets on the chain — guess what we found?
No trading activity… just money moving round

[Pre-Chorus]
No liquidity, no real flow
Just deposits in a show
If it looks fake, it probably is…
But they say “don’t worry ‘bout this”

[Chorus]
I’m a copy paste NONILLIONAIRE (what a joke)
Living off a digital smoke
Fake exchange, fake trading too…
But they say “it’s all for you”

Send your passport, licence, life
Hope it doesn’t bring you strife
By the time the truth is known…
Everyone’s already gone

[Verse 3 – THE FIGHT BACK]
Danny de Hek and the Avengers hit the Zoom
Trying to warn the crowd before financial doom
Storming meetings, asking questions they won’t face
Getting muted, getting banned… kicked out the place

Twelve countries waving red flags, sounding alarms
But inside BonChat? “Everything’s calm”
Outside the walls it’s panic, people can’t withdraw
Inside it’s emojis like “nothing to see here at all”

[Bridge – DARK TURN]
No exchange, no trades, just smoke and a lie
No real profits, just money passing by
From the new to the old ‘til the music stops
And the whole damn system… just drops

Now your friends won’t answer, your name’s in the mess
You didn’t mean harm… but you helped sell the stress
And the ones at the top? Yeah they vanish real fast
Leaving everyone else… holding the past

[Final Chorus – BIG & EMOTIONAL]
I was a copy paste NONILLIONAIRE (in my head)
Chasing dreams that left me dead
Gave away more than just my cash…
Trust, identity… all in the crash

So if a stranger says “this is the way”
And all you do is copy and obey
Maybe stop… take a breath… and see…
It’s not wealth — it’s a liability

[Outro – Spoken]
No trading.
No exchange.
No transparency.

Just a system designed to take…
Until there’s nothing left.

This wasn’t a presentation, and it wasn’t a pitch. It was a structured legal process, and for the first time, the narrative investors were given is being replaced with something far more grounded — evidence.

THE HEARING BEGINS

From the outset, the tone was controlled and procedural. There were no promises, no timelines, and no attempt to create false confidence. The receiver made it clear that the majority of creditors are being treated as victims, and the focus is now on identifying, securing, and recovering assets where possible.

Earlier that day, the 341 meeting of creditors had taken place with over 100 participants dialing in. However, it quickly ran into logistical issues, including background noise and speakerphone problems, making it difficult to proceed effectively. The meeting was continued and rescheduled to June 26, 2026, which reflects both the scale of the case and the challenges of managing a large group of affected investors.

FROM STORY TO EVIDENCE

For a long time, Goliath Ventures operated on confidence, presentation, and controlled messaging. Investors were shown activity and returns that appeared consistent. But what became clear during this hearing is that movement alone does not prove legitimacy.

The court referenced the mechanics of a Ponzi-style structure, where new investor funds are used to pay earlier investors. That illusion sustains the system until it collapses. Now that the case is under legal scrutiny, every claim is being tested, every transaction is being questioned, and every dollar is being tracked.

KEY DEVELOPMENTS FROM THE HEARING

A coordination agreement has been reached with the U.S. Attorney’s Office. The government will continue seizing and liquidating assets, including real estate, luxury vehicles, jewellery, and cryptocurrency, and will seek to transfer those proceeds into the bankruptcy estate for distribution.

The deadline to file a proof of claim has been extended from May 26, 2026, to September 30, 2026, giving creditors additional time as the full list of victims is still being compiled.

A creditors’ committee has been appointed, made up of seven of the largest creditors, who will appoint legal counsel to represent unsecured creditors collectively.

The receiver, Michael Budwick, has begun issuing subpoenas and progressing forensic work, with plans to engage specialist accountants. A website and communication channels, including [goliathventuresreceiver@gmail.com](mailto:goliathventuresreceiver@gmail.com), are being established.

WHAT WAS FOUND — AND WHAT WASN’T

When the receiver attended the Goliath office, it was effectively empty. Records had been removed, and there was no meaningful operational presence. At the same time, authorities confirmed that assets have been seized, including real estate and vehicles.

There is evidence of crypto activity, but no confirmed figures on what remains or what can be recovered at this stage. Claims about large crypto holdings remain unverified.

THE QUESTIONS FROM VICTIMS

Victims were given the opportunity to ask questions, and what came through was a mix of urgency and uncertainty. People asked when arrests would happen, how much money had been recovered, and when they might receive funds.

There were also questions about legal representation, and the court clarified that a creditors’ committee will represent the group. Clawbacks were raised as a possibility but remain a future phase of the case.

*THE WARNING*

On September 21, 2025, I sent a formal email to the Orlando Economic Partnership. It was detailed, direct, and backed by evidence. I outlined concerns that Goliath Ventures was operating as a crypto-based Ponzi scheme — fixed returns, no verifiable trading, and growing concern from victims and whistleblowers.

I warned them clearly: by listing Goliath as a “Top Investor,” they were lending credibility to something that didn’t add up. I recommended they remove the listing and carry out proper due diligence.

The email was received.

There was no response.

*THE CREDIBILITY SIGNAL*

At the time, Goliath Ventures continued to appear on their website as a trusted contributor. That kind of association matters. It signals legitimacy to outsiders — especially investors who assume someone has done the checks.

What wasn’t visible then is now confirmed.

Goliath Ventures paid $200,000 for a top-tier membership. That wasn’t organic credibility. It was purchased positioning — visibility, association, and perceived trust.

That’s how these operations often work. When the business model doesn’t stand up, money gets redirected into external validation.

*THE STORY BREAKS*

Months later, the situation reached the media. A report confirmed the Orlando Economic Partnership had received my warning — and failed to act.

The article quoted my email and confirmed the timeline. It also confirmed something just as important: the warning wasn’t hidden. It was sent to leadership and copied widely across the organisation.

And then came silence.

By the time this became public, the damage had already been done. The endorsement remained in place during the period when the scheme was still attracting participants.

*THE COURT STEPS IN*

The next phase doesn’t come from marketing or media. It comes from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court.

In the filing, the Receiver states he “quickly identified meaningful evidence that a Ponzi scheme was perpetrated” through Goliath Ventures.

That’s not speculation. That’s a legal finding based on financial investigation.

At that point, the focus shifts from what was promised to what actually happened to the money.

*FOLLOWING THE MONEY*

One key transaction stands out — a $200,000 payment to the Orlando Economic Partnership.

Not for investment. Not for trading.

For membership.

The filing makes it clear there was no meaningful interaction beyond that transfer. It wasn’t an operational relationship. It was a one-way transaction tied to visibility.

Money out — credibility in.

*THE LEGAL FRAMEWORK*

Once a Ponzi structure is identified, recovery begins.

Under the Ponzi presumption, transfers made during the scheme can be challenged. The Receiver can attempt to claw back funds, even from recipients who weren’t directly involved.

The likely defence is good faith — that the payment was accepted without knowledge of wrongdoing.

But there’s a counterpoint.

A payment for visibility may not represent real value — especially when viewed against creditor losses.

That’s where the tension sits.

What started as a claim of hope for victims quickly began to look like something far more familiar — a structure built on urgency, pressure, and very little proof.

THE EMAIL THAT SET THIS IN MOTION

On the 18th of March, Rory sent out an email telling people to act immediately. The language wasn’t measured or professional — it was urgent. “ACTION REQUIRED NOW,” he said, warning recipients they were already “two weeks behind.” He pushed them into WhatsApp and Telegram groups and made it clear that if they didn’t onboard, they would be excluded.

That’s not how legal proceedings work.

Real cases don’t rely on fear of missing out. They don’t rush people into decisions. They certainly don’t operate through messaging groups as the primary channel of communication.

WHAT’S ACTUALLY MISSING

Strip away the urgency and look at what’s left.

There is no case number. No filed court documents. No signed legal mandate. No named UAE advocate with the right to appear in court.

These are not minor details — they are the foundation of any real legal action.

Without them, there is no evidence that a lawsuit even exists.

And yet people are being told to trust the process before that process has been proven.

WE ASKED THE QUESTIONS

Because Rory provided the name of the lawyer and the address, we verified it.

We sent a formal enquiry asking straightforward questions — who is the registered entity, what licence are they operating under, what court is the case filed in, and what is the case number?

The response didn’t answer those questions.

Instead, we were told the case was genuine, but that no further details would be provided due to confidentiality.

So the situation becomes very simple.

You’re being asked to trust something that won’t provide basic verification.

THE PHONE CALL

A contact in Abu Dhabi then called the number provided and attempted to arrange a meeting as a potential paying client.

The meeting was refused.

If this is a legitimate legal recovery effort, why refuse a client?

Why operate through a single mobile number with no visible office structure?

That’s not how firms handling international litigation behave.

THE ADDRESS CHECK

We then looked at the physical location — Masdar City.

The directory board lists multiple companies operating in that building. There was no visible listing for PSP Legal.

No signage. No clear presence.

On its own, that might be explainable. But combined with everything else, it adds to a growing list of concerns.

THE LEGAL REALITY

This is where the narrative breaks down completely.

The UAE does not operate class action lawsuits in the way this is being presented.

There is no system where thousands of victims join a group and are collectively represented through a single process.

Legal action in the UAE is individual. Each claimant must be identified. Each must sign a notarised Power of Attorney. And most importantly, the case must be handled by a licensed UAE advocate with rights of audience.

No such advocate has been named.

Without one, there is no case.

The victim’s side of the conversation has been redacted for privacy, but the voice you hear reveals exactly how the narrative was being controlled behind the scenes. In these calls, you can hear how promoters attempt to calm investors, dismiss criminal allegations, and — incredibly — begin positioning new opportunities while people are still trying to understand what has happened to their money.

THE MOMENT EVERYTHING CHANGED

When news broke that criminal charges had been filed in connection with Goliath Ventures, panic spread quickly. Investors across the United States and Canada were suddenly faced with a reality they hadn’t been prepared for.

Phone calls started happening almost immediately.

People weren’t looking for opportunity anymore — they were looking for answers.

And in that moment, certain voices stepped in to provide those answers.

THE DAMAGE CONTROL

What you’re hearing in these recordings is not confusion. It’s control.

You’ll hear repeated claims that the case “doesn’t make sense,” backed up by references to supposed insiders — a retired FBI agent, a former police officer, and individuals linked to high-level finance. These names and roles are introduced not as verifiable sources, but as authority figures designed to calm fear and create doubt.

This is a familiar tactic.

When belief starts to crack, you replace facts with confidence.

The message is simple: don’t trust what you’re reading, trust what you’re being told.

THE $1 BILLION CLAIM

As the calls continue, the narrative escalates.

You’ll hear claims that individuals have “seen the wallets,” that hundreds of millions of dollars are still sitting in crypto, and that the money is effectively untouched. Figures are repeated — $250 million, $300 million, even approaching $1 billion — reinforced through multiple voices to create the illusion of verification.

But listen carefully.

At no point is any actual evidence provided.

No wallet addresses.
No transaction records.
No proof.

Just certainty.

THE STORY THAT SHIFTS THE NARRATIVE

At one point, the conversation turns deeply personal.

A story is introduced involving funds that came from a man suffering from dementia, moved under a power of attorney shortly before his death and placed into the investment. This is presented as proof that the speaker is also a victim — someone who has suffered loss alongside everyone else.

But when you step back and look at it clearly, the framing raises a far more serious question.

Is this loss… or is it exploitation?

THE REALITY EMERGES

Since these recordings were made, the situation has moved out of speculation and into documented fact.

Goliath Ventures Inc has now filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

And the numbers tell a very different story from what you’re hearing in these calls.

Estimated assets are listed between $1 million and $10 million.
Estimated liabilities range from $100 million to $500 million.

That is not a company sitting on $1 billion in crypto.

That is a company in financial collapse.

After months of warnings, denials, and people holding onto hope, reality finally caught up. But what most victims don’t realise yet is this: bankruptcy doesn’t close the door… it shifts the battlefield.

THE SCAM BEGINS

It started like so many of these operations do — polished presentations, confident voices, and a story that made just enough sense to silence doubt. Goliath Ventures positioned itself as a sophisticated crypto liquidity operation, promising consistency in a volatile market.

Investors were told their money was working, generating returns through strategy and expertise. The messaging was controlled, the confidence was high, and the environment was designed to feel legitimate.

But behind that story, something very different was happening.

Money was flowing in — fast. And instead of being deployed into real trading activity, investigators allege it was being redirected. Luxury cars, watches, properties, and lifestyle spending began to replace the narrative of disciplined investment.

What was sold as an opportunity was now being described as a $328 million Ponzi scheme.

THE COLLAPSE

February 24, 2026 — Christopher Alexander Delgado is arrested on federal charges including wire fraud and money laundering. That moment broke the illusion.

Within days, legal action followed. On February 25, a civil case triggered an emergency push for a receiver to take control. By March 3, Michael S. Budwick was appointed by the court to step in and manage what remained of Goliath Ventures.

Control had shifted.

Then came the escalation. Multiple lawsuits. Allegations against major institutions. Claims that warning signs were ignored. By mid-March, the situation had turned into full-scale legal warfare, with victims trying to understand what was left and whether recovery was even possible.

THE BANKRUPTCY FILING

March 16, 2026 — the receiver files Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the Southern District of Florida.

And this is where confusion starts.

For many, “bankruptcy” sounds like the end — like everything is gone. But that’s not what’s happening here.

This wasn’t a move by Delgado. It wasn’t the company trying to escape. This was a strategic decision made by the court-appointed receiver to bring order to chaos.

Chapter 11 pauses the immediate legal rush against Goliath Ventures itself. It stops the scramble. It creates one structured process instead of multiple competing claims.

But it does not protect everyone involved.

THE NETWORK BEHIND IT

Goliath Ventures is now contained within bankruptcy proceedings. But the wider network — the promoters, partners, and enablers — sit outside that protection.

These are the individuals who helped expand the reach, reinforce the narrative, and bring others into the system.

And as history has shown time and time again, when the company falls, attention doesn’t stop — it spreads.

Because the real question becomes: who else played a role?

WHAT HAPPENS NOW

The chaos is being replaced with structure.

Assets will be traced. Claims will be filed. Investigations will continue. And the legal system will begin working through what remains.

For those affected, this is not the time to disengage.

Because while Goliath Ventures is now under court control, the broader story is still unfolding — and the outcome depends on what happens from here.

This isn’t the end.

It’s the point where accountability begins.

]]> The moment I saw the Chapter 11 filing hit the system, I knew this wasn’t the end of the Goliath story — it was the point where everything changed. After months of warnings, denials, and people holding onto hope, reality finally caught up. But what most victims don’t realise yet is this: bankruptcy doesn’t close the door… it shifts the battlefield.

THE SCAM BEGINS

It started like so many of these operations do — polished presentations, confident voices, and a story that made just enough sense to silence doubt. Goliath Ventures positioned itself as a sophisticated crypto liquidity operation, promising consistency in a volatile market.

Investors were told their money was working, generating returns through strategy and expertise. The messaging was controlled, the confidence was high, and the environment was designed to feel legitimate.

But behind that story, something very different was happening.

Money was flowing in — fast. And instead of being deployed into real trading activity, investigators allege it was being redirected. Luxury cars, watches, properties, and lifestyle spending began to replace the narrative of disciplined investment.

What was sold as an opportunity was now being described as a $328 million Ponzi scheme.

THE COLLAPSE

February 24, 2026 — Christopher Alexander Delgado is arrested on federal charges including wire fraud and money laundering. That moment broke the illusion.

Within days, legal action followed. On February 25, a civil case triggered an emergency push for a receiver to take control. By March 3, Michael S. Budwick was appointed by the court to step in and manage what remained of Goliath Ventures.

Control had shifted.

Then came the escalation. Multiple lawsuits. Allegations against major institutions. Claims that warning signs were ignored. By mid-March, the situation had turned into full-scale legal warfare, with victims trying to understand what was left and whether recovery was even possible.

THE BANKRUPTCY FILING

March 16, 2026 — the receiver files Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the Southern District of Florida.

And this is where confusion starts.

For many, “bankruptcy” sounds like the end — like everything is gone. But that’s not what’s happening here.

This is not just a testimonial — it’s a live example of how belief is built and used to pull others in. It shows how quickly confidence can replace caution, and how easily people move from observing something to actively promoting it without fully understanding what they are part of.

THE TESTIMONIAL

Mark and Kim Brown sit side by side, delivering what appears to be a genuine testimonial about BG Wealth Sharing. They explain how they were sceptical, how they took their time, and how they started with a small amount of money. It’s framed to make the viewer feel safe. It suggests caution, patience, and control.

But when you focus on what they’re actually describing, the story starts to shift. The confidence they now show isn’t based on understanding — it’s based on what they’ve experienced inside the system. What feels like proof is often just the early stage of a much larger process.

THE FIRST STEP

They begin with a few hundred dollars. A small entry point that feels manageable. That’s not accidental. It lowers resistance and makes the decision feel harmless.

You’re not risking everything. You’re just testing it.

And once that first step is taken, the barrier is gone. From that point, every positive signal reinforces the decision. Each small win builds momentum, and that momentum makes it harder to step back and question what is actually happening.

THE ESCALATION

Very quickly, that small amount turns into thousands. This isn’t presented as pressure. It’s framed as confidence. They talk about results, consistency, and the feeling that everything is working.

But this is how escalation happens.

Early returns create belief. That belief replaces doubt. And once doubt is gone, larger amounts follow. What feels logical is actually predictable. The system relies on that progression.

This pattern has been repeated across countless Ponzi-style schemes.

THE SHIFT FROM INVESTOR TO PROMOTER

Then comes the moment that reveals everything. They say their biggest mistake was not telling people sooner.

That single statement exposes the structure.

Because real investing doesn’t rely on recruitment. It doesn’t depend on bringing others in. But here, the focus shifts from personal results to sharing the opportunity.

That’s the turning point.

THE RECRUITMENT ENGINE

Once that mindset takes hold, the system sustains itself. New people join. New money enters. Those who joined earlier appear to benefit.

But those returns are not coming from real profits. They are coming from new participants.

That’s the engine.

And it only works while that flow continues. The moment that slows down, the stability disappears.

THE GLOBAL WARNINGS

BG Wealth Sharing has already been flagged by regulators across multiple countries. Different jurisdictions, same conclusion: unregistered activity, unrealistic returns, and recruitment-driven growth.

These warnings are public and consistent.

At some point, it stops being coincidence.

THE ILLUSION OF TRADING

The story is built around trading. Signals, systems, technology. It sounds complex enough that people stop asking questions.

But look at the reality.

Copy. Paste. Click.

That’s not trading. Real trading removes human input because it slows everything down. It doesn’t rely on thousands of people acting at the same time.

This isn’t trading.

It’s routine.

When the United States Government Calls Goliath Ventures Inc a Ponzi Scheme, the Debate Is Over. I started documenting Goliath Ventures on 1 September 2025 after investors began quietly telling me withdrawals had stalled.

At the time, the explanation was simple: liquidity delays, wallet restrictions, MSB approvals in progress. Weekly emails reassured everyone that patience was required. What began as a financial dispute has now become a federal criminal case.

Christopher Alexander Delgado, CEO of Goliath Ventures Inc, has been arrested and charged by the United States government with wire fraud and money laundering. The Department of Justice is alleging that what investors were told was a sophisticated cryptocurrency liquidity pool operation was, in fact, a $328 million Ponzi scheme.

THE SCAM BEGINS

According to the federal complaint, from January 2023 through January 2026 Goliath Ventures raised at least $328 million from investors. The pitch was modern and technical. Funds would be deployed into cryptocurrency liquidity pools. Monthly returns between 3% and 8% were presented as achievable. Some were told returns were effectively guaranteed. Joint Venture Agreements promised principal would be returned “without diminution or impairment,” with withdrawals processed within five to seven business days.

That language created confidence. The contracts looked structured. The dashboards showed monthly distribution rates. The numbers increased. Investors saw what appeared to be performance.

THE STRUCTURE UNRAVELS

Federal investigators now allege that although investors were told their money was being placed into liquidity pools, little to none of it was meaningfully deployed that way. Instead, the complaint states that new investor funds were used to pay purported returns to earlier investors, to return principal to those requesting withdrawals, and to cover corporate and personal expenses.

Bank records cited in the complaint show hundreds of millions flowing into specific business accounts. Approximately $253 million was deposited into one JP Morgan Chase account. Another $75 million went into a Bank of America account. Tens of millions moved into Coinbase wallets allegedly controlled by Delgado. He was identified as the sole signatory on key accounts.

Blockchain analysis, including work performed by Chainalysis Government Solutions, allegedly showed only a small fraction of funds ever reaching platforms like Uniswap. Meanwhile, investor dashboards continued to reflect steady monthly returns.

If proven, that gap between representation and reality becomes the core of the case.

THE LIFESTYLE

The complaint also details real estate purchases allegedly funded with investor money. Properties in Winter Park, Kissimmee, Windermere, and Sanford, each valued between approximately $1.15 million and $8.5 million. The government outlines transactions that form part of the money laundering count, including a $300,000 transfer cited in the charging documents.

For months, investors were told delays were temporary. Meanwhile, according to the affidavit, funds were cycling internally and assets were being acquired.

THE ARREST

On February 24, 2026, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Florida issued a press release titled “Goliath Ventures CEO Arrested for Wire Fraud and Money Laundering.” The case is now formally listed as United States v. Christopher Alexander Delgado, Case No. 6:26-mj-01240-LHP.

The investigation is being conducted by IRS Criminal Investigation and Homeland Security Investigations. Prosecutors named in the case include Assistant United States Attorneys Richard Varadan, Noah P. Dorman, and Hannah Nowalk Watson.

On February 18, 2026, everything I’ve been saying was laid bare in federal court. Prestige Florida Property Investment LLC filed a blistering complaint in the U.S. District Court, Middle District of Florida (Case No. 6:26-cv-00392), accusing Goliath Ventures and its key players of securities fraud, civil conspiracy, and running an unregistered investment scheme that defrauded investors out of millions.

THE SCAM BEGINS

It started with a slick Joint Venture Agreement dated November 21, 2024. Investors were told they were "partners" contributing Bitcoin or Ethereum into liquidity pools on Uniswap, promised guaranteed 4% monthly returns—48% annually—with principal supposedly protected or insured. The document emphasized mutual effort and votes, but the reality was far different. Prestige Florida Property Investment LLC deposited $300,000 in March 2025, then another $1,000,000 on July 30, 2025—totaling $1.3 million. Early distributions kept the illusion alive, but in October 2025 the money stopped flowing.

THE FALSE ASSURANCES

By August 15, 2025, Goliath was sending out emails with a glowing "Financial Audit Review" from Blackblock Management Solutions claiming 115% or more reserves, full liquidity, and compliance with AML, FinCEN, and CTA rules. The report painted a picture of a conservative, rock-solid operation. Then came the November 17, 2025, "Forensic Audit Update"—a sudden "temporary halt" in distributions, blamed on an ongoing third-party forensic review for "gold-standard verification." Participants were assured it was all about safety and transparency. The truth? It was the beginning of the end.

THE LULLING EMAILS

November 18, 2025: Jonathan Mason relayed reassurances from Eric Clayman—GVI had "plenty of money," excess reserves of $100–200 million (or even "a few hundred million") after payouts, delays only due to audits and banking. On Christmas Day 2025, Chris Delgado himself emailed: "Merry Christmas," then blamed delays on an MSB account setup pushed to January 1, 2026, and announced USDC wallets would be required moving forward. January 19, 2026: more excuses—MSB application at the 80-day mark, institutional wallets restricted for "policy violations." Even account closures turned into bureaucratic nightmares requiring attorney-drafted letters.

THE FEDERAL HAMMER

The complaint hits with nine counts: federal securities fraud under Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5, sale of unregistered securities (both federal and Florida law), control person liability against Delgado, Mason, and Clayman, civil conspiracy involving the misleading Blackblock report and deliberate delay tactics, fraudulent inducement, FDUTPA violations, and breach of contract as an alternative claim. Prestige is demanding rescission, return of the full $1.3 million principal plus interest, attorneys’ fees, and more. This isn’t speculation anymore—it’s in federal court, building on earlier Broward County cases and potentially drawing SEC and FinCEN eyes.

THE HUMAN COST

Behind every email and every promise were real people who trusted the 48% returns and the "transparency" narrative. Families, retirees, everyday investors poured in money thinking they were part of something legitimate. When the excuses piled up—audits, banking issues, MSB applications, wallet restrictions—the money was gone. What looked like a DeFi opportunity was a machine designed to pull in funds, pay early participants with new money, and collapse when the inflows slowed.

He attaches his photo, social links, and a confidentiality warning forbidding sharing. The promise of a mass update “once something concrete” is repeated like a mantra. But concrete never comes. No MSB filing proof. No wallet audit. No regulator statement. Just patience—again.
Punit positions himself as one of the victims—“owed money too,” “pushing for payouts”—yet he openly admits he has no timeline and no authority to fix it. These emails aren’t information. They’re sedation. A way to keep the farm calm while the real storm builds.

THE THREE LAWSUITS THAT CHANGE EVERYTHING

Three separate complaints have landed in Florida’s Seventeenth Judicial Circuit, Broward County—all in the same courthouse, all under Florida law, all venue-locked to Broward by the JVAs themselves. Law360 reported on 11 February 2026 that the combined claimed exposure is nearly $55 million. These are not market-loss complaints. They are contract enforcement actions demanding Goliath honor its written guarantee: principal returned “fully… without diminution or impairment… absolute and binding” (§3.6), no exceptions.

- TwentyWon Ventures LLC v. Goliath Ventures Inc. (CACE-26-001290, Division 02, filed 23 January 2026)
TwentyWon, a Florida LLC, invested substantial funds into liquidity pools. The JVA promised 5–7 business day withdrawals (§8.1), ownership retention (§6.5), and absolute principal return (§3.6). Goliath refused. Damages exceed $50,000.
- Gregory Garrett Wilson v. Goliath Ventures Inc. (CACE-26-002371, Division 12, filed 10 February 2026)
Wilson contributed at least $5,815,000 from June 2025. He requested $3 million partial withdrawal on 13 October 2025—COO confirmed valid, no payment. Full demand on 24 December 2025—confirmed valid, no payment. Goliath emailed 5 January 2026 confirming at least $6.8 million owed (actual higher). Filing states over $8,743,763.65 due. Damages exceed $50,000.
- John D. Euliano (Trustee) and Brevard Nursing Academy, LLC v. Goliath Ventures Inc. (CACE-26-002331, Division 18, filed 10 February 2026)
Two JVAs plus Exit Agreements. Distributions stopped September–October 2025 due to “mismanagement” by Christopher Delgado. Exit paperwork submitted; Goliath confirmed balances ($656,231.38 Trust, $235,202.50 BNA) and promised 7–10 day payouts. Nothing delivered. Damages exceed $50,000 per plaintiff.

He attaches his photo, social links, and a confidentiality warning forbidding sharing. The promise of a mass update “once something concrete” is repeated like a mantra. But concrete never comes. No MSB filing proof. No wallet audit. No regulator statement. Just patience—again.
Punit positions himself as one of the victims—“owed money too,” “pushing for payouts”—yet he openly admits he has no timeline and no authority to fix it. These emails aren’t information. They’re sedation. A way to keep the farm calm while the real storm builds.

THE THREE LAWSUITS THAT CHANGE EVERYTHING

Three separate complaints have landed in Florida’s Seventeenth Judicial Circuit, Broward County—all in the same courthouse, all under Florida law, all venue-locked to Broward by the JVAs themselves. Law360 reported on 11 February 2026 that the combined claimed exposure is nearly $55 million. These are not market-loss complaints. They are contract enforcement actions demanding Goliath honor its written guarantee: principal returned “fully… without diminution or impairment… absolute and binding” (§3.6), no exceptions.

- TwentyWon Ventures LLC v. Goliath Ventures Inc. (CACE-26-001290, Division 02, filed 23 January 2026)
TwentyWon, a Florida LLC, invested substantial funds into liquidity pools. The JVA promised 5–7 business day withdrawals (§8.1), ownership retention (§6.5), and absolute principal return (§3.6). Goliath refused. Damages exceed $50,000.
- Gregory Garrett Wilson v. Goliath Ventures Inc. (CACE-26-002371, Division 12, filed 10 February 2026)
Wilson contributed at least $5,815,000 from June 2025. He requested $3 million partial withdrawal on 13 October 2025—COO confirmed valid, no payment. Full demand on 24 December 2025—confirmed valid, no payment. Goliath emailed 5 January 2026 confirming at least $6.8 million owed (actual higher). Filing states over $8,743,763.65 due. Damages exceed $50,000.
- John D. Euliano (Trustee) and Brevard Nursing Academy, LLC v. Goliath Ventures Inc. (CACE-26-002331, Division 18, filed 10 February 2026)
Two JVAs plus Exit Agreements. Distributions stopped September–October 2025 due to “mismanagement” by Christopher Delgado. Exit paperwork submitted; Goliath confirmed balances ($656,231.38 Trust, $235,202.50 BNA) and promised 7–10 day payouts. Nothing delivered. Damages exceed $50,000 per plaintiff.

They’ve been heavy. My inbox hasn’t been filling with speculation or curiosity — it’s been filling with confessions. People admitting they haven’t been paid since October, November, and December. People saying they stayed quiet because they wanted to believe this would resolve itself. People who were told to wait just a little longer, right up until “the end of January.”

The email is attributed to Eric Clayman, a Florida-based defence attorney listed as external corporate counsel for Goliath Ventures Inc. His name has appeared before in connection with the company, and the message was presented as a formal legal update. That matters — because attaching a lawyer’s name to an email like this is meant to create credibility, calm nerves, and slow questions. What it does not do is prove that funds exist, explain where investor money is, or justify why payments stopped months ago.

And right as more investors finally started comparing notes, sharing documents, and realising they were all being told the same rotating story, another email arrived.

This one came dressed up as a “New Company Update Message Received – Outstanding Exits & Distributions.” It carried a lawyer’s name. It sounded calm. It sounded official. And it said almost nothing of substance.

THE EMAIL THAT CHANGES NOTHING

This wasn’t a normal company update. It wasn’t openly published like earlier newsletters. It arrived as a gated document, restricted in how it could be accessed and shared. That alone matters.

The timing matters even more.

When people act alone, silence protects the company. When people talk to each other, pressure builds. These kinds of emails don’t appear to inform — they appear to slow momentum.

What the email does is repeat a familiar refrain: banking issues, MSB applications, compliance delays. What it does not do is answer the questions investors have been asking for months.

THE MSB EXCUSE UNDER THE MICROSCOPE

An MSB application does not freeze money. It does not prohibit distributions. It does not override contracts. And it does not explain why some people were paid while most were not.

MSBs handle large transaction volumes every day. Capacity is not the issue. If money cannot be paid now, the real question is not when MSB approval arrives — it is where the money currently is.

That question is never answered.

THE DECEMBER PROMISE THAT NEVER ARRIVED

In December, Goliath sent an official newsletter stating that October catch-ups would be paid, November payouts would be included, and normal payment cadence would resume.

Many investors are still waiting.

That leaves us with an uncomfortable contradiction: an audit claiming over 115% coverage, a newsletter promising full catch-up, a lawyer citing MSB delays, and investors unpaid for months. All of these statements cannot be true at the same time.

SELECTIVE PAYOUTS AND SILENCE

As more people come forward, another pattern becomes impossible to ignore. Some people were paid. Not because of exit order or contract timing, but because of proximity, influence, or the ability to cause problems.

Selective payouts are not a sign of stability. They are triage — deciding who to calm and who to stall. That is not how legitimate investment operations function.

WHY COMING FORWARD NOW MATTERS

Investigations don’t move on rumours or reassurance emails. They move on evidence. Contracts. Proof of payment. Wallet transactions. Messages. Timelines. Names.

For months, people waited individually. That protected the company. What’s changed is that people are now coming forward together, with documentation. That’s the difference between noise and accountability.

Not louder, not more dramatic — just heavier. My inbox has shifted from casual questions to detailed confessions. People who stayed silent for months are now reaching out, often late at night, often shaken, finally realising that what they were promised is not coming back. The floodgates didn’t burst all at once. They cracked. And now the water is rushing through.

THE SILENCE BEFORE THE BREAK

For months, investors were told to wait. Banking delays. Audits. MSB approvals. The same phrases repeated until they lost all meaning. People clung to hope because hope was easier than accepting that trusted friends, sponsors, and “directors” may have played a role in what was happening. Silence became a coping mechanism. If you didn’t ask too many questions, maybe the payments would resume.

THE INTRODUCERS

What stands out now is how many people entered Goliath through personal relationships. Family friends. Romantic partners. Long-time acquaintances. Sponsors weren’t strangers — they were people you trusted enough to hand over life-changing sums of money. Many of those same names have since vanished from the website, scrubbed from public association, quietly stepping away while investors were left exposed.

THE MOVING GOALPOSTS

The stories follow a familiar pattern. Initial investments at manageable levels. Promised percentages that sounded sustainable — until they weren’t. Minimums raised without warning. “Grandfathered” exceptions that never materialised. Accounts shifted between names. Percentages reduced. Exit requests acknowledged, then ignored. And always, the reassurance that this was temporary.

THE MSB EXCUSE

When payouts stopped completely, a new phrase entered the conversation: MSB. For many investors, it was the first time they’d heard it. Questions were brushed off. “Google it.” “Legal can’t explain.” What should have been transparency became deflection. The excuse wasn’t designed to inform — it was designed to stall.

THE SELECTIVE PAYOUTS

As most people waited, a few quietly got paid. Not because of contracts, but because of proximity, influence, or silence. This is where hope turns to anger. When one person gets their principal back while others are told to be patient, the illusion of fairness collapses. Selective payouts are not a sign of stability. They are a sign of triage.

THE ANONYMITY PROBLEM

Almost everyone asks the same thing: can this stay private? I understand the fear. But anonymity without action only protects the people who caused the damage. Investigators don’t act on feelings or fragments. They act on paper trails. Contracts. Transfers. Messages. Timelines. Silence doesn’t reduce harm — it concentrates it.

THE HUMAN COST

Behind every email is a family argument, a relationship strained, a retirement plan quietly erased. These are not reckless gamblers. They are ordinary people who trusted someone they knew. The shame keeps them quiet longer than it should. And that delay is exactly what allows these schemes to keep breathing.

WHY THIS MOMENT MATTERS

This is the point where outcomes are decided. Not by promises, but by evidence. Not by waiting, but by documenting what actually happened. The floodgates are open now because too many people are seeing the same pattern at the same time. Once you see it, you can’t unsee it.

That’s where this investigation begins.

For months, investors were promised regular distributions. When payments slowed or stopped, they were told delays were temporary. While money failed to arrive, dashboards continued to update, balances continued to rise, and investors were encouraged to wait just a little longer. Many did, because the system was designed to make waiting feel rational.

I’ve been warning about Goliath Ventures since September. What you’re about to see is what happens when patience runs out and evidence replaces hope.

THE DASHBOARD I WAS GIVEN ACCESS TO

An investor, whose identity is protected, handed over full backend access to his investor account portal. Not screenshots. Not summaries. Direct access to what investors themselves see when they log in.

Inside the portal, everything looks legitimate at first glance. Contracts. Identity documents. Assigned partners. Contribution records. Distribution entries. Month after month marked as “hyper-compounded.” It tells a complete story — but only if you don’t try to leave.

What’s missing is control. There is no self-service withdrawal function. No crypto transfer button. No bank initiation. Every attempt to exit must go through a human gatekeeper.

That design choice matters when money stops flowing.

WHEN HYPER-COMPOUNDING REPLACES PAYOUTS

Hyper-compounding is presented as growth. In reality, it becomes a holding pattern.

Even after withdrawals fail, balances continue to rise on-screen. The message is subtle but powerful: waiting feels safer than acting. But numbers you can’t access aren’t money. Liquidity is money.

When balances grow while exits are blocked, hyper-compounding stops being a strategy and becomes a retention mechanism.

THE WITHDRAWAL THAT CHANGED EVERYTHING

The investor formally requested a withdrawal under the terms of the contract.

That contract, which every investor signs, states that withdrawal requests should be processed within a defined window of five to seven business days, with delays allowed only under limited and specific circumstances. In this case, that window passed. No qualifying exception was cited. No funds were returned.

At that point, this stopped being about technical delays or explanations. It became non-performance under a written agreement.

Despite that, the account continued to show balance growth. Hyper-compounding entries kept appearing while the withdrawal remained unresolved. That’s not neutral accounting. It’s the appearance of progress without delivery.

WHAT THIS PATTERN TELLS US

This is not an isolated experience. Across multiple investors, the same pattern repeats. Withdrawals require permission, not execution. Timelines shift. Some people are paid while others stall. Communication tightens. Balances keep growing while access disappears.

No single data point proves fraud. Patterns do.

And once you see the pattern from inside the portal, it’s impossible to unsee.

WHY THIS MATTERS NOW

This investigation isn’t about theory or hindsight. It’s about what investors were shown versus what actually happened. It’s about contracts, timelines, and systems that continue to display growth while failing to meet their own obligations.

If you’re still staring at a dashboard and waiting for reassurance, understand this: waiting doesn’t improve your position. Delay only benefits the people holding your money.

I had no prior relationship with him or the company, had not requested contact, and had not consented to receive marketing of any kind.

THE EMAIL ARRIVES

The message was promotional and lacked an unsubscribe mechanism. Under New Zealand law, a single unsolicited commercial email can be unlawful if it does not meet basic requirements around consent, sender identification, and opt-out. That omission mattered, and it prompted a closer look.

THE DOMAIN THAT DIDN’T MATCH

The email did not come from afirmo.com, the company’s established domain. It was sent from robertr@winafirmo.com, a domain registered just weeks earlier and not referenced anywhere on Afirmo’s official website. When accessed, that domain redirected to an unrelated third-party site with no visible connection to accounting or tax services. Domain provenance matters, especially in regulated environments.

TECHNICAL CHECKS

A WHOIS and DNS review showed the two domains were registered, hosted, and configured independently. The established domain dates back to 2017; the newer domain was registered in late September 2025. These differences don’t prove misconduct on their own, but they are relevant to questions of sender identification and traceability.

SEEKING CLARITY

Before publishing anything, I attempted to verify the situation and provide a right of reply. I phoned the publicly listed office number, called the mobile number associated with Mr Rolls, left voicemail messages, and sent written questions by email. One response arrived from the newer domain, asserting compliance and “deemed consent,” but it did not answer where my email address was sourced, why a separate domain was used, or why no unsubscribe was included.

INDUSTRY CONTEXT

In my reporting on electronic spam, I’ve repeatedly encountered a pattern where companies outsource cold outreach to third-party lead generators and use secondary domains to protect the reputation of their primary brand. When issues arise, responsibility still sits with the company whose services are being promoted.

THE LEGAL CONTEXT

Even where “deemed consent” is claimed, New Zealand law still requires a functional unsubscribe mechanism. The facts here are simple and observable: the message was unsolicited, the domain was not publicly associated with the company, and no opt-out was provided.

REFERRAL TO REGULATORS

Given the lack of resolution, I referred the matter to the Department of Internal Affairs, providing the original email, full headers, and a timeline of correspondence. The referral itself is now a matter of record.

ON THE RECORD

This investigation documents verifiable facts and unanswered questions. It does not allege fraud or criminality. If clarification is provided on the record—about the domain used, the source of my email address, or the absence of an unsubscribe—it will be published in full.

It examines how trust was established, how credibility was borrowed, and how millions were raised long before anything verifiable was ever built.

This is not a hindsight critique. It’s a reconstruction of origins.

HOW TO REPORT GOLIATH VENTURES INC

dehek.com/general/scam-fraud-investigations/how-to-report-goliath-ventures-inc-and-take-action-if-youve-lost-money/

THE FOUNDATION BEFORE THE MONEY

Goliath Ventures did not begin with a functioning product, a proven trading operation, or verifiable revenue. What it began with was proximity — to people, to narratives, to perceived success. Introductions mattered more than evidence. Associations mattered more than documentation. Early confidence replaced early proof.

From the outset, there were ambitious claims about crypto mining, liquidity pools, and sophisticated strategies. Yet there is no clear record of mining ever being operational, no evidence of mined bitcoin sold to the market, and no independently verifiable proof that any promised strategy was producing external revenue.

That distinction matters.

THE SHIFT IN THE STORY

As time went on, the narrative evolved. Bitcoin mining faded into the background. Liquidity provision became the new explanation. The language grew more technical, more abstract, and harder for the average investor to challenge. Contracts referenced specific mechanisms, but public explanations rarely matched how those mechanisms actually work.

At the same time, fixed rates of return were offered — monthly, quarterly, yearly. That is not how legitimate mining or liquidity provision typically operates. Profit-sharing is variable. Risk is explicit. Guarantees are rare.

BORROWED CREDIBILITY

What did work was trust by association. People trusted people who trusted other people. Social proof traveled faster than verification. Questions were softened by familiarity. Skepticism was reframed as negativity. The absence of proof was masked by confidence and repetition.

In environments like this, belief spreads faster than facts.

WHEN PAYMENTS STOPPED

Once payouts became delayed, then missed entirely, the tone changed. Communication shifted. Responsibility blurred. Investors were told to be patient. Explanations multiplied, but clarity did not.

Crucially, despite repeated claims that investments were “fully insured,” there has been no evidence presented that any insurance claim was ever filed to cover missed payouts — raising serious questions about whether such insurance ever existed in the first place.

INTENT, FAILURE, AND ACCOUNTABILITY

Some argue that if Goliath began with legitimate intent, then this is simply a failed business, not a crime. That question matters legally. But intent is not proven by good storytelling — it’s proven by actions, records, and outcomes.

A project that never gets off the ground, never produces verifiable external revenue, and yet consistently offers fixed returns while raising new funds does not automatically become legitimate simply because failure is claimed after the fact.

This investigation does not declare guilt. It documents what can — and cannot — be shown.

And what’s missing is just as important as what’s claimed.

WHY ORIGINS MATTER

If the foundation was weak, the collapse was inevitable. Understanding how Goliath Ventures was built explains why it failed the way it did — and why so many people were exposed to risk long before they ever realized it.

]]> This investigation looks at what existed before Goliath Ventures Inc ever collapsed — before missed payouts, before silence, before the excuses. It examines how trust was established, how credibility was borrowed, and how millions were raised long before anything verifiable was ever built.

This is not a hindsight critique. It’s a reconstruction of origins.

HOW TO REPORT GOLIATH VENTURES INC

dehek.com/general/scam-fraud-investigations/how-to-report-goliath-ventures-inc-and-take-action-if-youve-lost-money/

THE FOUNDATION BEFORE THE MONEY

Goliath Ventures did not begin with a functioning product, a proven trading operation, or verifiable revenue. What it began with was proximity — to people, to narratives, to perceived success. Introductions mattered more than evidence. Associations mattered more than documentation. Early confidence replaced early proof.

From the outset, there were ambitious claims about crypto mining, liquidity pools, and sophisticated strategies. Yet there is no clear record of mining ever being operational, no evidence of mined bitcoin sold to the market, and no independently verifiable proof that any promised strategy was producing external revenue.

That distinction matters.

THE SHIFT IN THE STORY

As time went on, the narrative evolved. Bitcoin mining faded into the background. Liquidity provision became the new explanation. The language grew more technical, more abstract, and harder for the average investor to challenge. Contracts referenced specific mechanisms, but public explanations rarely matched how those mechanisms actually work.

At the same time, fixed rates of return were offered — monthly, quarterly, yearly. That is not how legitimate mining or liquidity provision typically operates. Profit-sharing is variable. Risk is explicit. Guarantees are rare.

BORROWED CREDIBILITY

What did work was trust by association. People trusted people who trusted other people. Social proof traveled faster than verification. Questions were softened by familiarity. Skepticism was reframed as negativity. The absence of proof was masked by confidence and repetition.

In environments like this, belief spreads faster than facts.

WHEN PAYMENTS STOPPED

Once payouts became delayed, then missed entirely, the tone changed. Communication shifted. Responsibility blurred. Investors were told to be patient. Explanations multiplied, but clarity did not.

Crucially, despite repeated claims that investments were “fully insured,” there has been no evidence presented that any insurance claim was ever filed to cover missed payouts — raising serious questions about whether such insurance ever existed in the first place.

INTENT, FAILURE, AND ACCOUNTABILITY

Some argue that if Goliath began with legitimate intent, then this is simply a failed business, not a crime. That question matters legally. But intent is not proven by good storytelling — it’s proven by actions, records, and outcomes.

Four hours later, it was gone. Before it disappeared, we secured the video and preserved the transcript. What it revealed was not transparency — it was a glimpse into how the narrative is being rewritten while investors remain unpaid.

THE VIDEO THAT SHOULDN’T HAVE LASTED

The video confidently spoke about the future — 2026, expansion, stability, and strength. It again referenced the previously disclosed $8.5 million investment into the downtown Florida Chase Building, presenting it as part of a renewed “global HQ” vision. On the surface, it looked like reassurance. In context, it raised immediate red flags.

THE CORPORATE SHIFT

On 3 September, the original Florida entity tied to GOLIATH VENTURES INC was shut down. A new company was registered in a different U.S. state. As far as we can determine, there are no operational offices tied to that new entity. Yet the video promoted a Florida-based headquarters narrative as if nothing had changed. That contradiction matters.

THE REPACKAGED ASSET

The Chase Building itself is not new information. It was purchased months earlier from Mark Nejame. What changed was how it was being presented — recycled as proof of momentum and future growth at a time when withdrawals had been frozen for months. Assets don’t equal liquidity, and buildings don’t pay investors.

THE SILENCE

Around the same time, public engagement across GOLIATH VENTURES INC’s social media quietly disappeared. Comments were disabled. Older posts were removed. Communication shifted from open promotion to controlled messaging. This is not the behaviour of a transparent operation addressing investor concerns in real time.

THE SELECTIVE PAYMENTS

We received independent intel from one individual claiming they received their initial investment back plus dividends in November, after earning more than 5% per month for over a year. This allegedly occurred while other investors — and even internal agents — had their withdrawals frozen. Selective liquidity during a freeze is never accidental.

THE CONTRACT QUESTION

Many investors believe they are protected by contracts. The uncomfortable question is simple: which company are those contracts actually with? Were they reissued after the September shutdown? And how enforceable are they against an entity that no longer exists in that jurisdiction?

THE NARRATIVE PIVOT

The removed video subtly introduced a shift away from crypto, toward “other ventures” framed as more stable. This is a familiar pattern. When promised returns collapse and liabilities mount, the story changes. The future is pushed further out. Responsibility is softened. Accountability is delayed.

THE FINAL FRAME

The last frame of the deleted video showed a Trump / JD Vance 2024 image. That wasn’t accidental. It appeared designed to signal future political cover — suggesting current failures are about timing, regulation, or the “wrong administration,” not the company’s conduct. The message was clear: hold the line now, help comes later.

The problem is that later doesn’t pay today’s bills, and deleted videos don’t erase obligations.

This video wasn’t removed because it reassured investors. It was removed because it revealed too much about how the story is being reframed while money remains missing.

THE PROMISES

In early December, investors were explicitly told distributions would be paid on December 15 and December 18. Those dates came and went without payment. There was no advance warning, no immediate explanation, and no direct communication when the funds failed to arrive.

When payments don’t show up on promised dates, the clock starts ticking.

THE SILENCE

After the missed payouts, communication slowed dramatically. There was no live address, no Q&A, no transparent engagement. Instead, investors were left waiting while uncertainty spread and private conversations intensified.

Silence at this stage is not neutral. It changes behaviour.

THE EVENT

While investors were waiting on delayed distributions, Goliath had no visible difficulty spending millions on a high-production promotional event. There were no signs of restraint, no austerity, no indication that liquidity was a concern.

The contrast was impossible to ignore.

THE NEWSLETTER

Eventually, an “Operational Update” was released. It attempted to reset expectations without addressing the core issue: promised payments that didn’t happen.

Rather than providing first-party proof — trades, wallet activity, performance data — the letter relied on generalised language, third-party examples, and future assurances. Investors weren’t shown what had been earned or where funds were. They were told to be patient.

BANKING VS CRYPTO

One of the biggest contradictions in the explanation was the reliance on banking delays, despite the fact that investor payouts were made in crypto. Crypto payments don’t require wire transfers or traditional banking rails. That inconsistency was never reconciled.

THIRD-PARTY EXAMPLES

Instead of showing their own results, the newsletter pointed to large decentralised exchanges and industry-wide data to argue that the model could generate revenue. The problem is simple: proving that someone else makes money is not proof that you do.

SOCIAL MEDIA GOES QUIET

Around the same time, Goliath’s social media presence was effectively wiped. Historical posts disappeared. Engagement was disabled. Only a single post remained visible.

When companies are confident, they communicate more. When they’re under pressure, they reduce visibility.

DISTANCING BEGINS

As scrutiny increased, third parties began quietly cutting ties. Names were removed. Affiliations disappeared. Due diligence suddenly mattered.

This is usually the phase before things escalate.

THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM

Behind the scenes, investor behaviour shifted. Screenshots were preserved. Conversations turned legal. People stopped waiting and started preparing.

This isn’t panic. This is the calm before the storm — the moment when confidence collapses quietly before consequences arrive.

This video documents what was promised, what failed to occur, what explanations were offered, and what evidence was never provided.

Where is Christopher Delgado? Goliath Ventures Inc Dec 15–18: Payouts Promised – Where is The Money? Where is Christopher Delgado? The December 15–18 payout window was promised in writing. October catch-ups. November payouts. Everything owed. Normal schedule. As this window opened, investors began asking the same question at the same time: where is the money? What should have been a routine payout cycle instead exposed silence, confusion, and a growing list of red flags that can no longer be ignored.

THE PROMISE

On December 3, 2025, Goliath Ventures Inc sent a newsletter assuring investors that the company was “fully back to its regular rhythm” and that the December 15–18 cycle would include all missed payouts going back to October. This message was clear, confident, and written. It was meant to restore trust after months of delays. But written promises mean nothing without verifiable payments, and as the window arrived, transparency vanished.

THE SILENCE

As investors waited, no public confirmation of payouts appeared. No transaction proofs. No statements. No explanations. Instead, something else began happening. Social media accounts connected to Goliath Ventures Inc and its leadership were quietly scrubbed. Executives began distancing themselves. One senior figure removed Goliath Ventures Inc entirely from his business profiles. This was not the behaviour of a company preparing to pay everyone what they owed.

THE STRUCTURE

As more information surfaced, a disturbing pattern emerged. Multiple sources described a payout system where the company itself did not pay investors directly. Instead, executive partners were allegedly instructed to send funds themselves, often in crypto, to the people they personally recruited. These payments appeared to come from personal LLCs, not from Goliath Ventures Inc. If true, this structure would insulate the company, obscure the source of funds, and recycle money internally while creating the illusion of legitimate dividends.

THE PRESSURE

Alongside this structure came pressure. Investors reported being told that withdrawing funds showed distrust. That compounding was the loyal choice. That better returns would be offered if money was left inside. Some were promised returns as high as eight percent per month for not withdrawing. These tactics are familiar to anyone who has studied collapsing Ponzi schemes. They are designed to slow withdrawals when liquidity is failing.

THE CRASH

In October, more than 380 billion dollars was wiped out of the crypto market in a single day. Shortly after, Christopher Delgado hosted a brief twelve-minute webinar telling investors to “calm the farm” and insisting Goliath Ventures Inc was not affected. Since that moment, confirmed payouts have become harder to find, not easier. Industry insiders began raising questions about whether investor funds had been deployed into high-risk ETH liquidity pools paired with altcoins and meme coins, or diverted into mining and leveraged trading.

THE WARNING SIGNS

Verified information indicates that some executive partners ensured their families’ passports were ready at the same time payouts were failing. This behaviour is not normal during routine operations. It is, however, a pattern repeatedly seen in financial collapses just before investigations begin.

THE QUESTION THAT REMAINS

If payouts were promised, where are they? If everything was back on schedule, why the silence? Why are individuals paying investors instead of the company? Why are executives distancing themselves, erasing online footprints, and preparing to leave jurisdictions? These are not abstract questions. They are the questions regulators, banks, and law enforcement ask when money stops moving and stories stop adding up.

This is not about panic. It is about accountability. When written promises collide with reality, the truth always surfaces.

Instead of confidence, we suddenly saw a loyalty sermon from Tomo Marjanovic, wrapped in the new hashtag #GoliathStrong, urging his “brothers” not to walk away. It was clear something inside the organisation had fractured, and this message was attempting to hold together what was already slipping apart.

THE MESSAGE THAT CHANGED EVERYTHING

I woke up to Tomo’s post and immediately recognised the tone. It wasn’t motivation. It wasn’t leadership. It was a man trying to keep an organisation from falling apart on the eve of its most important public appearance. When someone in his position starts warning people not to “disappear when things get difficult,” it means people already are. The façade was cracking, and the timing was too precise to ignore.

THE SCAM BEGINS

Goliath Ventures built itself on the illusion of strength — the events, the dinners, the staged luxury. But real strength doesn’t need constant reminders. Real companies don’t need hashtags to reassure their own members. As the cracks widened, the language changed. Business updates were replaced with emotional rhetoric. The organisation stopped talking about growth and started talking about brotherhood, loyalty, and codes that must be honoured. That’s when I knew this wasn’t a message aimed at the public. It was aimed at insiders preparing to step away.

THE MIAMI DINNER UNRAVELS

The Miami Casino Royale dinner had been marketed for months as a show of power. But as the date approached, people began backing out. Quietly. Nervously. Some told friends they didn’t want to be photographed with a company now covered in red flags. Others had already been speaking to investigators. Some simply sensed the end coming. And instead of reassuring them, the leadership tried to guilt them into turning up. Tomo’s message was a pressure valve — a last attempt to plug the holes before the ship rolled over.

THE LIEUTENANT STEPS FORWARD

In a legitimate company, the founder would be the one addressing the concerns. But Christopher Delgado vanished from the conversation, leaving Tomo to do the emotional heavy lifting. That’s what collapsing organisations do: the founder retreats, and a lieutenant steps forward to manage the fear. Tomo’s role shifted from “Director of Partner Services” to spiritual enforcer almost overnight. And once he stepped into that role, the language became unmistakably desperate.

THE CODE OF SILENCE

The idea of a “code” is not part of any compliant financial structure. It is part of a control mechanism — something used to keep people from asking questions at the exact moment they should be asking the most. When Tomo said the code must be honoured “even when it’s inconvenient,” he revealed how serious the internal doubt had become. This wasn’t about ethics. It was about survival. And he was begging supporters to ignore their instincts, ignore the evidence, and ignore the growing whispers.

BROTHERHOOD AS A WEAPON

The message wasn’t simply about unity. It was about preventing defection. Every line was aimed at those considering walking away: the promoters who had stopped recruiting, the team members who no longer wanted to attend the dinner, the insiders who had seen enough to question everything. By redefining loyalty as honour, and doubt as betrayal, the organisation tried to shame people into silence. But messages like this only appear when collapse is close.

Months of reckless, high-leverage trading came to a brutal end as his account dropped to just $984. More than $727,000 of his own money and around $75,000 in referral bonuses had been wiped out with no withdrawals ever recorded.

Four days earlier, GOLIATH VENTURES INC — a “quant fund” promoted across the same influencer ecosystem — suddenly froze payouts and claimed a “forensic audit” had begun. Their 14 November distribution never arrived. No transparency, no timeline, just familiar excuses.

The timing alone doesn’t prove a direct connection. But when two collapses unfold within days of each other inside the same circle of influencers, people start asking questions.

THE ON-CHAIN COLLAPSE

Before that final liquidation, Tate had already racked up an astonishing list of losses: a $597,000 ETH long in June, a $67,500 WLFI wipeout in September, a $93,000 BTC liquidation shortly after, a $235,000 BTC loss on 14 November, and then the $112,000 final blow that drained his account entirely.

Across more than 80 trades, his win rate sat around 35%.
Behind the motivational speeches and alpha branding, the blockchain told a very different story.

THE GOLIATH FREEZE

While Tate’s losses were playing out on-chain, GOLIATH VENTURES INC was telling investors everything was “healthy” — even as they locked the doors.

Less than 1% of their claimed trading activity ever touched a blockchain.
Their audit firm remains unnamed.
Whistleblowers reported insiders withdrawing millions just before the freeze.

That behaviour does not belong to a legitimate trading operation. It matches the collapse pattern of every modern Ponzi I’ve investigated.

THE SHARED ECOSYSTEM

Goliath’s leadership has repeatedly appeared within Andrew Tate’s wider influencer network. They’ve praised him, networked with him, replicated his “brotherhood” aesthetic, and even surfaced in his promotional yacht videos — though their faces are blurred across their own website.

Tate’s “War Room” sells itself as a global network of elite men operating behind the scenes.
Goliath sells itself as a private, high-yield investment circle.
The language is similar.
The secrecy is similar.
The imagery is nearly identical.

None of this proves their money flowed together, but it proves they move through the same influencer machinery — and that matters.

WHAT WE CAN PROVE

Tate lost roughly $802,000 on Hyperliquid with no withdrawals.
GOLIATH VENTURES INC froze payouts and refuses to provide evidence of actual trading.
Less than 1% of their claimed activity appears on a blockchain.
Their leadership occupies the same social and promotional orbit as Tate’s network.

Those are facts.

WHAT REMAINS THEORY

There is no confirmed evidence that Goliath investor funds were placed into leveraged trades.
There is no proof that Tate’s liquidation directly triggered the freeze.
There is no documented formal partnership between the two operations.

But the behaviour, secrecy, timing, and shared ecosystem tell a story worth following.

When luxury yachts, blurred identities, whispered networks, and promises of effortless returns collide, the ending is rarely surprising.
I’ve watched this pattern unfold too many times to pretend otherwise.

THE FIRST SIGNS OF TROUBLE

The earliest warning came quietly. Investors expecting their November 14th payouts woke to an unexpected message from Goliath Ventures Inc. The company claimed that distributions were being delayed due to a “forensic audit,” a phrase familiar to anyone who has watched a Ponzi scheme run out of road.

At first glance, the announcement was dressed up as a professional update. But the tone was wrong. Too cheerful. Too rehearsed. Too polished for a situation where millions of dollars had suddenly stopped flowing.

It didn’t take long for people to realise this wasn’t just a delay. It was the beginning of the end.

THE INSIDERS GET THEIR MONEY OUT

As ordinary investors waited, confused and anxious, information began to surface that key insiders had been pulling out staggering amounts of money—tens of millions—just days earlier. Names like Nick Petrillo, Tomo Marjanovic, Punit Shah, and Jayson Newton continued popping up. Their romantic partners and family members reportedly cashed out while payouts to everyone else were frozen.

The most blatant example involved Stacie Shenkman, widely known to be close to insider Nick Petrillo. While investors begged for withdrawals, she and several others connected to Goliath’s leadership allegedly walked away with large sums.

This pattern is classic Ponzi behaviour: insiders escape with whatever remains while the average investor is told to “stay patient.”

THE AUDIT WITH NO NAME

Goliath Ventures told its investors that a “leading Forensic Certified Public Accountant firm” had been engaged. What they didn’t say was more revealing: no firm name, no license number, no engagement letter, no confirmation from the alleged auditor.

Real audits—especially during crisis—are always transparent.
Here, everything was concealed.

Even individuals with more than $10 million invested were denied basic information. And when the company invoked the name of Joel Glick from Berkowitz Pollack Brant Advisors + CPAs, they offered no proof that an engagement even existed.

An audit without a name is not an audit.
It’s a stall tactic.

THE AGENCIES NOW INVOLVED

Investors are now being urged to contact the FBI, Homeland Security Investigations, and the RCMP in Canada. The United States Secret Service has a dedicated contact point for crypto-related fraud:

cryptofraud@usss.dhs.gov

Victims are also encouraged to file formal complaints through the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center at ic3.gov.

Time matters now. Assets dissipate quickly once insiders start scrambling.

THE FINAL CHAPTER BEGINS

Once the payouts stopped, the façade collapsed.
Goliath Ventures no longer looks like a company undergoing an audit.
It looks like a Ponzi scheme in freefall.

The tone of their communication has grown increasingly desperate. The promises are empty. The reassurances are hollow. And the insiders—those closest to Delgado—have already secured their exits.

For everyone else, the fight to recover funds begins now.

There were no advance warnings, no delays announced, and no meaningful explanations. Instead, a single excuse began to circulate among investors: the payouts were being blocked because of an “audit.”

That claim didn’t match how real audits work.
And that’s when the investigation began.

THE AUDIT EXCUSE

To understand why this raised red flags instantly, you have to know what a real audit actually does. Audits do not freeze bank accounts. Audits do not stop investor payouts. And auditors have no authority to block withdrawals.

When a company stops paying investors, it is not because of an audit.
It is because the money is no longer available.

Every hour that passed made this harder to deny.

THE ANONYMOUS AUDIT LETTER

Today, for the first time, I am releasing a document that arrived through my anonymous contact page on 12 September 2025. It claimed to be an “audit announcement,” but I could not verify who wrote it, where it came from, or whether it was genuine. That is exactly why I did not publish it at the time.

The formatting didn’t match any of Goliath’s previous newsletters—although even their official newsletters were often inconsistent. The tone felt unusual. Something about it wasn’t right.

But now that payouts have frozen, and investors are searching for answers, it feels important to show people the kinds of documents circulating in the background—whether they came from inside the organisation or were created by someone trying to imitate it.

The most striking part was the language.
It did not read like a standard audit notice. Instead of neutral financial terms, it referenced Ponzi scheme detection, fraudulent conveyance analysis, lost profit reviews, and economic damage assessments. These are terms rarely used outside forensic accounting or legal disputes.

Whether the letter was internal, leaked, or fabricated, it resembles the type of messaging that surfaces when a scheme begins to unravel.

THE CEO WHO VANISHED

While investors looked for clarity, new information began to surface. Multiple independent sources contacted me claiming that Goliath’s CEO, Christopher Delgado, had left the United States. Several said he was in Dubai. Some suggested he was not alone.

These details are still being verified.
But what is verifiable is the silence.

Chris has not addressed investors.
He has not provided documentation to support the audit excuse.
He has not produced any evidence of trading, blockchain activity, mining operations, surplus funds, or liquidity.
His absence is becoming its own statement.

*Messages continue to arrive from investors worldwide—people who invested savings, retirement funds, and family money. People who trusted colleagues, friends, and professionals who referred them into Goliath. People now terrified that they may never see their money again.

Some are angry.
Some are devastated.
All deserve the truth.

THE REALITY OF THE “AUDIT” CLAIM

By now, one fact is unavoidable:

Audits do not stop payouts.
Audits do not create silence.
Audits do not cause CEOs to disappear.

The “audit” narrative collapses under even basic scrutiny.

When payouts halt and leadership goes silent, the cause is not a review.
The cause is a lack of liquidity.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

This investigation is ongoing. More documents emerge daily. More internal conversations surface. More inconsistencies appear. Anyone with information can submit it anonymously. Every detail is verified before being released.

This story is far from over, and the truth is becoming harder for Goliath to hide.

It reads like a feel-good comeback story. But buried behind this glossy narrative is the part he didn’t disclose: his role as Director of Administration for GOLIATH VENTURES INC, a company now at the centre of federal scrutiny.

While the article highlights his podcasts, memoirs, and charity work, it never once mentions that the company he helps run was formally dissolved in Florida yet continued to operate, raise funds, and pay out “returns” that investors are now struggling to withdraw. That omission is not an accident — it’s the entire point of the sponsored piece.

THE MISDIRECTION

The timing of the press release is no coincidence. Over the last few months, withdrawals from GOLIATH VENTURES have stalled. Investors have panicked. Executives have gone silent. And multiple government agencies have quietly begun pulling apart the company’s paperwork, payouts, and banking claims.

In the middle of this, Stephen Davis suddenly emerges with a polished article celebrating his leadership skills, his book launch, and his “mission to help families.” Not one line acknowledges the growing number of people who fear they may have lost their savings. Not one line mentions the investigations. Not one line mentions the red flags stacking up behind the scenes.

Instead, the article rewrites the narrative: Davis is not an executive in an investment scheme under pressure — he’s now a publisher, a mentor, a coach, a philanthropist. A classic attempt to build credibility while the ship is taking on water.

THE HIDDEN NETWORK

Behind the scenes, GOLIATH VENTURES INC has been operating in the shadows. After the Florida entity was dissolved, the team quietly continued accepting investor funds. No disclosure. No registration. No warning. Investors were told everything was fine, even as internal cracks widened.

During this period, Stephen Davis was not a distant advisor. He was part of the administrative core — involved in investor communications, email broadcasts, and internal coordination. Yet none of this appears in the press release. Instead, the story has been replaced with a heroic rebrand built to distract from the growing scrutiny around the company’s operations.

This is the same pattern used by dozens of collapsing MLM-style investment schemes: when the heat rises, rewrite the identity of the key players and drown the public in “positive” sponsored stories.

THE INVESTIGATIONS

Investors across the United States — particularly in Florida — have reported difficulties recovering their principal. Whistleblowers have come forward with documents showing inconsistencies in the company’s filings and claimed banking relationships. Agencies are now reviewing everything from withdrawals to recruitment patterns to offshore communications.

These are not minor questions. They are the same signs seen before every major crypto-style Ponzi collapse over the last five years.

Meanwhile, the public is being fed a story about a firefighter-turned-author. The contrast could not be sharper.

The press release is not journalism — it’s damage control.

I’m DANNY DEHEK https://www.dehek.com, a New York Times–featured investigative journalist (print edition, by David Segal, featured in a Bloomberg documentary by Alice Kantor, and quoted by The Guardian Australia in coverage by Sarah Martin.

I use open-source intelligence (OSINT https://www.dehek.com/general/scam-fraud-investigations/what-is-osint-the-power-of-open-source-intelligence-in-scam-busting/) to expose scams, Ponzi schemes, and MLM frauds — naming and shaming the bad actors behind the lies.

This site is my home base, protected by PROJECT SHIELD https://projectshield.google/, Google’s defence system for journalists under digital attack. Scammers have taken down my social media, filed fake copyright strikes, and launched SMEAR CAMPAIGNS https://www.dehek.com/smear-campaigns/ to silence me — but I’m still here, because the truth doesn’t fold.

Most people know me from my YouTube channel, DANNY DE HEK INVESTIGATIONS https://www.youtube.com/@DEHEK, where I crash live scam meetings, confront fraudsters on camera, and expose deception in real time. My interviews aren’t rehearsed or polite — they happen in the moment, when scammers realise they’re being held accountable. My investigations have been featured by The New York Times, Bloomberg, The Guardian Australia, ABC News Australia, and others — because this work matters.

The BLOG https://www.dehek.com/blog/ is where everything connects — hundreds of detailed Scam & Fraud Investigations that don’t vanish when scammers report or censor my content elsewhere. Every post is backed by evidence — screenshots, transcripts, court documents, and blockchain data — creating a public record that can’t be erased. My PODCAST https://podcast.dehek.com is an extension of that work. It’s distributed across 18 major platforms — including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, YouTube, and iHeartRadio — so when scammers try to hide, my content follows them everywhere.

I collaborate with whistleblowers, regulators, journalists, and private companies that need real intelligence — not PR spin. Everything published here is verifiable and legally sourced: corporate filings, domain data, blockchain records, and the digital footprints scammers can’t hide.

“I’ve taken it upon myself to fight back — exposing fraudsters, confronting scammers, and making sure their lies don’t go unchecked.”

Everything I do here is about turning exposure into prevention — helping victims, informing the public, and making it harder for bad actors to hide.

]]> I’m DANNY DEHEK https://www.dehek.com, a New York Times–featured investigative journalist (print edition, by David Segal, featured in a Bloomberg documentary by Alice Kantor, and quoted by The Guardian Australia in coverage by Sarah Martin.

I use open-source intelligence (OSINT https://www.dehek.com/general/scam-fraud-investigations/what-is-osint-the-power-of-open-source-intelligence-in-scam-busting/) to expose scams, Ponzi schemes, and MLM frauds — naming and shaming the bad actors behind the lies.

This site is my home base, protected by PROJECT SHIELD https://projectshield.google/, Google’s defence system for journalists under digital attack. Scammers have taken down my social media, filed fake copyright strikes, and launched SMEAR CAMPAIGNS https://www.dehek.com/smear-campaigns/ to silence me — but I’m still here, because the truth doesn’t fold.

Most people know me from my YouTube channel, DANNY DE HEK INVESTIGATIONS https://www.youtube.com/@DEHEK, where I crash live scam meetings, confront fraudsters on camera, and expose deception in real time. My interviews aren’t rehearsed or polite — they happen in the moment, when scammers realise they’re being held accountable. My investigations have been featured by The New York Times, Bloomberg, The Guardian Australia, ABC News Australia, and others — because this work matters.

The BLOG https://www.dehek.com/blog/ is where everything connects — hundreds of detailed Scam & Fraud Investigations that don’t vanish when scammers report or censor my content elsewhere. Every post is backed by evidence — screenshots, transcripts, court documents, and blockchain data — creating a public record that can’t be erased. My PODCAST https://podcast.dehek.com is an extension of that work. It’s distributed across 18 major platforms — including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, YouTube, and iHeartRadio — so when scammers try to hide, my content follows them everywhere.

I collaborate with whistleblowers, regulators, journalists, and private companies that need real intelligence — not PR spin. Everything published here is verifiable and legally sourced: corporate filings, domain data, blockchain records, and the digital footprints scammers can’t hide.

“I’ve taken it upon myself to fight back — exposing fraudsters, confronting scammers, and making sure their lies don’t go unchecked.”

Everything I do here is about turning exposure into prevention — helping victims, informing the public, and making it harder for bad actors to hide.

]]> DANNY DE HEK Buzzsprout-18147311 Fri, 07 Nov 2025 13:00:00 +1300 378 2025 1173 full false Stephen McCullah’s GRAPE Scam Exposed – Bribes, Lies & AMA Red Flags Revealed Stephen McCullah’s GRAPE Scam Exposed – Bribes, Lies & AMA Red Flags Revealed In this exposé, Danny de Hek aka The Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger breaks down Stephen McCullah’s latest GRAPE AMA and the private messages he sent after being publicly exposed. What unfolds is a classic scammer playbook — denial, manipulation, and even a failed attempt to bribe me with $5,000 to take down my videos.

McCullah, known for past disasters like Apollo (APL), GSX, and LunaOne, now claims that his new project, GRAPE (GRP/GGT), will “revolutionise Web3” with AI wallets, free-zone citizenship, and zero taxes. In reality, it’s just another rebrand of the same collapsed projects — full of recycled promises, no evidence, and vague timelines.

Watch as I reveal every contradiction, false statement, and psychological tactic McCullah used in his so-called AMA. From fake “AI integrations” and nonexistent partnerships to the fantasy “free zone” that supposedly offers citizenship with no taxes — the claims are beyond ridiculous.

IN OUR PRIVATE EXCHANGE, MCCULLAH TRIED TO REWRITE HISTORY:

- Claimed he was “the opposite of a scammer”
- Blamed me for being “misinformed”
- Offered to donate $5,000 to my anti-scam cause if I removed my content
- Promised to get “fakejournalists.net” taken down if I cooperated
- Insisted “law enforcement was impressed with what we built” — without a shred of evidence

THIS IS THE SAME PATTERN WE’VE SEEN ACROSS HIS PAST PROJECTS:

Apollo – marketed as a revolutionary cryptocurrency but plagued with false claims and broken promises.
GSX – the so-called “gold-backed stablecoin” that never had verifiable gold reserves.
LunaOne – pitched as a metaverse worth billions, yet disappeared without delivering a single working product.
And now, GRAPE, another fantasy ecosystem built on buzzwords like “AI,” “Web4,” and “citizenship zones.”

If you think this all sounds familiar, it’s because it is. The Ponzi model hasn’t changed — just the branding.

In this video, I feed all of McCullah’s statements, messages, and his AMA transcript into ChatGPT for a full analysis — breaking down his manipulative language, spotting inconsistencies, and exposing how he twists truth into fiction. You’ll see how ChatGPT identifies each red flag, point by point, and why this project is just another high-tech mirage designed to lure desperate investors.

We’ll also go through the Signal and iMessage screenshots, where McCullah’s tone shifts from defensive to desperate, and finally to dismissive when he realises his persuasion tactics won’t work. He even tries to sound calm and rational — the moment a scammer starts saying “I wish you the best,” you know they’ve lost control of the narrative.

Throughout this exposé, I’ll show you how to spot these manipulation techniques — so you’ll never fall for this kind of crypto theatre again.

KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE:

- GRAPE (GRP/GGT) is a continuation of McCullah’s previous Ponzi schemes under a new name.
- His AMA is packed with false claims, non-existent technology, and fake progress timelines.
- McCullah attempted to bribe me and offer “donations” in exchange for removing exposé content.
- There is no proof of any AI wallet, free zone, or gold-backed assets.
- His communication style follows the classic scammer cycle: denial → manipulation → control → retreat.

If you’re holding GRP, GGT, or any token connected to Stephen McCullah, now is the time to step back, demand verifiable proof, and protect your funds.

]]> The Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger Buzzsprout-18000413 Mon, 13 Oct 2025 16:00:00 +1300 5392 2025 1172 full false Danny vs Goliath: New Zealand Journalist Sued by Christopher Delgado’s GOLIATH VENTURES INC Danny vs Goliath: New Zealand Journalist Sued by Christopher Delgado’s GOLIATH VENTURES INC New Zealand journalist Danny de Hek is being sued by Christopher Delgado’s GOLIATH VENTURES INC in a Florida courtroom.

This is Danny vs Goliath — a real-life David vs Goliath story where truth meets power.

On September 22, 2025, GOLIATH VENTURES INC filed a lawsuit against Danny — 7,000 miles away from his home in New Zealand — claiming he caused “millions of dollars in damages.” Their complaint accuses him of lying about their CEO, running a “smear campaign,” and publishing defamatory content.

Here’s what they didn’t mention: after months of investigating GOLIATH VENTURES INC, Danny uncovered what he believes is a large-scale Ponzi scheme breaking multiple U.S. laws and deceiving investors worldwide.

HIS REPORTING REVEALED:

- Impossible guaranteed returns (4–8% monthly)
- Unlicensed money transmission
- Unregistered securities sold to unaccredited investors
- Connections to convicted fraudsters like Verlin Sanciango (My Liquidity Partner)
- Deceptive claims of insurance and audits
- A pattern of withdrawal delays and shifting excuses
- Now, this lawsuit is being used to silence him.

In this exposé, Danny shows how Christopher Delgado and GOLIATH VENTURES INC have allegedly turned the courtroom into a publicity stunt — using the case to reassure panicked investors and attract new ones under the guise of legitimacy.

The lawsuit, filed by Oliver Birman of Perlman, Bajandas, Yevoli & Albright, reads more like an advertisement than a legal document. It describes GOLIATH as “operating at the leading edge of decentralized finance,” with “fidelity bond coverage” and “strategic Bitcoin initiatives” — phrasing that sounds suspiciously like investor bait.

Danny argues that this lawsuit is not about defamation — it’s about intimidation. It’s about silencing journalists who expose uncomfortable truths.

THIS VIDEO DIVES DEEP INTO:

- How GOLIATH VENTURES INC’s business model mirrors My Liquidity Partner, a previous Ponzi scheme.
- The background of its executives, including Nick Petrillo, who has previously appeared in DOJ indictments.
- How the lawsuit could backfire by exposing the company’s fraudulent operations to even greater public scrutiny.
- The Florida Supreme Court setting underscores a symbolic international clash — the American flag vs the New Zealand flag, justice vs corruption, truth vs manipulation.
- This is not just another scam story. It’s a test of how far financial fraudsters will go to protect their empire when exposed.

On 4 August 2025, the High Court granted a provisional liquidation order against RJS Capital (Pty) Ltd after finding compelling evidence of insolvency and misconduct.

With no introduction, this episode features Michelle reading her personal statement in her own voice—raw, emotional, and unfiltered. She recounts how Rory manipulated her and others over three years with false promises, fake legal threats, and spiritual deflections while withholding hundreds of thousands of dollars, including her daughter’s university fund.

This is not just a victim’s story—it’s a call to action. Michelle funded the legal battle, formed a creditor group called The Vanguard, and now speaks out to ensure no one else falls for Rory’s deception. Her courage and clarity in the face of betrayal expose the psychology of financial abusers and the manipulative tactics they use—including DARVO, fear management, and gaslighting.

This podcast stands as a public record—because silence protects predators.

After publishing a well-researched exposé calling out NexQloud’s outrageous lies, I received not one, but TWO legal threats from New Zealand law firm Bell Gully, delivered by their partner Tania Goatley. Their demand? That I delete my blog and YouTube video — and pay $5,000 — for the crime of journalism.

THIS VIDEO COVERS:

  • NexQloud’s laughable “NanoServer” scam — a glorified mini-PC they claim is better than AWS
  • Their phony PR campaign built on paid Forbes placements, fake Yahoo Finance write-ups, and no-name news sites passing off ads as journalism
  • Bell Gully’s attempts to intimidate me with weak legal letters while completely ignoring the facts
  • A deep dive into the so-called “independent” media reports that were actually advertorials and PR fluff
  • Why their entire business model looks like another crypto Ponzi scheme in disguise, propped up by buzzwords and zero proof of real clients


You’ll also see exclusive images satirizing the absurdity of this launch — including me (Danny) holding a NexQloud device with the same seriousness I’d give a Happy Meal toy, while their lawyer admires a racing-bike-turned-“NanoServer” like it’s the future of computing.

LET’S BE REAL:

  • If your groundbreaking tech can only be verified by paid ad space, you’re not innovating — you’re marketing.
  • If your response to scrutiny is sending lawyers instead of facts, you’re not building — you’re bluffing.
  • If your business model depends on silencing critics and promoting unproven tech to vulnerable investors, then you're exactly why this channel exists.


This isn’t journalism they’re trying to shut down — it’s accountability.

So, to Bell Gully and Tania Goatley: next time you want to protect a client, pick one that isn’t selling fairy dust and crypto hype to mum-and-dad investors.

To NexQloud: Your buzzwords are broken. Your NanoServer is nonsense. Your time is up.

To the public: stay sharp, ask questions, and always follow the money.

WARNING TO INVESTORS: If someone is asking you to “buy hardware” or “stake crypto” to earn passive income with zero transparency, it’s likely a scam. Do your due diligence.

In this eye-opening video, I, Danny de Hek aka The Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger, take you behind the scenes of a real scam attempt where a fraudster tried to steal my crypto wallet by impersonating Binance support over the phone.

*IT ALL STARTED WITH A TEXT:*
“Binance: Your verification code is: 829-106. If you did not request this code, please contact our support team immediately at +6499730014.”

*SOUNDS LEGIT, RIGHT? IT’S NOT.*
That phone number leads straight to a scammer operating out of a New Zealand line—armed with a script, psychological tactics, and a plan to con people into giving up their seed phrase.

This video includes the full transcript of the call—unedited—so you can hear firsthand the tactics used to:

- Mimic real Binance support
- Create urgency and fear
- Gain trust through repetition and tech jargon
- Pressure victims into installing Trust Wallet
- Trick them into revealing their 12-word seed phrase

They even pretended to “upgrade” me to a fake “Level 3 Binance Security Plan” that only allows one device to be logged in at a time. Their goal? To lure victims into a fake recovery process that actually hands over full access to their crypto wallet.

🔐 *KEY LESSON:*

Never, under any circumstances, give your seed phrase to anyone.
Not Binance. Not Trust Wallet. Not “support.”
If someone asks for it—they’re trying to rob you.

💣 This is the same scam targeting Mum and Dad investors around the world. And I’m not having it.

This channel is dedicated to calling out Ponzi schemes, MLM grifters, and crypto scam artists who prey on everyday people trying to secure their financial future.

I don’t just report scams.
I expose the people behind them.
I document the evidence.
And I fight back—publicly.

]]> This scammer thought he could outsmart The Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger… big mistake.

In this eye-opening video, I, Danny de Hek aka The Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger, take you behind the scenes of a real scam attempt where a fraudster tried to steal my crypto wallet by impersonating Binance support over the phone.

*IT ALL STARTED WITH A TEXT:*
“Binance: Your verification code is: 829-106. If you did not request this code, please contact our support team immediately at +6499730014.”

*SOUNDS LEGIT, RIGHT? IT’S NOT.*
That phone number leads straight to a scammer operating out of a New Zealand line—armed with a script, psychological tactics, and a plan to con people into giving up their seed phrase.

This video includes the full transcript of the call—unedited—so you can hear firsthand the tactics used to:

- Mimic real Binance support
- Create urgency and fear
- Gain trust through repetition and tech jargon
- Pressure victims into installing Trust Wallet
- Trick them into revealing their 12-word seed phrase

They even pretended to “upgrade” me to a fake “Level 3 Binance Security Plan” that only allows one device to be logged in at a time. Their goal? To lure victims into a fake recovery process that actually hands over full access to their crypto wallet.

🔐 *KEY LESSON:*

Never, under any circumstances, give your seed phrase to anyone.
Not Binance. Not Trust Wallet. Not “support.”
If someone asks for it—they’re trying to rob you.

💣 This is the same scam targeting Mum and Dad investors around the world. And I’m not having it.

This channel is dedicated to calling out Ponzi schemes, MLM grifters, and crypto scam artists who prey on everyday people trying to secure their financial future.

I don’t just report scams.
I expose the people behind them.
I document the evidence.
And I fight back—publicly.

LunaOne promised the moon—and delivered dust. Now, a rebranded company called FourthStar claims it has bought the “intellectual property” from LunaOne and wants to start fresh, while distancing itself from the failed crypto metaverse scheme that allegedly scammed thousands.

But the crypto community isn’t buying the redemption arc, especially when the new players admit they’ve inherited the tech—along with some of the same faces and stories.

The Rise and Fall of LunaOne

LunaOne, a flashy metaverse crypto project, lured in more than 11,000 investors with slick marketing, paid influencer promotions, and bogus claims of brand partnerships. Investors like Cindy and Ann were told that buying in early meant big rewards: pre-sale tokens offered at $0.15 were supposed to launch at $0.25.

But when launch day arrived, tokens debuted at just $0.05—and the platform fell silent.

Some investors didn’t even receive their tokens until after the crash. Others reported never receiving them at all. Promised partnerships with Coca-Cola, Xbox, and PlayStation turned out to be smoke and mirrors. Discords were silenced, admins were paid in tokens to suppress criticism, and investors who asked questions were kicked out.

False Promises and Delayed Tokens

The core deception lay in the tokenomics. Buyers were promised a controlled launch at $0.25—yet what happened was the exact opposite. Many received nothing. Others were air-dropped tokens too late to salvage any value.

The leadership, including Stephen McCullah and Daniel Puzny, disappeared from the project. Puzny, allegedly stepping down for “health reasons,” went on to launch a suspiciously similar project called NuUReal. McCullah, meanwhile, is the man who once raised money on Kickstarter to hunt dinosaurs in the Congo. Yes, really.

Who’s Really Behind LunaOne—and Now FourthStar?

Documents and interviews reveal that McCullah was always the true architect of LunaOne. The front-facing CEO, Daniel Puzny, was little more than a placeholder. McCullah’s name appears on legal documents, company registrations, and apology letters to the LunaOne community.

FourthStar’s current team includes Craig Wilshere, a developer who was contracted by LunaOne and never paid, according to insiders. John Seia, an Australian investor-turned-contributor, reached out to Danny de Hek in a phone call (recorded and published with this blog), claiming he lost $40,000 of his own money and is now helping FourthStar voluntarily. His words:

“I’m just a pleb trying to make something good out of the ashes.”


Misleading Marketing & Red Flags

LunaOne mastered the playbook of crypto hype: fake brand endorsements, influencer-driven sales funnels, staged AMA calls, and vague promises of “world-changing tech.”

They convinced the average person to part with thousands using “starter packages” and gamified staking options.

Meanwhile, The Run Guys—crypto influencers with huge followings—endorsed the project for months, even meeting with McCullah before launch. They later scrubbed their YouTube channel and released a non-apology.

My goal has always been to empower people, helping them avoid losing their hard-earned money. However, my recent experience with an individual I’ll call Ethan Graves (a pseudonym) and his associate, representing companies based in Austria and elsewhere, opened my eyes to a concerning aspect of the recovery services industry. This is my account, my observations, and my opinion, shared to provide cautionary insight to others.

The Podcast That Raised Red Flags

Ethan Graves and I recorded the podcast in one of the meeting rooms at the Global Financial Crime Summit 2024. The discussion centered on the event itself—how insightful the sessions were, the innovative strategies shared by experts, and the importance of global collaboration in fighting financial crime. Ethan brought a cameraman to document the podcast, which seemed like a straightforward way to capture and share the moment.

After the podcast, Ethan posted photos and videos on social media, including images of himself standing at a podium with the summit’s signage prominently displayed in the background. To someone unfamiliar with the situation, these posts might give the impression that Ethan was closely affiliated with the summit or had an official role as a delegate or speaker. In reality, Ethan’s only connection to the event was being invited to record the podcast in the venue.

While the posts didn’t explicitly claim he was part of the summit, in my opinion, the way they were presented could mislead people into believing Ethan was more involved than he actually was. At first, I thought little of it, assuming Ethan was simply proud of being associated with such an important event. However, things began to shift after the podcast aired.

A week after I returned home, I started receiving emails from people who had seen the podcast. Many of these messages were supportive, but a significant number raised serious concerns about Ethan. Several individuals claimed he was a scammer, warning me to be cautious. Others shared documents that painted a troubling picture of his professional activities.

These emails stopped me in my tracks. Until then, I had seen Ethan as a fellow advocate for scam victims—someone committed to helping those who had been defrauded. But the allegations and evidence I was receiving suggested a different story.

The documents I received included:

  • Contracts and agreements related to recovery services that raised questions about transparency and fairness.
  • Complaints from individuals who claimed they had paid fees upfront but had seen no progress or results.
  • Information suggesting that Ethan’s professional partner and their organization were more focused on collecting fees than on delivering real outcomes.

What had started as an impromptu podcast to highlight the value of the summit quickly backfired on Ethan. Instead of boosting his credibility, it prompted people to come forward with concerns and evidence that cast doubt on his intentions.

Returning Home: The Proposal That Changed Everything

Shortly after I returned to New Zealand, Ethan reached out with a proposal that changed my perspective entirely. He explained that he had been discussing with his professional partner at their organisation the idea of pursuing a recovery initiative for victims of Ponzi schemes, particularly HyperVerse. They wanted me to direct victims to their services and, in return, offered to pay me a flat-rate fee.

If you’ve ever wondered how scammers manipulate people into staying loyal to a sinking ship, this is the episode for you!

Megan’s video is a psychological rollercoaster, packed with blame-shifting, emotional manipulation, and classic cult-like MLM tactics designed to keep people trapped in the illusion of financial success. She categorises people into "quitters," "players," "workers," and "studs," making it clear that if you question the business model or fail to recruit others, you’re just a weak-minded loser who doesn't "want it bad enough."

But let’s be real—this is not about mindset or hard work. This is about a system that benefits the people at the top while everyone else fights for scraps. The red flags are everywhere:

🚩 Demonizing anyone who questions the scheme
🚩 Encouraging blind loyalty to leaders
🚩 Focusing on recruitment over actual product sales
🚩 Guilt-tripping participants for not working 24/7
🚩 Selling a dream that only works for the few at the top

VYB’s so-called "business opportunity" is crumbling, and instead of taking responsibility, Megan is spinning an elaborate web of excuses to keep people locked in. The irony? She warns about people who “stay busy being busy” while she herself delivers hours of fluff without providing a single concrete solution on how this company actually generates sustainable income.

If you’ve ever felt pressured into an MLM or been guilted into thinking you just weren’t working hard enough, this episode will open your eyes. Tune in as I break down the psychological tricks, expose the manipulation, and shine a massive spotlight on the tactics used to keep these schemes alive.

💥 Don’t be a victim of gaslighting—be informed. 💥

In this blog, we’ll break down how these scams work, the psychological tricks they use, and why you should never enable face recognition for financial accounts.

The Scam: A Fake Binance Security Call

I recently received a call from someone claiming to be from Binance’s security team. The caller told me that my account had been compromised due to a login attempt from an unfamiliar Samsung S20 device. They assured me that Binance had blocked the attempt but insisted that I needed to set up a new Binance account with face recognition enabled for extra security.

This was a classic scam designed to gain control of my account using biometric authentication. If I had followed their instructions, the scammers would have likely used my facial recognition data to bypass Binance’s security features and drain my funds.

How Scammers Groom You

Scammers rely on manipulation and trust-building to make their victims comply. Here’s how they tried to trick me:

  1. Asking for my Binance balance – The scammer wanted to know how much I had in my account. If I had said there was no money, they would have hung up and moved on to the next target. Since I lied and told them I had $15,000, they saw me as a worthwhile victim.
  2. Using fake security concerns – They created a sense of urgency by telling me my account was compromised, making me feel like I needed to act fast.
  3. Fake reference numbers – The first scammer gave me a reference number, but when I spoke to their “supervisor,” I intentionally gave a completely different number, and they didn’t even notice! This proved they weren’t looking at any real records—they were just making it up as they went.
  4. Insisting on face recognition – They repeatedly tried to get me to enable biometric authentication, claiming it was the safest way to protect my funds.
  5. Scripted responses – When I questioned their logic, they stuck to a rehearsed script, avoiding my direct challenges.

By keeping them talking, I was able to expose more of their tricks. The longer they spoke, the more inconsistencies appeared, proving they were fraudsters.

Best Security Practices Instead of Face Recognition

To keep your Binance account safe, follow these security best practices instead of using biometric authentication:

  • Use Strong Passwords – A unique, complex password is harder to breach.
  • Enable 2FA (Two-Factor Authentication) – Prefer Google Authenticator over SMS (SIM swap attacks are common).
  • Use a Hardware Security Key – A YubiKey or similar device adds another layer of protection.
  • Disable Biometric Login – If you’ve already enabled face recognition, turn it off immediately.

Final Verdict: Avoid Face Recognition for Binance

While facial recognition may seem convenient, it is not secure enough for financial accounts. The risks of hacking, deepfake attacks, and coercion far outweigh the benefits. Instead, use strong passwords, two-factor authentication, and hardware security keys to keep your assets safe.

]]> Scammers are getting smarter, and one of the latest tactics involves convincing victims to enable face recognition on their Binance accounts.

In this blog, we’ll break down how these scams work, the psychological tricks they use, and why you should never enable face recognition for financial accounts.

The Scam: A Fake Binance Security Call

I recently received a call from someone claiming to be from Binance’s security team. The caller told me that my account had been compromised due to a login attempt from an unfamiliar Samsung S20 device. They assured me that Binance had blocked the attempt but insisted that I needed to set up a new Binance account with face recognition enabled for extra security.

This was a classic scam designed to gain control of my account using biometric authentication. If I had followed their instructions, the scammers would have likely used my facial recognition data to bypass Binance’s security features and drain my funds.

How Scammers Groom You

Scammers rely on manipulation and trust-building to make their victims comply. Here’s how they tried to trick me:

  1. Asking for my Binance balance – The scammer wanted to know how much I had in my account. If I had said there was no money, they would have hung up and moved on to the next target. Since I lied and told them I had $15,000, they saw me as a worthwhile victim.
  2. Using fake security concerns – They created a sense of urgency by telling me my account was compromised, making me feel like I needed to act fast.
  3. Fake reference numbers – The first scammer gave me a reference number, but when I spoke to their “supervisor,” I intentionally gave a completely different number, and they didn’t even notice! This proved they weren’t looking at any real records—they were just making it up as they went.
  4. Insisting on face recognition – They repeatedly tried to get me to enable biometric authentication, claiming it was the safest way to protect my funds.

Megan is known for her bold claims and passionate leadership, but this interview goes beyond the surface to scrutinize the structure, ethics, and promises of her latest venture.

As someone committed to exposing scams and protecting everyday investors, I’ll ask the tough questions about VYB's business model, recruitment tactics, and transparency. Some of the key topics include:

  • The ethics of involving a six-year-old in a Zoom meeting to defend the legitimacy of the business.
  • VYB’s strong emphasis on recruiting downlines and the $442,860 monthly income claims.
  • The product offering—or lack thereof—and the justification for the $25 entry fee.
  • The role of accountability in previous ventures and why trust should be placed in this one.
  • Questions about qualifications, credentials, and compliance with regulations like Zoom’s MLM policy.

Megan will have the opportunity to clarify her position and address the concerns raised by critics, including her controversial partnership with her sister, Ragan Lynch. While Ragan will not be present in the interview, her involvement in this initiative and others will undoubtedly be a point of discussion.

This interview isn’t just about disagreement—it’s about creating a platform for transparency and accountability. Megan will have the chance to share her perspective, and we’ll leave it up to you, the viewers, to decide.

I’m Danny de Hek, here to expose scams and unethical practices that harm everyday people.

This video uncovers the shocking behavior of Matthew Edwards, founder of Mars Digital, who aggressively sent unsolicited emails promoting his SEO services—violating New Zealand’s Unsolicited Electronic Messages Act 2007.

After receiving two emails from Matthew, I decided to confront him directly. What followed was a heated 30-minute phone call where he repeatedly dismissed the law, ridiculed me, and claimed he wouldn’t provide his services because I’m “not a nice person.” Instead of addressing his blatant disregard for anti-spam regulations, he fixated on accusing me of swearing during our conversation.

WHAT IS THE UNSOLICITED ELECTRONIC MESSAGES ACT 2007?

This legislation, designed to protect individuals and businesses from spam, applies to all commercial electronic messages with a New Zealand link, including emails sent to, from, or within the country. Key points of the law include: Consent is Mandatory: Businesses must obtain express, inferred, or deemed consent before sending commercial emails.

  • Express Consent: The recipient has explicitly agreed to receive messages.
  • Inferred Consent: A prior business relationship implies the recipient would reasonably expect contact.
  • Deemed Consent: The recipient has published their contact details publicly without stating they do not wish to be contacted.

Content Requirements: All commercial messages must:

  • Accurately identify the sender, including valid contact details.

Provide a functional and free unsubscribe option.

  • Penalties for Non-Compliance:*

Organizations violating the law can face fines of up to $500,000, while individuals can be fined up to $200,000. HIGHLIGHTS

FROM THE CALL:

1. Matthew’s Email Tactics Exposed:

  • His first email included a pitch for a “Christmas Sleigh-EO Audit,” claiming his team would analyze local e-commerce sites for SEO improvements.
  • A follow-up email three days later insisted the initial email might have been “buried.”

2. Defiance of the Law:

  • During our conversation, I explained the legal requirements for sending unsolicited emails, but Matthew dismissed these concerns outright, insisting he was within his rights.

3. Unbelievable Responses:

  • Instead of engaging professionally, Matthew ridiculed me and accused me of being unkind, pivoting the focus away from his questionable practices.

4. SEO Irony:

  • Despite claiming to be an SEO expert, Mars Digital’s website fails to rank for fundamental search terms like “SEO Website Marketing Services NZ.”

WHY THIS VIDEO MATTERS:

Unsolicited emails are more than an annoyance—they undermine trust in business and infringe on privacy. Many New Zealanders remain unaware of their legal protections, making them vulnerable to these tactics. This video not only exposes one company’s practices but also aims to educate the public about their rights under the Unsolicited Electronic Messages Act 2007. By holding businesses accountable, we can push for better compliance and reduce the prevalence of spam in our inboxes.

REJECTED from DECULT CONFERENCE 2024: Why Was EX-Jehovah's Witness Danny de Hek Silenced & Dropped? In this video, I share the unfortunate experience of being removed as a speaker from the upcoming DeCult 2024 Conference, despite already being publicly announced as part of the program. After receiving an email from Anke Richter, the event's director, explaining the decision, I felt compelled to respond publicly.

This decision was made after members of the ex-Jehovah’s Witness (JW) community raised concerns about my inclusion in the event, resulting in DeCult's decision to retract my speaking slot. The reasoning? Concerns that my participation would keep a large portion of the ex-JW community from attending. While I understand the need to consider the audience’s comfort and safety, I believe this situation has been handled unfairly, as no one from DeCult approached me directly to hear my side of the story.

In this video, I speak with Dennis Parker, one of the event co-organizers, via Zoom, where I express my frustration and disbelief at how this has unfolded. I’ve always aimed to use my platform to expose harmful organizations like Jehovah’s Witnesses, raising awareness of cult practices and helping people break free from controlling environments. I believe it’s ironic that DeCult, an organization dedicated to exposing harmful cults, is shunning me in a manner all too similar to the cult-like behavior we seek to expose.

I’ve been deeply involved in exposing cults for years and have even done a successful interview with Lara Kaput, which DeCult themselves promoted.

Yet, despite this, more recent accusations have come forward that I’ve never had a chance to address with the organizers. It feels like an entire community has made a decision about me based on misinformation, and I wasn’t even given a platform to defend myself.

Additionally, Rob Woolley, a colleague and respected figure from the Toastmasters and Rotary communities, wrote a heartfelt letter in support of me to Dennis Parker. In this letter, Rob highlights my professionalism and my ability to handle controversial topics with grace and humor. However, Dennis claims that this letter wasn’t passed on to Anke, leaving me even more perplexed as to how this situation has been handled.

Key Points in This Video:

- I share the email from DeCult Director Anke Richter explaining their decision to remove me as a speaker due to concerns raised by the ex-Jehovah’s Witness community.
- My conversation with Dennis Parker, where I plead for a meeting with the DeCult committee to address these concerns and have my voice heard.
- My feelings of being treated unfairly and shunned, similar to the behavior cults impose on their members, ironically by an organization meant to fight against cult practices.
- A heartfelt letter from Rob Woolley supporting my character, professionalism, and ability to handle controversial topics, which was not passed on to the decision-makers.

I believe everyone should have the chance to tell their side of the story before decisions like these are made. In this video, I ask for your feedback and invite you to share your thoughts on how this situation has been handled. Do you believe this decision was justified, or do you think I should have been given the chance to present my side of the story to the DeCult committee?

Your input is valuable to me, and I encourage you to engage in the conversation. Let’s stand up against censorship, hypocrisy, and the very cult-like practices we’re working to expose.

]]> In this video, I share the unfortunate experience of being removed as a speaker from the upcoming DeCult 2024 Conference, despite already being publicly announced as part of the program. After receiving an email from Anke Richter, the event's director, explaining the decision, I felt compelled to respond publicly.

This decision was made after members of the ex-Jehovah’s Witness (JW) community raised concerns about my inclusion in the event, resulting in DeCult's decision to retract my speaking slot. The reasoning? Concerns that my participation would keep a large portion of the ex-JW community from attending. While I understand the need to consider the audience’s comfort and safety, I believe this situation has been handled unfairly, as no one from DeCult approached me directly to hear my side of the story.

In this video, I speak with Dennis Parker, one of the event co-organizers, via Zoom, where I express my frustration and disbelief at how this has unfolded. I’ve always aimed to use my platform to expose harmful organizations like Jehovah’s Witnesses, raising awareness of cult practices and helping people break free from controlling environments. I believe it’s ironic that DeCult, an organization dedicated to exposing harmful cults, is shunning me in a manner all too similar to the cult-like behavior we seek to expose.

BILLION DOLLAR MIND preying on Christians with Crypto Gifting Scam or Facilitating Money Laundering? Welcome to another hard-hitting investigation on The Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger channel! I’m Danny de Hek, also known as The Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger, and my mission is to bring light to the unethical and illegal schemes that prey on mum and dad investors. My goal is to create awareness and help prevent families from losing their hard-earned savings to scammers lurking behind multilevel marketing (MLM) schemes and Ponzi scams.

In this video, I tackle Billion Dollar Mind, a cash gifting scam that’s hiding behind the guise of cryptocurrency. But what makes this even more appalling is their use of religious scripture and Christian beliefs to target unsuspecting individuals. By quoting verses like Matthew 21:22 and suggesting that faith alone will lead to financial success, they exploit the trust and goodwill of their community in a predatory way.

KEY QUESTIONS I POSED DURING THE VIDEO:

Is it ethical for a company to operate without transparency about its ownership or leadership, especially when significant financial contributions are required?

Why does Billion Dollar Mind refuse to disclose who’s behind the platform? Could it be to avoid accountability?

What risks are associated with a business model based solely on recruiting new participants rather than offering legitimate products or services?

How sustainable is a gifting scheme, especially when recruitment inevitably slows?

Does the use of terms like 'gifting' or 'donations' truly distance Billion Dollar Mind from legal consequences, or is this just a clever disguise?

Authorities have cracked down on similar schemes in the past, so why should this be any different?

SHOCKING REVELATIONS

In a recent Zoom meeting, I had the opportunity to confront John Austin, one of the key figures behind Billion Dollar Mind. Despite their knowledge that cash gifting is illegal, Austin and his team believe they can bypass the law by using cryptocurrency. Even worse, they wrap their scheme in a religious cloak, targeting people with Christian beliefs and using scripture to justify their actions. Is this ethical? Is it legal? I don’t think so—and I explain why.

QUESTIONS FOR MY VIEWERS TO PONDER:

Is it ethical to manipulate someone’s faith to entice them into a financial scheme, especially one with a high likelihood of collapse?

Does using scripture in this context distort the spiritual message, turning faith into a tool for profit?

What is the moral responsibility of those who use religion to promote financial schemes, especially when many participants are likely to lose money?

THE LEGAL PERSPECTIVE:

While gifting money to a friend or family member is legal in the U.S., cash gifting schemes are typically illegal when structured like Billion Dollar Mind. 

These schemes often resemble pyramid schemes, where recruiting participants is the only way to make money. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) have prosecuted such schemes as fraudulent because they lack legitimate products or services, relying instead on continuous recruitment for financial gain.

By raising public awareness, I aim to save mum and dad investors from losing their kids' inheritance to the multilevel marketing bottom feeders of the world.

Today’s video is a bit different but equally important. We're diving into a critical issue that affects many families: youth behavior problems. In this follow-up video, I have a candid conversation with a retired teacher who shares his invaluable experience, knowledge, and skills in addressing such issues. This discussion was conducted over the telephone and lasted about an hour. For privacy reasons, our guest has chosen to remain anonymous, but he has taught at a school in Auckland, New Zealand, for 25 years.

THE INCIDENT: A RECAP

In a previous video, I shared a distressing experience involving a group of youths who have been persistently vandalizing my friend shop. These incidents escalated when I was physically assaulted, resulting in broken glasses. The alarming part is that these perpetrators are only 14 years old, yet they seem to have no fear of consequences, despite being known to law enforcement.

A TEACHER'S PERSPECTIVE

In this video, the retired teacher listens to voice recordings of Tane Harimate and his mother after the incident. He offers profound insights and wisdom that can benefit all parents, especially those with children struggling with behavior problems. His experience in dealing with such issues in a school setting provides a unique perspective on the root causes and potential solutions for these troubling behaviors.

KEY POINTS OF DISCUSSION

Understanding Youth Behavior: The teacher delves into the psychological and social factors that contribute to youth crime and misbehavior. He highlights the importance of addressing these issues early on to prevent future problems.

Effective Communication: The importance of open and honest communication between parents and children is emphasized. The teacher shares practical advice on how to foster a healthy dialogue that can lead to positive behavioral changes.

Role of Education: The discussion touches on how schools can play a crucial role in shaping the behavior and attitudes of young people. The teacher shares strategies that have proven effective in his 25 years of experience.

Legal and Social Accountability: We explore the broader societal and legal implications of youth crime. The teacher discusses the need for a balanced approach that holds young offenders accountable while providing them with opportunities for rehabilitation.

WHY THIS MATTERS

This video is not just about a single incident but a call to action for parents, educators, and the community to come together and address the systemic issues contributing to youth crime. By sharing this retired teacher's insights, I hope to provide valuable guidance to those facing similar challenges with their children.

- What type of person typically purchases antiques?
- How do you say no to someone who’s asking too much money for their loved antiques?

We're diving headfirst into the chaos surrounding the highly anticipated Boomerang MVP launch. Originally slated for March 1st, then postponed to April 2nd, 8th, 20th, and finally May 3rd, the constant delays have raised serious doubts about Boomerang's credibility. But that's not the only red flag.

Recent developments have exposed troubling issues with Boomerang's development process. Despite assurances from the team, a visit to their supposed testing website, testing.app-boomerang.trade, triggers a warning from MetaMask about deceptive site warnings and phishing scams. While Boomerang brushes off these concerns, MetaMask support confirms the legitimacy of the warning, advising users to steer clear of the site and the company behind it.

During our live stream, we'll dissect the latest communication from Boomerang's spokesperson, Shavez, examining claims of API response time improvements, UI enhancements, and scalability breakthroughs. Are these advancements genuine progress or merely a smokescreen to mask deeper problems?

Furthermore, we'll investigate reports of a troubling lag between Boomerang's UI and Aggregator websites, potentially causing failed transactions. Is this lag solely to blame, or are there more sinister forces at play? We're demanding transparency and accountability from Boomerang as we seek answers to these critical questions.

Support my mission to expose crypto scams by fueling my content creation with a virtual coffee on BuyMeACoffee at https://www.buymeacoffee.com/dehek. Your generosity keeps me motivated and ensures that I can continue fighting for financial justice in the crypto world.

In today's episode, we have Rob joining us in the studio to dissect the perplexing world of "WAAS" (We Are All Satoshi) and uncover the reasons why we're waving goodbye to this dubious opportunity.

Rob's recent video, "WAAS We Are All Satoshi Makes NO Sense. Why I'm OUT; Shavez, Sam Lee, Proof Of Reserve, Trustees etc," https://youtu.be/jWl5bjiSJEk serves as the launching pad for our deep dive into the heart of the matter. We take a magnifying glass to critical aspects like Shavez, Sam Lee (aka Scam Lee), Proof Of Reserve, Trustees, and more.

After witnessing the rollercoaster ride this opportunity has taken in several videos, we've made the tough decision not to put our money on the line and certainly not to endorse it for others. But why, you ask? This video addresses the questions that need answers to justify WAAS as a legitimate investment, yet these questions have largely remained unasked.

We invite you to engage in a lively discussion by sharing your thoughts in the comments below. Your perspective is invaluable, and your support fuels our mission. And, of course, don't forget to hit that subscribe button to stay updated on our quest to uncover the truth behind crypto scams.

Join us as we unravel the mysteries together and shed light on the dark corners of the crypto world. Let's get the conversation started!

In our 2-hour discussion, Rob and I delve deep into the world of individuals who make a living by promoting Ponzi schemes. We scrutinize the feasibility of "We Are All Satoshi" (WAAS) and expose the infamous Sam Lee, also known as Scam Lee, and others who have been implicated in promoting these questionable projects.

Our ultimate goal is to provide clarity to those who are still on the fence, trying to determine whether WAAS is a scam or a legitimate opportunity. Together, we aim to arm the crypto community with knowledge, awareness, and the ability to spot deception from a mile away.

Join us on this journey towards a safer, more transparent crypto space. Together, we can make a difference.

Unveiling Truth About This Controversial Crypto! The Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger HEX: SCAM or LEGIT? Unveiling Truth About This Controversial Crypto! The Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger I've been receiving a lot of passionate messages from people about HEX, telling me that I don't know what I'm talking about. So, I did a search on OpenAI to find out if HEX was a Ponzi scheme. To my surprise, it told me it wasn't. 😮 I don't claim to be a crypto genius, but when I see their website claims...

🔎 HEX mining averages 38% returns a year.
⌛ 3+ Years of flawless operation.
💰 You mint your own rewards, no middlemen or minimums. (Mining HEX doesn't require any hardware or electricity!)
💲 10,000 HEX used to cost 57 cents. Now they cost $227.

So, here's my take: if it involves crypto multilevel marketing, it's a scam. The fact that this company is only three years old seems like a bold statement. However, it's right in line with other Ponzi schemes like CashFX, NovaTechFX, and WEWE Global. Without more research, I'd say it's too good to be true, and my gut feeling says it's a scam. 😕

Over the last three days, three people have contacted me, telling me I don't know what I'm talking about regarding HEX. The same thing happened when I was exposing HyperVerse. It seems like these organizations have many accounts that shut down people trying to expose them. 🚫 It appears to be a pattern. I think better in patterns, and I never claimed my way was the only way,

I'm very entrepreneurial, and I believe in selling a product or service for a profit and putting your money in the bank. It makes life a lot simpler than staking your money with a company that only has three years of history. I haven't done an in-depth dive on HEX because it takes a long time. 😅

But here's the thing: I'm here to name and shame anyone running a Ponzi scheme or a scam. I'm not here to help people find investment opportunities. So, I don't really want to publish anything that looks legitimate because I'm not a financial adviser, and I don't have enough knowledge about crypto.

However, a few knowledgeable people have told me not to invest in any other crypto besides Bitcoin. ⛔

Bitcoin is limited to 21,000,000 tokens or coins, as you call them. All the other cryptos can simply create new tokens or coins at any time. What concerns me about HEX is that it offers unrealistic returns for people's investments, doesn't seem to have a product or service, and of course, the other side of it is...

They pay a 20% commission to people who introduce new participants. So, remember, anything related to crypto and multilevel marketing equals a scam. I truly believe that this is one of the shadiest investments you could get into. ☠️

All the other arguments like "never invest money that you are not prepared to lose" just make me gag. It's a ploy they use to build trust with people. Another thing I discovered is that the guys who started HEX, Richard Heart, are not even using their real name (Richard Schueler). As far as I'm aware, they don't seem to have offices, nor are they a registered business. Are they declaring income? Do they pay their taxes

There's a real ScamDemic going on at the moment, with billions of dollars lost to crypto scams. 😡

I'll do some investigation on HEX, but I'm not here to promote a crypto opportunity that I feel will vanish one day. Give me your thoughts, and I'll conduct an investigation. Please share your experience with me at https://www.dehek.com/contact/

Dyslexia is a learning difference that affects millions of people worldwide. Often misunderstood and misrepresented, dyslexia can be a source of frustration and hindrance, particularly in academic settings. However, this podcast aims to challenge that narrative by highlighting the potential and unique strengths that come with dyslexia.

Danny de Hek, a dyslexic entrepreneur, has defied the odds and harnessed his dyslexic brain to excel in various aspects of his life. Throughout the podcast, Danny shares his personal experiences and how he has transformed his challenges into opportunities for growth and success. His journey is a testament to the power of embracing one's differences and finding innovative ways to overcome limitations.

A total of 61 people were in attendance, with 36 present in person and 25 joining online.

According to reports, a 35-year-old man, identified as a former member of the Jehovah’s Witnesses, shot 10 times into a vehicle with a lady inside who escaped, unharmed outside the Kingdom Hall. He then entered the building, firing 135 rounds with a backpack full of ammunition.

This tragic incident resulted in the deaths of six adults, with eight others sustaining injuries, including the loss of an unborn child. The police responded to the incident swiftly, arriving eight minutes after the shooting began. The gunman fled upstairs and was found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

During a search of the man’s apartment, authorities found 15 loaded magazines and four boxes of ammunition, totalling 200 cartridges. Police reported that an anonymous letter received earlier revealed that the man had anger towards the Witnesses and his former employer, although he had no prior criminal record and was not known as an extremist.

WEWE Global comes to Christchurch, got an email from David Farrier asking me to put together a few paragraphs explaining why this is not a good thing.

For the last 12 months I’ve been exposing the Ponzi scheme HyperVerse, it is estimated that $4 billion has been lost to people that invested in this crypto opportunity of a lifetime.

Originally people were told that if they invest $300 they would get $900 paid back to them in rewards in 600 days. Now they come out with different opportunities and rebrand themselves every few weeks.

Like any Ponzi scheme it’s impossible for them to survive. Once the money stopped, the lies started and the community got angry. The so-called ‘corporate’ behind it all promised to return people’s investments and claimed hackers had stolen the money. This is all part of the slow exit strategy.

Many of the leadership team that have been promoting HyperVerse, who are called VIP5, jumped ship and started diversifying to other Ponzi schemes such as NovaTechFX and WEWE Global.

One of the biggest multi-level marketers in the world who is promoting WEWE Global is Kalpesh Patel who has moved to Dubai. He recently travelled to South Africa running a promotion similar to Diego Endrizzi, who is travelling to 5 locations in New Zealand and Australia in February.

WEWE Global Oceania Tour 2023

  • Pullman Melbourne Albert Park Sat, 4 Feb 2023
  • Novotel Sydney Parramatta Tue, 7 Feb 2023
  • Novatel Christchurch Airport Thu, 9 Feb 2023
  • InterContinental Sanctuary Cove Resort Sat, 11 Feb 2023
  • Adelaide Convention Centre Wed, 15 Feb 2023

These events are used to recruit new leaders and entice crypto investors into an opportunity of a lifetime. It is all multi-level marketing. They do not have a product or a service. They are selling a promise and a hope of big returns.

I’ve tried to disrupt them as much as possible by contacting all the venues that are hosting the events, ‘WEWE Global Oceania Tour 2023’. I’ve also contacted the Serious Fraud Office who has lodged a complaint with the FMA.

Don’t be fooled by these men in suits who use crypto terminology. They are the scumbags of the planet, they are the modern day thieves who will rob you blind.

The people that are falling victim are not youngsters, they are people heading into retirement who are trying to get their head around crypto, the blockchain, the ecosystem and the Metaverse. Many of the people that contact me on a daily basis have invested their retirement money and lost the lot. They didn’t seem to fully understand what they had invested in. They trusted a friend or a family member who encouraged them to invest.

I feel like I am fighting this battle alone, but if I can disrupt or slow these fraudsters down, I will do everything in my power to throw obstacles at them. They defraud people out of their hard earned dollars.

I’ve created over 150 YouTube videos exposing Ponzi schemes and scams. I am currently investigating 50 like-minded Ponzi schemes. I haven’t produced a video exposing WEWE Global yet (Maybe One).  Watch this Podcast on YouTube https://youtu.be/KNlUBDCwl7E

I needed some content so I used a new service called OpenAI and wrote this blog asking it for a parallel between Ponzi schemes and religious cults.

Religious cults and Ponzi schemes are both forms of manipulation and exploitation that can cause significant harm to those involved. Both rely on persuasion, deception, and manipulation to recruit and retain members or victims, and both may use tactics such as secrecy, isolation, propaganda, and financial incentives to maintain control. Both may also use charismatic leaders to gain followers or victims, and both may exploit the trust and loyalty of those involved for personal gain. Both may cause significant harm to members or victims, including financial ruin and emotional trauma. It is important to be aware of the warning signs of these types of groups or schemes and to protect oneself from becoming a victim.

There are several parallels between religious cults and people who run Ponzi schemes:

1) 00:24:30 Both rely on persuasion and manipulation to recruit and retain members/victims.
2) 00:30:30 Both often use charismatic leaders to gain followers/victims.
3) 00:38:10 Both may use secrecy and isolation to control members/victims and prevent them from leaving or speaking out.
4) 00:48:30 Both may use propaganda and misinformation to maintain the loyalty of members/victims.
5) 00:50:51 Both may use financial incentives to recruit and retain members/victims.
6) 00:58:37 Both may use threats and intimidation to silence dissent and maintain control.
7) 01:01:15 Both may prey on vulnerable individuals, such as those who are financially or emotionally distressed.
8) 01:07:30 Both may use a sense of community or belonging to keep members/victims committed.
9) 01:11:00 Both may exploit the trust and loyalty of members/victims for personal gain.
10) 01:22:00 Both may cause significant harm to members/victims, including financial ruin and emotional trauma.
11) 01:27:10 Both may use the guise of a legitimate organisation or cause to mask their true intentions.
12) 01:31:34 Both may use techniques such as hypnosis or brainwashing to control members/victims.
13) 01:37:20 Both may use group pressure and peer influence to coerce members/victims into compliance.
14) 01:40:00 Both may use rewards and punishments to control behaviour and maintain loyalty.
15) 01:42:15 Both may use emotional appeals and appeals to higher ideals to justify their actions.
16) 01:44:00 Both may use the promise of a better future or a utopian vision to attract and retain members/victims.
17) 01:47:50 Both may use fear and anxiety to control and manipulate members/victims.
18) 01:49:15 Both may use legal and financial tactics to intimidate and silence dissent.
19) 01:53:00 Both may use deceptive and manipulative language to mislead and deceive members/victims.
20) 01:54:46 Both may engage in unethical and illegal activities to further their goals and protect their interests.

Conclusion 01:59:00

There are several modern day cults that have gained significant attention in recent years, including the Jehovah’s Witnesses. Jehovah’s Witnesses are a religious group known for their strict adherence to the teachings of the Bible and their aggressive evangelising efforts.

I’ve been watching the antics of Carl Haavaldsen for months. Carl doesn’t care about anyone except himself, he openly professors to promoting Ponzi schemes, claiming to have made $4500 a day out of HyperVerse.

He has been in network marketing for over 42 years and in the Crypto industry for 9 years, proudly sharing his journey with his followers to entrap them in the get rich quick investment opportunities he promotes;  Ultron, NovatechFX, MacroGold, WippoFund, Pegasus and Everything Hyper and now HyperCosmos!

When I saw this video of him explaining how everyone had lost their money in HyperVerse and boldly stating the only way they could get any money back, was by recruiting people into HyperCosmos, this outraged the HyperCommunity. I believe this destroys what’s left of the people who follow all the hyper Ponzi schemes.

This is also a condemning video which I will do my best to give to newspapers in Canada showing help latently this guy is promoting Ponzi schemes. Watch the Original Video on my Odyssey account at https://odysee.com/@dehek:6/2022-12-08-Hyper-Cosmos-Full-Explanation-on-how-it-works.mp4 In this video he alleges “100% clarity of exactly what’s happening with HyperCosmos” he also has requested the video to be removed from YouTube and has removed the video from his own private Vimeo account.

Thank you for pressing play and listening to my video. I got to be in the New York Times. I got a whole page on Danny de Hek busting Ponzi scheme that they called me the Crypto Ponzi Scheme. Avenger, what a name. And that means I’ve actually gained some followers while people who subscribe to my YouTube channel.

[00:00:25] Danny de Hek: So thank you so much. If you’re one of those people, and you may not have seen my videos before, I record them like I’m live streaming. And then I upload them later on. I don’t like editing much. I’m also dyslexic. So if you read my show notes and look at the timestamps, cuz you might wanna jump forward to the part you wanna watch, then you might find some spelling mistakes.

[00:00:47] Danny de Hek: And I really love people who comment on my videos. It’s your your choice. You can comment on this video and tell me what you think and if you hit the thumbs up button that tells YouTube you like my videos and it sends it out to the masses.

Contemplating Suicide? Understanding & Preventing Suicide Are you a HyperNation Ponzi Scheme Victim! Contemplating Suicide? Understanding & Preventing Suicide Host DANNY : DE HEK Guest MICHAEL HEMPSEED

[00:00:00] DANNY : DE HEK: Are you a Ponzi scheme victim? Are you contemplating suicide? That question has proven to be a lifesaver. If you have a friend or a family member who may be isolated, who you know that is involved in crypto opportunities, the best question you could ask them right now with all the doom and gloom that’s going on in the crypto.

[00:00:29] DANNY : DE HEK: Is, are you contemplating suicide? What do you do if somebody comes back and says, Yes, I am today’s Tube Cast and podcast. I have a guest speaker by the name of Michael Hemps Seed, and he talks about his experience in helping people who have mental illness. He’s an author of a book called Being a True Hero, Understanding and Preventing Suicide in our Community.

[00:01:01] DANNY : DE HEK: He’s also a 10 x speaker and he’s willing to help people over Zoom who reach out to him, and he will give you some practical advice that you may be able to give to a friend or reach out to him if you do have those thoughts. He’s willing to help. There’s so many pyramid schemes, multi-level marketing opportunities, Ponzi schemes, and online scam.

[00:01:27] DANNY : DE HEK: Going around at the moment and people around the globe are getting scammed out of billions of dollars. Have you ever thought about where that money is actually coming from? The demographics of people that are being scammed is actually 50 and above going by my research. They get involved in these Zoom meetings.

[00:01:51] DANNY : DE HEK: They listen to people’s stories who are investing hundreds of thousands of dollars. And telling people how wonderful it is and how they’re getting their return on their investment. They’re preaching a message of doom and gloom, telling people that pensions are not safe. I have personally interviewed two people that have taken all of their pension funds out and put it into HyperVerse being told that within 600 days they’re going to get three times their.

[00:02:24] DANNY : DE HEK: When I first started doing these videos exposing Ponzi schemes, I thought people were greedy. I thought, Did you really think that people were gonna get three or four times their return on their investment in such a short period of time? But when I interviewed these people that were about to retire and they tell me their stories, I realized that.

[00:02:52] DANNY : DE HEK: Had been fooled. If so, if you are a victim, don’t feel that you were silly. A lot of people will not talk to me about their losing their them losing their investment. In fact, they clamber, they keep it to themselves. They isolate themselves. Often they’re widowed or widowers, and they’ve literally lost their life savings.

[00:03:20] DANNY : DE HEK: They are home alone. And that’s why we need to, as a community, reach out to these people and maybe ask them that very question, Are you contemplating suicide? I have asked multiple people that question, and it has always turned out for the better. No one has ever told me off for asking such a personal question.

Fraud Recovery Strategy Explained "Crypto Money Laundering" Been Scammed by your HyperVerse Sponsor? Fraud Recovery Strategy Explained The commission structure (Community Reward)

Level 1

If “DANNY” put $1000 in and introduces “MARY” who also puts $1000 in, “DANNY” is going to get 20% of “MARY’S” $1000. This equates to $200 or $600 after 600 days, this is called compounding. So if “DANNY” recruits three people he will receive $5400 in 20 months.

Level 2

If “MARY” then introduced “STEVE”, who also invests $1000, then “DANNY” will get 15% and “MARY” will get 20%. So if “DANNY” recruits nine people he will receive $12,150  in 20 months.

Level 3

If “STEVE’S” friend “PIXEL” invests $1000, then “DANNY” will get 10%, “MARY” will get 15% and “STEVE” will get 20%. So if “DANNY” recruits twenty-seven people he will receive $24,300 in 20 months.

Just using the formula above shows this is unsustainable to survive financially, unless someone like Ryan Xu has got money to burn and wants to build a community of influences that rave about his EcoSystem concepts that he's going to build in the MetaVerse.

So what happened to HyperVerse? Well basically all of 2022 wasn't sustainable to keep paying people out, however people who still had all the HU sitting in the backend of HyperVerse.

The sponsors decided that they could still recruit and they could set up the accounts for new people. So when a new investor comes along and wants to get involved in the opportunity, these sponsors were saying they would help with the process.

Do you remember when people were gifting free HyperVerse memberships? This was part of the same strategy, people didn't need to pay anything back to the sponsor until they made the initial membership fee back. Because they couldn't do anything with the HU, however they could purchase accounts for friends and family.

The new investors were given a wallet address to send the USDT to, however it wasn’t going to HyperVerse! It was going to the sponsors wallet address.

If “STEVE’S” friend “PIXEL” invests $1000, then “DANNY” will get 10%, “MARY” will get 15% and “STEVE” will get 20%. So if “DANNY” recruits twenty-seven people he will receive $24,300 in 20 months.

Just using the formula above shows this is unsustainable to survive financially, unless someone like Ryan Xu has got money to burn and wants to build a community of influences that rave about his EcoSystem concepts that he's going to build in the MetaVerse.

So what happened to HyperVerse? Well basically all of 2022 wasn't sustainable to keep paying people out, however people who still had all the HU sitting in the backend of HyperVerse.

The sponsors decided that they could still recruit and they could set up the accounts for new people. So when a new investor comes along and wants to get involved in the opportunity, these sponsors were saying they would help with the process.

Do you remember when people were gifting free HyperVerse memberships? This was part of the same strategy, people didn't need to pay anything back to the sponsor until they made the initial membership fee back. Because they couldn't do anything with the HU, however they could purchase accounts for friends and family.

The new investors were given a wallet address to send the USDT to, however it wasn’t going to HyperVerse! It was going to the sponsors wallet address.

It's impossible for that to happen, HyperNation doesn't want anything to do with the debt of HyperVerse it is a different entity. As Whitney Smart says HyperFund, HyperVerse and HyperNation are all hedge funds and all under the same umbrella as Hypertech group.

HyperNation has stolen the sales team stripped HyperVerse of all its assets they are now doing a rinse and repeat with HyperNation.

Who owns HyperVerse & HyperNation? Start Legal Action to recover your Crypto! Hello welcome. You're listening to the WHAT : DE HEK Podcast, or you may be watching the Danny de Hek YouTube channel. Have you been scammed by HyperVerse? Do you know what HyperVerse is? Do you know who owns HyperVerse or hibernation? Well, there's a lot of people out there at the moment. They, you want to take legal action.

Against the company. It's a Ponzi scheme. It's not even really a company, even though they did start from a company called HyperTech group, they don't actually have any company. So the company founders were, what we've been told were actually two people. And that was Ryan Xu in Sam Lee. so recently I've been hanging out on Telegram something.

I didn't think I'd actually ever be doing. I actually hated the program, but now I've found myself an admin in a group called HyperVerse Lawsuit. And the people that are in the group, it's only about 500 people. They actually want to take. Legal action against this Ponzi scheme. And I keep upsetting people.

Now, if you have invested in a Ponzi scheme and you have realized that you've actually lost your money, it can be a pretty hard pill to swallow. And I don't want to be responsible for people's mental health because it's can be devastating when you lose money. So if you are feeling. Um, down and you don't know who to talk to reach out to a neighbor or a close friend and, uh, tell them how you're feeling and get some help if you are feeling down, because it's not a nice thing when somebody told you something that was technically too good to be true.

And then you find out it's not true. So these two people, Ryan and Sam, they do have a history of being involved in crypto companies. But my feeling is unless the world unites and we all start working as one entity, it's a very hard thing to put together a lawsuit that can actually do any good. And I honestly believe that these two people are either already in a Chinese prison.

Some. or hiding and will never be able to get them, but because this Ponzi scheme has actually grown. Since 2019, it started off as, uh, HyperCapital and then they rebranded to HyperFund. And then in December, this year, it changed to HyperVerse. And then just on the 22nd of August, they're still going, they've changed it to HyperNation.

Marc Gardiner (AU) Vs Danny de Hek (NZ) - Is HyperNation a Scam or Legitimate? Hello, I’m Danny de Hek and I’m your saviour from HyperNation. If you’ve been watching my videos, you will see, I did a video like that. Trying to warn people from HyperVerse. I thought it would be good. To go down memory lane. I don’t want you to go to the EcoSystem. I don’t want you to prepare yourself for the new digital world.

[00:00:28] I want you to come on a journey with me through my videos. I did about four months ago. I had this smashing interview. With one of my Australian friends called Mark Gardner. And he was an advocate for HyperVerse. He was convinced that HyperVerse, we’re gonna build his future for him. And even his brother.

[00:00:57] He had invested $5,000 and he was getting $140 a day of rewards. And he was rebuying and taking the money out. He had two accounts and he was worried that I was going to Doman to the leaders. At HyperVerse like I had inside knowledge that no one else did a hotline or a telephone where I could communicate with them.

[00:01:25] I would be the only person on planet earth who could do that. If this was the case. If you have not been following the journey of HyperVerse HyperNation averse, HyperNation color star. Group tech, whatever tech group, whatever. There’s so many different brands. And now they’ve recently rebred to HyperNation.

[00:01:47] So I did the decent thing and I thought I’ll reach out to mark and say, Hey mark, please listen to me. This time. Don’t invest in HyperNation. Don’t buy one of those NFTs who don’t need one. You’ll be fine. Living on earth without an NFT. You’ll be okay. Trust Danny. Ah, that was funny. I really enjoyed doing that.

[00:02:13] Actually. I was sort of wondering how that was gonna go, but you know, you, you try doing these things and. you just think, am I gonna come across as an idiot? You know, it was one of the things I did when I did this Video with Mark Gardner. Now he’s an Aussie and I did have the Australian national Anthem ready to go, but I’ve lost it.

And he was an advocate for HyperVerse. He was convinced that HyperVerse, we’re gonna build his future for him. And even his brother.

[00:00:57] He had invested $5,000 and he was getting $140 a day of rewards. And he was rebuying and taking the money out. He had two accounts and he was worried that I was going to Doman to the leaders. At HyperVerse like I had inside knowledge that no one else did a hotline or a telephone where I could communicate with them.

[00:01:25] I would be the only person on planet earth who could do that. If this was the case. If you have not been following the journey of HyperVerse HyperNation averse, HyperNation color star. Group tech, whatever tech group, whatever. There’s so many different brands. And now they’ve recently rebred to HyperNation.

[00:01:47] So I did the decent thing and I thought I’ll reach out to mark and say, Hey mark, please listen to me. This time. Don’t invest in HyperNation. Don’t buy one of those NFTs who don’t need one. You’ll be fine. Living on earth without an NFT. You’ll be okay. Trust Danny. Ah, that was funny. I really enjoyed doing that.

[00:02:13] Actually. I was sort of wondering how that was gonna go, but you know, you, you try doing these things and. you just think, am I gonna come across as an idiot? You know, it was one of the things I did when I did this Video with Mark Gardner. Now he’s an Aussie and I did have the Australian national Anthem ready to go, but I’ve lost it.

[00:00:00] Hey you doing it’s Danny de Hek from the WHAT : DE HEK Podcast. Thanks for tuning in and listening to my podcast, got quite a lot of things to talk about today. I’ve got some facts on a review and use some common sense logic with you when using some reasoning. Now, the federal bank in America has just increased the lending rates, which will probably push America into a recession.

[00:00:29] And I have a YouTube Channel, which you may be aware of and what I’ve been doing. I’ve been busting a lot of crypto scams as they pop their ugly heads out of the internet and mislead people with lots of stories. And one of those companies that I’ve been spending a lot of my time and energy on is one called HyperVerse.

[00:00:51] And just recently it’s fallen over and there’s a lot of excuses out there on why. Pioneer and the rewards that are promised to the loyal members or the community after listening to one of the membership leadership videos. One of the thing was discussed a couple of weeks ago was about looking at the facts and reviewing the things that had actually happened with that company and seeing where they are at right now.

[00:01:21] If you’re not familiar with my YouTube Channel would recommend go into dehek.com and checking it out. One of my mates, Vinny, he’s got a YouTube channel called Project Frugal. Now he’s done a lot of research and he’s actually produced six videos of all the different stages that HyperVerse has gone through.

[00:01:43] And I’d recommend checking it out. His YouTube channel is actually called Project Frugal. And if you go to the first one, he starts from the humble beginnings and he actually looks at Ryan, uh, sorry, Ryan, you, and where he originates from and where he began his crusade, because a lot of the hype that’s going on about HyperTech is using Sam Lee and Ryan Xu.

[00:02:14] And about their background and their experience in crypto mining. But you may be surprised when the research is done properly. The origins of these guys, isn’t what they have been under the spotlight is. And I’m just going to play a little bit of in the market. As part of the HyperTech group is Ryan Xu, Chinese national.

What’s my background, how long have you got? My claim to fame – I started the first Internet cafe in Christchurch with a friend back in 1995 it was called The Email Centre on Worcester Boulevard.

People who used to come and use our cyber services taught me how the Internet worked, looking back it was enough to make me dangerous. At that time my expertise was getting people with computers onto the Internet and teaching them how to surf the world wide web.

After 12 months I gained enough knowledge simply by looking over peoples shoulders, asking questions and seeing what others were using the Internet for. I learnt to be able to set up a basic website.

A simple explanation about the mechanics of HyperVerse for the poor people.

Let’s pretend HyperVerse is a casino.

It’s got flashy lights on the outside and lots of advertisements enticing you to come on in and have a play.

It’s themed as an EcoSystem a Virtual MetaVerse, all the artwork is stolen but you don’t realise this at the time and it looks good.

Some of the signs that you see, say if you come in you’re guaranteed to win three or four times your money.

Not only that but the people coming out the doors of the casino are laughing with tears of joy because they have had such a fantastic experience.

So you decide you want to go and have a flutter. But to get in the casino doors, you need to acquire a membership.

Let’s just say you can get different levels of memberships: 400, 800, 1200 and 3600

The HyperVerse Membership will give you credits and benefits that you can only use in the casino once you have been there for a long time.

You go to pay and they tell you the only way you can purchase one of the memberships is by using USDT crypto!

Maybe you are a bit dubious using crypto to purchase something, but you are familiar with gambling so you feel good about it all.

They recommend you go down to your local crypto exchange, which is partly owned by one of the casino owners and purchase some USDT on your credit card and to come back once you’ve done this.

Once you’ve figured out how to do that, you’re probably thinking you’re pretty savvy and a crypto genius. Of course this does build your confidence, now you have earned the right to go into the casino.

So when you’re in the casino there’s a lot of people having a good time, it’s a real community. Long term VIP members come and sit right next to you and they say, “do you have any friends or family that you could invite to come down and enjoy the experience of the Casino with you?”

They also explain that if you do this, you’ll get rewarded by the casino.

These people sitting next to you will give you some suggestions on what to say, they will train you because they want everyone to be a winner at this casino.

They say, “Don’t worry if you don’t know what to say when you get stuck explaining how it works, just give me the phone and I’ll explain it to them for you.”

Now you’ve got friends and family around you playing at the casino and you’ve had enough, you’ve tripled your investment and you haven’t even really done anything. It’s so good, let’s go to the casher and take some money out.

You start asking other people how to take rewards out. They say “are you leaving?”They encourage you to reinvest into the casino for greater rewards. They explain that you can only take 00.5% of your reward each day, and the casino frowns on this if you do it too often.

They smile at you, and say you’re part of the HyperCasino Community. It’s just like Hotel California, you can check-in but you can never check-out.

So now you decide to start doing a bit of due diligence. You start searching the Internet for answers and you find this guy called Danny de Hek.

This is my weekly podcast that I do every six weeks. Thank you for tuning in to my Podcast, my YouTube Channel and visiting my Website.

Two Disclaimers.

  1. I am dyslexic, don’t expect perfection when reading my show notes. I struggle with pronunciation and I will be using text to voice.

10 Reasons why people are telling me HyperVerse is REAL and NOT a Ponzi Scheme or Scamming Billions

Let’s explain what’s up for grabs. Membership 2.0 welcomes you to invest from US$400 with promised daily rewards of 00.5% = $2 daily. If you let that compile within 200 days will get $400 return on your investment and the next 400 days is all profit. After that you have a choice, reinvest your rewards to another higher level or stop. You can never take out your initial investment, US$400, you can only withdrawal rewards (if you are lucky). Basically you are loaning your money to HyperVerse to pay your own rewards. You also receive 20% commission and many other rewards from people that you recruit and this goes on to your HyperVerse account that you can never withdraw, you can only collect rewards.

If you get this return on your investment you deserve it, because you’ve invested wisely. It seems that the people that have got into HyperVerse are now like in a religious cult and have turned into HyperZombies.

They are convinced that the world is flat and some of the reasoning is starting to be quite repetitive, just like they’re being brainwashed.

I have put together “10 Reasons why people are telling me HyperVerse is REAL and NOT a Ponzi Scheme or Scamming Billions.

  1. It’s not a scam because I get money out of it [02:56]
  2. I haven’t researched the company and I don’t know what I’m talking about [04:55]
  3. “If it were a scam it would have been been shut down by now". [07:50]
  4. I’m doing really well I’ve made lots of money so it’s not a scam. [10:23]
  5. The founders, Sam Lee and Ryan Xu, are successful business people worth billions [13:30]
  6. An acquaintance approached me with the offer to "gift" me and each of my kids a "buy in". [16:14]
  7. I need to stop this nonsense and get a job [18:14]
  8. HyperVerse General Disclaimer [20:43]
  9. You're only limitation is your imagination [25:08]
  10. They are doing upgrades, this is why we can't withdraw at the moment [27:10]

Disfellowshipping someone after a dramatic life event and shunning them from their family and friends in a time of need is a common practice in the Jehovah’s Witness faith. I believe this is a contributing factor as to why so many people die from suicide after disassociating themselves, getting disfellowshipped or have not been able to live up to the high standards that Jehovah’s Witnesses are expected to do.

The detrimental effects of suicide on family members are normally not discussed. Instead, many focus on the person who died and what got them to the point of suicide. No one, or no organisation is held accountable for what drove a person to do such a thing.

My sister and I were brought up as Jehovah’s Witnesses; I was baptised, from memory my sister was an unbaptised publisher. My solo mum, who still loves the religion more than me, will undoubtably continue her Jehovah’s Witness path until she dies. She loves Jehovah with ALL her might.

One day, two Jehovah’s Witnesses knocked on her door, they left a watchtower publication, which she took out of politeness. The next week when she saw them coming up the drive, she had a cunning plan where she thought she would crouch down so they couldn’t see her. However, they caught her through the window, so she had to open the door and said she had a bad back, she couldn’t stand up and couldn’t talk at the moment! The persistence of the two Jehovah’s Witnesses who initially knocked on our door managed to strike up a Bible study with her and the rest was history. This was something our family thought was quite humorous for years.

My mum was in a terrible state; her ex-husband was an alcoholic, he left us when I was 2 1/2 years of age. While we never went without, there was no doubt we were poor and mum was struggling. When a group of people showed love and compassion and gave my mother a community, she certainly jumped at the chance to become part of the world wide brotherhood.

I hope you can empathise with me as this is truly one of the most personal experiences to publicly post on my BLOG, broadcast on the WHAT: DE HEK PODCAST and stream on my YOUTUBE channel ‘but what the Hek’.

My sister and I were brought up as Jehovah’s Witnesses; I was baptised, from memory my sister was an unbaptised publisher. My solo mum, who still loves the religion more than me, will undoubtably continue her Jehovah’s Witness path until she dies. She loves Jehovah with ALL her might.

One day, two Jehovah’s Witnesses knocked on her door, they left a watchtower publication, which she took out of politeness. The next week when she saw them coming up the drive, she had a cunning plan where she thought she would crouch down so they couldn’t see her. However, they caught her through the window, so she had to open the door and said she had a bad back, she couldn’t stand up and couldn’t talk at the moment! The persistence of the two Jehovah’s Witnesses who initially knocked on our door managed to strike up a Bible study with her and the rest was history. This was something our family thought was quite humorous for years.

My mum was in a terrible state; her ex-husband was an alcoholic, he left us when I was 2 1/2 years of age. While we never went without, there was no doubt we were poor and mum was struggling. When a group of people showed love and compassion and gave my mother a community, she certainly jumped at the chance to become part of the world wide brotherhood.

I hope you can empathise with me as this is truly one of the most personal experiences to publicly post on my BLOG, broadcast on the WHAT: DE HEK PODCAST and stream on my YOUTUBE channel ‘but what the Hek’.

That’s how I feel when I wake up on a Sunday morning imagine living your life like it was Sunday everyday. Do you think you would accomplish as much as you do if the reality was, every day is Sunday?

I’ve been self-employed for over 25 years and I’ve always said I don’t really feel like I’m working because I’m doing stuff I’m passionate about. That is what it’s all about really, when you find yourself working on a Sunday, not realising you actually are being productive and making money. There’s no such thing as Sunday-itis in my life!

Covid has certainly made us think differently, especially in the way that we work. A high percentage of us are now working from our homes, so distinguishing the difference between work and life is becoming more and more difficult. We all learn from each, other some people struggle with working from home, but I struggle working from an office.

Some of the advantages of working from home:

  • You don’t need to pre-prepare lunch
  • You save money on office rental
  • You can claim some of your expenses
  • You can justify a coffee machine
  • The office commute is merely footsteps

Some of the disadvantages of working from home:

  • Cabin fever
  • Motivation
  • No sense of direction
  • Human contact
  • Working all hours

If you haven’t been keeping up with current events, I own an electronics store called NZ : ELECTRONICS

Recently dubious people decided to start up a Facebook page called Electronics NZ and target New Zealanders with an unbelievable offer.

On the Facebook Page Kiwi’s can enter a competition to win a FREE Dyson V11, the good news is everybody is a winner! Reminds me of Oprah Winfrey “you get a new vacuum cleaner” and “you get a new vacuum cleaner” everyone gets a new vacuum cleaner!

You may have seen this post on Facebook…

“Dyson is selling the rest of Dyson Cyclone V11 for $3! Dyson Vacuum for $3⏳ Hurry to get it just by filling out the form! Distributed by Dyson™”


*The pigeon English should be a dead giveaway. If this message is from Dyson, why isn’t it on Dyson’s official Facebook page. The reason they are flogging the Dyson name is because they are trying to build up authenticity with you. This should be sending off alarm bells in your brain.

Last time I looked there was 3.7k comments and the post had been shared 226 times. You can read people‘s comments and “people” are posting photos of the Dyson Cyclone V11 they have received.

These are not genuine people, these are all part of the scammers plot, fake accounts, images that if you search Google for you will see they have been used on other posts, not the real deal.

The Electronics NZ Facebook page admin(s) is removing all the negative comments and only allowing positive comments and feedback to go on their page. Another way to scam people as they only see good reviews and they are building a relationship with your mind saying this is authentic when it is not!

Here is where you need to pay attention, for delivery you need to pay $2 and they ask you to enter all your personal details. You agree to the terms and conditions and let's be honest, no one ever reads these terms anyway. Then of course you have built enough confidence to submit your precious credit card details.

What in fact you have actually done, is allowed them to charge your credit card at leisure. The terms and conditions that you didn't take the time to read and you have agreed to, means you have signed up to other sites like, dating sites, casinos etc. This may not happen immediately, but if you don't stop your credit card, these charges will appear every month. Plus not to freak you out even more, I think you've just given them your personal address as well.

This is the place where I share my experience, knowledge and skills.

I’ve been playing around trying to get the right setup for the last few months and I finally feel I’m getting some traction. I am a podcaster and an online educator that provides workshops to help people survive and thrive in business, I would like to share my journey with you.

This all started about two years ago when I wanted to record a group of people, in a business networking event, so I could produce a podcast.

I’ve always been a bit of a tech head, any software or hardware that is going to make me more productive and look more professional, I’m in. I’ll go and purchase it on my credit card and worry about paying for it later.

The problem with being able to record video, and broadcast, is there are so many options available and so many different variables, that you really have to find your own way to get it going correctly. So in saying that, my journey may not be your journey, but I am absolutely sure you will gain a lot of knowledge by reading or listening to this article.

A good of friend of mine, Rob Woolley, is currently trying to set himself up as a YouTube educator. He has also been going through some of the trials and tribulations that I experienced at the start, all due respect to Rob, he likes doing things on a budget. He was having problems setting up his green screen and I received this message from him, “I've officially given up on getting green screen perfect, so I'm going to paint my wall as a backdrop I think”. I’ll be honest, his message inspired me to write this blog.

There is no right way and there’s no wrong way of achieving your setup, just remember be good today, rather than perfect tomorrow, because tomorrow never comes.

To make this a little bit more logical I think it would be best if I break this into different sections; sound recorder, microphones, green screens, lighting, camera equipment, editing and streaming. One thing I never do with my blogs is add images within the content, however I’m going to make an exception for this post.

1) Sound Recorder

So as I said originally, I wanted to record 20 people in a room when I was running a think tank meeting for my business networking company. I did some searching and I read some good reviews about a recording device called a “ZOOM H6”. The reason I went with this, is that it would enable me to run four microphones simultaneously, as well as an additional two microphones that come with the unit. It can be powered with a USB charger, so it was an ideal unit, it was mobile and recorded brilliant sound. It has served me well. I used it for at least 12 months and I still have it, just in case I start doing more mobile interviews. It has a lovely compact carry case too.

I started hanging out on a social audio app called Clubhouse. When talking to other podcasters, the industry standard and the unit that you want to get, is a RØDECaster Pro. Funnily enough, this would not be my recommendation if you want to be mobile. However, since I’ve had the RØDECaster Pro, I’ve never used my ZOOM H6 again. Recently I switched my recording hardware to the ZOOM PodTrak P8, as this is also a mobile unit and also a desktop sound recorder. I now get the best of both worlds and I love it. I believe it’s the best piece of hardware on the market today, especially if your main focus is podcasting.

[00:00:25] Hello, I'm Danny de Hek. And this is WHAT : DE HEK podcast. I'm facilitating my own meeting today and this is what I call one of my personal rant podcasts. Now, I don't know if you subscribe to my channel, but you may have noticed I haven't actually done any podcasts in for quite some time. I discovered an app called clubhouse and I learned so much about podcasting.

[00:00:25] I had to upgrade my gear and go through a whole learning process once again. And I want to share the journey of becoming a podcaster with you. So if you were like me, you probably have a laptop and you're probably thinking I could become a podcaster. I can just get a microphone and start recording. Wow.

[00:00:45] Have I got news for you? Now my journey started by listening to other podcasts and finding the right gear. So today what I'd like to do is just run through some of the gear that I've had, um, that I recommend that I have found good for me. First thing you would probably need, if you were getting into podcasting is maybe a microphone.

[00:01:11] Now what I'm going to do, I'm just going to flip into a web browser and I'm going to show you the microphones that I use. This is what you call an auto auto microphone, which is a BP40. Now I stumbled across these microphones because originally when I was getting into podcasts, I was trying to record a group of 15 people in a room.

[00:01:36] And I got a blue Yeti mic. If you ever have one of those and this you're a musician, well, you've got yourself set up in a perfectly sound balanced room. Do not use a blue Yeti mic, just my opinion. Fall on your feet and get yourself a dynamic microphone, diabetes. I actually got two of these microphones and I'll just get my head out of it.

[00:01:55] Uh, and I had them in a room that was shaped like a horseshoe and I put two, these one each end of the room and it did capture the sound pretty good. However, it probably, um, wasn't even the right title of area was space to be able to record a podcast COVID Cape. And I cut it all my gear back home. And at the time I was using an app.

[00:02:21] Six by zoom, which is a recording device, and that was adequate for myself. But when I started wanting to record other people who were online, like, um, recording things over zoom or river, Riverside.fm, or, um, Zencastr, or, uh, stream labs or stream yard at the camera, a whole different complicated stuff.

[00:02:46] Sorry. First of all, what I did is I went out and got myself a RØDECaster Pro, and I'm just going to get the ball. Ooh, the box. Okay. Yeah, I wrote RØDECasters are absolutely awesome. Now the theory, first, one of these I've got, we'll just put it back on the floor. I got up home from the shop and I put it on the counter and it was buckled and every time I pushed the button.

There's no doubt about that. And I said, well, I can't, I haven't kept the receipt and I was running. If you going to do anything about it, they said, leave it with me and I'll get. A manager to a ring, you know that. Okay. So I went out of the shop H went back half an hour later. Cause I said, I do remember, I think I paid cash just to let you know, anyway, went along three or four days, nothing happened.

So I rang up the shop and I said, hi, I'm Danny, the guy with the belt. Do you remember me? And they said, yes, we've got your belt right here. And it's, you know, we'll get the manager to ring you. So we did another two or three days and nothing happened. So I finished up going back into the shelf and they said, well, we tried to ring you.

But your phone number wouldn't work. So I said, if you've got the piece of paper that my phone number was on, they showed me it. And I said, well, that is my number. I don't know why it didn't work. Anyway. They said, look, can we count, find you in our system? Uh, and you, haven't got a receipt. We're willing to give you a discount on a new belt, but we're not going to replace the belt.

And I mean, okay. I said, I understand about having the receipt and that's my bad. I should keep all my receipts in social use. So you can go back to the shop. Because they don't have to, um, issue you a refund because of that. However, I said, but you're still selling these belts and they don't look like they are very good.

I'm in the process of doing a whole lot of new workshops.

And the idea behind it, as I used to do 15 minutes, sort of a little week workshops, teaching people, some of the stuff I've learned over the years.

So I've been doing website development and also eco stuff for about, I dunno, maybe too long, over 20 years, at least. And this was one of my favorites. So before I revitalize it and make it more modern, I thought it would be worthwhile while documenting this as a YouTube video. And it may give you a bit of understanding how it works.

So let's get into it. I'll just flip into a work browser. And this was my PowerPoint presentation and that's called a SEO tips and advice by Danny de Hek who is me so often when I'm talking to people. Typical, isn't it. As we talk about SEO search engine optimization, and there's so many facets to it, I actually liken it to imagine that you have one glass.

Full of water. So for example, you could actually have a really good URL that identifies your brand or your business, and that would be equivalent to having one glass of water fall. You may also have some really good titles with the content that you put on the internet. You may also have ALT tags and all your images.

You may also have file names named correctly. And along with that, you may even have a well structured website that are search engine friendly, but by just having one good glass full of water, isn't really going to cut the mustard. Do you need to have a well balanced website? And that's why I put together this PowerPoint presentation.

What is the distinct, oops, what is the distinction between feeling good in business and not feeling good? What makes you feel good in business, Mike?

DANNY : DE HEK: [00:01:19] And she's brilliant. She told me yesterday that she had 750 downloads and has generated around about $200 from her podcasting efforts to date.

And I thought, well, you can do my marketing for me. If you have accomplished that. And being blind, we were talking to the clubhouse room and we still are.

And I said, I had this format for my podcast. It works and it's 12 random questions and I have a sort of like a pack of cards and I shuffle it and I just picked 12 random questions and I asked.

I'll ask Ann and I'll ask Theresa to answer the version of the question. So let's go for the first one. The first question here we have today is what was the most unusual thing you had ever eaten? Theresa? Would you like to tell everyone what's the most unusual thing you've eaten as a blind person?

Welcome to WHAT : DE HEK podcast I'm privileged to have in front of me is Jay the Comedian.

Jay Scott 0:07
Hey, what's up everybody how y'all doing?

Danny de Hek 0:09
He has volunteers time to answer the top of my lame questions. Let's see how we get on. We're straight into the questions by the way. Okay. Okay, here's the first one, mate. Have you ever had a nickname?

Jay Scott 0:24
Have I ever had a nickname? I actually did have a nickname and it's really funny because I'm an Ex-Jehovah’s Witness. But people used to call me J Dub, but not because of the Jehovah Witness. I was really good at basketball. And in America, when you score two points, two points is called a dub. And my name is Jay. So people call me J Dub on the basketball court, though, only on the basketball court, nowhere else.

Danny de Hek 0:53
When I was looking at your Facebook page, you'll notice you've got lots of clips on Facebook, about a thing called basketball.

Jay Scott 1:00
Oh, yeah, basketball. I love basketball. I love playing it. And this is one of my joys of my life.

Danny de Hek 1:06
Because I've got one Kiwi guy that's actually really good at the moment. I don't know. I don't follow the basketball. But do you know who he who he is?

Jay Scott 1:14
A Kiwi guy.

Danny de Hek 1:17
He's massive name. Well, they're all massive ah they. But he's

Jay Scott 1:19
I don't know any small basketball players.

Danny de Hek 1:23
That's as far as my basketball knowledge goes, so I'll get on to the next question. We've got 12 questions. What's the biggest gift that you've ever been gift? What was the best gift you've ever been given?

Danny de Hek 0:00
We have a good crew with us today and thank you for coming along, we have a think tank topic called “Creating Lasting Business Habits”. And I think we’d all agree that it’s pretty easy to create a habit, but having one that sticks with you and becomes a business habit is probably one of the harder ones to adopt.

So we’re gonna break that meeting into four parts, we’re going to talk about people’s experiences of trying to create lasting habits, problems they face. And then we’re going to discuss some solutions. And hopefully at the end of the meeting, which will be in about 30 minutes, some takeaways, and then we’ll come up with next week’s topic. However, I’d just like to do a quick introduction of who’s in the room so our listeners can figure that out. And I’m going to start the top left of my screen, which I don’t know about you guys, but I’ve got Laughlin in this box. Yes. Who are you Laughlin?

Lachlan McNeill 1:03
I’m Laughlin surprisingly enough. I’m a recruiter, recruitment and careers. And there’s also quite a few other things as well. But I specialise in technical careers, which is engineers, architects, project managers and construction.

Danny de Hek 1:18
That sounds exciting. And Helen, who’s right next to me

Helen Oakes 1:21
I’m, I’m Helen I’m a photographer, and I mainly specialise in sports photography. Also do portraits and landscapes and I sell my art prints.

Danny de Hek 1:31
There you go and Paul

Paul Starling 1:35
I run Canterbury Computers out of Rangiora. We look at the home users and small businesses also a Microsoft Partner.

Danny de Hek 1:46
Microsoft, my favourite friends. Excellent. Shaun, why don’t you live and you’re not being? breakfast? Shawn?

Shaun Jin 1:56
Me? Oh, yeah. Oh, Sean from Quality Clean. Once stop service, property services improve. And we focused on pest controls. And then we also do healthy home checks recently.

Danny de Hek 2:16
I try to show you during, yeah, what do they call healthy home checks? Yeah, that’s pretty cool. We had somebody come and do as I say, David Clarkson.

David Clarkson 2:24
Hi I am David Clarkson? From dynamic communication. We’re in the communication business, we build more confident, more competent, more credible communicators.

Yeah, sounds like tinnitus, and we decided that we would talk about being Fit for Business. So if you haven't been to a think tank meeting before, we normally pick a topic chosen from the week previous. And then we discuss it in four parts. And the four parts are people explaining their experiences, problems, come up with some solutions. And then hopefully, at the end of the meeting, we come up with some takeaways, and then we spend about three minutes coming up with a topic.

However, in the meantime, I thought make a interesting blog, and also a podcast. So Helen is my partner. And she has just recently started using Blog2Social good persons, you’ve probably got a good understanding of what she was trying to accomplish, and are sort of taking it to another level. So they’ve given us this questionnaire, they’ve got quite a few questions. So rather than bore you guys with more intro, let’s get Helen is going to ask me the questions, and I’m gonna see how I do when answering them.

Danny de Hek 1:36
Maybe travel and tourism related personal stories, if you went to my website to hit.com, you’ll see that I have a ramble of all different things.

Rebecca Davison, thank you for having me Danny it’s great to be here.

Danny de Hek 0:10
Good. Now we’re gonna get straight into it and muck around. We’ve got 12 questions which have been scrutinised by judges, and we’re gonna see how you answer them. I’m gonna ask you who what you do. So a nice simple one straightaway. What is your favourite book to read?

Rebecca Davison 0:27
Oh, I’m a big reader. So that’s actually quite a hard question for me. Two books actually sprang to mind though, I love the book, The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, which is about the sheep herd that goes on a spiritual journey essentially. And it’s, you know, it’s quite well known that alchemists so if you haven’t read it, make sure you do the other one that I have read multiple times. And I do love a book that you go back to and read again and again and again. Because you pick up different information is the book The road less travelled. And that is actually by a psychiatrist called in Scott peak, who’s written quite a few books after that, but there’s probably his most Well, no, and that’s, you know, the first sentence in the book is life is difficult. So in the end, obviously, he helps us to unpack how you can navigate through life and take the road less travelled, which brings you more fulfilment and happiness. So yeah, those be my top two off the top of my head.

Danny de Hek 1:32
Most people don’t believe me when I say it but I’ve never read a book of my life.

Rebecca Davison 1:35
Wow. But I bet you absorb information like crazy though, right?

Danny de Hek 1:40
I’ve discovered learning is I’ve got older and I love learning stuff in audiobooks is where I’m at at the moment. Yeah, yeah. Interesting enough. I went to a group called the speaker’s group, and they had people can do readings. And this guy was doing Mr. Penguin. They called Winnie the Pooh.

Oh, yes, yes one of my favourites

He was so animated and we were so quiet, quiet. And he was like, mesmerised. We were mesmerised by him doing it that he don’t we weren’t interested in what he was saying. Because, wow,

Rebecca Davison 2:17
He’s a good storyteller. Because when he dipoto, you have to do all the voices did he do? He must have Yeah. So of course, you’d be listening very intently. Because that’s part of the process of the pleasure, especially of a book like that.

Danny de Hek 0:00
Today, and now I'm going to give you your name, because I can't do it really well, because we have a common, some common interests that people will find out about the minute. They're what's your name?

Jo McClelland-Phillips 0:11
So I'm Jo McClelland-Phillips.

Danny de Hek 0:14
Excellent. That made my life easier. So thank you very much. Jo, come on today to answer 12 questions with myself. And I'm looking forward to this. So the first one is a real simple question. I hope it's - Who is your hero?

Jo McClelland-Phillips 0:27
Oh, golly, um, I have several, but I think probably the, the woman I go back to the most is Margaret Atwood, who's a Canadian author. She, she wrote on Handmaid's Tale, which a lot of people know because of the TV show. But we studied her in school, and I actually started off hating her in high school. And then I came back to her as an adult and realised how brilliant she is. And beyond her, her writing, which is sensational. I just love her works with the environment and women's rights and being Canadian, and from same part of Canada's myself, I really just enjoy her and love her. And I'm always taking notice of what she's doing.

Danny de Hek 1:14
Because you're Canadian, and you're living in Australia.

Jo McClelland-Phillips 1:17
I am Canadian living in Australia. Yes.

Danny de Hek 1:20
It's a story in itself. I'll go straight into question number two, what makes you laugh the most.

Jo McClelland-Phillips 1:27
I'm myself, actually, I'm always laughing at myself in good and bad ways. So I tend to make jokes that no one else seems to get, which I think are hilarious. And I make a lot of mistakes. And I mess up a lot, which, when I was younger, would make me really embarrassed and I get really self conscious. But having that my husband who finds the joy and the humour in mistakes, he just, I'll say something that's upside down and backwards. And he'll go, you just say that I'm like, Yeah, I was kind of hoping he missed that one. I was kind of hoping he would just go. But it never does. He always hears it. And it's really taught me to laugh at myself. So yeah, probably me.

Danny de Hek 2:13
Because of dyslexia, I can value that as well. I think you got to have a sense of humour when you're wrong, and I got away with it.

I was a roofing contractor, because my dad was a roofing contractor. And he said, when I was nine years old, son, one day this will all be yours. And when you're nine years old, the prospect of owning two vans and six ladders is quite exciting, Danny. So I was like, Oh, I'm going to be a roofer. So I left school as quickly as I could. I left school when I was 15. And I started to be a roofer. And after about a week, I realised that made a terrible decision. Definitely, definitely should not have decided to be a roofer. So I am so then I did I did the job, but I did it for six years. Didn't apprenticeship learned how to put roofs on and then started to follow my passion. So that was the first job I was a roofer. Like if you would like somebody to come along, give you a nice job with a roof estimates are always free.

Danny de Hek 1:30
My father, my stepfather was a painter and I finished up being a house painter, the ten years.

Michael Heppell 1:35

It was a week. It was a week that I before we asked, I didn't want to do it. But I did it for six years. I was 22 when I stopped.

Danny de Hek 1:52
Oh, any mishaps along the way because

Michael Heppell 1:55
There are loads loads. I had a really bad fall once. I am actually the weird thing was I once fell off a roof that was three storeys high, fell right from the top landed in the garden and there wasn't anything not a scratch. I looked at I looked at my mates. And they were just all absolutely double up laughing. They thought it was hilarious. I had fallen off. And then another time I felt one story, but I had slates on my shoulder well, late, and I fell and they slashed my hands and my wrists. And I was in a pretty bad way after that one didn't wasn't quite sure what I wanted to go back to work. But I did. And I recovered. Or I've got all six fingers

Danny de Hek 0:18 
Yeah, yeah. So they've been shuffled. I don't even know what they are. But we did actually have a committee once and we come up with 107 meaningful questions to actually ask people. And technically, there shouldn't be any better questions than this. But if there is, you don't have to answer. It's all impromptu. So start off with the first question.

Richard Andrew 0:37 
Where's the scoreboard?

Danny de Hek 0:39

Danny de Hek 0:00 
Andrew, how are you doing today?

Richard Andrew 0:02 
I'm very well, Danny, WHAT : DE HEK are we doing.

Danny de Hek 0:05 
That's it WHAT : DE HEK Podcast, you've come along to a live one here. So we don't tell anyone who you are what you do until later on. I have 12 questions and they're the pack of 107.

Richard Andrew 0:15 
Should I hide my face then?

Danny de Hek 0:18 
Yeah, yeah. So they've been shuffled. I don't even know what they are. But we did actually have a committee once and we come up with 107 meaningful questions to actually ask people. And technically, there shouldn't be any better questions than this. But if there is, you don't have to answer. It's all impromptu. So start off with the first question.

Richard Andrew 0:37 
Where's the scoreboard?

Danny de Hek 0:39 
Oh, well, that's the customers below with the comments. So anyone that's got the tomatoes. They can go they can put tomatoes and throw it at you. It should be fine.

Richard Andrew 0:49 
Cool

Danny de Hek 0:49 
Okay, let's see how fashionable you are. Is anythink that you wish would come back into Fashion?

Richard Andrew 0:56 
Is there anything that what would come back into Fashion?

Danny de Hek 0:59 
Is there anything that you'd wish that would come back into Fashion?

Richard Andrew 1:04 
Geez. In five minutes time, I'll think of a perfect answer for this. Can't think of anything off the top of my head? My clothes maybe, definitely want to hear something I definitely wouldn't want to come back into fashion and these are the clothes is to wear in the 70s.

Danny de Hek 1:29 
Because when you ask this question, you think he I do remember the Starsky and Hutch, Jersey with the you put your hand in the front and it had a big pocket on the front and normally had a stripe going down the side?

Richard Andrew 1:39 
Yeah,

Danny de Hek 1:40 
Yeah, I don't.

Richard Andrew 1:42 
I don't know. I don't really pine? I don't know. No, not sure.

Danny de Hek 1:50
Obviously, Fashion not a big thing for you. As you can tell, eleven questions to go. Okay, this one could be an easy one. Maybe not so easy to use at the moment. So what form of public transportation do you prefer? that's given us five examples we've got Air, Boat, Train, Bus, Car. So something what would you rather jump on? Pretend your on a holiday.

Matthew Mewse 1:32
Okay. Um, I think there are lots of glib responses to that. And there are some funny ones as well. But I think I would probably leave my tombstone for my wife to inscribe, right. And as I think about it, she would probably write something like, Here lies, Matthew muse. And he could make a good case. case, a baker,

Danny de Hek 2:02
Brilliant food. I love it. Right? That’s question one down. I just realise you’ve got 30 increase in so you might get one extra. Okay. Now, does your family know anything about your family at all? And that’s how we originally made would have been through the business networking underneath?

Welcome. Hello. Nice to have you here today. I have Chris Taylor. Good friend of mine. How long have we known each other for now, Chris?

Chris Taylor 0:20 
Oh, about 100 years, I reckon.

Danny de Hek 0:22

Chris Taylor 0:33 
Definitely my dog.

Danny de Hek 0:37 
star started this podcast about 20 minutes ago, and then I suddenly remembered my dog was in the dog room as Lee had to go pick him up. So we've started again. Question number two. If money was no object, what would you do all day long.

Chris Taylor 0:53 
If money was no object, I would run a orphanage in Africa for 1000 children.

Danny de Hek 1:08 
Yeah. Now have you watched that movie Marcel Marceau

Chris Taylor 1:11 
Oh, are we while ago

Danny de Hek 1:15 
is one on Netflix. And that said he was helping the orphanages people over the war period. And to keep the kids occupied he started doing his miming, that was really, really good movie, actually. But I didn't he know how he became Marcel Marceau am I saying that? Right? So yeah, the French French? The French guy. Yeah. Yeah, that's a really good story. Hunt it if you haven't seen it, I think it's relatively new on Netflix. So you might not have seen it.

Chris Taylor 1:44 
Fascinating fact about masama. So he wants made a pass at David Bowie. And David Berry, the musician wanted to be a mime artist in the mid 60s. And Marcel fancy David. But David wasn't having any of it.

Danny de Hek 2:05 
Labyrinth is that the right one?

Chris Taylor 2:07 
Way before Labyrinth, Danny so when he was finding his feet in the 60s

Danny de Hek 2:13

Back in 2010 I had a disgruntled customer who felt justified in telephoning my clients on one Saturday morning, trying to defame me and my business after feeling my actions were unjustified. The issue was co-existing with a messy divorce which was fuelled by two ladies ganging up on me to tarnish my business.

In fairness to the STUFF newspaper they did call me to get my side of the story, if they didn’t, then it would’ve been a lot worse than the story they were about to publish. One thing I did learn, once they had started investing time in a story, they want to publish it anyway. I was a bit dumfounded by the information they had been fed and to the Editor’s credit, he did listen to me and did give me a chance to speak.

10 years later I decided to contact STUFF and see whether they would be willing to remove the article, three long emails later, basically they don’t care and they won’t back down.

10 years later I now have a much stronger presence on the Internet and I can now publish my own content. So when you search for peoples names, my content can be in the search results for years as well. I cannot publish any part of Roeland van den Bergh’s email replies to me, due to his copyright on the bottom of his emails, so I will summarise his replies.

Hello STUFF

Subject: Act of kindness to Danny de Hek

I’m asking for a favour…

I had this article written about me about 10 years ago, at the time I was going through a messy divorce and my wife was out to get me. One of her beloved friends was Sharon Jones of Canterbury Equestrian, the information is inaccurate and certainly not fair to my character or my nature.

The reason why I would respectfully like the information removed, is as every time you search for my name, “Danny de Hek” up comes this article. It has cost me a lot of explaining and embarrassment because people don’t read, they just see that I was talked about in the STUFF newspaper.

It’s been 10 years and it still affects me! The information is not accurate and doesn’t do anything but harm my reputation. Is it possible to have it removed?

So you get a better picture of who I am and what I do check out my website:

To understand a bit about my character, check out my YouTube channel:

Sometimes when I’m talking to people I feel like I’m talking Japanese, I do find it hard to communicate and express what I mean. Living with dyslexia is difficult and I’m continuously getting misinterpreted. I’m not making excuses, but I don’t need any false information holding me back and I think 10 years of poorly researched information is enough.

Happy to talk to anyone on the phone 021 961 652

Best Regards
Danny de Hek

But lots of names on here. Everyone's getting busy at the moment, I had a guy who sent me a lovely request to come along to his event on LinkedIn. I said, Why don't we get together have a meeting? And tell me about it? Because I'm a bit busy at the moment. I said, So am I good luck with your event. But everyone's busy me.

Danny de Hek: [00:00:00] Welcome to ELITE : SIX  business networking think tank facilitated by your host, Danny, to hit the place where decision makers come together to share their experience, knowledge and skill.

Really good meeting today. It's on organisation. A lot of people have got some good advice and they want to share it with you. So without further ado, lets start the meeting, ok guys.

So welcome along to the think tank meeting, we will start the meeting. Now we'll do a meeting thing. Today is personal organisation, things that you use to help.

Yourself, stay , maybe electronically, maybe a piece of paper on the desk. Anything that all that you can think you can help some other people with, if you haven't been to. I think tank meeting before we break it into four parts people's experiences with trying to organise himself, problems that people are having with organisation and then solutions.

And obviously some takeaways at the end of the meeting. And then we come up with next week's topic, which is quite groovy. So I was good,  what I'd like to do first is we've got our group of people here, so let's have a introduction of who you have. Cause, last week I think I told you guys, which you have 150 listeners to our podcast and in seven days, which is really good.

So people that are listening are probably wondering who is actually on this podcast. I'll start at the top. My top might not be your top. Does that make sense, Paul, do you want to introduce who you are and what you do?

Paul Starling: [00:01:24] Yep. I'm Paul stalling. I run Canterbury Computer Services in Rangiora, and we are a residential break fix. And look after small businesses and their computing needs and providing solutions for them.

Danny de Hek: [00:01:38] The majority of your customers would be using PCs. Would that be correct?

Paul Starling: [00:01:42] Yes. Majority is windows and Android and a few Apple customers.

Danny de Hek: [00:01:48] They're very few Apple. They don't break down. You'll see

Paul Starling: [00:01:52] They won't deal with the boys like us.

Danny de Hek: [00:01:55] My dogs go Apple, by the way, just in case, you're wondering, Helen do I know

Helen Oakes: [00:01:59] This is April I dog, and he's really good on Apple products areas. I'm Helen  Mode de vie Photography, creating memories to laugh last, a lifetime. Do you like that catch phrase?

Danny de Hek: [00:02:14] It catches you stool. Excellent. yeah, maybe at one age, I want to know a little bit more about you too. You guys are married or you just happened to be in the same screen every month.

Jaline Pietroiusti: [00:02:26] Yes, we are married and we do work together.

Danny de Hek: [00:02:30] Oh, sorry. This is

Really good meeting today. It's on organisation. A lot of people have got some good advice and they want to share it with you. So without further ado, lets start the meeting, ok guys.

So welcome along to the think tank meeting, we will start the meeting. Now we'll do a meeting thing. Today is personal organisation, things that you use to help.

Yourself, stay , maybe electronically, maybe a piece of paper on the desk. Anything that all that you can think you can help some other people with, if you haven't been to. I think tank meeting before we break it into four parts people's experiences with trying to organise himself, problems that people are having with organisation and then solutions.

And obviously some takeaways at the end of the meeting. And then we come up with next week's topic, which is quite groovy. So I was good,  what I'd like to do first is we've got our group of people here, so let's have a introduction of who you have. Cause, last week I think I told you guys, which you have 150 listeners to our podcast and in seven days, which is really good.

So people that are listening are probably wondering who is actually on this podcast. I'll start at the top. My top might not be your top. Does that make sense, Paul, do you want to introduce who you are and what you do?

Paul Starling: [00:01:24] Yep. I'm Paul stalling. I run Canterbury Computer Services in Rangiora, and we are a residential break fix. And look after small businesses and their computing needs and providing solutions for them.

Danny de Hek: [00:01:38] The majority of your customers would be using PCs. Would that be correct?

Paul Starling: [00:01:42] Yes. Majority is windows and Android and a few Apple customers.

Danny de Hek: [00:01:48] They're very few Apple. They don't break down. You'll see

Paul Starling: [00:01:52] They won't deal with the boys like us.

Danny de Hek: [00:01:55] My dogs go Apple, by the way, just in case, you're wondering, Helen do I know

Helen Oakes: [00:01:59] This is April I dog, and he's really good on Apple products areas. I'm Helen  Mode de vie Photography, creating memories to laugh last, a lifetime. Do you like that catch phrase?

Danny de Hek: [00:02:14] It catches you stool. Excellent. yeah, maybe at one age, I want to know a little bit more about you too. You guys are married or you just happened to be in the same screen every month.

Jaline Pietroiusti: [00:02:26] Yes, we are married and we do work together.

Danny de Hek: [00:02:30] Oh, sorry. This is

Jaline Pietroiusti: [00:02:35] Surprisingly. Everybody thinks I would end up in divorce, but

Danny de Hek 0:16
Yeah, so welcome along. Helen Oakes and I’m Danny de Hek. If youre interested. Now this is Helen’s first podcast of her own, we’re going to set up Helen. Helen is actually a photographer. She’s also my partner. And since COVID we’ve been looking for, to market ourselves in different wonderful ways. So as you can imagine… a photographer is having a great time at the moment because we can’t get out in public so much. So why don’t you first tell me how you actually first got involved in photography, and why you love doing photography.

Helen Oakes 0:52
Okay, I first got involved probably in my 20s, I would say, even a, well actually even a little bit in my teens, I quite liked photography and I had a tiny little camera, it was like a little flipout camera an Instamax camera. And I got that as a birthday present one time, and I thought that was the bees knees and I went around taking photos. It’s the sort of camera that you put these flashes, big long…um there’s about 12 flashes that you stick on the top of it.

Danny de Hek 1:20
Oh yeah, they look like the blue bottles on the beach.

Helen Oakes 1:24
Yeah, so you put those on the top of the camera, and you take photos. And it was really cool. I thought it was really fun, really cool. And then as I got older, I used to watch my brother taking photos and he had a SLR, which was a Pentax camera and I thought Wow, that looks really cool, professional looking camera. So then I decided I’d get myself a camera. So I got myself a Sigma camera, no, Minolta camera with a Sigma lens on it. And it had all the manual dials on it. And I was like, Oh, this looks a bit tricky, but I’ll have a go. And I used to always put it on one setting and I thought if I put it on this setting I’m bound to get good photos. So I’d always put it on one setting. And then I gradually started playing around a bit more with it and started learning more. And then I used to look at my brother’s photos and go, Wow, they’re really amazing. I want to get further in the photography field. Yeah.

Danny de Hek 2:16
So what type of photography would you say is your genre, as the say?

Helen Oakes 2:20
My genre would be people photography. I love taking photos of people. I love taking photos of sports people.

Danny de Hek 2:27
Right, have you done any events that come to mind that you’re really proud of?

Helen Oakes 2:30
Yeah, yeah, I love doing gymnastic events like National Gymnastic competitions, right. And I love doing just portraits of people, for workshoots and also for sport shoots.

You are listening to Danny, on WHAT : DE HEK podcast. This is the place where I share my experience, knowledge and skills.

Good afternoon. Good evening, or Good morning. I'm Danny de Hek. As my introduction said, I just wanted to do a hate word just when you use just, it's not just I want to give you a podcast about change in the things that you kind of need to do in your business at the moment to be a strong player. So recording this on my YouTube channel so you can actually see me and I can talk to you, which is really cool. And I just wanted to show you some of the things that I've been working on lately that really have had a lot of change.

As many of you may know, I actually have a business networking company called elite six and I've been doing elite for about eight years, and I bought it as a franchise,

and I dissolved the franchise, and now I run all the meetings myself. And I'm like the connector guy that gets everyone together. And that's why I call myself a connector. So if you even need to know anyone, and you're looking for someone who does this on the guy that you can ring, and I will point you in the right direction.

So the unique point of difference with elite six is that we are not a referral network. We have got business networking in the back, we are a hub of like minded business people, they get together and really help each other in business. So a lot of people go to me I never get any business as such, well no one really buys my product or service when I come along to elite six. However, the information that they learn from ELITE : SIX and we offer people in the marketing is really a strength

It's like having a business community around you that really cares about your business. So that's what I do. So over lockdown with COVID-19, we were running up to 15 zoom meetings a week. And then we went down to about eight. And then this morning, we run about five zoom meetings. And we also run one face to face meeting. But a lot of the correspondence that goes on with my members throughout the week, via emails,

and also lots of catch up phone calls to see how people are going. So it's a really nice organisation. I'm really proud to say that it's what's mine. And also, I run it myself as I, and I've got some great people around me, which is awesome. So anyway, this morning, I ran a zoom meeting, and we normally have anywhere from eight to nine people. This morning, no one or one person loyal David Clarkson. He turned up, but that was it. And I thought, the timing really when things happen.

Like that, I thought to myself, it's a sign telling me things are listen to the podcast at podcast.dehek.com

So a lot of people go to me I never get any business as such, well no one really buys my product or service when I come along to elite six. However, the information that they learn from ELITE : SIX and we offer people in the marketing is really a strength

It's like having a business community around you that really cares about your business. So that's what I do. So over lockdown with COVID-19, we were running up to 15 zoom meetings a week. And then we went down to about eight. And then this morning, we run about five zoom meetings. And we also run one face to face meeting. But a lot of the correspondence that goes on with my members throughout the week, via emails,

and also lots of catch up phone calls to see how people are going. So it's a really nice organisation. I'm really proud to say that it's what's mine. And also, I run it myself as I, and I've got some great people around me, which is awesome. So anyway, this morning, I ran a zoom meeting, and we normally have anywhere from eight to nine people. This morning, no one or one person loyal David Clarkson. He turned up, but that was it. And I thought, the timing really when things happen.

Like that, I thought to myself, it's a sign telling me things are listen to the podcast at podcast.dehek.com

Facilitated by DANNY : DE HEK meetings are recorded for our Podcast, we’ve been doing this since COVID-19 if you’re interested in joining in with us check out our website at dehek.com

EXPERIENCES

  • If you personally are prone to anxiety or depression, then you actively need to build up a network of supportive people around you.
  • Problem shared is a problem solved
  • While there often is no apparent reason for someone to take their own life; there can be prior subtle signs. We need to listen carefully if we are close to them.
  • We don’t talk about it, but there is no harm if you do
  • People taking their life when they feel there is no way out
  • Celebrate all the successes no matter how big or small they are
  • I've found its so important to have "something" I do for me... once a week I try to have a coffee date with a friend & that's my me time, download. It's great if they are in business & you can download together then just chat..
  • Being sad, angry, hurt is ok. There is nothing wrong with those emotions.
  • You never say the words I know exactly how you're feeling, because it's impossible to know how someone is feeling a nicer way to say this would be to say I can only imagine what you were going through at the moment.

PROBLEMS

  • Alcohol drinking too much drinking when you are low.
  • Avoid alcohol around stress. Have to look carefully at problem and booze interferes.
  • Entrepreneur can be perfectionist
  • Having that attitude of I can do this is so important
  • Comparing ourselves to others is not productive
  • We can create our own stress when often we find later it's misplaced.
  • Having no one to talk to
  • Getting useless information from well meaning people.
  • False modesty and unwillingness to admit failure.

SOLUTIONS

  • Do some Physical Exercise
  • Realise it is ok if things are not smooth sailing in business. That is normal.
  • Trust yourself as you do not know what is going on in someone else's business
  • Join/Find group of link-minded people and talk.
  • Find some practical things that you could do to support someone
  • Immerse yourselves in successful network groups like elite six where issues can be shared in supportive ways.
  • A walk in the forest & catch up with an old school friend has been great.
  • Build systems in your business to relieve pressures
  • Ask people how they are on a scale of 1 to 10

TAKES AWAY

  • Don't believe the hype
  • Identify the supportive people around you and reach out to them when things are not going well for you.
  • Find a network like ELITE : SIX or someone you can share success, failure and uncertainty with.
  • Celebrate every success big or small

Different Ways to Communicate Effectively… Verbal, Written, Oral, Face-to-Face, Nonverbal, Physical, Paralanguage and Visual

EXPERIENCES

  • Everyone has at least two languages – their native language and their body language.
  • Gauge your audience. Communicate to suite
  • Even those hard conversations should be tackled sensitively and with calmness
  • Don’t shy away from courageous conversations; giving strong feedback or bad news

PROBLEMS

  • Wasting Time
  • Misunderstandings if not clear
  • Miscommunication never ends well. Be clear & concise
  • Key concept about communication is to focus on your clients needs rather than our own needs.
  • Being pressured when you don’t have time to consider your response or get the facts

SOLUTIONS

  • Always be “in the now” when communicating with your clients – focus while you are communicating – multitasking interferes with communication.
  • Listening and play back what they said
  • Recognise that different mediums require different communication styles often
  • Get confidence by doing and getting feedback
  • CAUTION: This message has been composed by a dyslexic person using voice recognition, over bluetooth, with predictive texting enabled. So, who knows if it is 100% accurate. If in doubt phone me on 021 961 652
  • Set clear expectations: budget, time line, deliverables etc
  • Documenting key discussion points
  • Prepare for important communications; do your homework. Use facts and examples
  • Admit when you are wrong or have made a mistake
  • Be transparent
  • Present Solutions / alternatives when things go wrong
  • New book I have found – Average sucks

Facilitated by DANNY : DE HEK meetings are recorded for our Podcast, we’ve been doing this since COVID-19 if you’re interested in joining in with us check out our website at dehek.com

EXPERIENCES

  • Forced everyone to embrace digital technologies such as “Zoom”.
  • The Seven R’s of Change Management Who raised the change? … What is the reason for the change?… What return is required from the change? … What are the risks involved in the change? … What resources are required to deliver the change? … Who is responsible for the “build, test, and implement” portion of the change?
  • Don’t mistake compliance for acceptance. People who are overwhelmed by continuous change resign themselves to it and go along with the flow. You have them in body, but you do not have their hearts. Motivation is low
  • Fear of the unknown make people fearful of change
  • The businesses that can react quickly and meaningfully to external factors will succeed.
  • To make change a new normal
  • To make change possible you must have the buy in and authority of the most senior manager.
  • Only make changes based on good data, not on a gut feeling.

PROBLEMS

  • Changing without analysing why
  • Not managing the change
  • Making a change without accurate data
  • Lack of communication around the reasons for change

SOLUTIONS

  • Systems and Processes
  • Focus has to be on the people implementing and being effected by change as well as the desired outcome.
  • Monitoring
  • Communicating you are trustworthy
  • Be transparent. Clarify with clients and or staff as to the reason for the change and the expected advantages that will come from it.
  • Been a great leader

TAKES AWAY

  • Change involves risk, so change management involves risk management
  • Those with the most to lose as a result of the change will be the most resistant to the change
  • About Donald trump’s Whitehouse a great (if disturbing) read is “Fire and Fury” by Michael Wolff.

Facilitated by DANNY : DE HEK meetings are recorded for our Podcast, we’ve been doing this since COVID-19 if you’re interested in joining in with us check out our Website at dehek.com

Event sponsored by ELITE : SIX listen to TED speaker Michael Hempseed topic will be Mental Health

Thanks for zooming in, we value having you here today.

I will just explain briefly the format. We normally run a think tank meeting on a Friday and it recorded on our podcast and it open chat with everyone pitching in there 2 cents worth.

We have a theme picked from the end of the last week meeting.

As we are adapting, I thought we would us some of the topics talked about at our meeting this week. However most questions have responded to by our ELITE : SIX members and posted to our website in the blog section.

This Week Learnings

  • Thinking Difference
  • Embrace Change
  • Learning Tech
  • Be Collective work together with a buddy
  • Checking up on ya mates, talk to strangers, adopt a online friend. Even over the last two week of using Zoom I have seen people building better relationships in different ways, after all you are in peoples homes, it a nice way to meet new friends.

Personally this does not make sense, 9 million people die of hunger and hunger-related diseases every year, when others are earning $400,000 per week for playing soccer. It’s time for change and new way of thinking.

What slows people down is things like criticising for the sake of if it, let leader lead and follow they may may not be prefect today. But we need leader more than ever!

I am enjoying time and home and not having to be in the race for life and planing my retirement, it come down to three fundamentals. Shelter, Food and Friends and Family.

David Clarkson is going to introduce our speaker...

Certainly been a hard week on all of us, but we made it to Friday! ELITE : SIX has reinvented the way we are running our Business Networking company!

If you watch this you may get some good ideas, some creative ways that you could employ some new thinking and perhaps some new services you can offer people instead of sitting there and dwelling on the negative aspects of the Coronavirus.

Topic was Coronavirus (COVID-19)

The one-step to resolving the CORVID-19 hysteria

There is one ingredient to shifting the lives of those being disrupted and the scenes of panic buying: give them certainty in the form of an absolute.

Friday’s Think Tank meeting had two clear points: emotion and leadership. The two are opposites.

The panic or mass buying of non-essential items is pure emotion. Emotion is driven by uncertainty.

So much of what we hear around CORVID-19 is pure uncertainty.

Leadership provides certainty. Certainty on the next step. Where the next step is. Something to aim for. Even if you don’t know what the next step is and you are leader of your family or business, deliver something that is certain. Deliver something absolute. Something that is near tangible.

Examples:

·      A date (which may change),
·      A time (which may change),
·      A location (which may change),

People need to know and now. Knowing and certainty creates safety. Safety diffuses emotion. Fear subsides. Rational thinking and action resumes. Life is now focussed on there being a next step

If your boat is sinking and you’re telling your passengers ‘we will be okay’ will only work if there is a lifeboat they can see – the absolute.

Deliver the absolute in your message.

Now more than ever we look back at history and recount some of the statements issued in grave depression or war time. Now is the time to use history as our teacher and deliver what worked then. It will work now.

“We shall draw from the heart of suffering itself the means of inspiration and survival.” – Winston Churchill.

I’m an active Podcaster and I asked the very same question when I wanted to start. I’ve been in the Internet marketing space since 1995. Setting up a Podcast is one of the most easiest things I have done.

First thing I would do would be to buy a high-quality recording device. The one I got was a bit of an overkill, but still very affordable. My recommendation is the ‘ZOOM H6 Handy Recorder‘ they range from NZ$500-$700 as it all depends on where you shop, make sure you get a genuine one from one of their approved suppliers.

Six interchangeable input capsules make the ZOOM H6 the ultimate recorder for film, video, podcast and music. Its advanced preamps make it the best-sounding one, too. Unmatched abilities. Award-winning quality.

You may not need any additional microphones with the ZOOM H6, however if you do an ideal studio microphone would be the Audio-Technica BP40 broadcast vocal microphone offers a rich, natural, condenser-like sound from a large-diaphragm dynamic design. I also use the Blue Yeti Pro USB Microphone because I wanted a mike where I can record multiple people in a room at the same time, the Yeti Pro provides three custom condenser capsules with four distinct recording patterns and you need that to record multiple people.

Not a necessity, however it’s good to have some audio editing software, As I like to bookend my podcast with an intro and outro. I have been using Camtasia you can use it to get the best sound out of your recordings.

Next, you need a podcast hosting service. I joined a Podcasting Facebook group that had over 26,000 members, and I asked the person who ran the group what one he would recommend, and he gave me a link to Buzzsprout.

The real exciting thing for me was that I wanted my podcast to appear in Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, and more. Buzzsprout provides this service and you can start free and you can upgrade at anytime as your podcast grows. Basically you pay as your podcast hours increase.

Over the next few weeks, I will be publishing a set of Podcast on #WebArchitecture #DomainNames #Email #WebHosting #Content #Maintenance #SEO #SearchEngineOptimisation and #PaidAdvertising

What’s my background, how long have you got? My claim to fame – I started the first Internet cafe in Christchurch with a friend back in 1995 it was called The Email Centre on Worcester Boulevard. People who used to come and use our cyber services taught me how the Internet worked, looking back it was enough to make me dangerous. At that time my expertise was getting people with computers onto the Internet and teaching them how to surf the World Wide Web.

After 12 months I gained enough knowledge simply by looking over peoples shoulders, asking questions and seeing what others were using the Internet for. I learnt to be able to set up a basic website. One day I decided to sell everything I owned to buy a laptop and shortly after I maxed out my credit card with one of the first digital cameras that came to the market. I was equipped and ready to rock and roll as a mobile internet consultant.
I used to travel around New Zealand claiming to be New Zealand’s leading Internet consultant. For a one time setup cost of $300 and monthly hosting, promotion and maintenance for $30 a month, businesses could have a web presence within New Zealand’s Information Network. At one point I represented 45 different rental car brands, tourism companies and many accommodation providers throughout New Zealand. I was self appointed but I certainly made a big impact on the travel and tourism industry in New Zealand which earned me a six-figure income along the way.

Being dyslexic and not being able to read and write, I kind of stood out like a sore thumb. I received a lot of criticism in an industry that wasn’t regulated by so-called peers, known these days as keyboard warriors. However it made me stronger and more determined to succeed, the old saying “no such thing as bad press” was certainly true in my case, the fact is it put me on the map!

A few years later as the internet became more prominent and competitive, web development companies would approach my clients with flashy website designs which I couldn’t compete with. Understandably many of my clients wanted to take control of their own Internet services in house. This was my turning point, I re-strategised and invested time in myself and started doing a lot of affiliate marketing and commission based work. With a little luck one of my affiliate sites started generating $40,000 worth of profit each month. That site used to get 25,000 IP visits per day, the knowledge I learnt at that time was the real value.

These days I own and run ELITE : SIX Business Networking and continue to look after a handful of loyal website clients, and I run a few drop shipping websites of my own. A lot of the knowledge I’ve learnt from marketing other people‘s businesses and having my own sites, has kept me in the know and a leader in the industry of Internet marketing.

I was bought up a Jehovah’s Witness. I was disfellowshipped twice, I got reinstated after only four months, and then disfellowshipped again 6 months later. My family doesn’t speak to me and I’ve been out of the organisation since 1993.

I’ve had two family members commit suicide and I believe one of the main factors was the Jehovah’s Witness organisation.

I had to start over from scratch at the age of 23. All the people I looked up to, all the people that gave me leadership and my best and dearest friends, were lost and I couldn’t communicate with them.

Honestly, I do not believe I have a chip on my shoulder, however the influence this organisation has on people has to be spoken about. Ironically, they believe that the world will turn on them one-day, who knows, this could be the beginning.

]]> This podcast was inspired by watching the documentary "The Watchtower" aired on Oxygen.com in February 2020

I was bought up a Jehovah’s Witness. I was disfellowshipped twice, I got reinstated after only four months, and then disfellowshipped again 6 months later. My family doesn’t speak to me and I’ve been out of the organisation since 1993.

I’ve had two family members commit suicide and I believe one of the main factors was the Jehovah’s Witness organisation.

I had to start over from scratch at the age of 23. All the people I looked up to, all the people that gave me leadership and my best and dearest friends, were lost and I couldn’t communicate with them.

Honestly, I do not believe I have a chip on my shoulder, however the influence this organisation has on people has to be spoken about. Ironically, they believe that the world will turn on them one-day, who knows, this could be the beginning.

As many of you know I’m planning My Trip and I leave on Friday the 13th, unlucky date for some, as I’m heading to China, Bangladesh and coming home via New Delhi India. This intrepid journey is to celebrate my 50th. My main goal is to travel on top of a train in Bangladesh and take some awesome street photography, as well as a whole lot of video blogs for my TikTok account.

Shit happens and shit happened when my car was parked on the side of the road last week. A 17-year-old guy who wasn’t concentrating on his driving, was dropping off a customers vehicle after it had been serviced from Blackwells Mazda. He crashed into my vehicle and set off his airbags, he went on two wheels flying past the doctors surgery window. I ran out to see what had happened and if he was ok and noticed he had smashed into my car.

As you can imagine this wasn’t really something I needed to deal with just before Christmas, especially when I’m arranging my holiday. Everything went blurry and I didn’t really want to burden the young fella who made the mistake so when I had a moment to re-analyse the situation I started to assess what I needed to do.

With the advice I got from members of ELITE : SIX I was soon in a rental car/van at no cost. Did you realise if you’re involved in a not-at-fault accident you are legally entitled to a rental car and there is a company setup to handle all this for you, Right2Drive.

Next, I was instructed how the process works best to get my vehicle written off. The powers that be were telling me that it wouldn’t be written off because there’s too much money tied up in the new vehicle.

Mike from Ferrymead Automotive to turn down a $17,000 repair job to give me the result I wanted, an unselfish act of bravery for any business person!

Next minute the insurance company tells me that they going to settle for $24,500. However, the finance left on the vehicle was for $28,000, it was a bit of a hard pill to swallow. With the advice from my insurance company, who said they were batting for me, suggested if I didn’t agree on the figure, I could go back to the valuer and tell him I disagree with this valuation. The phone call went something like this, “Hi I’m Danny, you valued my car” he said “I value hundreds of cars, I’m not familiar with the vehicle you are talking about, put it in an email and I’ll answer it tomorrow” and he hangs up!

Hi, I’m Helen a photographer and the business owner of Mode de vie Photography which is located in the South Island of New Zealand.

I’ve been a professional photographer for 10 years and I predominantly shoot portraits, landscapes and gymnastics! It’s great being behind the camera but I love post processing photos too, it’s where all the magic happens! After many hours playing around on the computer I decided to make my own Lightroom presets, Photoshop actions and textures. I was driven to make my own presets as I wanted a unique style, synonymous to my brand. I could never quite find a style that spoke of me so I made my own.

I love using presets as they produce a different look on each photo. What works with one image may not work on another. There are so many presets to choose from to get the look you are after, so experimentation is the key. My presets will also save you time and cut your workflow time down considerably.

These presets work well on portraits and landscapes and they can be tweaked to your individual taste. Use with one click or play around a little for the look you want. The MDV presets are just a starting point to turn your photos into stunning images.

My PS actions and textures will also give your images a pop and make them stand out. The textures work well with most photos and they add a bit of life and substance to an image. Depending on the blending mode you choose, the choices are limitless. You can stack the textures, erase them back and just blend them in all different ways.

My digital products can be used on RAW files as well as JPEGs and they are compatible with LR 4 – 6 and CC.

I also make NZ art prints which are a combination of my photographs blended with my presets or actions and textures. Some have a retro feel and some are more vintage or pastel looking. I love making these prints. They showcase the NZ landscape and also highlight a multi-blended piece of art.

I hope you like my products as much as I enjoy making them.

Please contact me on my email if you have any questions or queries, I’d be happy to help out.

I love using presets as they produce a different look on each photo. What works with one image may not work on another. There are so many presets to choose from to get the look you are after, so experimentation is the key. My presets will also save you time and cut your workflow time down considerably.

These presets work well on portraits and landscapes and they can be tweaked to your individual taste. Use with one click or play around a little for the look you want. The MDV presets are just a starting point to turn your photos into stunning images.

My PS actions and textures will also give your images a pop and make them stand out. The textures work well with most photos and they add a bit of life and substance to an image. Depending on the blending mode you choose, the choices are limitless. You can stack the textures, erase them back and just blend them in all different ways.

My digital products can be used on RAW files as well as JPEGs and they are compatible with LR 4 – 6 and CC.

I also make NZ art prints which are a combination of my photographs blended with my presets or actions and textures. Some have a retro feel and some are more vintage or pastel looking. I love making these prints. They showcase the NZ landscape and also highlight a multi-blended piece of art.

I hope you like my products as much as I enjoy making them.

Please contact me on my email if you have any questions or queries, I’d be happy to help out.
