Elevate Pass Ponzi collapses? (website down)


Elevate Move seems to have collapsed.

At time of publication Elevate Move’ web site has been down for over twelve hours. Makes an attempt to go to the location return a DNS configuration error.

Usually an internet site taking place would immediate a day or so of watching earlier than calling a Ponzi scheme’s collapse.

Whereas it might nonetheless come again, I’m assured Elevate Move has collapsed for a lot of causes.

The primary is the character of the web site error; “ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED”.

This isn’t simply the web site taking place, somebody logged into Elevate Move’ area account and manually modified the DNS settings.

WHOIS data verify this befell on Could eleventh, 2022 – precisely eleven months after Elevate Move’ web site area was registered.

The error arising means somebody has deliberately damaged the web site by DNS settings. They needed to log in and level “elevatepass.internet” to nothing, which is what throws up the “not resolved” error.

Our subsequent information level is a supposed communication from Elevate Move CEO Rafael Cebula;

  1. manually altering DNS settings of a website to null isn’t a “technical problem”, it’s an intentional motion;
  2. neither is manually altering DNS settings of a website to null a “technical glitch”;
  3. it’d take 5 seconds to log again into Elevate Move’ area account and alter the DNS settings. No ETA? BS.

Couple this with the crypto market tanking immediately because of the Luna/Terra Ponzi scheme collapsing, and I believe it’s fairly apparent Elevate Move has collapsed.

The web site might return with some bullshit cowl story however that’d be a reboot. I’ll replace beneath if that occurs.

Elevate Move was a 200% ROI cryptocurrency Ponzi scheme. Rafael Cebula ran/runs the rip-off from the UK.

Initially from elsewhere in Europe, again in February Cebula celebrated acquiring full UK citizenship:

Earlier this month Cebula then introduced he was disappearing to Thailand:

One would possibly assume, in mild of Elevate Move collapsing, Cebula’s journey plans had been fast-tracked.

 

Replace twelfth Could 2022 – As suspected, Elevate Move has resurfaced with a brand new area title.

The “technical glitch” excuse has been modified to “Google has suspended our domains”.

Their compliance workforce is rally gradual, however meantime workforce has completed a backup resolution and related our server to the second area”.

The particular situation for the alleged suspension isn’t supplied. I’m not satisfied, as when registrar’s droop domains they sometimes don’t null the DNS. As a substitute an error web page is often arrange.

In any occasion, Elevate Move’ new area is “epass.to”. Tonga isn’t as dangerous as .IO domains with regards to scams, however the TLD does have a historical past of affiliation with fraud.

Notably, anybody can arrange a .TO area with out having to supply private particulars.

We needed to be sure to have entry once more to the web site whereas we take care of the elevatepass area.

Their workforce has instructed us it’d take as much as 48h, so we knew we couldn’t wait that lengthy that’s why the backup resolution.

I’ll publish any additional Elevate Move updates beneath.

 

Replace fifteenth Could 2022 – Elevate Move are claiming Google suspended their unique area after they had been unable to confirm supplied contact particulars.

After trying to confirm the Elevate Move area proprietor particulars, Google purportedly replied;

Sadly, what you submitted can’t be used to confirm your account particulars and you have to to submit extra paperwork utilizing the safe type right here.

Now why would Elevate Move be unable to confirm the submitted area proprietor? Simply Ponzi issues, nothing to see right here.

Elevate Move continues to function from its reboot area, nevertheless this area is lacking SSL.

Traders are being instructed it is a downside with CloudFlare. Within the meantime, they’re logging in and transmitting private information over unsecured connections.

 

Replace 18th Could 2022 – Elevate Move seems to have regained management of their main web site area.

No rationalization for why Elevate Move’ area registrar reached out to contact them, or why they had been unable to confirm the registered area proprietor has been supplied.

 

Replace twenty third August 2022 – Elevate Move has collapsed once more. This time withdrawals have been disabled.
