Following proprietor Josip Heit’s failure to indicate up at GSPartner’s Atlanta, Georgia occasion, the Ponzi scheme shortly put collectively a observe up in Dubai.
We’ve already lined MLM business determine Eric Worre attending as a speaker. Seems he wasn’t the one one who shouldn’t have been there.
Showing solely in promo materials put out by GSPartners was Floyd Mayweather.
Mayweather has evidently signed on as a GSPartners “Model Ambassador”. Let’s get into why that’s an issue for the US resident.
GSPartners’ Dubai occasion wasn’t simply an excuse for Josip Heit to attain photograph ops with public figures, the Ponzi scheme additionally launched a sequence of latest funding plans.
On the heart of GSPartners’ new Ponzi scheme are “metaverse certificates” (click on to enlarge).
Metaverse certificates funding positions begin at 49 tether (UDST), and cap out at 700,000 USDT
- Proxima Centauri – pay a 49 USDT charge after which make investments as much as 500 USDT to obtain an annual 180% ROI for 18 months
- Rigil Kentaurus – pay a 149 USDT charge after which make investments as much as 2000 USDT to obtain an annual 215% ROI for twenty-four months
- Mercury – pay a 399 USDT charge after which make investments as much as 10,000 USDT to obtain an annual 225% ROI for 30 months
- Venus – pay an 899 USDT charge after which make investments as much as 25,000 USDT to obtain an annual 280% ROI for 36 months
- Earth – pay a 1500 USDT charge after which make investments as much as 50,000 USDT to obtain an annual 320% ROI for 48 months
- Mars – pay a 2500 USDT charge after which make investments as much as 75,000 USDT to obtain an annual 360% ROI for 54 months

- Neptune – pay a 50,000 USDT charge after which make investments as much as 700,000 USDT to obtain an annual 480% ROI for 78 months
GSPartners additionally introduced a partnership with BDSwiss, by means of which the corporate guarantees each day returns.
If a GSPartners affiliate maintains a 3rd of the max funding quantity at any given tier (e.g. for Proxima Centauri 1/3 of 500 USDT = 166 USDT), for eighteen months, a 300% bonus ROI on the certificates charge paid can also be paid out.
On their web site, BDSwiss claims to supply “Foreign exchange and CFD funding providers to greater than one million shoppers worldwide.”
Regardless of the US making up nearly all of visits to GSPartners’ web site, and the third most to BDSwiss’ web site, BDSwiss should not registered with the SEC.
That brings us to Floyd Mayweather.
You received’t discover any point out of GSPartners on Floyd Mayweather’s social media accounts. There’s a very good motive for that we’ll get to in a bit.
What Josip Heit bought for the undisclosed sum of cash he paid Mayweather, was an look on the Dubai occasion (together with grand entrance photo-op), dinner with Floyd, a “stay interview” (which I haven’t seen wherever), and Mayweather sporting a Lydian World t-shirt on the boxing occasion he was additionally in Dubai for.
Why does any of this matter?
In November 2018 the SEC sued Floyd Mayweather for failing to reveal funds from three cryptocurrency firms.
The SEC’s orders discovered that Mayweather didn’t disclose promotional funds from three ICO issuers, together with $100,000 from Centra Tech Inc.
The SEC order discovered that Mayweather didn’t disclose that he was paid $200,000 to advertise the opposite two ICOs.
The SEC sued Centra Tech eight months earlier in April, alleging the corporate
orchestrat(ed) a fraudulent preliminary coin providing (ICO) that raised greater than $32 million from 1000’s of buyers final 12 months.
The SEC’s criticism alleges that Sohrab “Sam” Sharma and Robert Farkas, co-founders of Centra Tech. Inc., masterminded a fraudulent ICO wherein Centra provided and bought unregistered investments by means of a “CTR Token.”
In parallel proceedings, the DOJ filed legal fees had been filed in opposition to Centra Tech’s co-founders.
Mayweather didn’t contest the SEC’s lawsuit. As a substitute he settled for $300,000 in disgorgement, plus an extra $300,000 tremendous with $14,775 in prejudgment curiosity.
Right here once more we’ve Mayweather once more fronting a fraudulent funding scheme, albeit extra discreetly from his camp – probably as a result of his earlier SEC run-in.
GSPartners and their promoters, once more nearly all of whom are primarily based within the US, don’t have any qualms about splashing Mayweather round because the face of their cryptocurrency Ponzi scheme.
Acknowledged on the time of Mayweather’s settlement by Enforcement Division Co-Director Steven Peikin;
Buyers must be skeptical of funding recommendation posted to social media platforms, and shouldn’t make selections primarily based on superstar endorsements.
Social media influencers are sometimes paid promoters, not funding professionals, and the securities they’re touting, no matter whether or not they’re issued utilizing conventional certificates or on the blockchain, could possibly be frauds.
Josip Heit’s MLM crypto funding fraud started with Karatbars Worldwide.
After KaratGold Coin flopped, Heit went on to launch GSPartners. After GSPartners’ G999 Ponzi scheme ran dry, Heit bungled a sequence of failed initiatives in Dubai (what occurred JOne Tower leases?).
That culminated in Lydian World and the present Metaverse Certificates Ponzi scheme, run by means of LYS token.
GSPartners continues to manipulate G999’s public buying and selling worth, however in any other case the token has been deserted.
Like Eric Worre, Floyd Mayweather ought to know higher.
At time of publication SimilarWeb attributes the US as the most important supply of visitors to GSPartners’ web site (57%). It’s an analogous story for Lydian World’s web site, with the US contributing 62% of visitors.
Neither GSpartners, Lydian World or proprietor Josip Heit are registered with the SEC.
