NextGen, the thrice collapsed Ponzi scheme, held a advertising and marketing occasion in Cyprus between March tenth and twelfth.
On the occasion My Automotive Membership was revealed as NextGen’s new advertising and marketing funnel.
As NextGen’s Managing Director Paul Chalmers defined;
This funnel lets you earn money whilst you’re bringing them (new buyers) in.
My Automotive Membership operates from the stand-alone area “mycarclub.com”.
NextGen isn’t talked about wherever on My Automotive Membership’s web site. Nor are founders Rehan and Rizwan Gohar.
As a substitute, My Automotive Membership pitches itself as a Dubai based mostly “automated software program service powered by crypto”.
Dubai is the MLM crime capital of the world. Sooner or later in 2021, as their BizzTrade Ponzi scheme was collapsing, the Gohar brothers fled the UK for Dubai.
They returned to the UK in late 2021/early 2022 for the BizzTrade Professional reboot – however appear to have maintained undisclosed ties to Dubai by way of My Automotive Membership.
My Automotive Membership prices €149 EUR to enroll and pitches entry to a Mercedes Benz for €29 EUR a month or €319 EUR yearly.
To qualify for entry to a “firm owned” Mercedes Benz C Class or equal automobile, or €600 EUR a month an affiliate should:
- recruit three associates and
- generate a complete downline of not less than 120 associates
Nextgen affiliate family tree has been imported, stacking the deck towards new My Automotive Membership recruits.
Past this, the extra downline associates recruited, a month-to-month fee that grows is paid out:
- whole downline of 240 associates = entry to automobile and €1500 EUR a month
- whole downline of 360 associates = entry to a automobile and €4000 EUR a month
- whole downline of 480 associates = entry to a automobile and €7000 EUR a month
- whole downline of 600 associates = entry to a automobile and €10,000 EUR a month
Naturally to rely in the direction of whole downline necessities, recruited associates have to be paying €29 EUR a month.
On the MLM facet of issues My Automotive Membership operates as a pyramid scheme.
- €50 EUR is earned per affiliate recruited
- €99 EUR is earned if an affiliate recruits three associates inside their first thirty days
If a My Automotive Membership affiliate doesn’t qualify for entry to a automobile after two years, the next decreased qualification/different choices are made out there:
- finish of two years with out qualifying = decreased whole downline qualification to 99 associates, or no automobile and a “vacation”
- finish of three years with out qualifying = decreased whole downline qualification to 90 associates, or no automobile and a “luxurious vacation”
- finish of 4 years with out qualifying = decreased whole downline qualification to 78 associates, or no automobile and a “resort vacation”
- finish of 5 years with out qualifying = decreased whole downline qualification to 60 associates, or no automobile and a “2 folks vacation”
If any of the above decreased qualification or different choices are claimed, the timer is reset again to 12 months one.
Fairly clearly the core concept behind My Automotive Membership is getting others to contribute in the direction of a lease, obtained by way of My Automotive Membership (or no matter shell firm it’s tied to Dubai by way of).
The difficulty from a regulatory perspective is that no retail merchandise are marketed to or bought to retail prospects. This turns into more and more problematic as associates qualify for added month-to-month funds by way of elevated recruitment.
At these ranges, one may even make the argument that, as month-to-month funds are clearly being paid out of affiliate charges, that My Automotive Membership itself is working as a pyramid scheme.
Pay and proceed to pay €29 EUR a month, construct a downline of 240 folks additionally paying in €29 EUR a month and obtain a €1500 EUR month-to-month ROI and so on.
However My Automotive Membership being a advertising and marketing funnel for NextGen, which itself is a 400% ROI Ponzi scheme.
As beforehand acknowledged, Dubai is the MLM crime capital of the world so don’t count on them to do something about NextGen or My Automotive Membership.
NextGen is operated from the UK. Sadly the Monetary Conduct Authority has a observe document of ignoring MLM associated securities fraud.
