OmegaPro has weaved a “hackers!” narrative into its collapse.
As per an “official assertion” despatched out earlier in the present day, OmegaPro writes (language errors are quoted verbatim);
Following the final weeks evaluation of the technical points OmegaPro has been going through, it’s now clear we have now been focused of a sustained and complicated cyber-attack by an unknown organised felony group.
Sometimes MLM scams roll out “hackers!” as a part of an exit-scam. Right here, OmegaPro are utilizing “hackers!” to retroactively cowl up a collapse.
Following disabling of withdrawals in early November, BehindMLM known as OmegaPro’s collapse on November twenty seventh.
Personally I feel that is only a ruse to get OmegaPro via the vacation interval, the place Ponzi schemes usually expertise elevated withdrawal requests.
Final 12 months the infamous CashFX Group Ponzi scheme additionally disabled withdrawals round this time – for a similar motive.
As a part of their “hackers!” ruse, OmegaPro claims to be working with “Hacker Home”.
To guard our group and members, we have now engaged “Hacker Home” from London; one of many worlds [sic] main cyber safety Corporations to counter this risk.
While we try and implement efficient counter measures the platform will sadly stay unavailable till we will assure the security of our group.
I think OmegaPro’s “hackers!” points shall be resolved simply earlier than or simply after Christmas.
So who’re Hacker Home and why are they supposedly helping one of many largest MLM Ponzi schemes in operation in the present day?
From their web site;
Hacker Home was created to shut the talents hole rapidly, effectively and successfully. Taught by world-renowned moral hackers, our college students are plunged head-first into actual world cyber-attack simulations and are assessed throughout a wide range of sensible assignments designed to cowl each angle.
In brief, we educate college students easy methods to assume, act and transfer like a hacker – after which outmanoeuvre them.
Along with academic programs, Hacker Home additionally supplies evaluation companies.
Hacker Home’s “blockchain venture” service begins at $200,000.
Does Hacker Home working with MLM Ponzi schemes change OmegaPro being a collapsed Ponzi scheme? No.
It does nonetheless probably open up Hacker Home to regulatory motion sooner or later.
OmegaPro is run from Dubai, the MLM crime capital of the world. Hacker Home are purportedly primarily based out of the UK.
Hacker Home’s founder, Jennifer Arcuri, claims she is “London and USA primarily based”.
This may very well be a possible in for the SEC and DOJ, though OmegaPro has been cautious to largely goal third-world international locations. UK authorities are notoriously hopeless in relation to MLM associated securities fraud.
As beforehand said, if OmegaPro does re-enable withdrawals, it’s possible going to occur after the Christmas rush.
The take-away although is that OmegaPro is beneath withdrawal legal responsibility strain. Being a Ponzi scheme, that legal responsibility is barely going to worsen over time.
