ASIC warns Metafi Yielders to stop fraud, website still violating


If screenshots posted by confederate CEO Michel Daher are to be believed, the Australian Securities and Funding Fee aren’t pleased with Metafi Yielders.

I initially wasn’t going to cowl this as a result of, whereas ASIC is Australia’s prime monetary regulator, it’s additionally a joke.

Scammers from exterior of Australia routinely register shell firms with ASIC, as a result of it’s piss simple to do and there’s no ramifications.

Right here with Metafi Yielders we’ve somebody purportedly in Australia fronting a Ponzi scheme, and all they’ve gotten is a warning telling them to cease.

However I’m getting forward of myself.

Metafi Yielders was incorporatedin Australia as MetafiYielders PTY LTD on March 18th, 2022.

The offered MetafiYielders PTY LTD company deal with is a suburb in Western Australia, which tracks with Daher purportedly being based mostly out of Perth (Perth is the capital metropolis of Western Australia).

The identical day the incorporation was created, MetafiYielders PTY LTD was additionally registered with ASIC.

As a part of Metafi Yielders’ exit-scam, the corporate’s official FaceBook web page was made personal final month.

Nonetheless Dave Kramer of the Metafi Yielders Rip-off – Now What!? FaceBook group, captured a put up from Daher to the group made yesterday.

On ninth of June 2022 Metafiyielders Pty Ltd obtained a warning letter from ASIC see connected copy of the letter.

We have now responded with full compliance and have utilized for the Metafiyielders Pty Ltd to be de-registered.

As per the connected letter, purportedly despatched by ASIC on June tenth by way of electronic mail, the regulator wrote;

Pricey Mr. (censored)

Warning – misuse of ASIC emblem and unlicensed conduct

ASIC is writing to you because the operator of www.metafiyielders.com (the Web site).

ASIC’s considerations

The Web site presents varied funding packages and gives quick time period returns for that funding.

The Web site states:

  • traders can earn ‘Income with out danger on crypto you make investments, stake or switch’;
  • ‘Earn with worthwhile funding packages’;
  • ‘1% and three.3% EVERY DAY for 30 Enterprise Days’;
  • ‘Make investments and get 1% or 3% each Enterprise Day Till Your Web Revenue Reaches 30% or 90%’.
  • The YouTube movies printed on the Metafi Yielders’ YouTube channel misuse the ASIC title and emblem.

Moreover, we’ve obtained reviews from customers who suggested ASIC that they’ve invested cash with you, and of explicit concern is that they allege that they’ve requested a refund of their cash however are unable to withdraw their funds.

ASIC went on to demand Metafi Yielders

  • Instantly take away statements from the Web site and some other on-line presence which counsel you might be licensed by ASIC to hold on a monetary providers enterprise in Australia;
  • Take away any false or deceptive representations from the Web site and/or take down the Web site and stop partaking in false or deceptive conduct;
  • Present a press release of compliance to ASIC throughout the subsequent 48 hours confirming that you’ve got complied with the above necessities;

Asic does not endorse explicit investments. ASIC by no means offers permission to make use of its title or emblem to advertise monetary services or products.

Instantly take away references to ASIC’s title from all on-line materials that has been printed together with the Web site and YouTube movies.

Within the occasion of non-compliance or the place we don’t obtain the requested written affirmation from you inside 48 hours, ASIC might resolve to take acceptable steps to make sure compliance with the legislation.

ASIC might publish warnings on our web site and elsewhere, naming you and/or the Web site; and warn customers no to cope with you.

We may additionally launch details about you to different authorities companies, and get in touch with the area registrar to have the Web site eliminated.

We reserve the proper to take motion any any time now and sooner or later ought to we take into account it acceptable, essential or within the public curiosity to take action.

Movies from Metafi Yielders’ official YouTube account have been deleted a few week in the past – shortly after Daher obtained the ASIC communication.

However what prompted me to place this text collectively is Metafi Yielders’ web site is nonetheless up, nonetheless promoting an unlawful funding alternative and, in violation of ASIC’s demand, nonetheless representing its fraudulent funding alternative has ASIC approval.

So what’s occurring right here?

Initially we all know Michael Daher’s actual title is Michel Daher.

He additionally goes by the alias Micho Nicolas. So until he has one other alias we don’t find out about, or Metafi Yielders was included in another person’s title, I’m unsure what the purpose of redacting the addressee of ASIC’s letter was.

Now with respect to compliance, ASIC gave Daher and Metafi Yielders 48 hours from June tenth to conform. I’m scripting this on June 18th.

Metafi Yielders’ FaceBook group was switched to personal as a result of Daher has entry to it. He has entry to the FaceBook group as a result of when he was enjoying CEO, Daher wanted to stream on there and publish bullshit advertising updates.

Movies have been deleted from Metafi Yielders’ official YouTube channel as a result of Daher has entry to it. He has entry to the YouTube channel as a result of he uploaded his FaceBook streams and different advertising movies to the channel.

Michel Daher doesn’t have entry to Metafi Yielders’ web site.

The web site is and all the time has been accountable for whoever truly ran Metafi Yielders. I’m utilizing previous tense as a result of Metafi Yielders is over. Being an Australian citizen and underneath the jurisdiction of ASIC, Daher’s most likely shitting bricks proper now.

Metafi Yielders’ admins, be it Russians or another person, don’t care. They’ve most likely stopped speaking with Daher altogether. Therefore the radio silence – aside from when ASIC reached out to Daher personally.

Hoping to keep away from prosecution ought to it come to that, Daher has most likely squealed to ASIC and different Australian authorities on who his Metafi Yielders admin contacts are.

Alternatively the Russians have him by the balls (Daher is believed to have household in Australia), and he’s between a rock and a tough place.

Nonetheless responsible of securities fraud and heading up a Ponzi scheme, however not of truly working the present. Monetary manslaughter to Boris’ monetary homicide, so to talk.

Of notice are reviews Daher has fled his dwelling in Perth. Maybe even Australia.

I haven’t been in a position to independently confirm this.

In any occasion, with ASIC now actively concerned and Metafi Yielders’ web site in continued violation of their orders, this will likely be fascinating to observe play out.

I think the Russians will both delete the cited presentation above shortly after that is printed. As toothless as ASIC is likely to be to them, regulatory warmth on the Boris CEO Ponzi manufacturing facility from any jurisdiction isn’t fascinating.

Or, having disappeared, they’ll simply go away Daher holding the bag to face no matter motion ASIC follows up with – which could not be something, given ASIC’s horrendous MLM associated securities fraud observe file.

How a lot Daher was paid to entrance Metafi Yielders isn’t recognized. Irrespective of how a lot it was although, at this level he’s absolutely asking himself if it was price it.
