Rypex Trade Review  –  Ponzi Scheme  – MLM Scam

Website & Company Information

The web domain of the company was privately registered on the 8th of April 2020 and was later updated on 2020–06–29.

According to the company’s marketing materials, Phillip Orr is the CEO of the company. We tried to do some background check, but we couldn’t find anything about the guy. This simply means that Phillip doesn’t exist anywhere outside the company’s marketing materials.

On the official YT channel of the company, all the videos are shot in a virtual office. People involved in the videos looked like hired actors.

In an attempt to look legitimate, the company claims itself as a British company and also provides a U.K incorporation certificate.

Fact: The U.K. is one of the most favourable jurisdictions for scammers, and 90% of all the shady MLMs are registered in the U.K. Also, U.K. incorporation is dirt cheap.

At the time of writing this article, Alexa cites Vietnam (30.9%), Bangladesh (12.8%) and Turkey (4.5%) as top sources of traffic to Rypex Trade’s website. It is highly likely that the admin is operating from any one of these countries.

Conclusion

The company claims of generating external income through automated trading technologies, no specifics given about the same. We couldn’t find any evidence from the company that would allow them to back this claim. No evidence of any kind of trading taking place is provided.

Passive Income

The company is pitching a passive income scheme that would likely get them in trouble with financial regulators because when any MLM company offers a passive investment opportunity, it’s classified as a securities offering. Rypex Trade is not registered with the FCA, meaning the company is illegally offering securities.

Affiliates might also be liable for securities fraud by promoting unregistered securities.

As we all know, the only verifiable source of income going into the company is the new investment.

This is simple maths:

You invest money into the program and then pitch others the same plan. Your income directly depends upon the number of recruits you do and the volume of the investment your affiliates do.

And just like all other MLM Ponzi, when the funds stop coming in, the payouts will end, and it will trigger a system collapse.
