Greetings to my Indian crypto friends!
The last time I posted in your esteemed section was a thread on the subject of the GainBitcoin scam and its owner, Amit Bhardwaj.
Anyone who is interested in a bit of history might like to read it (I see it has an amazing 63,000+ views) here.
The subject of today's post is another scam by another Amit, Jaiswal this time (who also promoted GainBitcoin).
Jaiswal then went onto the Powerhashing scam and then the infamous Asiadigicoin shitcoin.
He's back with another bunch of lies and deception called KOSMOH and, seeing as he has produced a YT video in Hindi on it, I thought this review I have written of it may be of interest to you in India.



KOSMOH is promoted as a crypto "ecosystem", HQ'd in the U.S.A.
They promise all sorts of apps built on their "hybrid blockchain," with an in-house payment token.

It is an MLM (multi-level marketing scheme) with intro and renewal bonuses, a matrix and passive income. Probably the kitchen sink in there too, somewhere.




Kosmoh is being heavily promoted on social media, mainly Facebook and Telegram.


Check out all those bolded buzzwords...
I think KOSMOH is a scam, run by liars and marketed fraudulently.
Here's why I think that.

---

Let's start with their website home page.
Pretty formulaic, full of "impressive" psuedo jargon that says nothing. Stuff like

and so on.

Further down the page we arrive at their Executive Team.
As has been made clear in the Telegram post, the claim is that Kosmoh is based in the U.S., and the Team are reassuringly WASPy. They have that MBA look. Solid professional. And FAKE.


Let's have a look at the Founder and CEO of Kosmoh, "Jim Asche".
But Jim's Linkedin links to Antony Raynor's broken account.
And Jim is actually Aaron Paker with a false beard and glasses.



How about "Pete Isner"?
Also, more relevant here
Pete's Linkedin works, 28 connections and generic "worked at Intel" says fake, fake, fake.
So does Pete's stick on power stubble (the original image is stock)



And so it goes on, fake after fake.
Their blockchain expert "Mia McBride" has even had "Tyler Weah"'s fictional biog cut and pasted to her Linkedin. Sloppy work, scammers.
"Tyler" himself? he does Fiverr videos.



The Development Team all wear stick on glasses in their profile pics. I've checked a coupleof ID's out: naturally, fake.
As we go down this fantasy page we next hit a bizarre Fiverr video, then "WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING" which is always fun and always fake. As they are here.
And then we hit the bottom (in more ways than one) with the much accentuated AMERICAN HQ.
Needless to say, the photos are stock with crude overlay and the Address is an industrial park wasteland.

---

For me, that's completely sufficent proof that this Kosmoh thing has been totally invented by some sloppy, cliched scammers and that the whole scheme has been designed with one thing in mind, the
 
Make no mistake, this a classic MLM scam setup, so I wonder who'll we find behind its promotion?
Let's start with that shithole from Hell, Facebook.
Oh look, more MLM cliche, a KOSMOH POWER TEAM.

And immediately we find one of the most odious of the odious: Amit Jaiswal

Jaiswal is a shiny suited, slimy worm who I have encountered before.
He was promoting the infamous $300m GainBitcoin scam for the other Amit (Bhardwaj, who is grinding his way, hopefully to a long stretch, through the tortuous Indian legal process at the moment) and after that collapsed, set up Powerhashing, his own fraudulent Cloud Mining set up and then the shitcoin AsiaDigiCoin.
I wrote about them, here and here and here.
His Kosmoh promotion is dull, but his target audience is naive and uneducated in investment.


He also has a Hindi language ou tube video, you get the drift from this shot



The Facebook Group Admin is a Russian who goes by the name of Dima Chugunkin, a self described "Influencer"...
He's listed on TG as a $15k buy-in Affiliate, presumably needing to replace his Cloud Token income, now that scam is in terminal phase.

---

So, there we have it, Kosmoh the scam.
It won't come up on the radar of cryptogeeks too much, until it hits the news as yet another crypto scam facilitated by social media, with hundreds of naive victims that some will comfortably blame for being stupid.

A new publish0x spam account, reported.

The same approach for both: learn your subject, read, understand.

Interesting price action over the last couple of months, ~$0.60 to ~$30.00 and back to $10ish.
Is that "organic growth", or are P&D 50% pre-mined shitcoins coming back into fashion?

Laughing at me? If you like.
Actually, you're laughing at all the misguided investors who gave $10m to a bunch of incompetents to play at mining, in the hope that they might actually get a return based on trusting you. What a mistake that was.
Your scheme has been a comedy of errors and underperformance, from which you personally have done alright (got yourself some crap motorbikes and a few Rolexes) but your investors victims have just turned into bagholders of a wash traded token now worth a few cents.
The only thing you got right was timing, and that was by accident.
Two years ago the crypto world was a different place, perfect for some amateurs like you to put a scheme together, with a fictional White Paper (which you abandoned almost immediately) to part FOMO sufferers from their money.

I simply pointed out (as did others) the overwhelming likelihood of what's happened since actually happening, by commenting on your more obvious complete lies.
Remember a few of the more ridiculous ones? Probably not, you've told so many.


By the way, have you heard of something called the "halving"?

You're a busy man, Chandra.
How did the million tonne iron ore deal go?
And the gold sale?
 

Read the fucking thread before you post for sig money.
And don't be such a hypocrite: "borrowing is terrible", but gambling is worth promoting?

What does? Bleach, maybe.


Define "true democracy".

In the vague spirit of the thread (and the gangs?), I offer Ovid and his Exitus Acta Probat. 

Yeah, uncollateralized, interest free and atomic. But if you think you can just turn up and borrow, you're in for a disappointment.
Read and learn.

This thread should be in Altcoin Duscussion.

I think he's actually referring to what I wrote about in the post above. Borrowing without collateral thru DeFi "Flash Loans". They are both short and simple.

If you mean ETH/DeFi flash loans then, yes, they're quite simple. lol.

Here's how you can re-finance a loan

 
When are "flash loans" a legit function of a smart contract, and when are they "Attacks"?

Read this (the above quote comes from this article).

This question/thread should be in Altcoins.


 

Well, doesn't time fly?
I've been researching the general subject of "trading records (esp. Bitmex) ways and methods of falsification". An interesting topic, given the number of incredibly (literally) successful traders out there wanting punters to copy their trades/part with their money based on seemingly authentic sreenshots. That's still a work in progress, so I'll complete the Global Wealth Fund review and make a seperate effort post about that.
Global Wealth Fund's website landing page now shows this


over the top of their stolen Masonicesque logo. Why's that then?

Having cleared up most of this family tree


we are now left with the part of the matrix that sells investment opportunities, based on "inventions" claimed to have been made by the bogus entity known as Rosslyn Technology.
This includes:
Corliss Global
Winston Trades
Edison Trades
Edison Fund
Templar Fund

If one goes to Corliss Global, one is met by this claim


and this

The only evidence of "their team", rather unsurprisingly, are all stock images a.k.a. fakes.
Corliss have no Net footprint whatsoever.
Oh, not so, 3 followers on Facebook.
Corliss give the usual Chrysler Building address.
Funnily enough, there is a Corliss associated with that landmark. His name was Jeb, and he jumped off of it.

The role of Corliss is pivotal to the monetization of the all the bogus entities listed so far in this thread. Corliss is the Sales and Franchise arm of the whole GWF scheme.
They sell franchises in:
Principatus, fake from beginning to end.
A franchise will cost you £250k, plus $100k p.a. rent.
This refers to the claim that all Bitcoin ATM's are in their "network". See previous post.
A bargain $10k.
This actually "coming soon". They appear to have given up on the toxic Privato and Digitas brands. See previous posts.
$250k upfront, plus $100k a year. Considering they say it doesn't exist, and I'm saying it doesn't exist even if they say it exists, that's a lot of money for "coming soon"..
This is the one that's "(licensed in the USA)", not. Once again, see previous.
$50k and $50k.
A couple of quotes
$25k buy in, plus $25k a year.
Don't visit edisonbot.com, security warning.

And, associated with that, today's subject


This is what they charge for the path to riches


So, $50k upfront for a turnkey "Hedge Fund." Plus another $50k min. per year.

"Successful Franchises" listed:
Edisonbot (security warning on website)
WinstonTrades (security warning on website)
and our very own
Templar Fund.

To access these riches, it's not neccessary to stump up $50k in cash. You can also become a "broker"



Let's look at that first line: you can have 20% of Templar Fund or Edison Fund's profit. Well, not Edison Fund, they're offline.
So, Templar Fund.
They've recently tidied up their website, there doesn't seem to be any reference to the Global Wealth Fund these days.
Ok.
This is an interesting assertion.
A franchise bought from a US based company, offering a passive income (thus being treated as a "security")....

and, this life changing opportunity is open to everyone

Ok, you might say, lots of innuedo but look at the results!
Very true, whether the Templar Fund account on the forum is a franchisee or a honeypot run by whoever's behind the Global Wealth Fund, how do you explain those ROI's, fully documented as they are?
Can't ask him unfortunately, he locks his thread.
Anyway, are these 'results' real? If they're not, how do they do it?
That's what I've been researching.

On the subject of Mr. Viehman.
He, along with others in this scheme, was/is also involved in the MAPR/U.K.Financial/DFS scam.

If you are going to lazily copy paste tweets here, maybe remove the icon code text?
I see you claim on Twitter


On what is that claim based?

Still waiting for proof of your accusation.

Just thought I'd check my favorite clever people's coin, ~360 hours on from the mishap that lead to the Big Red Button Push.
Had a look at the Status page

Excellent.
Take it steady boys. Don't want a clusterfuck, do we?

Had a look at Coinmarketcap.
$350 million wiped off the cap so far.
But wait, a ray of hope.... CMC have got this devilishly clever new thing called FCAS. There are such clever people in this space.


Ok, a metric based on those three bolded things, got it.
User Activity
Well, I'd say that's been pretty modest over the last couple of weeks.
Developer Behavior
Hmm.
Slow? Thorough? Confidence inspiring? Does it factor in EE?
Market Maturity
Not sure. Most things shrink as they get older, is that what they mean by "maturity", because the "market" certainly has?

Anyway, how has IOTA's "health" done over the last two weeks?
During a period when it has shut down, been robbed and lost over a third of its market cap, simpleton me would guess "Not very well".
Nonsense.
We have an IOTA BULL RUN!
Marvellous! Congrats to both teams!

Not according to your link it wasn't.
Doesn't matter.
Neither does the meaning of "i mean 9360$".....


Oh, re: your second 'trade', the Tether Binance one, you mention/imply your long entry was @ 8600. The low was 8633.

Just one last question: in your plan to "manage 1 BTC portfolios", would that be via API key or will you be asking people to send the >1 BTC to you?

I didn't ask you that, I asked you why you closed your short $400 before support was hit.
