1. Dear Sir/Madam, first of all please introduce yourself. What is your name and your position in the program.

Hey my name is Leah H. Walker. President of International Consumer Marketing (ICM) for Envision Labs Inc.

2. How many people are running your program?

Envision Labs Inc. currently employes 22 professionals.

3. Why did you decide to open online investment program?

For far to long, the risk and instability of the online investment world has ruined the spirits and confidence of the ordinary investor. As well as drained his wallet. So when we were developing the concept of Envision Labs Inc. in early 2007, and our investment vehicles, we wanted to make it as simple as possible for you as our investor. We did this by eliminating all the clutter of accounts openings, passwords remembering and so forth. We also made it clear that we were NOT another skyrocketing daily interest, and dream crushing, company that kept costing the regular investor money.

4. Where are you based?

We are based in the Republic of Panama. This is due to the the favorable panamanian tax legislation.

5. Are you a registered company, If yes, where is the company registered?

Yes we are a registered Panamanian company. (Company Card: 602708 Company Document:1289591) .

Our incorporations documents can be seen in a snippet format on our site, if you want the full package you are welcome to contact our support department directly via email.

7. When did the program launch?

For full details on this matter, please see our investment site, where you can find full investment prospectus from each fund available for download as a PDF file.

9. Can you show any proof of your trading results to public?

Unfortunately we cannot share this information publicly. We would lose our competitive advantage if such information were disclosed publicly.

In the last days almost all perfectmoney exchangers stopped accepting perfectmoney, or they increased exchange fee to 10-15%. It has triggered many speculations, so we want to share on of them. The same history was with the Liberty Reserve recently, although some of the observers point that we can`t compare these situations. Here is one of the e-mail speculation that we have received from one of our visitors. We don`t estimate information included, we encourage to do it oneself:

Perfect Money is an international scam, organized around a few sites (media, hosting, hyip, exchangers), run by international scammers based in Russia. Today the situation is clear: NOBODY wants Perfectmoney anymore. Most exchangers do not accept Perfectmoney now, or charge very high fees. It means that if you have, now, some Perfectmoney yet, try to exchange or sell it as soon as possible, even with a high rate, as it will be soon completely impossible! The last exchangers that accept Perfectmoney are waiting their payments since a few WEEKS now, and will more than probably completely stop accepting this dead e-currency very quickly.

Remember e-gold! Most of us have money in our e-gold account: NICE DIGITS ON A SCREEN, but for sure not usable money!

FACT: The Hellenic bank in Cyprus is about to close the Perfectmoney account (CY02005002400002400781226901). That will be the 4th bank that kicks the ass of these scammers! This should be a good reason for Perfectmoney to decide to terminate their business and leave the building.

Perfectmoney continues to announce some “new features”, clearly the last attempts to get money before the runaway. In the same time, Perfectmoney is trying to eliminate his major competitors on the e-currency market: The 3 last months, Libertyreserve was attacked by DOS on a regular basis and every week or so their website came unavailable. Since 4 days now, Ecumoney is the target of the DOS attacks of perfectmoney. The perfectmoney scammers probably imagine that by making their competitors unavailable, users can not exchange their perfectmoney for other e-currencies.

Today I would like to publish a review of Silver Lodge program run by Ryan Batiste. The reason is that I am watching this project for a long time and it proved itself to be a long-term and reliable program and a great investment opportunity for a serious investors.

Most of the on-line investment programs are not so transparent. Silver Lodge is different. This program is unique in the on-line investment world.  Silverinvest Ltd is a legal entity incorporated and operating in England and Wales.  It`s very easy to verify their company status,  just go to the Companies House site and place the Company number (06789875) into the field. You should see this information:

Although, Silver Lodge is a private club. It means that not just anyone can get in. Sometimies the program is re-open for new members, so be in touch with new updates of this program.

So how are Louise Batiste and his partner Dominique  investing members’ money? They claim that they purchase silver directly from select mining companies below wholesale price. Then they retail silver to coin manufacturers and into fine jewelry.

The accepted payment processors are different. Currently they accept  Liberty Reserve, PerfectMoney, Strictpay, Solidtrustpay and Alertpay.  The minimum amount of investment is only $10, so everyone is able to make a test spend.

About the plans, there are three options to choose from when making an investment with Silver Lodge, Weekly, Bi-Weekly, Monthly and special plan called: 140. Detailed investment plans:

As you probably noticed in this program you are able to earn much more than in any bank or investment fund.

Silver-Lodge is using NeverSay script,  and they host their site on HushHosting services, with a great DDoS protection.

From my experience I have to say thay their support is responding very  quickly and my questions and problems are handled quickly and accurately and downtime is very minimal. Physical postal address, telephone number and proof of their investment activities are available for a verified members.

Summary: I am for about 4 years in this industry, as a monitor admin and a regular investor, and I have to say that Silver Lodge is one of my favorites and it`s an interesting investment opportunity that everyone should have in their portfolio. In my opinion program activity like SilverLodge rebuild confidence to on-line investment programs ruined by a world scammers.

Today we want to share with all of you a conversation we had with Michael Atkinson, who is a support/PR of “SportArbs Limited” investment program. It is a real pleasure for M-M blog to present this interview.

1. Dear Sir, first of all please introduce yourself.
What is your name and your position in the sportarbs.com?

I’m Michael Atkinson and I full fill a support/PR position in SportArbs Limited. I’m answering your questions together with Klaus Schumann who is working as a Senior Arbs Expert, in case of certain questions related to our betting strategies.

2. Why did you decide to open your service? What is the main purpose  of Sportarbs?

Due to the risk on the regular investment markets, including but not limited to Forex, stocks and commodities SportArbs developed a system to automatically place bets on various bookmaker sites. We did use this system a long term internally, however, we felt this could be something a wider audience would be interested in. This also gave us the possibility to place more bets, with higher sums to achieve a greater return.

3. How long has your service been on-line, when did the operation begin?

The service as is, for the public, got introduced to it on April the 11th of 2009. Our system, the arbitrage betting solution we did develop, is active since approx 2006. With this in mind we can conclude we have certainly in-field knowledge as well as an educated staff at this point.

4. Please introduce your team. How many people are running your service?

We do have 12 peoples operating our system. Marketing experts who watch the arbitrage market in order to find new opportunities to place bets on, PR officers to visit certain high depositors in person to explain the benefits and use of the system, bookmakers in order to communicate with arbitrage companies and to keep track on our business, accounts to produce the papers for either the government and/or our inverters, our support division and our technicians who make sure our system remains online and operating.

5. What is your experience with Sports Betting? What is your professional background?

I did answer this I felt in the previous questions, however, this is written by Klaus Schumann who we did introduce earlier as Senior Arbs Expert has a 10 year experience as a traditional bookmaker and a history of being a professional arbitrage better.

6. Where are you based? Are you a registered company, if yes, where is the company registered?
Can I visit your office?

SportArbs is part of an officially registered United Kingdom private company limited by shares (LTD).
The United Kingdom is one of the countries that offer hassle free the opertunity to operate on the arbitrage field. For this reason we do bank and held office in the United Kingdom as well on the Island of Main.
Visiting isn’t an issue, just make sure you make an appointment and reason of visit so we can make sure the right person to speak to assist you is in place.

7. Are you a hyip (high yield investment program)

If you mean by HYIP a structure as shown here; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-yield_investment_program we can assure you we don’t operate that way.
Due to arbitrage betting being one of United Kingdom’s most old fashion investing ways there are allot of requirements to full fill and follow which are regullary inspected by the (local) government. All profits we make are made from arbitrage deals.

8. What protections against DDoS attacks do you have? Is investors money safe in your service? Where is the server located?

Our website and servers are hosted by Dragonara in the United Kingdom. As said we are based in the United Kingdom and arbitrage deals are allowed to be performed in the United Kingdom. To avoid any issues for either us or our investors we chose to locate the hosting in the United Kingdom.

Our routing does so called null-route DDos or other malicious attacks, in order to keep information stored on our servers in a secure environment. Dragonara is 24/7 reachable for us in case of anything, this reason we can guarantee an uptime of about 99%.

9. Are there any limits to how much money I can fund into your program?

Limits are certainly in place on our program. We do have to do so in order to follow certain Know Your Client (KYC) policies in the United Kingdom. However for people who wish to make a greater deposit we offer the service of a personal meeting with one of our PR advisers. We will simply fly to the investor and have the papers signed in a manual fashion.

10. Why don`t you return principal amount to investors?

Due to the fact our system automatically performs all betting and deposits with (investors) money, it’s very difficult to do a cash-back at the end-point of the program.
The return on the other hand as we offer is clear and simply just made by arbitrage bets.
It’s simply impossible and you most likely know this better then us, to offer a higher return with the current market situation.

11. You claim on your site that: “a compounding rate cannot be changed after investment is made”, but if someone set a compounding to 0-20%, he will not be in profit in your program. Why do you allow to set
no-profitable compounding percent and why do you disallow to change it later?

As mentioned previously, all funds deposited to our program will automatically be send over to the arbitrage deals that do full-fill the investors configuration. It’s slightly impossible to ‘book-back’ the money or adjust the plan later on. Those that are willing to seriously invest will follow the certain math schemes as described on our
site before making an investment we felt, however, we don’t prohibit the client to later on re-invest for another 42 days with his earnings set to a 100% compounding rate.

12. What is your relation to arbstrading.com Company? What does it mean that “We worked with this company”?

I’ve to apology for not being authorized to answer this partial question.

13. Do you offer a referral program?

We do work with a 3-level deep referral program in case to make it interesting for our clients to introduce there friends, relatives or associates to our program. The first stage is at 7 percent.

14. How is working your “Stabilization fund”? It is necessary to create such fund for a “risk-free business”?

As every other investing company we do have to have a certain fund. It’s regulated by law and it gives us the opportunity to have a so called reserve. In case of any non-expected non-betting holiday we do have funds in order to pay our clients.

15. Is it really a risk-free business? You have to open accounts at many bookmakers, some of them are not reliable or they process your withdrawal requests for a long time. Sometimes some bets are canceled or changed. How do you reconcile it?

We can assure that arbitrage betting done in our fashion is risk free. With the bookmakers we deal we do have a long-time trust relationship. For this reason we can guarantee a quick payout from there companies to our trust account. Our investors won’t notice any
delays in case they occur. Even if they do we still have our stabilization fund to perform payouts with.

16. What kind of support do you offer to your clients? Any distinction  for VIP investors with large deposits?

We do offer various levels of support, for regular investors (< $ 10.000), we do offer support by email, for senior investors < $100.000 we assign a personal investment manager to assist the client with his needs and we offer 24/7 phone support. For
VIP investors > $ 100.000 we do offer support in person. This means one of our advisers will fly in person to the client to assist him with his needs.

17. What are your plans for the future? Do you plan to add more payment processors?

We do have various plans settled for future expanding. However these remain now in research/learning stage so until it’s time we won’t disclosure these. We did plan to adjust certain information on our website and include a so called blog on our site in order for our clients to easily follow news, updates and changes in an open environment.
Since we already take Perfect Money, Liberty Reserve and bank wire we don’t feel any expansion on this field is needed.

18. What makes sportarbs.com unique from other investment on-line opportunities? What are the main advantages you have over? Tell me a few reasons to join in your program.

SportArbs is unique in it’s kind due to the fact we use a self-developed and maintained investment environment in order to anticipate automatically on arbitrage betting.
We do offer a transparent and reasonable return, due to the credit/market crisis stocks, Forex or real estate won’t bring in profit. With our platform we offer a real, risk-free business to invest in and earn money from.

19. Question from Roman, admin nolimitinvestments.com service:
Would your automatic software work always? What about a summer time? There is less possibilities for betting

Our system has been tested for over a year. This did include indeed the Daylight Saving Time.
We can reveal we make use of the so called Network Time Protocol (NTP) in order to assign the correct GMT. This way our software won’t be affected by any time zone change.
During the summer there are an equivalent number of opportunities to perform arbitrage deals.

20. What is your opinion about money-monitor services?

We do respect the work as been done by money-monitors. However we do notice a close tie to the earlier mentioned HYIP project. We would like to distance ourself from such as it isn’t something we would like to be labeled/associated with.
Still we think it is good to point new investors at the risks of investing and/or investment programs and we do hope to contribute with some useful information for them.

21. Anything you wish to add yourself?

We would like to add that sportarbs.com is a really top-notch project where everybody can make an investment and earn a decent, transparent and reasonable return.
Now the stocks are dropping and other investment opportunities become risky we are glad to introduce the audience a new way in order to achieve an interesting financial return.
In case of any more questions don’t hesitate to contact our support division at:
support@sportarbs.com

Thank you!

Trainex – well known exchenge service – Starting from today stop working with Liberty Reserve payment system.

Trainex service was an official exchanger of Liberty Reserve. What happened? We will not convince who’s Guilty of current situation, we will just publish correspondence history between Liberty Reserve and Trainex and official Trainex position:

Liberty Reserve appeared to be scammers. LR accounts are hacked, we do not work with LR anymore!

On February 23 we found 47, 000 USD missing from your account in Liberty Reserve.
Here is the screenshot of our account:

We have contacted LR but during the first two days we received only the replies of support service which were more like the responses of the bots rather than the replies of the human beings. All the messages contained one and the same information: LR does not bear any responsibility for the money stolen from users’ accounts!

In two days after we found our funds missing we were introduced to some Eric Paltz who has allegedly a person from “Business department”. During the following two days that person was dealing with our problem trying to understand how that could happen though no certain information was disclosed to us.

group, totally 27 experts.

4. What is your opinion about the current financial crisis? Will the
current financial crisis influence for your program stability?

Honestly saying we don’t feel any negative influence of crisis on our
company. I think during this crisis weak and noncompetitive companies
will vanish, and we don’t have such plans. We’ve already survived 2001
crisis and have our own crisis-overcoming strategy. We work the same
and even more effective as we did previous years. Our investors feel
the confidence with our work, we pay without any delays and provide
the service to satisfy all needs.

It’s not a secret and everybody who tried to trade on forex knows that
day income can reach even 100-200%. You can see that our offers
1.2-2.8% are absolutely real and possible. Our traders multiply
investors funds so that even after paying 3% daily (+0,2% if 100%
compounded) huge amount of money left. These money are used as
stabilization fund to protect investors right to withdraw money
available or even cancel the contract. This security states is our
guarantee that in any case we carry out our obligations.

6. What is your opinion about current situation of e-currency arena?
What payment processors do you accept?

In our work we choose only reliable partners to provide our service.
Nowadays among e-currencies LibertyReserve and PerfectMoney are the
most trustable, that’s why we accept these e-currencies. And of course
for investor’s convenience we also accept bank wire transfers.

7. Is it possible to withdraw my deposit before its maturity date?

Yes, of course, our investor can cancel the contract before it’s end,
but we notice that in this case cancellation fee is 25% of initial
deposit. (investor gets only 75% of deposit)

8. What protections against DDoS attacks do you have? Is investors
money safe in your service?
Where is the server located?

. We fully understand the importance of keeping investor’s money safe,
that’s why we use strong DDoS protection providers to preserve any
money losses. Our server is located in the USA . We guarantee that
working wit AvexTrade in absolutely safe.

support. We also have a group of managers who work with VIP investors
personally.

10. What are your plans for the future? Do you plan to add more PP
options?

Although we achieved success in our work and what we do we’re
not going to stop, we develop and improve our service. Our innovation
manager and his team are working hard to provide the latest technology
and services to our investors.

Monitor details of AvexTrade program

When the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries meets at its Vienna headquarters on Friday it will be reminded of just how slippery the price of oil can be, and how little control the cartel has over its price.

Faced with a the possibility of a global recession and a sharp decline in energy demand, OPEC will discuss slashing oil production in an emergency meeting.

OPEC president Chakib Khelil, Algeria’s oil minister, said there could be a “significant” reduction in the organization’s daily output of 29 million barrels.

The organization considers the market to be oversupplied by two million barrels a day, but it has yet to agree on the size of the cut. This lack of agreement could hinder its efforts to control prices.

“Two million barrels a day is a very big number and it’s not that easy to do,” said Joseph Stanislaw, an energy expert and independent senior advisor at the consultancy Deloitte & Touche. “It’s possible. It’s doable. But the question is how long it takes them to agree.”

Stanislaw said it’s impossible to predict whether a production cut would actually stop the price plunge, given the severity of the economic crisis and the volatility in international markets.

“OPEC’s challenge is the challenge that the entire world is facing: all previous rationales of what makes prices go up or down are all up for grabs,” said Stanislaw. “No one knows how to establish a value anymore.”

Khelil told Dow Jones reporters on Wednesday that non-OPEC members would go along with the cut.

A recent statement from Deputy Prime Minister Igor Sechin of Russia – a non-OPEC nation vying for the top-producer title from Saudi Arabia – said on Wednesday that his country would set aside oil reserves in an attempt to control prices. But he said it would not cut production.

Manouchehr Takin, an analyst at the Center for Global Energy Studies, said a production cut probably would drive down prices, at least in the short term. But Takin added that oil prices are difficult to project because they are influenced by fluctuations in the international markets. But for the near future, he expects demand to continue to weaken.

“There will be even less demand in the coming months because the weakening in the global economy will continue,” said Takin.

Prices jumped by $2.80 to $74.25 a barrel on Monday, as investors first weighed a potential supply cut from OPEC. But these gains soon disappeared as investors bet that OPEC wouldn’t be able to control prices through cuts.

Interview with admin of PanaMoney program:

Recently we have found a new managed Forex trading tool offered by PanaMoney Technologies, Inc. We could not help but get in contact with Mr. Fernando Montero, the President and Director of this company, to satisfy our curiosity and find out more about the trading system.

Q. Hello Mr. Montero. Please, introduce yourself and give us the idea of what your company has to offer to its clients.

A. Hi everybody. I’m Fernando Montero representing PanaMoney Technologies, Inc. We are pleased to offer the best in kind automated trading system allowing our clients to open managed Forex accounts on our website (WWW.PANAMONEY.NET) and by investing into the largest and fast-growing markets of the world to make the profits no other company’s are likely to offer.

Q. Could you be more specific about your company? How long has it been in the business?

A. PanaMoney Technologies, Inc. is a legally registered company with its principal place of business in Panama City, Panama, but as our business involves Forex trading and Internet our commercial interests spread far beyond any specific territory. Our actual address in Panama is 50th Street, Global Plaza Tower, 19th Floor, Suite H. PanaMoney is a rather young company, registered in March 2008, but it was established in order to unite the best professional skills and knowledge, large experience and enthusiastic efforts of our highly motivated employees who wanted to be a part of something new and contribute to the development of managed trading worldwide. They all, as well as I, have been in this international business for 5 years at least.

Q. How big is your company?

A. As we are still rather young as a company we currently have 23 employees who all are the core elements of the company. We go for the efficiency rather that size, so it’s better to have a few responsible and highly-trained professionals than many unskilled employees. But it does not mean we will stop on these 23. We have rather huge plans for the company’s prospective development, including human resources issues, and we are open to all new talents who have something to offer to the company.
We provide career opportunities to those interested in mathematics, finance, programming and communication with clients and who can work in our departments: Finance, Technical and Software, Marketing and Customer Support. Currently we have 7 market analysts who trade for the company, 8 technical and software professionals, 5 employees in Customer Support and 2 in Marketing.

Q. Today there are quite a few options for those who want to invest in Forex. What is so unique about your company? What advantages do you have?

A. I would say that there is a lack of good systems that can bring real and stable profit to their clients. We are the one that is client-oriented meaning that we make our clients’ money work as we do our own. In addition, we do it the best possible way and through a user-friendly interface. All our advantages come together in our unique trading system, which include:
• Transparency: our clients can see the company’s trading history as well as the history of all transactions they make. That is what makes us unique compared with other managed Forex trading companies;
• Live real-time trading so they can monitor the market situation and our entry thereto;
• Selection of a currency pair to trade: the clients choose the currency pair to trade so they can take the maximum profits of the currency with the best results on the market ;
• Profits paid daily: the interest earned during the day goes to the clients’ accounts on the next day.

• “No loss” guarantee: no loss from the negative trading results is deducted from the clients’ accounts; all investments are insured with PanaMoney Safety Fund;
• Beneficial referral program: we pay 5% live-long referral commission from every referred client’s investment and reinvestment.

This interview was made to explain some doubts and slander about Brian Krassenstein the person which came in the last time.

Question 1: Brian Krassenstein, you, as the leader of Talkgold forum and with more than 100,000 members and 14,500+ subscriptions, what is your goal?

Well, as many people are unaware, Our parent company sold talkgold back in November of 2008, however I have still remained on for the time being as the forum manager. As part of the current management team, I know the owners are looking to expand the core discussion of talkgold into just about every online money making field there is. This will happen over the next 12-18 months.

Question 2: What features do you plan to add to make your forum more attractive to your members?

There will be new folders added in the coming money, as we try and direct Talkgolds attention into a more stable atmosphere. We will try and give away more cash prizes in our cash folder, as well as team up with some of the more lucrative affiliate programs out there to give members some opportunities of their own.

Question 3: Please tell us more about your new project: “Team Earners” (www.teamearners.com). What was the reason to start this service? How is going your project? What is your further planning?

TeamEarners.com was created in partnership between, Myself (Brian Krassenstein), Bradley Pancrose, Richard Gremus, and Edward Krassenstein. The idea was to provide a group in which like minded internet entreprenuers could have a hub for all the latest internet earning strategies and share their experiences for a price, anyone can afford. $13 per 6 months. Teamearners is off to a great start with close to 1000 members and growing.

Question 4: Are you still owner of Talkgold forum?
I read on this site: Emprezio Inc, Brian Krassenstein, and Others Make Large Website Sales that your forum was sold to Akmed Malakar. Can you confirm this information?

Yes the forum was sold to an outside group who owns several large internet based forums. We can not give too many details because of a non-disclosure agreement we have signed. The new owners have the best interest of the memberbase at mind and will run the forum in an honest fashion.

Question 5: I read on internet blogs some accusations directed to your person. Some people accuse you that a few domain names were stolen by you (Brian Krassenstein).
Can you explain to my readers what is nature of these indictments? Is it possible that some people try to ruin your good name? If yes, what is the reason?

Over the years, almost 5 years of running Talkgold, I have met a lot fo great people. Unfortionately in the High Yield investing industry there are hundreds of scammers. You ban one from your forum and suddenly they go out and write all kidns of crazy stuff about you. About the stolen domains….. I am a domain name speculator. I own over 1700 domain name. Back in February of 2008 I purchased a portfolio of several domains, just one of the probably 100+ portfolios I have purchased int he last year. It happened that this portfolio I bought has several stolen domain names in it. Once I found these names were stolen I immediately gave them back to the original owner, despite a financial loss I had to take.

Question 6: Hyip and autosurf arena is not so popular like in the past. After fail of such popular programs like 12DailyPro, Studiotraffic or PIPS (People in Profit System or Pure Investors) people are more prudent and associate hyips as a scams. What do you think about the future of hyip arena?

I have been saying the arena was going to die for years now. It always surprises me and makes a comeback. It is ashame there are so many scams out there. If only a couple legitimate programs would launch then the arena would thrive in my opinion. I don’t see it dying. HYIPs are not much different then casino gambling. There are always people willing to take risks for the big payout.

Question 7: Did you register your account on Switchbladeip forum as a “BK1981″ member? This member was pretending to be Brian, owner of TG forum. He posted on Switchbladeip.com that:

That is my username, but the owner of the forum edited my post to make me look like a thief. I would never post anything like that.

Question 8: code4gold.com administrator on his blog and his forum linked Idetrorce spam bot attack to your person. What is history and your relation to Idetrorce.com website?

Idetrorce was a virus that I saw that people were searching for as a web trend. What I did was register the domain and I had planned on putting up an anti-virus protection tipbook for those infected with that virus. Because that guy claimed I was somehow involved I just let the domain drop and never went forward with my plans.

Question 9: Your ex-moderator “los” has posted on code4gold forum: “TG being a criminal enterprise”. Do you agree with him? Do you plan to make your forum more unfriendly for scammers?

Los is an ex mod banned from talkgold. Read question number 5.

Question 10: Did you ever run a hyip or have you been a part of hyip team?

No I never ran any hyip. Back 4 years ago I was an advertising manager for weeklygold. The owner Mario Degryse ended up being a scammer himself. Since then I promised myself never to get myself associated with any hyip including investing into them in any way.

Question 11: What is your opinion about www.money-monitor.com service?

I like it. It is a breath of fresh air. There are too many monitor sites which look the same. Money-Monitor is unique and looks to be run by honest hard working people. Good job guys.

Question 12: Is there anything else that you would like to add that I didn’t ask about?

I just want to say that anyone investing into HYIPs should in fact look at it as a game of poker. Plan to lose your money, however understand you can also make money. Never put your eggs in one basket and always do your research.

Thanks for the interview!
Brian Krassenstein

It seems that this summer decided to hit all the records. One by one all the payment systems intend to surprise everybody. This time the surprise came from one of the three pillars of the US e-commerce – e-bullion payment processor. Due to the fact that E-bullion is a kind of closed-type company, which doesn’t let any alien to get in, the news about this system is a very rare holiday. Recently there were some rumors that the system will soon follow e-gold as both processors are identical and are based on the same principle. And all the rumors, however, usually have some basis. The recent events in the camp of E-bullion have confirmed this.

The first shocking news came on Tuesday when police has identified a woman stabbed in Century City on Monday evening. The sad “hero” of this tragedy was Pamela Fayed, one of the co-founders of the legend E-bullion. This news has shocked everybody and especially the way of the murder… There are several hypothesizes but they are not confirmed. The trial is in the process. A great tragedy indeed…

But the doom probably decided to check E-bullion for the strength. And following the scary news about Pamela Fayed, the whole community was shocked with the news about the arrest of another founder of E-bullion, James Fayed, the husband of the stabbed woman. The majority was sure that this arrest was related to the death of Mrs. Fayed, however the lawyer of Mr. Fayed insists that his client is charged with illegal money exchange and money-laundering operations.

At the moment James Fayed is at the Ventura County Jail and is going to be transferred to a detention facility in Los Angeles.

Earlier Pamela Fayed was saying that her husband “never got their multimillion-dollar company properly licensed or bonded.” In October the couple has filed for divorce and since that time had been fighting for the company and assets. It is necessary to note that the Fayeds were the only shareholders of the business (Goldfinger Coin & Bullion Sales and e-Bullion) and possessed about $12 million in bank accounts.

The given investigation was started long ago and, according to Jeffrey A. Taylor, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, “digital currency providers everywhere are now on notice that they must comply with federal banking laws, or they will be subject to prosecution.”

At the moment both criminal cases are being investigated and some people do not exclude some connection between them.

On behalf of our dear readers the whole editorial staff expresses their deepest condolences to the family, relatives, friends and co-workers of Pamela Fayed.
