After “launching his personal undertaking” and “mendacity to folks for six weeks”, as his traders put it, Terrence Kilos now claims he doesn’t personal Preserve It 100.
Kilos’ announcement comes lower than 48 hours after BehindMLM reported on Kilos pleading responsible to 13 counts of COVID-19 mortgage fraud.
Kilos revealed Preserve It 100 on his “Cash, Ministry and Motivation Passive Earnings” YouTube channel on June ninth, 2023.
[6:04] Earlier than we get into my brand-new undertaking, that I’m so excited to have the ability to share with you as we speak, there have been some glitches within the system as we speak, for these of you that received concerned … and the glitches should be there.
So finally, um, if the glitches are nonetheless there I don’t need you to place any cash into it simply but. However my builders are engaged on that undertaking.
[6:31] Okay-100 is my second undertaking, proper? My second undertaking within the house, not my first undertaking proper?
[9:00] I’m gonna “hold it 100” with you, alright? Now I’m gonna offer you a assure. Not a assure that I’mma get you “x” quantity of {dollars}, I’m gonna offer you a assure that I gained’t steal your cash. Interval.
I’m not gonna run off along with your cash. I don’t care how a lot cash you deposit in your platform, it’s not gonna make me wish to steal your cash.
I don’t have a objective, “Oh, as soon as “x” quantity of {dollars} will get right here I’m leaving. No, I’m making an attempt to place one thing collectively for the group, that won’t rug.
[10:28] Now simply because it’s me behind the undertaking, I do know folks really feel higher however no, don’t carry your life financial savings as a result of it’s Terrence Kilos.
[12:02] Now people I’ll be trustworthy with you. I’ve had this platform able to go for nearly a few months now already. I may have launched this 60 days in the past.
Now the rationale that I didn’t, the rationale that I didn’t launch it, was as a result of you realize, guys I used to be the primary man in C12.
“C12” refers to Carnelian12, a suspected Russian Ponzi scheme that collapsed a number of weeks earlier than Kilos launched Preserve It 100.
At this level we’re twelve minutes into Kilos’ Preserve It 100 launch webinar. I believe it’s fairly apparent he owns and is working the scheme.
Quick ahead to July twenty fourth, and Kilos isn’t so upfront about proudly owning Preserve It 100;
[7:04] I personally am not the proprietor of Okay-100. Sure, paid CEO, paid dealer however not the proprietor.
Naturally, Kilos doesn’t disclose who’s allegedly paying him.
[8:23] I’m making the choice as we speak … for me to again away because the CEO and dealer of the corporate.
The rationale I’ve to again away is clearly I’ve these authorized allegations going.
I’m assuming Kilos is referencing his pending sentencing right here, nevertheless it’s odd to reference them as allegations.
Kilos pled responsible to his prices, that means he accepted the allegations as reality. All that’s left to be decided is how heavy a sentence he will get.
To help the declare he’s not working Preserve It 100, Kilos trots out a UK incorporation certificates;
[8:58] Now people, simply to show to you that I’m not the proprietor of the corporate, I’m gonna present you the official firm registration.
K100 4Real LTD was integrated on July twenty first, 2023. This seems to be a response to BehindMLM outing Kilos because the proprietor of Preserve It 100 in our July ninth assessment.
Kilos might need been acknowledging he owned and ran Preserve It 100 in advertising movies, however this was by no means disclosed on Preserve It 100’s web site.
No matter who registered K100 4Real LTD, a unexpectedly created UK shell firm is finally meaningless.
Opposite to Kilos’ assertions…
[9:34] Now I need you to know that when firms register, this can be a course of for them to do the KYC and all of that stuff.
However I can guarantee you that they’ve been within the technique of doing this previous to launch and (they) lastly received it collectively).
…that there isn’t a KYC concerned in UK shell incorporation.
Incorporating a UK shell firm prices £12 GBP (~$15 USD) to do on-line, takes a couple of minutes and there may be completely no KYC course of concerned.
You’ll be able to enter any Mickey Mouse particulars and Firms Home will settle for your registration and supply you a certificates.
UK shell firms getting used to cover fraudsters has been a documented downside for years.
So what is definitely occurring right here?
Pending additional continuances, Terrence Kilos is at the moment scheduled to be sentenced on September twenty sixth.
He has been charged with fourteen counts of fraud, 13 of which he pled responsible to. These embrace:
- one depend of conspiracy to commit wire fraud – as much as 20 years in jail
- eight counts of wire fraud – as much as 20 years in jail per depend
- three counts of partaking in a financial transaction in property derived from felony exercise – as much as ten years in jail per depend
As per the DOJ’s Might 2021 press-release protecting Kilos’ indictment;
If convicted, the Defendant’s sentence will probably be decided by the Courtroom after assessment of things distinctive to this case, together with the Defendant’s prior felony file, if any, the Defendant’s function within the offense, and the traits of the violation.
In all circumstances, the sentence is not going to exceed the statutory most, and typically, it will likely be lower than the utmost.
With respect to Kilos’ prior felony file, in his July twenty fourth “I’m not the proprietor” video, Kilos states he has a “felony previous”.
[3:44] I’ve been locked up (on the) state, federal and juvi degree.
With respect to the “elements distinctive to this case”, the DOJ pegs Kilos because the ringleader behind the fraud;
POUNDS recruited (his accomplices) and others to offer him with their private figuring out data, which he then used to use for EIDL loans of their names.
POUNDS allegedly claimed within the EIDL mortgage purposes that (his accomplices) every operated a non-profit group that was a “Religion-Based mostly Group” and a “Church”.
Sadly Kilos’ present MLM crypto Ponzi crime spree gained’t issue into his COVID-19 mortgage fraud sentencing.
What it would result in although is the next chance of Kilos’ Preserve It 100 Ponzi scheme being investigated.
Hiding behind accomplices didn’t protect Kilos when it got here to COVID-19 mortgage fraud. Equally, hiding behind a UK shell firm isn’t going to guard Kilos from potential wire fraud, securities fraud and cash laundering prices.
Kilos’ MLM crypto Ponzi profession seems to have started in August 2022 with NovaTech FX.
NovaTech FX was a US-based Ponzi scheme run by Cynthia and Eddy Petion.
The Petions went into hiding in late 2022, following which NovaTech FX collapsed in February 2023.
Along with NovaTech FX, Kilos claims he’s participated in “virtually 200 completely different” Ponzi schemes “within the final 12 months”.
As per federal US securities regulation, each providing and selling unregistered securities is illegitimate.
