79th Group – the façade continues to crumble, ponzi fraud runs out of cash

As with all Ponzi schemes once the flow of new monies stops, the cracks in the scam start to appear. In 79th Group case this was initially triggered by the City of London Police announcement of fraud investigation against the 79th group and arrest of the four senior individuals at the group believed to be Gary Webster, his sons Jake and Curtis and the CEO Natalie Bellis. Further signs of the collapse of the 79th group are now starting to appear.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast No 2: as Evil Banksta exposes Powerhouse as a zero in waiting, I flag up smelly red flags at Roquefort and Trustpilot

I start with Trustpilot (TRST) and the ratings for Evri and Everi, do you smell a rat? Trustpilot is a stonking £1.2 billion short. Then Powerhouse (PHE) which you can also short to zero, Optibiotix (OPTI) and i am being objective and, I believe, balanced. Finally Roquefort (ROQ) and today’s red flag strewn news: is that a fake sheikh I spot?

Can you trust TrustPilot (TRST) as a reader looking to buy a good product? The answer as evidenced by the 79th Group scandal HERE and Alan Green’s poor dog HERE is a clear NO!

Trustpilot - another reader writes to expose why it cannot be trusted

This reader may not have an MBE like our earlier commentator but his comments merit a wider audience. And they, again, show why you cannot trust TrustPilot (TRST) reviews and that is a fundamental flaw in the business model. Enjoy...

Trustpilot just shows that it cannot be trusted: it finally posts a "warning" about mini bond fraudsters The 79th Group

A week after the City of London fuzz announced that looking at a “widespread fraud” it had launched Operation Mold, arrested and charged 4 employees of 79th Group and asked for other victims to come forward, Trustpilot (TRST) which has been a platform for rave reviews for the fraudsters has posted a warning. Well sort of.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast No 2: a Versarien owning Kraut wants to save my reputation

My brother in laws are both half Krauts so I must not be too rude. I start on this matter then look at the Colin Bird mining tiddlers and what is going on at Tiger Royalties (TIR), then why Novum thinks lying to investors is fine and dandy then what am I missing, why is TrustPilot (TRST) not a massive short. I also look at why you go short bitcoin long gold as a pair trade if you think the US economy is in trouble so stockmarkets will stumble..

Share Promoter Alan Green shows up Trustpilot for the waste of space it is once again; ref Perfect Pet, surely the shares are a stonking £1.2bn short

Every business has three key stakeholders: staff, shareholders and customers. You can screw one of them and reward the others but not forever. But maybe Trustpilot (TRST) is different?

BREAKING: The mini bond fraudsters at the 79th Group now arrested and the TrustPilot Reviews, can you believe a word on that website?

The 79th Group is the latest and seemingly most tawdry mini bond scandal. Once again naïve punters read the word “bond” and thought “safe”. Then they were promised returns of 12-15%. Lured in by greedy IFA’s being paid fat commissions the cash rolled in.

Just what is the point of Trustpilot - its reviews are just bent: meet Tom winnithrith

When I owned a restaurant, a long long time ago, supporters of the fraud Quindell (QPP) took to Trustpilot (TRST) to post bogus reviews and ensure we had the worst rating in London. Naturally, even when presented with proof, Trustpilot did nothing about it.It just loved all that traffic coming to its site. Today I bring you another review by a Tom winnithrith. It is of ADVFN (AFN) where Steve and I run two subscription newsletters.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Being a Trustpilot detective on failing shitcoin promote Aqru - and look who is behind it?

I start with a few words on Jubilee Metals (JLP) and Bluebird Merchant Ventures (BMV). Then some Trustpilot detective work on AQRU (AQRU) which, I predict, will go bust in 2023. I move on to Xtract Resources (XTR), Shearwater (SWG), Alliance Pharma (APH) and then to the impending demise of Applied Graphene Materials (AGM). Gotcha! I also cover Argo Blockchain (ARB) which I still have down as a 2022 bust, maybe as soon as this week

I feel robbed by Captain Obvious & Hotels.com and it seems I am not alone

Hotels.com must win the prize for the most annoying adverts on Television. Captain Obvious is a bearded fellow looking like a child molester who sings the praises of this website which is meant to get you cheap and easy hotel bookings. Last night it scammed me, it continues to scam me and judging by the way it attempts to censor legions of adverse reviews on Trustpilot I am far from alone. Be warned, here is my tale.
