Was North Korea Behind The Profitable Sunrise Ponzi Scheme That Targeted Christians?
A note from the author: Since originally publishing this book in October of 2013, the wide variety of nefarious activities that North Korea has been involved with have become more than apparent. It appears that the regime, desperate to fulfill its military ambitions, will operate as a state sponsor of hacking, ransomware, and worse. In hindsight, I wish I had brought more attention to this element of my investigation when the book was first released. As a result, I am publishing the below excerpt and making the entire Kindle book available for free on Amazon for a limited time.
Excerpted From Exposing The Ponzi Masters (currently available for free on Amazon Kindle)
Another red flag (as if there were not already enough of them) was uncovered when I did some basic research on the corporate entity behind Profitable Sunrise, Inter Reef, Ltd. Oddly enough, Roman Novak, the supposed founder of the company, was not listed as an officer or director on any of the corporate documents I was able to locate at the website of Companies House (the English governmental agency that manages corporate registrations). A new name, however, appeared in the corporate documents: Agnes Jouaneau. Who in the world was Agnes Jouaneau, and how did she fit into all of this? I Googled the name and uncovered what was even more shocking information. It appears that Agnes Jouaneau (if that is even a real person���s name) has been involved with forming so-called shell corporations for alleged nefarious activities for years. The address for Jouaneau was located in the Seychelles, a small island off the coast of Africa.
I tripped across this article from the New Zealand Herald from January of 2010. The story raises questions about Jouaneau���s shell corporations and ties to money laundering for arms for North Korea and other terrorist activities. What in the world had I gotten myself into here? As if things could not get any stranger, in Auckland, New Zealand, the guy behind these shell corporations, Geoffrey Taylor (he apparently worked/works with Jouaneau), was evicted out of the virtual office space he was leasing from The Salvation Army.
You may be starting to see the murky picture here: A corporation formed in Seychelles with virtual offices in New Zealand, England, and other locations worldwide, as well as anonymous bank accounts that cannot be tracked back to the beneficial owner of the corporation - these folks have created such a tangled web that it becomes nearly impossible to follow the money trail. One can only imagine the criminal activities possible with such an arrangement.
