We just opened the Latvian Racket Case. One of its members is Pavels Krasovskis, the UBO of the licensed Estonian crypto payment processor Isunext. Until December 2020, he was also associated with the UK-registered e-commerce merchant K.L.A. Enterprises Ltd, which operates a portfolio of identical websites selling e-book subscriptions and the scam site www.greatoffers.email. Our educated guess is that this company is also an illegal "undercover" payment processor.

We ask for the support of our whistleblowers to supplement the information we have and to be able to create complete profiles from it. In the last few days, we have discovered two scams, Zurich Invests (here) and XFinances (here), where MisterBit of Cristiano Chiarugi, licensed in Estonia as a crypto payment processor, acted as payment facilitators. Also, we have received information suggesting a connection between MisterBit and Estonian Isunext.

The XFinances broker scam was operated with domain www.xfinances.com until a few weeks ago and received some negative reviews. After that, it was switched to the currently active domain, www.exfinances.com. A tellinge name, isn't it? The scam is allegedly operated by FINEX GROUP LTD, which claims to be regulated by Swiss Financial Securities (SFINS) and Markets Financial Authority (MFA). Bullshit is this; these are no regulators! As payment processors, we have again the Estonian crypto payment processor MisterBit.

The Italian Consob has this week again ordered the blackout of the websites of five illegally operating financial service providers. Among the blacked out is the scam broker Zurich Invests allegedly operated by BENELUXZURICH, KB ATM MANAGEMENT, and ZH COMPANIES BNK Ltd, registered in the UK. As payment processors, we have discovered the Estonian MisterBit processing the credit and debit card payments on behalf of the Zurich Invests scam.
