This entity claims to offer Saskatchewan residents an opportunity to invest in crypto assets.

rebranded to Swiss Valorem Bank
last month.

The SEC advises that
securities fraud and cryptocurrency is a strong indicator of a Ponzi scheme
.

We are concerned that the rising use of virtual currencies in the global marketplace may entice fraudsters to lure

investors into Ponzi and other schemes in which these currencies are used to facilitate fraudulent, or simply

fabricated, investments or transactions.

The fraud may also involve an unregistered offering or trading platform. these schemes often promise high returns for getting in on the ground floor of a growing Internet phenomenon.

Federal and state securities laws require certain investment professionals and their firms to be licensed or registered.

Many Ponzi schemes involve unlicensed individuals or unregistered firms.

GSPartners and Swiss Valorem Bank are run by former 
Karatbars International
 executive Josip Heit.

Heit, originally from Croatia but believed to hold a German passport, runs GSPartners and Swiss Valorem Bank from
Dubai
