Exfusion operates from a subdomain “exfusion.ibportal.io”. The root domain, “ibportal.io”, was privately registered on October 19th, 2025.

The “ibportal.io” root domain is disabled. A search for the domain reveals multiple Tag Markets associated schemes operating from it.

Beyond its “ibportal.io” subdomain, Exfusion is run through a shady Telegram group named @exfusioninternationalofficial.

Names we can attach through Exfusion marketing material are serial fraudsters.

First we have Asker Sakinmaz:

Sakinmaz, from Turkey, first popped up on BehindMLM’s radar as CEO of the 
FlexKom
 pyramid scheme in 2013.

FlexKom was 
rebooted as Weeconomy
 in 2019. Weeconomy marked a transition to MLM related crypto fraud.

In his capacity as a FlexKom executive, Sakinmaz was 
convicted on fraud charges in Belgium
 in 2020. Sakinmaz, convicted in absentia,  was sentenced to forty months in prison and an €18,000 EUR fine.

After Weeconomy collapsed, in 2021 Sakinmaz resurfaced as part of Safir International’s “circle of trust”.

Safir International
 was an MLM crypto Ponzi built around Zeniq Coin. The scam collapsed in 2023.

After Safir International Sakinmaz resurfaced as Director of Sales for the
AiConnects
MLM crypto Ponzi.

AiConnects’ website is still up but its social media was abandoned in October 2025.

Another name we can attach to Exfusion is Michael Baur:

As above, Baur is running official Exfusion and NeoFX marketing webinars.

In 2019 a BehindMLM reader 
tied Baur to the CMMT Revolution Ponzi scheme
. In August 2022, another BehindMLM reader 
tied Baur to the collapsed PLC Ultima series of Ponzi schemes
.

Baur resurfaced in 2024 to front the
Skainet Systems
Ponzi scheme.

Skainet Systems
collapsed
in June 2025. A short-lived Cermak reboot
collapsed
in July 2025.

Baur resurfaced in September 2025 as CMO of the
Nexxano
pyramid scheme. Nexxano’s website is still up but Baur is assumed to have ditched the scam and moved on with Exfusion.

On a December 9th Exfusion marketing presentation, Baur confirmed he resides in Dubai.

Exfusion marketing material cites partnership with Tag Markets:

This is because Exfusion is run on Tag Markets, an MLM investment fraud factory owned by Jared Esguerra:

On social media, Esguerra represents he works in “financial services” and is based out of Dubai;

In addition to Esguerra Tag Markets was co-founded by CEO Kevin Marin Valez, a “digital creator” and “business administrator” based out of Colombia.

As per the “Kevin Marin” marketing slide above, Tag Markets is represented to be operating from Columbia [sic] and Dubai.

Due to the proliferation of scams and failure to enforce securities fraud regulation, BehindMLM ranks Dubai as the 
MLM crime capital of the world
.

BehindMLM’s guidelines for Dubai are:

If someone lives in Dubai and approaches you about an MLM opportunity, they’re trying to scam you.

If an MLM company is based out of or represents it has ties to Dubai, it’s a scam.
