Last November the long-running forex scam IM Mastery Academy
rebooted as Iyovia
.
No official reason was given for the rebranding, prompting me to speculate;

On May 1st the FTC and Nevada
filed a joint suit against IM Mastery Academy
, alleging over $1.2 billion in fraud.
The FTC’s filed lawsuit names IM Mastery Academy (dba Iyovia), its executives and several promoters as defendants;

As alleged by the FTC;
Since at least 2018, Defendants have operated a large deceptive investment training scheme targeting young adults, including Black and Latino consumers.
Defendants represent that IML instructors will teach consumers how to make significant income trading in the foreign exchange, binary options, cryptocurrency, and stock markets (IML’s “Trading Training Services”).
Defendants, however, lack support for their lavish, and often made up or false, earnings representations. In truth, a substantial percentage of purchasers of the Trading Training Services lose money trading, on top of the hefty sum they pay IML.
Furthermore, many of IML’s instructors are not successful traders. And Defendants’ own data show that the vast majority of IML salespeople lose money or make negligible income.
The FTC alleges IM Mastery Academy/Iyovia and its previous incarnations have defrauded consumers out of over $1.242 billion since 2018.
Defendants profit handsomely from the deceptive earnings claims of their salespeople, which have generated more than $1.242 billion in worldwide sales since 2018.
