In what appears to be
another
attempt to distance itself from global regulatory fraud warnings, IM Mastery Academy has rebranded as Iyovia.
The switch from IM Mastery Academy only recently happened but Iyovia branded social media accounts were created earlier this year.
Iyovia’s website domain (“iyovia.com”) was registered on August 26th, 2024
a second Iyovia website at “ivoyia.ai” was privately registered on an unknown date
Iyovia’s YouTube channel was created in August 2024
Iyovia’s official FaceBook page was created in September 2024
Iyovia’s business model appears to be the same as IM Mastery Academy’s; purported education packages tied to pyramid recruitment.
There’s no indication Iyovia is using a different MLM compensation plan to IM Mastery Academy.
Absent on Iyovia’s new website is ownership/executive details and disclosure of regulatory fraud warnings.
IM Mastery Academy is run by US national Christopher “Chris” Terry.
The company began as iMarketsLive, but rebranded to IM Mastery Academy following a CFTC commodities fraud enforcement action in 2018.
BehindMLM has maintained Chris Terry is running a pyramid scheme since our original 2013
iMarkets Live review
. We expressed securities fraud concerns in our
second 2017 iMarketsLive review
.
The 2018
CFTC enforcement action
confirmed additional commodities fraud.
BehindMLM noted the
2019 IM Mastery Academy rebranding
was “a compliance step backward from our last 2017 review”.
What IM Mastery Academy is offering today is more aligned with their initial offering, which we stated in our initial review was “so out of compliance it was comical.”
