Carlos Wanzeler, owner of the AdCentral investment scheme TelexFree, uploaded a YouTube video on February 17th, signaling a new compensation plan. The move suggests the company, widely described as a $20-a-week ROI Ponzi, is adjusting its operations. An official announcement is expected later this week.

The YouTube video, titled "TelexFREE Novidades sobre o novo plano de compensação," translates to "Telexfree News about the new compensation plan." Wanzeler spoke in Portuguese, but the video offered no specific details. Instead, he discussed "pseudo-compliance," stating the company did not want "the wrong information to get out there."

Ivan Kernev, a Russian TelexFree affiliate investor, posted unofficial specifics on VK, Russia's equivalent of Facebook. Kernev claimed his information came from individuals who attended a meeting in the U.S. that afternoon. He stated the upcoming changes would make the company "Legally stronger and more balanced."

The mention of "leaders meeting in the US" draws attention. Brazilian Public Prosecutors in Acre recently confirmed an ongoing TelexFree US investigation.

Kernev's post outlined several changes. He reassured investors that the fixed weekly gain would remain. However, this gain would only apply to those who "qualify in torque," meaning they make two sales of wholesale VoIP franchises.

The changes take effect March 8th. Any contracts signed by March 7th will complete under the current terms. Daily ad postings will no longer be required. Investors seeking the $400 monthly income from the Family Pack must purchase it by March 7th, as the pack will be discontinued thereafter. New plans are promised for those who "actually develops MMN." Kernev also noted the IT team is working on new applications for prompt release.

Retail sales have been largely absent within TelexFree. The vast majority of revenue flowing in and paid out weekly in returns originates from affiliates. The mandatory sale of two VOIP accounts does not surprise observers of the scheme's mechanics. Existing affiliates may redirect a portion of their guaranteed ROI to purchase the two additional VOIP accounts, often using details from family members or creating fake customer profiles.
