About a year ago Daily Exposed published a list of the top MLM industry figures in the Traders Domain Ponzi scheme.

The data was based of records obtained by Coffeezilla…

…and featured well-known MLM industry figures such as Holton Buggs and wife Earlene Buggs, Mike Sims, Stormy Wellington, Eric Worre and wife Marina Worre and Jack Fallon.

At the time I requested access to the full list from Coffeezilla, which I finally received access to yesterday.

The complete Traders Domain Ponzi investor list contains 9664 entries, many of which are duplicate accounts. The total amount recorded is $3,370,617,110.85.

The data is presented as accurate as of September 20th, 2022.

Traders Domain collapsed towards the end of 2022, dragging down several attached Ponzi schemes with it (
OmegaPro
is of particular interest to Daily Exposed).

To the best of my knowledge, if you follow who recruited who into SAEG, Traders Domain, OmegaPro and any other names used, all roads lead to Holton Buggs, Mike Sims and Eric Worre.

Although his name pops up frequently, given the disparity between the amounts Travis Bott and Holton Buggs stole, I believe Bott sits under Buggs in the investor hierarchy.

I also haven’t seen anyone in the above list publicly address their involvement. Eric Worre has
publicly denied association with OmegaPro
, which is an obvious lie.

In addition to the ongoing CFTC case, which only addresses a fraction of the ~$3.3 billion, OmegaPro co-founder Andreas Szakacs, in blue next to Eric Worre above), was
arrested
in Turkey last month.

Update 4th September 2024 – 
A reader wrote in to let me know Peter Hirsch committed suicide last year. Was able to independently verify so I’ve made a note of that on his entry.
