I’ve had a few requests to review USFIA over the past month or so, but have held off due to the difficulty in accessing accurate information about the company.
Following bits of pieces coming in from the various readers along with my own research, I now believe I’ve got enough to put together an accurate USFIA review.
For MLM opportunity evaluation purposes, USFIA’s website isn’t very helpful but does provide some basic background information:
USFIA INC. is founded and owned by the US China Consultation Association, specialized in gem mining and processing, headquartered in Los Angeles, California.
According to the website, USFIA stands for “US Fine Investment Arts”.
There’s no information about who’s running USFIA on their website, nor any further information about it purportedly being run out of California.
The USFIA website domain (“usfiainc.com”) was registered on the 19th of July 2013, with a “Steve Chen” of “Alliance Financial Group Inc.” listed as the owner. An address in the US state of California is also provided, which is presumably where USFIA is being operated from.
Chen appears in various marketing material pertaining both to USFIA and the US China Consultation Association.
The following image is taken from a USFIA marketing material and identifies Chen as the President of USFIA:
Alarmingly the above slide also identifies John Wuo (cited as “John Wu”), an elected government official of the City of Arcadia, California.
Wuo, identified above as the mayor of Arcadia, is an Arcadia City Council member.
John Wuo was first elected to the City Council in 2002 and has been re-elected for his third four-year term in 2012, after sitting out for the required two year “timeout” in 2010.
He has served as a Centennial Mayor for the City of Arcadia in 2003 and three full terms in 2005-2006, 2009-2010 and 2014-2015.
I believe the “centennial mayor” position is likely the cause of his misidentification in USFIA marketing material.
In any event, the slide
also
credits Wuo as the Honorable Chairman of the USFIA Currency Fund.
Further research reveals the USFIA Currency Fund credited with the issuing of GemCoins, a cryptocurrency attached to the USFIA business opportunity.
Whether or not there is any direct relationship between USFIA and the City of Arcadia is unclear.
As to what the US China Consultation Association (UCCA) is, according to one USFIA affiliate presentation the organization is
made (up) of Chinese and American counselors from top industry fields around the world.
The goal is to establish a high level platform to facilitate communication between China and America, politically as well as economically.
The same presentation credits Steve Chen (right) as Vice Chairman of UCCA.
For all intents and purposes, it appears Steve Chen is the owner of USFIA.
Trying to dig deeper than that is where the headaches begin.
Going through Chinese isn’t my forte, so instead for further reading I’ll direct you to a RealScam forum thr
