OffshoreCorpTalk scam exposed: from CClogic front to fake forum accounts
- Thread starter JohnnyDoe
- Start date
regarding this...
I wrote in the post above (#38) that there was a "Peter Bang" guy promoting in ~2009 the old CClogic forum in various websites, presenting himself as owner/admin/manager and i've posted the links...
they said it was sold in 2016 iirc... so that peter bang shouldn't be there anymore, right?
guess who wrote all these medium articles in 2020/21 promoting offshorecorptalk forum again?
OffshoreCorpTalk – Medium
Read writing from OffshoreCorpTalk on Medium. Webmaster at OffshoreCorpTalk.com. Covering offshore banking, global company setup, EMI accounts, asset protection, and compliance trends.
hint 🤣 :
so we have a Peter Bang from CCLogic days:
and a Peter Bang from OCT:
but yeah.. it changed ownership for sure! 🤣

it keeps giving... I thought the avatar image was fake...
truth is that the peter bang image he has on medium, OCT linkedin accounts/socials etc is stolen from an existing guy from Romania, local politician and entrepreneur
yep it's a real guy
even has a fb page Consilier Rosca Marian Dragasani
What if this romanian guy get to know someone is using his face to promote his shady business?
add it to the list of his offenses 🤣

@marioIT you are doing forensics and corp investigation and don't wanna be banned mate 😂 breath well.
I just posted what's available online... publicly accessible.
I'm not spamming his forum or directly destroying it... I am just commenting some clear evidence.
Anyway I'll stop here and won't go deeper than this, as:
I satisfied my curiosity and put myself in a safer position by knowing what that forum really is and how it operates.
When you do that kind of businesses for that long and to so many people, sooner or later your sins will find you out.
If he bans me, then fine... it's his forum not mine... I will survive without it! as I said I have zero need these days for basic offshore tricks, I am already in a safer position.
I just hope he will contact me to talk about it before the ban. Ultimately I don't care about the forum and don't even need his paid services.
I care about the few good (non MG) guys that are still there and randomly post good interesting info.
But since I've read here that @JohnLocke even read private messages etc... my trust for that forum is less than my local b1tch, there is no way I am going ever to post anything worthy there 🙂

Anyway I'll stop here and won't go deeper than this, as:
- I've seen and commented enough so that newbies will understand what it really is (@JohnnyDoe already did a good job exposing it, I just connected the dots)
- I don't have a direct war against the guy
- I'm just happy he didn't put the 🍆 in me... and that's a big relief on its own... if he did, then things would be different...
- I wasn't banned, unlike Johnny
- ultimately I have better things to do 🙂

I just kidding with you mate, but we are living in a world where :
• telling the truth is forbidden.
• if you are not with us, you are against us.
• telling the truth is forbidden.
• if you are not with us, you are against us.
It's always a good pastime to expose scammers.
Frankly, I wouldn’t even waste a thought on OffshoreCorpTalk if @JohnLocke had just refunded my "lifetime" membership and closed it there. I gave him the chance. Instead he chose to scam me, he violated my privacy and started a smear campaign.
Maybe one day he will understand he made a mistake.
At the same time he gave me the inspiration for this forum. I always wanted something like the old usenet boards, with no moderation and low noise.

I think I've found our guy's name associated to multiple uk companies (afaik never mentioned here) that supposedly ran financial scams online in pre-2010 times 🤣
It's a list made by a non-profit organization that helped victims of online fraud/scams in those years, and his name is there correlated to a few financial companies...
it's the same period of the companies I already posted in post #13 , but these are other uk ltds.
at the time there was no PSC register, so they are not in his name, but nominees. Not sure if he just worked there or ran the whole thing, but had email addresses like manager@company.com
of course it's just someone with the same danish name not him.... 🤣
btw he's on the same list with "nigerian prince" scammers, maybe he was just starting there 🤣
also he's so smart to list himself as CEO & Founder of dissolved "anonymous" financial ltd companies on linkedin...
and found the old danish address in a business page kind of website, he ran many companies through the years...
(he dissolved and started fresh every few years),
the reviews for those addresses/companies were all like "SCAM ARTIST!!!" 🤣

also someone already investigated CCLogic 15 years ago (in 2010), it adds some more detailed info:
the post above from 2010 says there was another company related to cclogic:
if you look the signature in the web-archived page, it says Webdesign & Development by a danish company...
go look the danish company registry for that name and guess who owned it?
the same danish guy that owns it all 🤣
now... there could be more to it, as the address used in cyprus will point you to paradise papers...
and if you dig down the nominee company/secretary setup there (now dissolved) may find other interesting things,
but that's for another day!
let's go to web archive then:

Kudos to @marioIT, he is writing a serious piece of investigative journalism here.
The web never forgets.
The web never forgets.
Considering his questionable morals and the creation and closure of numerous companies I'm not surprised he came under scrutiny from the (Danish) tax authorities which he mentioned earlier this year lol. I wonder what that case actually was about lol. Very, very impressive work by the way @marioIT.
(sorry about formatting but it's a PITA to correctly use embed tags on every single post of this guy, it's quicker to quote and past the link)
then also @JohnLocke said he has troubles with danish tax agency:
and then here:
says "Currently, a︁ close acquaintance of mine is embroiled in a challenging situation with this authority (The Danish Tax Authority, SKAT), facing daunting︂ prospects" 😀
then if you filter for "SKAT" (the danish tax agency) you'll find plenty of threads by the fake accounts about denmark e.g. @SysOp , @EliasIT , @JohnLocke
then there's this guy here @fighthorse
that has a VERY SIMILAR STORY to @JohnLocke and @EliasIT , almost word for word:
and if you check his posts
you'll find him most active in denmark threads and mentor group discounts, with some random multiple copy-paste posts
and after a while this guy too is interested about switzerland around the same time of @EliasIT
but the best post has yet to come...
The guy has just joined the forum (3 days old account) and already promoting mentor group and already has lifetime...
(must check the original OCT forum theads, remember that here the MG badges don't show up)
just pasting a screen from OCT to see he's MG lifetime:
and the post goes like this:
if they are scammers (talking about other companies of course not OCT or CClogic): just leave them alone, the answer is joining mentor group, of course! 🤣
all these guys have the same problems, same countries, same arguments, same mentor group fetish as soon as they join, they all started from denmark and they all end up in Switzerland...
@JohnnyDoe , another fake user this @fighthorse ? 🤣
also his post count here is 84, on OCT is down to 62. @JohnLocke has already started scrubbing compromising posts there?
so much for truth, honesty, fact checking or how he called... micro propaganda!
yeah if you study @EliasIT and @JohnLocke posts you'll find the whole story, just put together some of his posts here with links to the original pages:
he (@EliasIT ) said he won the danish tax case... then moved to Germany and Switzerland... and the danish tax agency is still trying to collect €80k though Germany, but now he moved to Switzerland and when he deregistered from Germany he lied stating he moved to Portugal... sure, he won the case, sure! trust him 🤣EliasIT said:

The case for HMRC is served:
Thread 'Turner Little - Company formation'
Turner Little - Company formation
But those lazy guys are unlikely to move their fat asses, especially for such little money, unless there is a political reason.
I can't even open that forum anymore...
I got OCTDS: OffshoreCorpTalk Derangement Syndrome
I get triggered as soon as I open a thread there...
it starts with the AI avatars and his fake MG aliases bumping old posts like "hey, so you did it? how is going now?"
Once seen you can't unsee it, can't even open a thread and scroll slightly as there's another fake user right below liking stupid posts saying stupid stuff
I mean he's liking and talking to himself :
he throws a stupid post there in the open, puts a like on it with the other fake alias, then obliviously ask a stupid question to a stupid post instead of arguing it...
he's bumping all the dead threads this way lately...

Once you've seen it, you can't ignore it, and that's the sad part about this all. Especially sad because basically this forum had so much potential. If you think about it, it's such a great concept. Of course, thankfully there is now this forum that still needs to get going, but previously there was no other large-scale place where you could discuss such matters. And yes, I'm a bit nostalgic, because things had been going reasonably well for a few years. Perhaps even with the common good being considered. Until the scrounging for even more money began. It's certainly difficult to suppress criminal tendencies that have been manifesting for decades.
The only reason I still visit the site (besides the bizarre plot twists) is because there's still some interesting information to be found about certain EMIs or countries. But in a few years that too will be irrelevant, and I predict both revenue and traffic for OcT drying up as well.
Real-life experiences from users on the ground ended up being suppressed because they did not yield any profit for John Locke. And now that only a hollow frame of the website remains even the quality of the advertisers has also become deplorable. Like OVZA hijacking threads with AI-generated texts, recommending a Belize setup (completely unusable, of course).
What's also absolutely cringeworthy is when you look back at some really useful threads and see John Locke interrupting the conversation with his AI-generated profiles and asking completely random and irrelevant questions inbetween. And coincidentally, he also refers to the "Mentor Gold Group." all the time. In hindsight I don't know how I didn't see this right away. Sorry, but I really have to get it off my chest and say what a sad man this is.

Everything has become so useless and pathetic on Offshorecorptalk that continuing to scrape it makes no sense. Also because JohnLocke keeps deleting and editing posts, so who knows what the original content was.
