Oh dear, oh dear

Mr. Anthony Norman, Chairman of the Board of Directors
Born 1974

Earlier career in the Swedish Army Forces specialized in army intelligence for foreign operations. Antony Norman was one of the early players within the .com arena and developed during that time a deep understanding of venture capital business and its challenges. Anthony Norman has worked as a consultant for a number of VC firms in Europe and in the US. After selling his main business to a Swedish Public Company he stayed on the management team for three years. Anthony has in the past 15 years formed and managed over forty private companies and has been on the board of a number public companies as well as the advisor for over 15 public companies on various markets in the UK, Sweden, Poland, Germany and the United States.

Quick search leads to :
http://behindmlm.com/companies/viral-angels-review-39-990-eur-credit-union-scheme/
Which contains

OPN ultimately were only able to register themselves under a different company name on the Cyprus Stock Exchange (they were terminated and banned from listing on theBritish GXG stock exchange).

Trig is certainly not a new company, so one would think if it was going to public it would have already by now. Yet all we see are vague promises about it happening sometime in the future.

In the meantime the money being pumped into Viral Angels by affiliate investors is most definitely real, and most likely to fail regulatory scrutiny if the company ever does approach a reputable stock exchange for listing.

The more pressing issue for Viral Angels however is what happens when the recruitment slows down and those at the bottom stop paying their monthly affiliate fees?

Will we then see yet another incarnation of SpinGlo/Synkronice/Enwire/Trig/Viral Angels?

Although I’m sure Anthony Norman has a barrage of excuses to explain away his involvement in the past failures of SpinGlo et al., his track record speaks for itself.

This whole “we’re going to go public one day” ship was first floated around 2012, and to date the ship hasn’t left port. In the wake of Norman’s failures, all we’ve seen is missing investor funds and a series of collapses.

Stay tuned for nothing different this time around I guess.

The money coming in through DWW was now controlled by Tony, and besides that he made two smaller transfers to our banking system in September and October that was used to pay bonuses out, NOTHING came in to pay anyone. Over 130.000€ vanished! Where did it go? Tony Norman was always saying it was used for developments!? He has yet to answer that question.

Seriously we should put up a TV show about a bunch of guys trying to throw dirty money at esports and building bigger and bigger stuff each time. We got the plot already written.

We can even offer the main role at TDL for his irl experience about this stuff.

Weird team, but might turn out good. There has been teams I've been doubting that turned out to be good, like Cloud 9.

Seriously **** Min-Sik Ko for introducing MC to those people, this makes me really mad. It's just sad that e-sports became a place for all kinds of shady people to run their scams, launder money or whatever.

Edit: Made my post a bit less accusing.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

To meet the demand from this market, Trig will start a professional esports team, produce and stream a new reality TV-series and build the worlds first dedicated esports arena in a suitable location. Trig has great ambitions and aim at taking an overall grip on the whole fragmented esport business.

Yeah, was just kidding, this is of course not like KeSPA, even if they wish they would be. KeSPA is legit.

Looks like MC was so desperate for a team and Reis got him involved in a group which looks suspicious without doing much research. Going to wait for more evidence but so far from what OtherWorld shows the organization doesn't exactly look like a reputable one.

Cloud9 was pretty expected to go far in League community, having 2 guys who were instrumental to build TSM from nothing is never bad.
This, on the other hand is eeeeeeeh.

Hope for best though ofc.

This LoL team contains probably 2 most popular players in EU, big upcoming star and 2 other legit famous players, FIFA player is probably best in the world as well and idk about Smite squad but they advertised them okay.

Well, C9 started as a LoL team that expanded. Yours would be similar to being suspicious that TL got into Smash
Not really the same situation here

I don't think that MC gives too much shit about these people - if they give him money and support, good for him, if they bust out as usual, no big deal. He's just not that kind of a player who will get all shaken up if the team turns out to be a fraud, he's gonna kick asses anyway.
