Previously we have revealed that the domain "Pacificroyale.com" was registered none other than Tarun Trikha and his V2 Global scam company.
Later they used generic clipart to claim the company is launching in January 2012.
It is now January 2012, so where's the airline?
According to airline news, Pacific Royale is not going to start operating until END OF FEBRUARY 2012. And even then, it will only have 4 aircraft, two of them castoff from Ethiopian Airline.
Yet the website remains unchanged (as of today). It is clearly bogus.
And just to prove that the website's bogus... this is what it looks like now. This plane is NOT EVEN THE MODEL OF AIRCRAFT THAT WILL BE OPERATED BY PACIFIC ROYALE.
Yet the newspaper article above says very clearly that the airline will be flying Boeing 737s and Fokker 50s. Neither of which looks like that. Here's what a Fokker 50 looks like:
And in case you've forgotten, here's what a 737 looks like:
Yet more proof that Tarun Trikha posts bull**** to enthrall scam victims with false promises and innuendos.
TVI Express scam exposed, lies busted, truth revealed. What TVI Express and members do NOT want you to know. No marketing, no recruiting, just information, analysis, and commentary.

Tarun Trikha on Facebook, ignores complaints on wall
Someone posted updates about the TVI Express broken promises on Tarun Trikha's Facebook wall. It was ignored. Tarun Trikha wants to launch his own booking portal (bookmytrip.com, in cooperation with someone who was involved with the YTBI scam), his own airline (which is not his own at all), and the hotel reservations have HUGE hidden surcharges.

TVI Express member falsely claimed endorsement in Indonesia
Official denies that he had joined or endorsed TVI Express, despite members having dropped his name and claimed he's a member. In other words, TVI Express members lied!

TVI Express "press release" printed as news in Indonesia
Apparently TVI Express "distributors" (of nothing) in Indonesia is willing to pay reporters to print their "press release" as "news" about how prosperous they will be. In 2010 we saw several examples of such "articles" printed by various small local papers who basically got a ONE-sided story. Here is one example, fresh off the press (again, Google Translate-d). My comments will be in blue.

More American Victims of TVI Express Found
What happened to Edwin Natividad, Mayet Briones, and family with TVI EXPRESS?
They say they joined TVI Express January 2009. Toward the end of 2010 they abandonded TVI. I invested thousand of dollars made payable to DDI, Dream Destination International, which is Edwin's corporation name in San Jose, CA, USA. He promised to sign me up but him and his family never did. All I know is that he moved to the Philippines, took the money from a group of seniors and many others that are trying to make an extra buck. He probably collected over half a million dollars cash from us, left us with nothing, fled to the Philippines in promises he will expand the business there. later to find out he abdondons TVI EXPRESS and tries to start his own business which is a copy cat of TVI Express. He calls is PDI, Pacific Destination International. He's scammed so many before with his other business. I believe everything is behind his master mind nobody mistress Mayet (Maria) Briones. How do we fight for justice?

I posted an answer, but it is unlikely to help find the scammers. If you know where are the scammers in Phillipines, I can relay the answers.

TVIExpressDollar.com author Rudy Phan calls TVIExpress.com a liar AGAIN
Now he had came up with yet another bull**** lie defaming tviexpress.com: He claims TVI Expres lied about "no limit income", that income is actually limited. He then cited some bull**** reasons and bull**** math to prove his own case.
Again, I don't read Indonesian, so I am following this through Google Translate.
As for how many IDs that allowed it is not restricted. Because there is no restriction, then potentially, the income can be obtained by a member is also "no limits". But actually, or in fact, the income earned by a member is limited as well.So what is the limit?
My point is this: someone who has dozens or even hundreds of ID that is a member TVI Express Business running count by the conventional trade, which means he put the final advantage in a single round of $ 10,000 that he can how. Originally profit "5 to 16 vouchers" (or 13 million to 33.8 million) alone, he will take. So, he did not expect to get $ 10,000 intact.
So his explanation is that because the guy must take some vouchers, he does NOT actually get $10000? Did he just admit that the vouchers are worthless?
But let's skip ahead... he then claims that in order to really succeed in TVI Express, you must have multiple ID's because one ID will only cycle out once or twice, but if you have multiple ID's, EACH will cycle out multiple times, thus you will earn more.
If we hear that a member TVI Express could get "$ 10,000 over and over again, continuously, without stopping", that's true. But, we need to realize that to achieve that "without stopping" were required of a true networker or multi ID a lot. Do not dream to get a "non-stop" only from 1 ID only.Did he have any PROOF of this theory? Nope. In fact, this explanation is completely against logic and against the way the TVI Express system is documented to work!
To cycle out of express board, you need 14 other people to cycle you out. Each ID is considered separately.
So to cycle out 2 separate IDs, you need 28 people. To cycle 3 ID's you need 42. And so on and so forth.
So the MORE IDs you have, the MORE difficult it is to cycle out! If you fit ALL your recruits under a single ID you'll cycle faster than if you split them under multiple IDs!
In fact, the only reason to buy multiple ID's is to cycle your UPLINE out faster! That way he doesn't need to recruit so many people!
Think about it... If the business is this easy, why don't you just cycle yourself out? Let's work out the math:
But if you buy 15 memberships, yourself, then 14 downlines, you'd have spent 15*$250, or $3750.
But you only get back $250 in eWallet plus $250 in eVoucher code you can use for ANOTHER membership. So you have LOST $3250.
But your upline will love you. Because you had cycled him out to express board (he's just above you).
Can you cycle yourself out of the express board too? Nope. You've cycled only 1 ID out to express board. TO cycle out the other 14, you need to spend another 14*3250, or 45500, to get $10000 back.
And again, your upline will love you, because you had cycled HIM out for his $10000 too. And he only had to buy his own $250 membership.
So you lost $35500. The only way to MAKE money in TVI Express is you convince some OTHER people to join, so you can keep $10000 without spending more than $250.
So in other words, the math proves that TVI Express is a pyramid scheme: you are getting rich off SOMEONE ELSE'S MONEY.

Ros Kaspi was more of a plagiarist and thief than I thought
Remember I called Ros Kaspi and her partner a bunch of dimwits who can't even lie properly? A reader named Stefan pointed me to another blog that called out Kaspi as having stolen more images from an office designer!
Instead of stealing his thunder I'll just let you read his entry (which refers back to some of mine)

Rehash: Why TVI Express is NOT a business but a scam
Image via WikipediaEvery business is about adding VALUE to something. The short version is the old adage "buy low sell high". A restaurant take raw ingredients, cook them, and create dishes which it then sells to customers. Buy low (prep) sell high. It adds value to making the food cooked and edible.
A supermarket selects produce and other products from various vendors, ships them to the market and presents them to customers by giving them convenience by offering everything they need in one place with vast selection and good prices. It buys low and sells (somewhat) higher. It adds value to the merchandise it sells by providing convenience of selection and location.
You get the idea.
Business need labor. They need workers to perform functions. Restaurants need cooks, waiters, dishwashers, busboys, and more. Supermarket needs cashiers, stockers, managers, and so on. But it doesn't change their fundamentals: buy low, sell high.
Even MLMs like Amway Nu Skin, and so on do "buy low sell high". You buy stuff cheap from Amway, and sell them at a profit to other people (who are NOT Amway members). Added value is in having a local rep that essentially sends stuff to your house and visits you to talk about new products and usage tips and whatnot.
TVI Express sells a bunch of empty promises to members for $250, and when there's enough $250 gathered, they pay out a small portion ($10000) to one guy and claim this is a business. What it really is: a pyramid scheme.

TVI Express Lies Around the World: Maori / New Zealand
Image via WikipediaA long while back (May 2010) I found some reference on a Maori website about TVI Express. I posted a rebuttal. It's worth revisiting, as they go after a lot of minorities by exploiting their tight-knit community "social network".Who's the Maori? Maori is a Polynesian island tribe that lives on New Zealand. Minorities usually have tight-knit social circles, and many MLMs (and scams that disguised themselves as MLMs) exploit the social network for their gains.
In this case, the poster claims to want to bring prosperity to all simply by "showing" opportunities, and "share business with". As you can guess, he neglects to mention that he's recruiting people, not to sell ANYTHING.
It generates an income by talking,showing & net-working with People,Whanau,Friends & anyone else you want to share this business with,here in Aotearoa & Over-seas.
The natural reaction with most People is to be cautious,careful, negativity & skepticism,a natural humane response,i can deal with that kai te pai,but at this stage i just want you all to have a look for your-selves and see how it works.
The benefits & Financial gain it will create for you,far out weighs the one time payment to start you off,is in my opinion over shadows the doubts & Awangawana you might have in seeing how its structured & the belief in the system that it really does work, Whanau helping Whanau & so on,for me i want to get out of this rut im in,i want to be able to not worry about paying my bills,i believe this venture in TVIexpress will help me & my Family achieve all of this,koi na ra mo naia nei,naku noa.This can be basically summed up as "it's okay to fear, just look, you want the money, I know you do. Ignore the fear. Join and make me money."

Interesting: Solid Trust Pay is a Script-Kiddie Site? (UPDATED: not quite, no longer associated with TVI Express)
I compared the "user agreement" and they are virtually identical. Here are the comparisons
From the "demo" site on plxwebdev
And from the SolidTrustPay.com website...
Buyer Beware - ePAY Online assumes absolutely no responsibility for any purchases made through the ePAY Online system. At any time you join any Income Opportunity or MLM program, or Matrix Website or purchase a product or service you are doing so at your own risk and that by signing up and joining ePAY Online you do hearby agree in FULL that you release ePAY Online and all its affiliates and officers, employees, members and owners from ANY loss you may incur either by using this service...

(It should be "hereby")
Conclusion: SolidTrust Pay is not any more trustworthy than your average PHP website. It has no reputation, nor even a real support team behind it. In fact, does it even have a banking license to hold people's money? Guess that's why STP is based in CANADA instead of the US. However, is that even legal? A "real" payment processor such as VersaPay is partnered with Chase Bank and is certified with Visa/Mastercard. STP displays Visa/Mastercard logo, but it's not linked, and apparently has no actual relationship with any real bank or VISA and Mastercard.
Before you ask, Yes, Paypal *does* have a Banking License in Europe, and is licensed for banking in 28 of the 50 states in the US, and the other states either don't need one or is satisfied with out-of-state banking license.
Even TVI Express' payment processor is shady...
UPDATE 15-JAN-2011 -- unconfirmed comment stated that "Solid Trust Pay" has disassociated with TVI Express since April 2009, and the script was indeed "founded" on plxWebDev scripts. You can see the actual comments below.
UPDATE 01-FEB-2011 -- authenticity of comment was confirmed by STP Support. See 01-FEB-2011 blog entry.

Rehash: Why is TVI Express a Pyramid Scheme / Money Game?
First, what is a pyramid scheme? Instead of wiki definition, let's use an actual legal criteria, a court case against a pyramid scheme:
The Federal Trade Commission has established a test for determining what constitutes a pyramid scheme. Such contrivances are characterized by the payment by participants of money to the company in return for which they receive (1) the right to sell a product and (2) the right to receive in return for recruiting other participants into the program rewards which are unrelated toThis definition will be worded different in different countries, but even in Indonesia the meaning is virtually identical:
sale of the product to ultimate users

ACCC update: Contempt case against Teddi Jutsen was delayed till next week
Here is the e-mail response I got from ACCC regarding TVI Express:
Dear Mr ChangThank you for your email of 16 September 2010 to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) in relation to TVI Express.The ACCC is running two separate cases in relation to TVI Express.The first case, which alleges that TVI Express is a pyramid selling scheme which the respondents participated in, was finalised recently.The ACCC is now waiting for the Court to hand down its decision.Until that decision is made by the Court, the three respondents remain restrained from promoting TVI Express. More generally, please note that it is illegal to participate in a pyramid selling scheme. Ultimately only a court can declare that a scheme is illegal.The second case is a case against Ms Jutsen involving contempt of court charges. The contempt matter is before the Court next week for the hearing.I trust this information assists.SincerelyTaniaACCC Infocentre
So if you want to see TVI Express member get slapped hard by the law, just wait a little longer.

TVI Express told to cease and desist in state of Georgia, USA
BehindMLM reports that Donna Abreu, one of the North American leaders (whose "TVI Express Review Blog" I have reviewed before to be absolutely bull****) reported that one of her upline have been served a cease and desist letter from State Attorney of Georgia.
TVI Express has hired no lawyer to help defend its American members, unlike their promise to fight to the end in Australia. (BTW, their promise to fight includes violating TWO court injunctions, emptying their bank account frozen by court order)
The member was also told that TVI Express also violated American FTC laws regarding pyramid schemes and MLM. I had indicated this is so since beginning of this year.
And here's one more warning: ANY AMERICAN TVI EXPRESS MEMBERS CAN BE PROSECUTED FOR RUNNING A PYRAMID SCHEME if they choose to continue recruiting. While TVI Express is a foreign entity, and thus beyond the reach of FTC, any members within the US found to violate the law CAN be prosecuted. I did not say this... "TVI Express North America Leader" did.
You can read BehindMLM's report here, and the letter published from TVI Express supporter here.

TVI Express Indonesia uses the Borg argument
Q:TVI Express I was interested in this, that's what I was looking for as much info about this Express TVI. Well, here are some websites that I found, that tells about the "lies" TVI Express this business:
http://90recruits.blogspot.com/2009/09/tvi-express-scam.html
http://www.mreload.com/TVI/
http://kschang.blogspot.com/
Please could give an explanation.
Thank you.
A: Yes I also have studied the web-site. TVI Express is purely business and there is no element of deception at all. In case of movement of TVI Express would lie in Indonesia even the WORLD will stop, but the reality is not, TVI Express is getting larger and more powerful?.
You spend time and energy with worry, anxiety that really hurt. While the Member TVI Express with extraordinary spirit who is building their business empire. Immediately stop analyzing, stop worrying, stop suspicious. Immediately take part in this business "while" very good momentum.
So this guy basically says
"Objections are irrelevant. Concerns are irrelevant. You will join us."Just like the Borg, aren't they? The only difference is they don't inject nanoprobe into you.
I hate to say this, but whoever joins this guy needs his or her brains checked.
Another TVI Express member realized he'd been suckered
He was so excited, he joined, then he realized the whole thing went nowhere. Nothing happened. Nobody had the same enthusiasm he did. He was blinded by greed, but sucked in by his friend "Bob", and joined without "due diligence".
