TVI Express in Atlanta Georgia, where TVI Express is illegal? Hah!

Some website called Network Marketing in Atlanta is advertising TVI Express:


Clearly, they never heard about the cease and desist order:

(for more TVI Express genuine news articles, not spun ****, click here )

So who is the moron that published this ****? Turns out, he's not in Georgia at all:

However, this makes no sense, as search for Sterling Couch at Port Ludlow Washington (and that phone number) revealed that this guy is a CPA. I thought CPA had more sense than promoting a scam?

It's more likely that this CPA somehow got his name attached to this domain which was then used for spam. I doubt the CPA even heard of TVI Express.

"Lawrence Russell" still spamdexing the with zombie articles

Previously, we've highlighted "Lawrence Russell" (i.e. Larry), who is supposed to be promoting his Global Resorts business. Instead, his website apparently is in bot mode and randomly publishing zombie articles, some of which are in DIRECT COMPETITION to his GRN, and he just advertised his competitor, AGAIN. Not to mention he cited a video pushing a company that had been officially issued a "cease and desist" by a consumer protection agency of the US government! 


Larry here has no brains. Clearly, he is as smart as the bot powering his site. Garbage in, garbage out.

Goernani Goenawan Publishing Book About Her Rise? Or Her Crimes?

According to a Business Paper in Indonesia (who apparently forgot to double check the source), Goenani Goenawan, leading Indonesian scammer of PT TVI Express, is publishing her biography celebrating rise of woman (i.e. her) in position of power in Indonesia.  NOTE: Following image was auto translated by Google.



The date of the event, as shown in the picture, was June 2011, though somehow this article JUST appeared in print.

However, as we reported before, PT TVI Express Indonesia, the company Goenawan was pushing, was declared illegal, and its license revoked by BKPM, the Indonesia business license board back on August 3rd, 2011.

As you can see, "zombie" articles are not limited to spammers. Even newspapers who don't check their sources can publish "zombie" articles that someone presents a scam in a favorable light.

And provide more ammunition for scammers to recruit more victims.

Graphics Design Essentials and Spam, generic spamticle site again

Didn't we see this site already? Yep, several times, including "Lawrence Tam" and one just a few days ago.

This article even ADMITS it is a zombie article, as it gave itself a date of 2009!

In fact, the "top authors" count is IDENTICAL to that other one. Which suggests that this is the SAME SITE, just a different domain name.

TVI Express Spams Flash Web Design website

Does TVI Express, or Business Advertising have anything to do with Flash Web Design? Nope.
RCRiches is now pushing another pyramid scheme called Car Plus Cash. This is a zombie article.

Another TVI Express Zombie Post on... Canada Home Biz?

More spam on these alleged biz blogs...


Just so where credit is due, the domain is owned by:

Domain name: workfromhomecanadabiz.ca
Domain status: registered
Creation date: 2011/01/17
Expiry date: 2016/01/17
Updated date: 2011/03/17

However, he didn't make the video. If you go to the Youtube website, you find that the video was actually made by an Aussie by the name of Mark Nelson, who used the Youtube Handle "bestHomeBizEva", and he only ever posted THREE videos, all at the end of 2009, when he first registered. Two are promoting TVI Express, and one's bashing Polaris Media.  


So Kris Sheldon, you are a zombie revivifier. Stop spamming the web with zombie articles. 


Now back to Mark Nelson... He has a LinkedIn Profile that STILL says he's "Team Leader TVI Express". However, the websites linked to, MarkNelsonOnline.com, is no longer registered (domain expired). Given that Australia had pretty much sued TVI Express out of business there, this is no surprise. What's surprising is Kris Sheldon reviving the zombie spam of a long dead scam.

Another spam blog... randomly generated?

Is there a "bot" out there registering random domain names, then set up Wordpress blogs on them with spam / scraped / stolen content? It certainly seem so, as there's a proliferation of such random spam blogs. And here's another one:


Only 3 months of content, most of which are bogus. Even the title doesn't match the domain name. Links goes to the defunct tviexpressreviewblog. 

Spam blog, zombie content.

Spam blog posts TWO versions of same zombie article

First of all, getting fat is a serious issue. So why does "gettingfat.net" posts articles about get rich quick schemes?


But here's another article just like it!  Can you guess which is the original and which is spun through a rewriter?


If you say the "first one", you would be correct! The one that says "TVI Convey" is the one that's spun.

Furthermore, both articles refers to Alan Cosens, who have already turned AGAINST TVI Express!

This is a spam blog, and a very obvious one, and it revives zombie articles.

Who is Gregory Drake and Why is he reviving TVI Express Zombie Articles?

Just the other day I found this:


Apparently Mr. Drake enjoys looking at you down his nose.

What's interesting is that the website, "ScienceToSuccess.com" belongs to a "Greg Smith", not Gregory Drake.

The first URL that pointed to, EasyMLMGoldMine.com, goes to "Proxy Inc", which means it's on "private registration", owner hidden.

Now why would a real reputable person do that?

But what's really interesting is how the article scraper even scraped the related posts and comments:


TVI Express is NOT a success. Don't be bogus and cite TVI Express hilarity. Only makes your website bogus.

Who is Lloyd Dobson and why was he pushing TVI Express?

Seems Lloyd Dobson had once pushed TVI Express quite hard:

In fact, this video is still showing up on various spam blogs.


However, this is zombie content, because here's the original Youtube video, with date:

So what's on LloydDobson.com right now? Something called "NetDivvy". No sign of TVI Express.

Zombie content!

"Me Expressed" is now confirmed spam blog stealing zombie content

This "MeExpressed" website has a ton of zombie content, and one of these is a fresh article claiming "TVI Express is here to stay".

So what's this video about, since it's clearly not fit with the times? What you got here is a guy who calls himself "Matt", claims he already made $10000 from TVI Express, calls all other people "jealous", "liars", and so on.






Then I realized it points to a dead website: 2010bailout.com  The domain reg had expired a long time ago. Try it yourself. You can register it now... but why?

So who is this "Matt", who clearly picked the wrong horse to bet on? He seem to be on Twitter:



AND MySpace... wait, Myspace?


Yep, the same guy. What's really funny is his own profile on MySpace... claims to be "prince of online marketing".


Since he can't even spot a very obvious pyramid scheme, this prince is a pretend prince. A fake, if you will. But his Twitter log is far more telling... Not a single tweet since late 2009!

So what is he doing now? Website's dead. Let's try the phone number given in the tweet... And you get...


Aha! In 2009 he was making videos "TVI Express is here to stay". Only 2-3 months later, he already jumped ship to Diamond Holiday, a TVI Express clone! This content is DEFINITELY zombie content!

However, next page revealed that Matt here is also involved in Gifting Circles (illegal pyramid scheme) and World Ventures, another TVI Express clone.


What's worse, he put his own daughter in the video advertising the gifting circle thing.

Note the same number... again, and it's definitely him. Further search also found him pushing other scams such as Royal Cruise Matrix on Youtube, Veoh, and other video sites.

However, the number currently seems to go to this "Austin Internet Marketing Solutions". We need some other way to track this person down. Let's try looking for "Peoples Program" and Matt, and see what we get...


Hmmm, another URL. Unfortunately, this domain is also expired.

It seems Matt, self-proclaimed "prince of online marketing", may be out of business.

Fake Bank Blog Plagiarizes Bad TVI Express Article

When you see a domain called "Cyprus Online Bank", what do you think it is?

Yet if you go to

http://cyprusonlinebank.com/tvi-express-the-ultimate-get-rich-quick-deal/

You get TVI Express spam.


However, the article is too nicely written. This is clearly copied from somewhere. So I searched... and found this:


Exact same words, but checking the article's bottom shows that the eZineArticle was published in October 2009, almost 2 YEARS ago. So "Ted" here is a plagiarist.

The domain "CyprusOnlineBank" is registered by "Axela Media", with no additional info available. The only "Axela Media" reference I can find is some web design company in Romania.

It's clear this website is a bogus plagiarism blog.

So what of this Mr. Colin Buckingham? He calls himself "global entrepreneur". So what sort of stuff was he pushing?


ProtandimPlus.com --  a website that forwards to LifeVantage, which sells nutritional supplements (reviews are somewhat favorable, see http://expertmlmreview.org/mlm-company-reviews/lifevantage )

One24Pension.com -- a capture page with just a video, which tells you up front: pay them 70 PER MONTH for a chance at good income. Strangely, other websites say $60, which buys you... a box full of "super food" bars. And you need to sign up people. Hmmm...

GetLegalAccess.com -- forwards to Prepaid Legal Services, which is called unviable even by its members. See http://www.mediamoogle.com/

But not a word about TVI Express. Hmmm...

However, a search through Google shows that he used to have a Twitter handle TVIBuzz, which is also linked to a website of the same name. And when was his last post? 2009.


So what is up with TVIbuzz.com?

Well, well, we found a ZOMBIE article! 

It's clear Mr. Colin Buckingham, despite his WASP name, isn't that smart as he had to abandon his TVI Express campaign (but he did, so I give him points for that, unlike people in total denial). His only mistake is he forgot to take down that dumb article. 

And that makes the people (Axela Media, whoever you are) zombie plagiarist spamdexers.

More Scott Crider Zombie TVI Express Spam... this one went through a rewriter

Looking at the fractured English, it's clear this article, which didn't make much sense to start with, went through a rewriter, and emerged as complete gibberish.
