Trading themed “click a button” Ponzi

Esom App fails to provide ownership or executive information on its website.

In fact as I write this, Esom App’s public facing website is nothing more than an affiliate login form:

Esom App operates from two known domains;

• es-glzx.com – first registered in 2014, private registration last updated on December 27th, 2022 (acquired on or around this date)
• esom.cc – privately registered on November 3rd, 2022

SimilarWeb currently ranks top sources of website traffic to Esom App’s .COM website as Ukraine (88%) and Russia (3%).

Top sources of traffic to Esom App’s .CC domain are Pakistan (40%) and Egypt (29%), Slovenia (12%) and China (8%).

This suggests whoever is running Esom App is using different domains to target different countries.

As always, if an MLM company is not openly upfront about who is running or owns it, think long and hard about joining and/or handing over any money.

Esom App’s Products

Esom App has no retailable products or services.

Affiliates are only able to market Esom App affiliate membership itself.

Esom App’s Compensation Plan

Esom App affiliates invest $10 or more in tether (USDT). This is done on the promise of a weekly return:

• VXM Strategy – 15.43% over seven days
• MACD Strategy – 16.88% over seven days
• CCI Strategy – 17.84% over seven days
• KD Factor Timing Strategy – 16.92% over seven days

After seven days, reinvestment is required to continue earning.

There doesn’t appear to be any fund differences between Esom App’s different investment plans. Instead, Esom App requires affiliates to log in and periodically click a button.

How frequently this button needs to be clicked is determined by which plan is invested in:

• VXM Strategy – click button every 2 hours
• MACD Strategy – click button every 12 hours
• CCI Strategy – click button every 24 hours
• KD Factor Timing Strategy – click button every 72 hours

The MLM side of Esom App pays on recruitment of affiliate investors.

Esom App pays referral commissions via a unilevel compensation structure.

A unilevel compensation structure places an affiliate at the top of a unilevel team, with every personally recruited affiliate placed directly under them (level 1):

If any level 1 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 2 of the original affiliate’s unilevel team.

If any level 2 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 3 and so on and so forth down a theoretical infinite number of levels.

Esom App caps payable unilevel team levels at five.

Referral commissions are paid as a percentage of tether invested across these five levels as follows:

• level 1 (personally recruited affiliates – 10%
• level 2 – 8%
• level 3 – 5%
• levels 4 and 5 – 2%

Joining Esom App

Esom App affiliate membership is free.

Full participation in the attached income opportunity requires a minimum $10 investment in tether (USDT).

Esom App Conclusion

Esom App is yet another “click a button” app Ponzi scheme.

Esom App represents clicking a button is tied to trading activity.

It isn’t. All Esom App is doing is recycling invested funds to pay returns over seven days.

Typically we see investment restrictions to incentivize affiliates to invest more. In Esom App, lower-tier plans appear are used as convenience marketing.

The fact that you can invest the same amount in a higher plan and have to click a button less frequently, makes Esom App’s lower-tier plans redundant.

Esom App is part of a group of “click a button” app Ponzis that have emerged since late 2021.

Including Esom App, BehindMLM has thus far documented forty-seven “click a button” app Ponzis. Most of them last a few weeks to a few months before collapsing.

The same group of Chinese scammers are believed to be behind the “click a button” app Ponzi plague.
