Yvonne Henry is a Melbourne-based affiliate marketer and self-styled crypto educator who has spent the last several years promoting high-risk, unregulated investment schemes to unsuspecting Australians.
Her name has appeared across multiple failed projects—each promising passive income, life-changing returns, and access to insider crypto strategies. In reality, these platforms operate as pyramid-style scams built on referral commissions and deception.
Henry has been tied to We Are All Satoshi (WAAS), LQUID PAY (original URL Unavailable For Legal Reasons), Boomerang, and Affiliate Marketing 3.0. She routinely hosts Zoom sessions, shares onboarding funnels, and instructs followers on how to circumvent critics and block whistleblowers. Her strongest affiliation is with Sam Lee, founder of HyperVerse, who is under international regulatory scrutiny. Henry’s operations are local in geography but global in reach.
She has travelled to Dubai alongside Sam Lee, where she was photographed and filmed as a leader at exclusive WAAS events—learning and delivering recruitment strategies that would later be used to mislead new investors. These images and video evidence clearly position her not just as a follower, but as a key player in shaping the deception.
Danny de Hek aka The Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger
I’ve spent the last several years tracking the rise—and inevitable collapse—of crypto-based Ponzi schemes. From HyperVerse to LQUID PAY to We Are All Satoshi, these scams come wrapped in slick marketing and false promises of passive income. But behind them are people like Yvonne Henry, a Melbourne-based figure who has become one of the most persistent promoters of unregulated investment schemes in the southern hemisphere.
These scammers can’t stop me. And I can’t stop them. But I can make sure the public knows exactly who they are, what they’re doing, and how to protect themselves.
I operate under the name The Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger, and my mission is simple:
To shine a light on those defrauding everyday investors—often retirees and vulnerable individuals—through multi-level marketing scams disguised as financial freedom.
My work exposing crypto fraud has been featured in:
- Bloomberg Documentary (2025): A 20-minute exposé on Ponzi schemes and crypto card fraud
- News.com.au (2025): Profiled as one of the leading scam-busters in Australasia
- The Press / Stuff.co.nz (2023): Successfully defeated $3.85M gag lawsuit; court ruled it was a vexatious attempt to silence whistleblowing.
- The Guardian Australia (2023): National warning on crypto MLMs affecting Aussie families
- ABC News Australia (2023): Investigation into Blockchain Global and its collapse
- The New York Times (2022): A full two-page feature on dismantling HyperVerse and its global network

The Real Yvonne Henry: From LQUID PAY to Boomerang
Yvonne Henry’s scams operate like clockwork. Once one collapses or is exposed, she rebrands—often within weeks—pivots the narrative, and resumes recruitment under a new name.
From We Are All Satoshi (WAAS) to LQUID PAY to the now-unfolding Boomerang “trading” platform, the core structure remains unchanged:
- Unsubstantiated returns
- Recruitment-based commissions
- “License” purchases in place of real products
- Binary MLM structures (“left leg” and “right leg”)
- Ongoing rebranding when scrutiny catches up
Boomerang was pitched as an AI-powered arbitrage bot running on flash loans. According to Henry and her circle, a $500 license could unlock up to $1 million in trading leverage. They claimed users could generate $1,500 a day in returns by clicking a button a few times. But when the platform launched, Boomerang was restricted to one trade per day, and users were earning just $0.20 to $0.60 per trade.
Even more egregious: 65% of every license payment went to affiliate commissions. Those commissions weren’t hidden—they were the point. Boomerang collapsed under its own weight and refunded users not in real money, but in BTCC tokens, a worthless digital asset that couldn’t be sold, converted, or used outside of the system.
“Keep clicking,” Yvonne told her followers, “your breakthrough is coming.”
Evidence of Retirement Fund Misuse
One of the most shocking pieces of evidence I’ve uncovered is a Private Zoom Recording in which Yvonne Henry and Sam Lee coach two Australian investors—Paul-David Hughes and Vili Hughes—through handing over $102,200 USDT of their self-managed superannuation fund.
There is no legal oversight. No compliance. Just informal instructions, an improvised promissory note, and vague claims of wealth to come. “I’ve taken plenty of people’s money out of self-managed super funds,” Yvonne brags casually, laughing on the call.
That video, now made public, reveals not just reckless financial guidance—it shows how deeply normalised this behaviour has become in her circles. Neither Paul-David nor Vili have ever come forward. But they aren’t alone.
Once the USDT is sent, the money cannot be retrieved. None of the platforms—WAAS, LQUID PAY, or Boomerang—offer any mechanism to convert back to fiat. These systems are designed to be a one-way street.
A Call for Victims to Come Forward
If you or someone you know has interacted with Yvonne Henry or her network and lost money—or were pressured into converting superannuation funds, buying licenses, or transferring crypto to any of these projects—this is your chance to come forward.
Your story could help protect others. You can remain anonymous. You can stay private. But your information might be the missing piece.
The Australian Inner Circle
Yvonne Henry does not work alone. She is part of a recurring group of promoters tied to every major crypto MLM in the region. They appear in one another’s Zoom calls, funnel users between platforms, and often rebrand together when schemes collapse:
- Janet Dorothy Hort
- Brendan Larkin
- Carl N. Miller III
- Kathryn Anne Longley
- George Marquis
- Lloyd Egan
- Kylie Raphael
These individuals helped promote, fund, and defend the Boomerang launch. Many of them appear across prior projects like HyperVerse, Daisy AI, and Ultron.
Right of Reply and Upcoming Video Exposé
Yvonne Henry has been formally contacted via email and Telegram and offered a right of reply to these allegations prior to publication.
She was notified in no uncertain terms:
“Let’s not pretend we’re strangers. You’ve known exactly who I am for years. I’ve stormed your Zoom calls, published recordings, and disrupted your recruitment pipelines. And now, I’m publishing everything.”
Henry has ignored past outreach and has gone so far as to teach her followers how to block me, label me as a threat, and erase communication trails. But she cannot erase the facts. And she cannot escape accountability.
A comprehensive video exposé is now in development. It will include:
- Unreleased Zoom footage involving her direct financial coaching
- Training materials tied to WAAS, LQUID PAY, and Boomerang
- Screenshots of affiliate onboarding systems
- Photos and video of her alongside Sam Lee in Dubai
- Network mapping of her known associates across Australia and New Zealand
The exposé will be released in the coming weeks across all public platforms.
In Her Own Words: Yvonne Henry’s Greatest Hits
The best evidence often comes from the scammers themselves. Here are some of the most telling statements Yvonne Henry has made in her own voice:
“I am definitely 100% all in with Affiliate Marketing 2.0 and Bitcoin Code… We’re all in in Australia.”
—Yvonne declares her full commitment to another high-risk affiliate program linked to Sam Lee.
“Sam, you don’t have to have it all on your own shoulders… I’m going to tear up. I’m tearing up now… It’s not all on you. We all personally made that decision.”
—Yvonne comforts Sam Lee during a WAAS Zoom call, deflecting blame for financial losses by encouraging shared accountability.
“Velocity Achieves Victory. That’s what this is all about. And Sam has been talking about wanting to help people… He’s taught me, he’s taught Carl, he’s taught Kate, and we’re starting to make some good money.”
—Yvonne promoting the “VAV” program under the VidiLOOK umbrella, built on ambiguous future tokens and referral hype.
“I did say in the VidiLOOK chat, wow, that’s $7,800 profit—how cool. And it is profit, but not profit you’re going to get in your hot little hands in the next week or two… So I just want to apologise for that mistake of mine.”
—A rare walk-back from Yvonne, correcting false expectations she set during a public Zoom.
“Block him please. I’ve got Danny de Hek’s phone number saved so I can block him.”
—Yvonne instructing fellow promoters (Terry Fitzgerald) on how to avoid warnings from whistleblowers.
“This is the We Are All Satoshi wallet. At the moment, we have 53 Bitcoin… this is going up by one or two a day.”
—Yvonne presenting an unaudited crypto wallet address as proof of solvency.
“Everybody should understand this… very worth reading.”
—Encouraging users to read internal marketing PDFs and “e-magazines” as financial education.
“Here are great little photos about the big Multiverse package, about Bitcoin… great tools if you are a promoter.”
—Yvonne revealing how WAAS “education” resources are really affiliate sales aids.
“There is a live meeting every night. Usually it’s at 4 a.m., hence why I’m doing this now—because 4 a.m. is a little bit rough for us Aussies I reckon.”
—Justifying her own spin-off Zoom sessions targeted at Australian audiences.
“We did one ourselves—the Aussies did one! And this one’s had 1.5k views, more than others, so I’m happy about that.”
—Celebrating visibility and engagement with Australian-led WAAS training calls.
These quotes are lifted directly from Zoom recordings, YouTube shorts, and live broadcasts involving Henry and her team. They paint a portrait not of a misguided believer, but of a conscious operator repeatedly executing the same deception playbook.
Closing Statement
