Welcome to The Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger blog, where we expose the truth behind scams, Ponzi schemes, and deceptive multilevel marketing (MLM) ventures.
Today, we’re shining a light on Megan Lynch’s latest venture—a questionable MLM initiative launching under the guise of financial freedom, empowerment, and even faith.
This blog accompanies my upcoming YouTube Live, where I’ll dissect this so-called opportunity and reveal the troubling tactics Lynch employs to lure unsuspecting victims. You won’t want to miss the live breakdown of her launch day antics, but first, let’s dive into what we already know.
The Grand Deception: Lynch’s “Opportunity”
Megan Lynch has promised to reveal the name of her new business today, but there are already enough red flags to make even the most optimistic MLM supporter pause. While Lynch claims her lawyers have prepared the terms and conditions, she’s conveniently neglected to provide any details about these legal advisors—or even the products she’s supposedly selling. Instead, the focus is entirely on recruitment and financial returns, hallmarks of a classic Ponzi scheme.
How It Works:
- Join for Free (but not for long): Participants are told they can secure a spot at the top of the pyramid for free. However, within 24-48 hours, everyone will be required to pay $25 to keep their position.
- Recruit 7 People: Each recruit who pays $25 generates $10 in commissions for the recruiter. Recruit seven people, and you’ve turned $25 into $70—a threefold return.
- No Real Product: Lynch teases two “product packages” but offers zero details, raising questions about whether this is just a front for a gifting scheme.
The Problem:
This structure is unsustainable and predatory. It relies entirely on recruitment rather than product sales, a textbook definition of a pyramid scheme. What’s worse, Lynch cloaks her operation in religious rhetoric, claiming it’s “God’s work,” while encouraging tactics designed to exploit desperation and trust.
Megan Lynch’s Troubling History
Megan Lynch’s history in the MLM world is far from reassuring. She’s been linked to numerous schemes, including:
- HyperVerse: A $1.9 billion Ponzi scheme connected to Bitcoin Rodney, who is now incarcerated.
- ZAP Strategy PAMM: A supposed trading solution that prioritized recruitment over results.
- BFX Standard, Tradera, XtreamFX Global, and More: All ventures with unrealistic income claims and a focus on recruitment over genuine product value.
Each of these schemes shares common traits: lack of transparency, high-pressure tactics, and an emphasis on recruitment. These patterns make it clear that Lynch’s latest venture is just another iteration of her MLM playbook.
Yesterday’s Chaos: Shutting Down the Zoom Meeting
In a bold move, my team managed to disrupt a 600-attendee Zoom meeting hosted by Lynch, forcing her to start a new meeting with a different link. In the reopened meeting, a pastor began with a prayer, silencing questions and reinforcing blind trust. It was an alarming display of manipulation, blending faith with financial exploitation.
Lynch’s insistence on portraying this as a divine mission only deepens the concern. Using religion as a shield for deceptive practices is not just unethical—it’s deeply harmful to those who trust her.
What Makes This Scheme Illegal?
At its core, this venture appears to be a gifting scheme, which is illegal in many jurisdictions. Here’s why:
- No Real Product: Genuine MLM businesses sell products or services. This initiative offers nothing tangible, focusing solely on recruitment and monetary exchanges.
- Unsustainable Model: Pyramid schemes collapse when recruitment slows, leaving the majority of participants with losses.
- Exploitation of Trust: By invoking religious themes, Lynch manipulates people’s faith to gain their trust and participation.
Why This Matters
MLM scams like this don’t just steal money—they steal trust, hope, and often the relationships that participants rely on for support. Lynch’s exploitation of faith and desperation makes this scheme particularly harmful, preying on those who can least afford to lose.
