The scheme launched from Dubai in approximately mid-2024, offering passive investment returns of 9.48% to 15.01% per month depending on investment tier, with minimum investment of $100 and maximum of $1,000,000. The business required new members to join via an existing member's referral code. A 15-rank MLM compensation plan paid recruiters for onboarding new participants, with advertised referral rewards of up to 80%. A 35% withdrawal penalty applied to withdrawals made within the first year of membership. The platform marketed several products including the 'EX-AI' automated trading bot, a Neyro AI trading agent, a DeFi exchange, flash loans, digital debit cards, and broader DeFi services. These products were presented under a fintech and Web3 branding framework. Independent on-chain analysis found no observable trading logic in the relevant smart contracts; instead, the contracts appeared designed to accept deposits and redistribute funds among wallets, consistent with a Ponzi structure. One wallet received approximately $31.7 million over 17 days through more than 120 transactions, with roughly $30.5 million subsequently redistributed across hundreds of addresses.","heading":"Business Model and Structure","severity":"critical","sources":[{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Aurum Foundation collapses, 'we got hacked!' exit-scam","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/aurum-foundation-collapses-we-got-hacked-exit-scam/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"AURUM Foundation & NEYRO Exposed: The 'AI Trading Bot' That Doesn't Trade - Blockchain Investigation","type":"research","url":"https://dehek.substack.com/p/aurum-foundation-and-neyro-exposed"},{"credibility":2,"name":"Disruption Banking: We Sat In on Aurum Foundation's Recruiting Call","type":"news_article","url":"https://www.disruptionbanking.com/2026/06/29/we-sat-in-on-aurum-foundations-recruiting-call-they-never-said-investment-once-they-said-referral-marketing/"}]},{"content":"Aurum Foundation has been associated with a succession of frontmen and promoters, with investigative reporting alleging that the actual operators are an anonymous group believed to include Russian nationals. Jan Kroger (real name alleged to be Krogan Jan-Burkhard), a German national, served as the initial public-facing CEO. He has been described in investigative reporting as having no verifiable professional track record, and characterized as a 'Boris CEO' puppet frontman used to project legitimacy. Around February 2025, Bryan Benson, a Peruvian national based in Dubai and Colombia, was appointed CEO. Benson had previously served as Managing Director for Latin America at Binance, and had founded entities including Unchained Ventures, Joinn Finance, and BoF, the latter two described in investigative reporting as abandoned or unregistered. Benson publicly claimed Aurum was licensed in both Dubai and Hong Kong; the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission subsequently confirmed neither claim was accurate. Shane Morand serves as Chief Network Development Officer for US-focused promotion. Morand is the co-founder of Organo Gold, which he departed around 2018 following an alleged attempt to pitch crypto schemes to its distributor network. He subsequently promoted Trujivan (a scheme linked to the Tycoon69 Ponzi) and Decentra, another MLM crypto scheme. Andrew Isaacs serves as COO and is co-founder of the Neyro subsidiary; he has claimed prior roles at Galaxy Digital and Morgan Stanley. Additional promoters linked to earlier collapsed schemes include Ahmad Zen (former Earn World promoter, which collapsed July 2024), and Luigi Bruni and Lee O'Shea (associated with the multi-billion dollar CashFX Group collapse).","heading":"Key Individuals","severity":"critical","sources":[{"credibility":3,"name":"Leeds STV: The Aurum Foundation Scam, A Ponzi Scheme Run by Infamous Fraudsters Jan Kroger and Bryan Benson","type":"news_article","url":"https://lstv.co.uk/news/opinion/aurum-foundation-jan-kroger-bryan-benson.html"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: France blacklists Aurum Foundation for fraud","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/france-blacklists-aurum-foundation-for-fraud/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Aurum Foundation collapses, 'we got hacked!' exit-scam","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/aurum-foundation-collapses-we-got-hacked-exit-scam/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Shane Morand leaves Organo, initiates legal proceedings","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/shane-morand-leaves-organo-initiates-legal-proceedings/"}]},{"content":"Withdrawal issues emerged in the final days of July 2026. On July 26, 2026, withdrawal delays were attributed by the platform to a 'Web3 infrastructure transition.' On July 27, 2026, withdrawals were disabled entirely, with operators citing a 'system update.' On July 29, 2026, the neyro.network domain was seized by Ukrainian registrar QHost. On July 30, 2026, Aurum Foundation publicly announced that it had been the victim of a hack in which attackers 'gained unauthorized access' to internal systems and user funds during infrastructure migration. Investigative reporting and community analysis characterized this announcement as a standard exit-scam pretext, noting the sequence of regulatory escalation, deliberate fund drainage, and service provider withdrawal preceding the 'hack' claim. No independent cybersecurity investigation has been reported to have verified the hack claim as of the date of this report.","heading":"Collapse and Alleged Exit Scam","severity":"critical","sources":[{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Aurum Foundation collapses, 'we got hacked!' exit-scam","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/aurum-foundation-collapses-we-got-hacked-exit-scam/"}]},{"content":"On June 27, 2026, amid escalating international regulatory pressure, Aurum Foundation announced a pivot and partial rebrand centered on the 'Neyro' AI trading agent product. The Neyro brand introduced a NEYRO token and was presented as a non-custodial on-chain execution platform on BNB Smart Chain. Investigative reporting characterized the rebrand as an attempt to shed regulatory scrutiny while continuing the same underlying scheme, and noted that the Neyro vehicle was likely being prepared as the mechanism for a future exit-scam token launch. The neyro.network domain was seized by the Ukrainian registrar QHost on July 29, 2026, one day before the 'hack' exit-scam announcement.","heading":"Neyro Rebrand Attempt","severity":"high","sources":[{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Aurum Foundation MiCA fraud warning from Belgium","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/aurum-foundation-mica-fraud-warning-from-belgium/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"AURUM Foundation & NEYRO Exposed: The 'AI Trading Bot' That Doesn't Trade","type":"research","url":"https://dehek.substack.com/p/aurum-foundation-and-neyro-exposed"},{"credibility":2,"name":"NEYRO: Inside Aurum's Non-Custodial AI Trading Agent Platform (CoinCodex)","type":"news_article","url":"https://coincodex.com/article/84946/neyro-inside-aurums-non-custodial-ai-trading-agent-platform/"}]},{"content":"Aurum Foundation received official warnings, blacklist entries, or criminal referrals from at least ten jurisdictions before its collapse. The Bank of Russia identified signs of a financial pyramid and published Aurum Foundation on its official warning list, with a detection date of July 18, 2025, and an update recorded October 7, 2025. Nigeria's Securities and Exchange Commission issued a fraud warning on January 22, 2026, stating that AURUM BOT was not registered or licensed to solicit investments or operate in the Nigerian capital market. New Zealand's Financial Markets Authority published a warning on May 18, 2026, noting overseas warnings involving alleged pyramid-type characteristics and social media promotion. Greece's Hellenic Capital Market Commission (HCMC) issued a securities fraud warning on May 15, 2026. Belgium's Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA) flagged Aurum Foundation for operating without the required MiCA license in the European Union. Poland's Financial Supervision Authority (KNF) filed a criminal referral to the Warsaw Prosecutor on June 11, 2026, for suspected banking fraud. France's Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF) placed aurum.foundation and aurum-foundation.com on its nationwide crypto-assets blacklist on June 12, 2026, stating the operator was not authorized to offer financial services or investments in France. The Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission added Aurum/Aurum Foundation to its alert list on June 23, 2026, confirming that the entity does not hold an SFC license and is suspected of conducting unlicensed virtual asset trading activities; the SFC specifically noted that claims by the entity's CEO that it held a Hong Kong license were false. Australia's Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) issued a first warning on June 22, 2026, and a second warning on July 14, 2026, noting that Aurum Foundation may be offering financial services to Australian consumers without holding an Australian financial services licence.","heading":"Regulatory Actions","severity":"critical","sources":[{"credibility":1,"name":"Bank of Russia: Aurum Foundation warning list entry","type":"regulatory","url":"https://cbr.ru/eng/inside/warning-list/detail/?id=39074"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Aurum Foundation Ponzi fraud warning from Nigeria","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/aurum-foundation-ponzi-fraud-warning-from-nigeria/"},{"credibility":1,"name":"Financial Markets Authority New Zealand: Aurum Foundation warning","type":"regulatory","url":"https://www.fma.govt.nz/library/unregistered-businesses/aurum-foundation/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Aurum Foundation securities fraud warning from Greece","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/aurum-foundation-securities-fraud-warning-from-greece/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Aurum Foundation MiCA fraud warning from Belgium","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/aurum-foundation-mica-fraud-warning-from-belgium/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: France blacklists Aurum Foundation for fraud","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/france-blacklists-aurum-foundation-for-fraud/"},{"credibility":1,"name":"Hong Kong SFC flags Aurum Foundation as suspicious virtual asset platform (crypto.news)","type":"regulatory","url":"https://crypto.news/hong-kong-sfc-flags-aurum-foundation-as-suspicious-virtual-asset-platform/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"Bitget News: Hong Kong SFC added Aurum Foundation to warning list for unlicensed activities","type":"news_article","url":"https://www.bitget.com/news/detail/12560605473996"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Second Aurum Foundation fraud warning from Australia","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/second-aurum-foundation-fraud-warning-from-australia/"}]},{"content":"Independent blockchain investigation published on Dehek Substack found no identifiable trading logic within the core smart contracts associated with Aurum Foundation and Neyro. Contract code analysis revealed functions designed for deposit management and fund redistribution rather than market execution. One identified wallet received approximately $31.7 million over 17 days via more than 120 transactions; roughly $30.5 million of that total was subsequently redistributed to hundreds of separate wallet addresses. This pattern is consistent with a Ponzi redistribution model rather than returns generated from external trading. The investigation noted that displayed dashboard returns may not reflect genuine external trading profits. No on-chain evidence of functioning AI-driven arbitrage was identified.","heading":"On-Chain Analysis","severity":"critical","sources":[{"credibility":2,"name":"AURUM Foundation & NEYRO Exposed: The 'AI Trading Bot' That Doesn't Trade - Blockchain Investigation (Dehek Substack)","type":"on_chain","url":"https://dehek.substack.com/p/aurum-foundation-and-neyro-exposed"}]},{"content":"Aurum Foundation's website recorded approximately 472,000 monthly visits as of May 2026 and approximately 758,000 monthly visits by June 2026 according to SimilarWeb data cited in investigative reporting. Primary traffic origins included the United States (approximately 19-20%), Germany (16%), Greece (8-14%), Switzerland (10-12%), Netherlands (11-12%), and Belgium (9%). The scheme also had significant reported exposure in Russia and Nigeria based on the regulatory warnings issued by those jurisdictions. Victims reported being charged a $249 upfront fee for a virtual debit card that initially functioned, then was suspended without explanation, with support going silent. Total financial losses have not been independently quantified in publicly available sources as of the date of this report.

Undercover reporting by Disruption Banking published June 29, 2026, documented a live recruiting call in which operators and promoters consistently avoided using the word 'investment,' substituting 'referral marketing' language throughout. This technique is associated with attempts to avoid securities law characterization of the offering. The MLM's 15-rank compensation plan provided financial incentives for participants to recruit regardless of whether the underlying product generated genuine returns. Multiple promoters involved had previously promoted other collapsed MLM crypto schemes, including TLC Trading, Earn World, CashFX Group, Trujivan, and Decentra.","heading":"Promoter Network and Recruitment Tactics","severity":"high","sources":[{"credibility":2,"name":"Disruption Banking: We Sat In on Aurum Foundation's Recruiting Call","type":"news_article","url":"https://www.disruptionbanking.com/2026/06/29/we-sat-in-on-aurum-foundations-recruiting-call-they-never-said-investment-once-they-said-referral-marketing/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Aurum Foundation collapses, 'we got hacked!' exit-scam","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/aurum-foundation-collapses-we-got-hacked-exit-scam/"}]}],"sources_used":[{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Aurum Foundation collapses, 'we got hacked!' exit-scam","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/aurum-foundation-collapses-we-got-hacked-exit-scam/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: France blacklists Aurum Foundation for fraud","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/france-blacklists-aurum-foundation-for-fraud/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Aurum Foundation securities fraud warning from Greece","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/aurum-foundation-securities-fraud-warning-from-greece/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Second Aurum Foundation fraud warning from Australia","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/second-aurum-foundation-fraud-warning-from-australia/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Aurum Foundation MiCA fraud warning from Belgium","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/aurum-foundation-mica-fraud-warning-from-belgium/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Aurum Foundation Ponzi fraud warning from Nigeria","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/aurum-foundation-ponzi-fraud-warning-from-nigeria/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Aurum Foundation pyramid fraud warning from Russia","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/aurum-foundation-pyramid-fraud-warning-from-russia/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Aurum Foundation securities fraud alert from Hong Kong","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/aurum-foundation-securities-fraud-alert-from-hong-kong/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Aurum Foundation caution from New Zealand","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/aurum-foundation-caution-from-new-zealand/"},{"credibility":1,"name":"Bank of Russia: Aurum Foundation warning list entry","type":"regulatory","url":"https://cbr.ru/eng/inside/warning-list/detail/?id=39074"},{"credibility":1,"name":"Financial Markets Authority New Zealand: Aurum Foundation","type":"regulatory","url":"https://www.fma.govt.nz/library/unregistered-businesses/aurum-foundation/"},{"credibility":1,"name":"Hong Kong SFC flags Aurum Foundation as suspicious virtual asset platform (crypto.news)","type":"regulatory","url":"https://crypto.news/hong-kong-sfc-flags-aurum-foundation-as-suspicious-virtual-asset-platform/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"Bitget News: Hong Kong SFC added Aurum Foundation to warning list for unlicensed activities","type":"news_article","url":"https://www.bitget.com/news/detail/12560605473996"},{"credibility":2,"name":"Disruption Banking: We Sat In on Aurum Foundation's Recruiting Call","type":"news_article","url":"https://www.disruptionbanking.com/2026/06/29/we-sat-in-on-aurum-foundations-recruiting-call-they-never-said-investment-once-they-said-referral-marketing/"},{"credibility":2,"name":"AURUM Foundation & NEYRO Exposed: The 'AI Trading Bot' That Doesn't Trade (Dehek Substack)","type":"research","url":"https://dehek.substack.com/p/aurum-foundation-and-neyro-exposed"},{"credibility":3,"name":"Leeds STV: The Aurum Foundation Scam, A Ponzi Scheme Run by Infamous Fraudsters Jan Kroger and Bryan Benson","type":"news_article","url":"https://lstv.co.uk/news/opinion/aurum-foundation-jan-kroger-bryan-benson.html"},{"credibility":2,"name":"NEYRO: Inside Aurum's Non-Custodial AI Trading Agent Platform (CoinCodex)","type":"news_article","url":"https://coincodex.com/article/84946/neyro-inside-aurums-non-custodial-ai-trading-agent-platform/"},{"credibility":3,"name":"Aurum Foundation (AI Crypto Fraud): New Alert for Victims (OpenPR)","type":"community_report","url":"https://www.openpr.com/news/4593728/aurum-foundation-ai-crypto-fraud-new-alert-for-victims"},{"credibility":2,"name":"BehindMLM: Shane Morand leaves Organo, initiates legal proceedings","type":"news_article","url":"https://behindmlm.com/companies/shane-morand-leaves-organo-initiates-legal-proceedings/"}],"summary":"Aurum Foundation is a Dubai-based MLM crypto Ponzi scheme that launched in mid-2024, promising monthly returns of 9.48% to 15.01% through an alleged AI trading bot called EX-AI, with no on-chain evidence of genuine trading activity.
