TelexFree claims to be a communciations provider (sells VOIP packages), but also offers "AdCentral", which is a clone of Ad Surf Daily "auto surf" ponzi. They were recently issued an injunction by court in Acre, Brazil to stop paying the recruiters.
And the TelexFree participants went absolutely bananas.
According to PatrickPretty.com, Brazilians are spamming all major Western media Facebook presenses, including NBC, CBS, CNN, NYTimes, etc. claiming they are being persecuted.
Some even made Youtube Videos, which are rather entertaining, but hilarious when you consider their source:

According to PatrickPretty.com, Brazilians are spamming all major Western media Facebook presenses, including NBC, CBS, CNN, NYTimes, etc. claiming they are being persecuted.
Some even made Youtube Videos, which are rather entertaining, but hilarious when you consider their source:
- One video used "cattle encircle to protect calf from lions" metaphor to tell judges to leave them alone, stealing the video from NatGeo in South Africa.
- Another guy walked into the virtual office (provided by Regus) of TelexFree in Massachussets, US, and pretend that the entire building works for TelexFree. As he's speaking Portuguese, nobody challenged him.
- Another video had a member cosplay as Rambo (with an LED lighted "weapons") claiming to defend democracy (i.e. TelexFree) and ask people to 'stand up for their rights'
This sort of denial behavior was well exhibited by various groups undergoing a psychosis after being scammed.
In Colombia, when DMG Grupo went bust after David Murcia was arrested, people went on hunger strikes chanting "We believe in God and David Murcia"
In the US, believers in the Zeek Rewards Ponzi, 10 months later, still claimed "there were no victims until the government stepped in", something the Brazilians are claiming now as well.
In India, some Speak Asia victims formed an "association" and actually tried to PAY OFF a victim who brought lawsuits against the scam, thinking it would help them get back their money.
There's a Chinese idiom... Those in the scheme see nothing; those outside the scheme see clearly.
And we're seeing plenty.
