One might have thought that the Metalstream team went into hiding after they couldn't deliver on their promise to gold miners, but a scammer's gotta scam.
They regrouped under
Sonata Capital or more specifically the
Sonata Asia Growth Fund Ltd, Labuan company LL16334 and went after a cement company.
The approached
ASN Cement with an [url="https://asncement.com/ASN%20-%20Notice%20of%20EGM%20(EGM%2028.08.2020)%20(F).pdf"]offer to fund them for $342,000,000[/url] in exchange for 50% ownership.
It doesn't look like the company's shareholders fell for it, but you have got to wonder what goes through the minds of people who think this will work.
Is someone dumb enough to give up their company to crypto nerds with no money, or is there a bait-and-switch here like what David Vincent at Canamex fell for:
Give us $100K to "mint tokens using our special technology" and in return promise funding that never arrives.
It might be a bit unfair to lay all of this at Eli's feet even though he is the CEO, after all he has been busy moving to a different country and setting up a real estate scam, so here are the other names from their web site:
- Rohan Cavaliero
- Andrew Walsh
- Matthew Averay
- Bruno Clermont
- Khadija (Aja) Yunus
