Indonesia: TVI Express Cannot Redeem My Trip Procedure to claim Hotel Voucher from TVI Express cannot be proceeded Siska Lea - Reader's Voice Jakarta - In May 2010 I join TVI express with some of my friends. It is a company that claims itself to be a web based Joint Venture Travel company. As a reward I was given hotel voucher (which was initially promoted to be usable freely worldwide ... wow ...). The story begins when I was intending to redeem the voucher. Here is the chronology:

On October 12 I was planning to redeem the hotel voucher for 4 days 3 night in Singapore. However, the process cannot be proceeded as there was no fund (I thought that it can be paid using Visa/MasterCard/PayPay like Agoda). It was clear later on that I had to deposit a sum of money to Ms Goenawan banking account (rumors said that she is the top dog of TVI but she was not brave enough to pick up my call).

On the 13th I deposit the money and it was registered by October 18. By the time I resume the redemption procedure the only thing happen was "Τhere waѕ no ѕuch hotel". Hmm ... strange. Out of curiosity I tried again with different account.

As it turns out, using a different account with no fund at all returns 40 different hotels to choose from for the same date. Weird huh (hmm .. I did not dare to accuse them. I am afraid it will be just like the "Ms Prita" case [NOTE: Prita refers to a patient named "Prita" who was misdiagnosed website and the hospital try to silence her with a libel suit).

Namibia: TVI Express Is a Pyramid Scheme and Illegal BANK OF NAMIBIA WARNS PUBLIC ABOUT TWO SCAMS: HOLIDAYS AND CASH, AND TVI EXPRESS
The Bank of Namibia has become aware of two networks/schemes known as Holidays and Cash (H&C) and TVI Express that are operating in Namibia in violation of the law.

The activities of the above resemble those of selling and marketing pyramid schemes as defined in section 1 of the Banking Institutions Act, (Act No. 2 of 1998) in terms of receiving funds from the public.

In a statement issued in Windhoek on Friday, the Bank of Namibia warns the public about the dangers of investing or participating in these particular schemes and other schemes of a similar nature.

�Furthermore, the Bank of Namibia would also like to caution all promoters of H&C and TVI Express, including persons who attempt to recruit others, either by word-of-mouth or via spamming email messages to join these schemes, anywhere in Namibia, to stop such practices immediately.

�After the Bank of Namibia scrutinised the business models of both H&C and TVI Express against the relevant provisions of the Act, the Bank of Namibia concluded that the business operations of the two above-noted schemes place substantial emphasis on recruitment of participants to these schemes. In this respect, the schemes offer lucrative incentives to the participants, calculated primarily on the basis of the number of participants or members they recruited into the schemes. It is evident that these recruitment-based incentives serve as a bait to attract potential participants into joining the schemes, with the prospect of making easy money by recruiting others.

�Furthermore in the whole, selling of purported products or services is a small component of the business models in the two schemes and therefore designed to defraud members of the public.

�Given the above, these business models contravene the provisions of the Act when subjected to the definition of �receiving funds from the public� and are therefore considered illegal. The Bank of Namibia therefore appeals to each and every law-abiding citizen of this country to refrain from participating in any activities of H&C and TVI Express,� says Ndangi Katoma, head of corporate communication of the Bank of Namibia.

The Bank of Namibia further requests the public to report such activities to the bank through the Banking Supervision Department at 283 5040 or email: romeo.nel@bon.com.na or Corporate Communications Division.

Bank of Namibia is the national bank, equivalent to the American "Federal Reserve Bank".
In fact, Bank of Namibia in August 2011 reissued the statement, finding that TVI Express fraudsters are STILL in the country, and will be going after them if they don't stop cheating people.
WINDHOEK - Bank of Namibia maintains its position that the popular Travel Venture International (TVI) Express is a pyramid scheme, and would be forced to go after those engaged in the scheme, since it contravenes Namibian banking laws.

Swaziland to Investigate TVI Express Central Bank to investigate
MBABANE - The Central Bank of Swaziland says it will investigate the TVI Express because it actually operates like the defunct Diamond Africa.

Martin Dlamini, the Governor said, he had not heard of TVI and would definitely instruct his team to launch an investigation.

The difficulty to get hold of TVI Express is that it does not have a permanent office. Their members are everywhere across the country. A majority of them are in South Africa.Dlamini wanted to send his team to its office tomorrow because pyramid schemes were different. He said others posed as sellers of products when, as a matter of fact, they were pure pyramid schemes.

"Ҭhe Diamond Africa waѕ doing tɦe ѕame tɦing, purporting tߋ bе selling diamonds ɑnd askiոg people to join ɑt a fee. It looҡs like tҺey are doing the same, іf thеy do like that, it�s a criminal offence and we will facilitate tҺeir arrest ѵery sooո," said the governor of the Central Bank of Swaziland.

Meanwhile, Sifiso Mahlalela, the senior agent, had assured the prospective members that the Central Bank of Swaziland would definitely permit them to operate because TVI has a global licence. The governor said there was nothing like a global licence, all international companies operating in the country have local licences for doing business in Swaziland. Cited from website Islamic Council Declared TVI Express "Haram"Muslim Council on Aceh, Indonesia, declared TVI Express a "money game" (i.e. scam) and thus, haram "unclean" for followers of Islam.
"Consultative Council оf Ulama (MPU) Aceh forbid/proscribe activities ҡnown ɑs the Money Game (MG) and Multi-level marketing (MLM) TVI Express."

South Africa: TVI Express "Scam Ԍoes Belly Uρ"Local authorities launched investigation, and local "distributors" quit earlier in the month.
The pyramid scheme, Travel Ventures International Express (TVI Express), which took South Africa by storm in the past few months has disappeared, leaving those who invested in it high and dry.

The Department of Trade and Industry said yesterday it had opened a police case against TVI Express �for operating a prohibited Pyramid Promotional Scheme�.

�This matter was reported to SAPS Commercial Crime Unit in Durban in September for further investigation and prosecution,� said Trade and Industry spokesperson Sidwell Medupe.

�We received information about TVI Express and after thorough analysis it was found that it is perpetuating a prohibited Pyramid Promotional Scheme.�

South Africa: National Reserve Bank and Police go after TVI ExpressSouth African Reserve Bank (SARB) announced formal investigation into TVI Express, and South African Police spokesman called it a "genuine scam".
The South African Reserve Bank (SARB) is investigating the rampant Travel Ventures International Express get rich quick scheme which promises to make millionaires of everyone who joins. Run and promoted by high-profile black socialites such as top DJ Alex Mthiyane of the popular Igagasi 99.5 FM radio station, it has thousands of would-be millionaires attending its presentations in KZN and the Eastern Cape.
...

SARB has confirmed that it was investigating whether the scheme was collecting money from the public illegally.

Business owners and married couple, Mr Irvin Shirindzi (28) and his wife Glenda (25) were released on R3 000 bail each following a brief appearance on charges of money laundering in the Polokwane Magistrate�s Court on Monday.
Their appearance follows after their business, known as TVI Express was raided by the Police last Thursday following a joint investigation by the Hawks, Limpopo Organised Crime, Limpopo Crime Intelligence and Limpopo Commercial Unit.
TVI Express is seemingly marketing a scheme to clients that has already been declared a pyramid scheme and illegal in South Africa.
South Africa: Investigation expanded into TVI ExpressSouth African Reserve Bank, which had only announced investigations into TVI Express in two provinces, was surprised to hear from victims from all over South Africa. Therefore, it is expanding investigation to all South Africa, bringing in another lawfirm to handle the investigation. That lawfirm in turn has hired one of the premier Forensic Accounting firms in South Africa, determined to track down as many victims as possible to bring the TVI Express scammers to justice.
