@Paratore regarding CCLogic there are posts in the first pages of this thread (4 or 5 ) around Oct/Nov 2025.
There's also something about peter bang, his weird posts and those slides. We covered some of it around that time.
I know my old threads are not perfectly formatted and but it was all done off the cuff.
Maybe throw it all to AI and let it resume it and put it on sticky? :D
Plus someone already investigated CCLogic 15 years ago (in 2010): johnnydoe.is/threads/offshorecorptalk-scam-e…/post-383824
I remember someone posted those slides on oct and @JohnLocke said congrats you found the slides of our old company :)
I guess it's true that once someone is a scammer, they will always be a scammer...
VERY IMPORTANT: if you find something ARCHIVE IT via wayback machine or similar websites.
I already saw a few cases of content on external websites getting deleted or not reachable anymore after being published on here.
HE READS THIS THREAD and I think he may have sent take downs notices to websites to scrub the bad info off them...

of course, that’s the super clever strategy he came up with when he registered the OffshoreCorpTalk trademark. Which I haven’t challenged because I am curious to see what he does with it.
Here is a brief recap of these (first) 18 pages, 9 months long investigation on OffshoreCorptalk:
OffshoreCorpTalk Exposed: A 15-Year One-Man Fraud Operation
OffshoreCorpTalk is not an independent community forum for offshore company formation and tax planning. It is a single-operator fraud machine run by an individual posting as JohnLocke, who has spent over 15 years fabricating an entire “community” to extract money from members and advertisers while promoting questionable services.
Key Findings
Massive scale of fake accounts: Forensic analysis has identified dozens of fabricated identities (with the real number likely much higher). These include batch-created accounts with AI-generated avatars, consecutive registration numbers, and identical writing styles. The forum even broke its own member list page to hide the obvious pattern of fake profiles.
Long-running operation with documented history: The scheme traces back to at least 2009–2010, when victims were already complaining on forums like Quatloos about paying for offshore companies and bank accounts through related entities and receiving nothing. A 2009 BVI Financial Services Commission warning was issued against an earlier company in the same operation.
Fully staged sales threads: JohnLocke routinely deploys multiple fake accounts in vendor promotion threads — fake “high-net-worth” testimonials, fake skeptics, and fake engaged members — to create artificial buzz before stepping in himself to close the sale and direct people to paid memberships or the vendor.
Active cover-up and childish behavior: When exposed, the operator blocked web archiving services, flooded Trustpilot with fake reviews from recycled accounts, and continued creating new AI-generated “lifetime members.” He has also been caught using multiple fake accounts for coordinated emoji attacks against critics and occasionally forgetting which persona he is using.
Monetization model: Real value is near zero. Members pay for a “Mentor Gold Group” that offers outdated, public-domain, or low-quality AI-generated content. Advertisers are sold traffic that is largely manufactured by the operator’s own puppets. JohnLocke has even layered his own escrow service on top for an extra fee.
The Bottom Line
OffshoreCorpTalk is a carefully constructed illusion. One man has spent 15 years talking to himself through dozens of fake accounts, charging real people to watch the performance, and using the resulting fake consensus to funnel victims toward services that benefit him. The “community” is the product. The fraud is the business.
@ActionMan responded claiming he had been hospitalized by stress and burnout and that’s why his business stopped functioning. Odd, I thought people built businesses to run, at least for a time, in their absence. How else does one ever take any time off?

When he scammed me, he claimed he disappeared because he had a baby.
Later, he was hospitalized.
Etc. The usual low-level scammer repertoire.
That said, I would be hospitalized if I abandoned my businesses for a few hours, not the other way around :D
You'd think he would've been arrested at some point. But in the early 00's and 10's police departments were not yet so well aware of these kinds of antics on the internet. On top of that, he is just a small fish who also moves from country to country. I keep hoping that his actions will one day catch up with him.
His so-called 'tax case' in Denmark does make me suspect that he once came to the attention of the authorities though.
In Switzerland they may be turning the other cheek for one of his cheap scams and call it a day. He should move to Romania or Bulgaria like he suggested doing. In the Balkans they are not that forgiving.

Nobody cares about fraud between private citizens unless there’s a political reason. Because the state has nothing to gain.

Not the authorities, but some friends of his victims. Which are the kind of people he deserves to deal with, and eventually will.
Perhaps he is staying in Switzerland on the wrong assumption that he is safe from such event.
The clown @ActionMan has now openly published client name, exact amount and currency of account transferred, transaction date, and other details of a client’s financial business in a public venue. Such small time, petty scammers that inhabit that place.
That forum is a cesspool of scammers! Like WTF???!!! How do these people sleep at night? 🤦 🤦 🤦
@JohnLocke has always been active in the payment processing sector... who knows if that Tyler is not him?
Even if he is not, he is allowed to use OCT as a showcase of his scam.

He is active in this business but cannot manage to receive credit card payments through his UK Ltd on Offshorecorptalk.
From what I remember, he once had a Stripe account for Blackwater that he somehow lost.
He has asked many times about alternatives because he has no idea what he is doing, which makes him sound like an amateur.
I already suspect a specific account will be used for this in the future, so let’s wait and see. He may even be foolish enough to continue using the ActionMan account.
This genius even claims he can filter fraudulent payments better than Stripe can. He believes a small, one person operation with a few virtual assistants managing the accounts is superior to a real large scale player.

That thread is a good laugh. I suspect @JohnLocke hasn’t seen the latest developments yet or he’d be deleting posts left and right.

It is very clear to me that while he represents his services as "tailor-made", just like most PSP and OTC providers, his incentives are to send out dangerously high payouts with mundane B2B "marketing invoices".
@Paratore in my opinion, his recent actions implies that he didn't have the money to pay out. Just like in a bank-run, he couldn't make the client whole, so had to come up with bs excuses. Massive red-flag, and makes me wonder how unhealthy his business is. @JohnnyDoe perfectly covered the payment processor graveyard.
Also a terrible look on client confidentiality. He folded like a lawn chair for something that he admitted was due to his own "lack of prompt communication".
ilke was faster than me... all @ActionMan posts are 100% written with ai, the whole story, the vanessa money thing, the hospitalized thing etc It's all BS 🤣
also he continues to repeat "admin is happy with it" and that's extremely suspect :)

And yet another Mentor Group Claudeposter coming in to defend
@Tea was scouting property in the Dubai Hills lmao
By the way, @JohnnyDoe, I cannot upload any attachments, and it is not possible to embed photos from prnt.sc either, what's the solution here?
