  1. When the United States Government Calls Goliath Ventures Inc a Ponzi Scheme, the Debate Is Over.

    When the United States Government Calls Goliath Ventures Inc a Ponzi Scheme, the Debate Is Over.

    I started documenting Goliath Ventures on 1 September 2025 after investors began quietly telling me withdrawals had stalled. At the time, the explanation was simple: liquidity delays, wallet restrictions, MSB approvals in progress. Weekly emails reassured everyone that patience was required. What began as a financial dispute has now become a federal criminal case. Christopher Alexander Delgado, CEO of Goliath Ventures Inc, has been arrested and charged by the United States government with wire fraud and money laundering. The Department of Justice is alleging that what investors were told was a sophisticated cryptocurrency liquidity pool operation was, in fact, a $328 million Ponzi scheme. THE SCAM BEGINS According to the federal complaint, from January 2023 through January 2026 Goliath Ventures raised at least $328 million from investors. The pitch was modern and technical. Funds would be deployed into cryptocurrency liquidity pools. Monthly returns between 3% and 8% were presented as achievable. Some were told returns were effectively guaranteed. Joint Venture Agreements promised principal would be returned “without diminution or impairment,” with withdrawals processed within five to seven business days. That language created confidence. The contracts looked structured. The dashboards showed monthly distribution rates. The numbers increased. Investors saw what appeared to be performance. THE STRUCTURE UNRAVELS Federal investigators now allege that although investors were told their money was being placed into liquidity pools, little to none of it was meaningfully deployed that way. Instead, the complaint states that new investor funds were used to pay purported returns to earlier investors, to return principal to those requesting withdrawals, and to cover corporate and personal expenses. Bank records cited in the complaint show hundreds of millions flowing into specific business accounts. Approximately $253 million was deposited into one JP Morgan Chase account. Another $75 million went into a Bank of America account. Tens of millions moved into Coinbase wallets allegedly controlled by Delgado. He was identified as the sole signatory on key accounts. Blockchain analysis, including work performed by Chainalysis Government Solutions, allegedly showed only a small fraction of funds ever reaching platforms like Uniswap. Meanwhile, investor dashboards continued to reflect steady monthly returns. If proven, that gap between representation and reality becomes the core of the case. THE LIFESTYLE The complaint also details real estate purchases allegedly funded with investor money. Properties in Winter Park, Kissimmee, Windermere, and Sanford, each valued between approximately $1.15 million and $8.5 million. The government outlines transactions that form part of the money laundering count, including a $300,000 transfer cited in the charging documents. For months, investors were told delays were temporary. Meanwhile, according to the affidavit, funds were cycling internally and assets were being acquired. THE ARREST On February 24, 2026, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Florida issued a press release titled “Goliath Ventures CEO Arrested for Wire Fraud and Money Laundering.” The case is now formally listed as United States v. Christopher Alexander Delgado, Case No. 6:26-mj-01240-LHP. The investigation is being conducted by IRS Criminal Investigation and Homeland Security Investigations.

  2. Explosive Federal Lawsuit: Goliath Ventures Exposed as Massive Ponzi in Shocking Court Docs

    Explosive Federal Lawsuit: Goliath Ventures Exposed as Massive Ponzi in Shocking Court Docs

    I’ve been tracking Goliath Ventures Inc. since September 1, 2025, warning anyone who would listen that this so-called "joint venture" in decentralized finance was nothing more than a textbook Ponzi scheme dressed up in crypto jargon. On February 18, 2026, everything I’ve been saying was laid bare in federal court. Prestige Florida Property Investment LLC filed a blistering complaint in the U.S. District Court, Middle District of Florida (Case No. 6:26-cv-00392), accusing Goliath Ventures and its key players of securities fraud, civil conspiracy, and running an unregistered investment scheme that defrauded investors out of millions. THE SCAM BEGINS It started with a slick Joint Venture Agreement dated November 21, 2024. Investors were told they were "partners" contributing Bitcoin or Ethereum into liquidity pools on Uniswap, promised guaranteed 4% monthly returns—48% annually—with principal supposedly protected or insured. The document emphasized mutual effort and votes, but the reality was far different. Prestige Florida Property Investment LLC deposited $300,000 in March 2025, then another $1,000,000 on July 30, 2025—totaling $1.3 million. Early distributions kept the illusion alive, but in October 2025 the money stopped flowing. THE FALSE ASSURANCES By August 15, 2025, Goliath was sending out emails with a glowing "Financial Audit Review" from Blackblock Management Solutions claiming 115% or more reserves, full liquidity, and compliance with AML, FinCEN, and CTA rules. The report painted a picture of a conservative, rock-solid operation. Then came the November 17, 2025, "Forensic Audit Update"—a sudden "temporary halt" in distributions, blamed on an ongoing third-party forensic review for "gold-standard verification." Participants were assured it was all about safety and transparency. The truth? It was the beginning of the end. THE LULLING EMAILS November 18, 2025: Jonathan Mason relayed reassurances from Eric Clayman—GVI had "plenty of money," excess reserves of $100–200 million (or even "a few hundred million") after payouts, delays only due to audits and banking. On Christmas Day 2025, Chris Delgado himself emailed: "Merry Christmas," then blamed delays on an MSB account setup pushed to January 1, 2026, and announced USDC wallets would be required moving forward. January 19, 2026: more excuses—MSB application at the 80-day mark, institutional wallets restricted for "policy violations." Even account closures turned into bureaucratic nightmares requiring attorney-drafted letters. THE FEDERAL HAMMER The complaint hits with nine counts: federal securities fraud under Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5, sale of unregistered securities (both federal and Florida law), control person liability against Delgado, Mason, and Clayman, civil conspiracy involving the misleading Blackblock report and deliberate delay tactics, fraudulent inducement, FDUTPA violations, and breach of contract as an alternative claim. Prestige is demanding rescission, return of the full $1.3 million principal plus interest, attorneys’ fees, and more. This isn’t speculation anymore—it’s in federal court, building on earlier Broward County cases and potentially drawing SEC and FinCEN eyes. THE HUMAN COST Behind every email and every promise were real people who trusted the 48% returns and the "transparency" narrative. Families, retirees, everyday investors poured in money thinking they were part of something legitimate. When the excuses piled up—audits, banking issues, MSB applications, wallet restrictions—th Buy Me a Coffee I’m on @buymeacoffee. If you like my work, you can buy me a coffee and share your thoughts.

  3. Punit Shah Emails MSB Approval Progress While 3 Broward Lawsuits Hit Goliath Ventures Inc

    Punit Shah Emails MSB Approval Progress While 3 Broward Lawsuits Hit Goliath Ventures Inc

    When a partner like Punit Shah keeps sending the same weekly email claiming the MSB license is progressing while wallets remain the blocker, it’s not an update—it’s a deliberate way to keep investors calm, prevent them from coordinating, and buy another week of silence before the courts force real answers. I’ve been watching this unfold since September 2025. Investors poured hundreds of millions into Goliath Ventures Inc., lured by promises of guaranteed principal and 8.5% monthly returns from cryptocurrency liquidity pools. The sales pitch was flawless—blockchain excellence, pooled assets on exchanges like Uniswap, steady fees from trading volume, no risk to your capital. But the money stopped flowing in late 2025. Excuses shifted from audits to banking issues to pending MSB approval. Now, five months later, Punit Shah’s emails are the last thread holding people in place. The latest one, dated 11 February 2026 Good Day, We are still in a holding pattern with both issues (Wallet Restriction and MSB Approval). I do not have a timeline. I will email EVERYONE AT THE SAME TIME once I hear something concrete. Thank you for your patience. Sincerely, Punit Shah Director of Partner Services punit@goliathventuresinc.com He attaches his photo, social links, and a confidentiality warning forbidding sharing. The promise of a mass update “once something concrete” is repeated like a mantra. But concrete never comes. No MSB filing proof. No wallet audit. No regulator statement. Just patience—again. Punit positions himself as one of the victims—“owed money too,” “pushing for payouts”—yet he openly admits he has no timeline and no authority to fix it. These emails aren’t information. They’re sedation. A way to keep the farm calm while the real storm builds. THE THREE LAWSUITS THAT CHANGE EVERYTHING Three separate complaints have landed in Florida’s Seventeenth Judicial Circuit, Broward County—all in the same courthouse, all under Florida law, all venue-locked to Broward by the JVAs themselves. Law360 reported on 11 February 2026 that the combined claimed exposure is nearly $55 million. These are not market-loss complaints. They are contract enforcement actions demanding Goliath honor its written guarantee: principal returned “fully… without diminution or impairment… absolute and binding” (§3.6), no exceptions. - TwentyWon Ventures LLC v. Goliath Ventures Inc. (CACE-26-001290, Division 02, filed 23 January 2026) TwentyWon, a Florida LLC, invested substantial funds into liquidity pools. The JVA promised 5–7 business day withdrawals (§8.1), ownership retention (§6.5), and absolute principal return (§3.6). Goliath refused. Damages exceed $50,000. - Gregory Garrett Wilson v. Goliath Ventures Inc. (CACE-26-002371, Division 12, filed 10 February 2026) Wilson contributed at least $5,815,000 from June 2025. He requested $3 million partial withdrawal on 13 October 2025—COO confirmed valid, no payment. Full demand on 24 December 2025—confirmed valid, no payment. Goliath emailed 5 January 2026 confirming at least $6.8 million owed (actual higher). Filing states over $8,743,763.65 due. Damages exceed $50,000. - John D. Euliano (Trustee) and Brevard Nursing Academy, LLC v. Goliath Ventures Inc. (CACE-26-002331, Division 18, filed 10 February 2026) Two JVAs plus Exit Agreements. Distributions stopped September–October 2025 due to “mismanagement” by Christopher Delgado. Exit paperwork submitted; Goliath confirmed balances ($656,231.38 Trust, $235,202.50 BNA) and promised 7–10 day payouts. Nothing delivered. Damages exceed $50,000 per plaintiff.

  4. Another "Goliath Ventures Inc" Email, Same Problem: Why the MSB Excuse Doesn’t Explain Missing Money

    Another "Goliath Ventures Inc" Email, Same Problem: Why the MSB Excuse Doesn’t Explain Missing Money

    The last few weeks haven’t been loud. They’ve been heavy. My inbox hasn’t been filling with speculation or curiosity — it’s been filling with confessions. People admitting they haven’t been paid since October, November, and December. People saying they stayed quiet because they wanted to believe this would resolve itself. People who were told to wait just a little longer, right up until “the end of January.” The email is attributed to Eric Clayman, a Florida-based defence attorney listed as external corporate counsel for Goliath Ventures Inc. His name has appeared before in connection with the company, and the message was presented as a formal legal update. That matters — because attaching a lawyer’s name to an email like this is meant to create credibility, calm nerves, and slow questions. What it does not do is prove that funds exist, explain where investor money is, or justify why payments stopped months ago. And right as more investors finally started comparing notes, sharing documents, and realising they were all being told the same rotating story, another email arrived. This one came dressed up as a “New Company Update Message Received – Outstanding Exits & Distributions.” It carried a lawyer’s name. It sounded calm. It sounded official. And it said almost nothing of substance. THE EMAIL THAT CHANGES NOTHING This wasn’t a normal company update. It wasn’t openly published like earlier newsletters. It arrived as a gated document, restricted in how it could be accessed and shared. That alone matters. The timing matters even more. When people act alone, silence protects the company. When people talk to each other, pressure builds. These kinds of emails don’t appear to inform — they appear to slow momentum. What the email does is repeat a familiar refrain: banking issues, MSB applications, compliance delays. What it does not do is answer the questions investors have been asking for months. THE MSB EXCUSE UNDER THE MICROSCOPE An MSB application does not freeze money. It does not prohibit distributions. It does not override contracts. And it does not explain why some people were paid while most were not. MSBs handle large transaction volumes every day. Capacity is not the issue. If money cannot be paid now, the real question is not when MSB approval arrives — it is where the money currently is. That question is never answered. THE DECEMBER PROMISE THAT NEVER ARRIVED In December, Goliath sent an official newsletter stating that October catch-ups would be paid, November payouts would be included, and normal payment cadence would resume. Many investors are still waiting. That leaves us with an uncomfortable contradiction: an audit claiming over 115% coverage, a newsletter promising full catch-up, a lawyer citing MSB delays, and investors unpaid for months. All of these statements cannot be true at the same time. SELECTIVE PAYOUTS AND SILENCE As more people come forward, another pattern becomes impossible to ignore. Some people were paid. Not because of exit order or contract timing, but because of proximity, influence, or the ability to cause problems. Selective payouts are not a sign of stability. They are triage — deciding who to calm and who to stall. That is not how legitimate investment operations function. WHY COMING FORWARD NOW MATTERS Investigations don’t move on rumours or reassurance emails. They move on evidence. Contracts. Proof of payment. Wallet transactions. Messages. Timelines. Names. For months, people waited individually. That protected th Buy Me a Coffee I’m on @buymeacoffee. If you like my work, you can buy me a coffee and share your thoughts. Support the show

  5. The Floodgates Have Opened — The Pink Flamingo Moment in the Goliath Ventures Collapse

    20 JAN

    The Floodgates Have Opened — The Pink Flamingo Moment in the Goliath Ventures Collapse

    The last few weeks have been different. Not louder, not more dramatic — just heavier. My inbox has shifted from casual questions to detailed confessions. People who stayed silent for months are now reaching out, often late at night, often shaken, finally realising that what they were promised is not coming back. The floodgates didn’t burst all at once. They cracked. And now the water is rushing through. THE SILENCE BEFORE THE BREAK For months, investors were told to wait. Banking delays. Audits. MSB approvals. The same phrases repeated until they lost all meaning. People clung to hope because hope was easier than accepting that trusted friends, sponsors, and “directors” may have played a role in what was happening. Silence became a coping mechanism. If you didn’t ask too many questions, maybe the payments would resume. THE INTRODUCERS What stands out now is how many people entered Goliath through personal relationships. Family friends. Romantic partners. Long-time acquaintances. Sponsors weren’t strangers — they were people you trusted enough to hand over life-changing sums of money. Many of those same names have since vanished from the website, scrubbed from public association, quietly stepping away while investors were left exposed. THE MOVING GOALPOSTS The stories follow a familiar pattern. Initial investments at manageable levels. Promised percentages that sounded sustainable — until they weren’t. Minimums raised without warning. “Grandfathered” exceptions that never materialised. Accounts shifted between names. Percentages reduced. Exit requests acknowledged, then ignored. And always, the reassurance that this was temporary. THE MSB EXCUSE When payouts stopped completely, a new phrase entered the conversation: MSB. For many investors, it was the first time they’d heard it. Questions were brushed off. “Google it.” “Legal can’t explain.” What should have been transparency became deflection. The excuse wasn’t designed to inform — it was designed to stall. THE SELECTIVE PAYOUTS As most people waited, a few quietly got paid. Not because of contracts, but because of proximity, influence, or silence. This is where hope turns to anger. When one person gets their principal back while others are told to be patient, the illusion of fairness collapses. Selective payouts are not a sign of stability. They are a sign of triage. THE ANONYMITY PROBLEM Almost everyone asks the same thing: can this stay private? I understand the fear. But anonymity without action only protects the people who caused the damage. Investigators don’t act on feelings or fragments. They act on paper trails. Contracts. Transfers. Messages. Timelines. Silence doesn’t reduce harm — it concentrates it. THE HUMAN COST Behind every email is a family argument, a relationship strained, a retirement plan quietly erased. These are not reckless gamblers. They are ordinary people who trusted someone they knew. The shame keeps them quiet longer than it should. And that delay is exactly what allows these schemes to keep breathing. WHY THIS MOMENT MATTERS This is the point where outcomes are decided. Not by promises, but by evidence. Not by waiting, but by documenting what actually happened. The floodgates are open now because too many people are seeing the same pattern at the same time. Once you see it, you can’t unsee it. Buy Me a Coffee I’m on @buymeacoffee.

  6. Hyper-Compound Illusions: How GOLIATH VENTURES INC Leaves Investors Watching Dashboards Not Payments

    Hyper-Compound Illusions: How GOLIATH VENTURES INC Leaves Investors Watching Dashboards Not Payments

    If your balance is growing but you can’t withdraw a cent, you don’t have an investment — you have a story being told to you on a screen. That’s where this investigation begins. For months, investors were promised regular distributions. When payments slowed or stopped, they were told delays were temporary. While money failed to arrive, dashboards continued to update, balances continued to rise, and investors were encouraged to wait just a little longer. Many did, because the system was designed to make waiting feel rational. I’ve been warning about Goliath Ventures since September. What you’re about to see is what happens when patience runs out and evidence replaces hope. THE DASHBOARD I WAS GIVEN ACCESS TO An investor, whose identity is protected, handed over full backend access to his investor account portal. Not screenshots. Not summaries. Direct access to what investors themselves see when they log in. Inside the portal, everything looks legitimate at first glance. Contracts. Identity documents. Assigned partners. Contribution records. Distribution entries. Month after month marked as “hyper-compounded.” It tells a complete story — but only if you don’t try to leave. What’s missing is control. There is no self-service withdrawal function. No crypto transfer button. No bank initiation. Every attempt to exit must go through a human gatekeeper. That design choice matters when money stops flowing. WHEN HYPER-COMPOUNDING REPLACES PAYOUTS Hyper-compounding is presented as growth. In reality, it becomes a holding pattern. Even after withdrawals fail, balances continue to rise on-screen. The message is subtle but powerful: waiting feels safer than acting. But numbers you can’t access aren’t money. Liquidity is money. When balances grow while exits are blocked, hyper-compounding stops being a strategy and becomes a retention mechanism. THE WITHDRAWAL THAT CHANGED EVERYTHING The investor formally requested a withdrawal under the terms of the contract. That contract, which every investor signs, states that withdrawal requests should be processed within a defined window of five to seven business days, with delays allowed only under limited and specific circumstances. In this case, that window passed. No qualifying exception was cited. No funds were returned. At that point, this stopped being about technical delays or explanations. It became non-performance under a written agreement. Despite that, the account continued to show balance growth. Hyper-compounding entries kept appearing while the withdrawal remained unresolved. That’s not neutral accounting. It’s the appearance of progress without delivery. WHAT THIS PATTERN TELLS US This is not an isolated experience. Across multiple investors, the same pattern repeats. Withdrawals require permission, not execution. Timelines shift. Some people are paid while others stall. Communication tightens. Balances keep growing while access disappears. No single data point proves fraud. Patterns do. And once you see the pattern from inside the portal, it’s impossible to unsee. WHY THIS MATTERS NOW This investigation isn’t about theory or hindsight. It’s about what investors were shown versus what actually happened. It’s about contracts, timelines, and systems that continue to display growth while failing to meet their own obligations. If you’re still staring at a dashboard and waiting for reassurance, understand this: waiting doesn’t improve your position. Delay only benefits the people holding your money.

  7. Robert Rolls and Afirmo NZ Ltd: An Unsolicited Email, Two Domains, and Unanswered Questions

    Robert Rolls and Afirmo NZ Ltd: An Unsolicited Email, Two Domains, and Unanswered Questions

    On 12 December 2025 at 8:13 PM, I received an unsolicited commercial email from Robert Rolls, identifying himself as Founder and Chief Executive of Afirmo NZ Ltd. I had no prior relationship with him or the company, had not requested contact, and had not consented to receive marketing of any kind. THE EMAIL ARRIVES The message was promotional and lacked an unsubscribe mechanism. Under New Zealand law, a single unsolicited commercial email can be unlawful if it does not meet basic requirements around consent, sender identification, and opt-out. That omission mattered, and it prompted a closer look. THE DOMAIN THAT DIDN’T MATCH The email did not come from afirmo.com, the company’s established domain. It was sent from robertr@winafirmo.com, a domain registered just weeks earlier and not referenced anywhere on Afirmo’s official website. When accessed, that domain redirected to an unrelated third-party site with no visible connection to accounting or tax services. Domain provenance matters, especially in regulated environments. TECHNICAL CHECKS A WHOIS and DNS review showed the two domains were registered, hosted, and configured independently. The established domain dates back to 2017; the newer domain was registered in late September 2025. These differences don’t prove misconduct on their own, but they are relevant to questions of sender identification and traceability. SEEKING CLARITY Before publishing anything, I attempted to verify the situation and provide a right of reply. I phoned the publicly listed office number, called the mobile number associated with Mr Rolls, left voicemail messages, and sent written questions by email. One response arrived from the newer domain, asserting compliance and “deemed consent,” but it did not answer where my email address was sourced, why a separate domain was used, or why no unsubscribe was included. INDUSTRY CONTEXT In my reporting on electronic spam, I’ve repeatedly encountered a pattern where companies outsource cold outreach to third-party lead generators and use secondary domains to protect the reputation of their primary brand. When issues arise, responsibility still sits with the company whose services are being promoted. THE LEGAL CONTEXT Even where “deemed consent” is claimed, New Zealand law still requires a functional unsubscribe mechanism. The facts here are simple and observable: the message was unsolicited, the domain was not publicly associated with the company, and no opt-out was provided. REFERRAL TO REGULATORS Given the lack of resolution, I referred the matter to the Department of Internal Affairs, providing the original email, full headers, and a timeline of correspondence. The referral itself is now a matter of record. ON THE RECORD This investigation documents verifiable facts and unanswered questions. It does not allege fraud or criminality. If clarification is provided on the record—about the domain used, the source of my email address, or the absence of an unsubscribe—it will be published in full. Buy Me a Coffee I’m on @buymeacoffee.

  8. The Origins of GOLIATH VENTURES INC: How Proximity Replaced Proof as Millions Were Raised

    1 JAN

    The Origins of GOLIATH VENTURES INC: How Proximity Replaced Proof as Millions Were Raised

    This investigation looks at what existed before Goliath Ventures Inc ever collapsed — before missed payouts, before silence, before the excuses. It examines how trust was established, how credibility was borrowed, and how millions were raised long before anything verifiable was ever built. This is not a hindsight critique. It’s a reconstruction of origins. HOW TO REPORT GOLIATH VENTURES INC dehek.com/general/scam-fraud-investigations/how-to-report-goliath-ventures-inc-and-take-action-if-youve-lost-money/ THE FOUNDATION BEFORE THE MONEY Goliath Ventures did not begin with a functioning product, a proven trading operation, or verifiable revenue. What it began with was proximity — to people, to narratives, to perceived success. Introductions mattered more than evidence. Associations mattered more than documentation. Early confidence replaced early proof. From the outset, there were ambitious claims about crypto mining, liquidity pools, and sophisticated strategies. Yet there is no clear record of mining ever being operational, no evidence of mined bitcoin sold to the market, and no independently verifiable proof that any promised strategy was producing external revenue. That distinction matters. THE SHIFT IN THE STORY As time went on, the narrative evolved. Bitcoin mining faded into the background. Liquidity provision became the new explanation. The language grew more technical, more abstract, and harder for the average investor to challenge. Contracts referenced specific mechanisms, but public explanations rarely matched how those mechanisms actually work. At the same time, fixed rates of return were offered — monthly, quarterly, yearly. That is not how legitimate mining or liquidity provision typically operates. Profit-sharing is variable. Risk is explicit. Guarantees are rare. BORROWED CREDIBILITY What did work was trust by association. People trusted people who trusted other people. Social proof traveled faster than verification. Questions were softened by familiarity. Skepticism was reframed as negativity. The absence of proof was masked by confidence and repetition. In environments like this, belief spreads faster than facts. WHEN PAYMENTS STOPPED Once payouts became delayed, then missed entirely, the tone changed. Communication shifted. Responsibility blurred. Investors were told to be patient. Explanations multiplied, but clarity did not. Crucially, despite repeated claims that investments were “fully insured,” there has been no evidence presented that any insurance claim was ever filed to cover missed payouts — raising serious questions about whether such insurance ever existed in the first place. INTENT, FAILURE, AND ACCOUNTABILITY Some argue that if Goliath began with legitimate intent, then this is simply a failed business, not a crime. That question matters legally. But intent is not proven by good storytelling — it’s proven by actions, records, and outcomes. A project that never gets off the ground, never produces verifiable external revenue, and yet consistently offers fixed returns while raising new funds does not automatically become legitimate simply because failure is claimed after the fact. This investigation does not declare guilt. It documents what can — and cannot — be shown. And what’s missing is just as important as what’s claimed.
