VXGateway Inc. was dissolved on September 26th 2016.
VXGateway Ltd, the company registered at UK Companies House, is still ACTIVE.
VX Corp Ltd was dissolved on 20th April 2015.
All of these companies are/were registered to Celia Dunlop.
VX Gateway Ltd list their business as:
'Agents involved in the sale of machinery, industrial equipment, ships and aircraft (46140)
Wholesale of petroleum and petroleum products (46711)
Other information technology and computed service activities (62090)'
They are registered in Panama:
Suite 11616 APDO 0832-1236, World Trade Centre, Panama City, Panama.
'APDO' in Spanish means PO BOX.
They have between 1 and 10 employees.
The company is listed as 'sociedad anonima' which means 'Anonymous society'.
The founder is:
Timothy Alan MacKay, who lives in Texas and has no photo on his Linked-in profile.
The treasurer and secretary is Celia Eileen Jean Dunlop, who has no photo on her profile:
who has also registered a VX company in Chelmsford England:
http://www.checkcompany.co.uk/company/07514659/VX-GATEWAY-LIMITED
The directors are listed as:
Timothy Alan MacKay
Celia Eileen Jean Dunlop
Aura Arias
There is also a Linked-In profile for a 'Yon Zeimet' who claims to be the 'SEO' of VX GATEWAY.
The photo is just a stock photo and is used in other web pages.
But he also has a Facebook page that was started on 30th May 2012.
If VX GATEWAY were a professional run company, why haven't they got proper 'Linked-In' profiles and genuine pictures?
There is no need for a legitimate company to hide behind fake profiles and cartoon photos.
These are the ALEXA rankings for VX GATEWAY.
35% of ALL it's traffic comes from My Advertising Pays.
No other merchants are listed.
What other customers do they have?
These are their contact details:
An address they share with 26 other businesses!
and if you google the number they give: 786-288-3366
You get FLORIDA!
This is their Facebook page:
It was launched in May 2013 and has since been deserted.
Don't bother commenting or asking for help, NOBODY'S THERE!

IDENTICAL.
To conclude:
VX GATEWAY is REGISTERED in Panama and operates out of a PO BOX.
It's company is listed as an ANONYMOUS SOCIETY.
It has NO photographs of it's directors or owners.
It lists its employees as between 1 and 10 and I've already listed FOUR of them here.
This is a company with owners and directors you can't see,
a mailing address in HOUSTON it shares with 26 others,
a phone number in FLORIDA, no listed email address, no social media contact...and a spate of offices that it shares with My Advertising Pays!
Do you REALLY trust this company to handle hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of MAPS transactions?

I've highlighted the 'biduwin' connection because an interesting piece of info has just surfaced regarding this and the VX GATEWAY liquidation:
'Hello Mapper,

14th October 2016:
VXGateway Inc. was Liquidated on 26th September 2016
VX GATEWAY Ltd is still listed as Active at Companies House UK.
The Liquidation notice on its page says INC, not Ltd:
15th October 2016.
My opinion is that VXGateway Inc/Ltd and Corp are all the same company and are
closely linked with My Advertising Pays, which is currently not working, and not paying.
We still have no Official details of the supposed Liquidation of VXGATEWAY INC. and the company is still listed as active under VXGATEWAY Ltd.
Celia Dunlop is listed on every 'VXGATEWAY' company document.
7th January 2017
My Advertising Pays began court proceedings against VX Gateway in December 2016 alleging they stole $60 million.
VX Gateway say that GPN Data have stolen it and won't return it.
My Advertising Pays is now closed and has relaunched as 'The Advert Platform'.
The Advert Platform is now using GPN Data as it's new payment processor.
VX Gateway describes itself as:
VX Gateway inc('VX') Cloud Payment Framework - enables countries and governments to take control of Tax collection, ongoing remittances, and incoming revenue streams including movements of money from treasury, government departments, financial institution, commerce and citizens...'
So if big government departments were using VX Gateway and had, by conclusion, lost Taxpayers vast sums of money, you'd have thought that SOMEWHERE, there would be reference to it? The media would have jumped on this story straight away, surely?
And yet, not only has there been ZERO attention to it, VX Gateway have also posted a notice on their site proclaiming that the cut off date for claims is February 20th 2017.
This is VX Gateways response to the lawsuit brought by My Advertising Pays:
https://www.vxgateway.com/TrusteeUpdate122017.pdf
19th May 2017
The latest Court Information:
'Hello everyone,
We have an update on the Southern District of Texas, Federal case, against VX Gateway. The judge in that case has made the decision to adhere to the forum selection clause in the contract until a Panamanian court invalidates that contract all together.
In essence, our move at this point is to file a secondary lawsuit in Panama and have the Panamanian courts determine the validity of the contract between MAP and VX, as well as the validity of the forum selection clause.
While we believe that our arguments in the US case were sound enough to side-step and invalidate the forum selection clause, we also believe and understand that overturning a clause that explicitly states that the matter must be brought in a Panamanian court is a tall task for any sitting judge.
Fortunately, this order will inevitably make our case that much stronger as it is our lawyers determination that the clause is completely and utterly invalid under Panamanian law. Moreover, once the clause (and contract) is invalidated under Panamanian law, we will have the opportunity to re-initiate the case in Texas without any issue of the forum selection clause.
All in all, it is an unfortunate delay, however, because we are quick to the plate and plan to immediately take this action in Panama, we believe that it won’t be an unduly burdensome exercise. Thankfully, the courts in Panama are quite a bit quicker on decision-making than our courts in the US, so we look forward to moving this issue along with absolute haste. The above being said, we anticipate that our attorneys will allow us to FINALLY reveal the biggest update that we have coming in this matter and finally pull the curtain back on what moves we have been making in preparation for this decision by the courts in the US.
As always, if there are any questions at all regarding this matter please don’t hesitate to reach out to us and we plan on releasing a second update next week after we have a meeting our legal counsel around the world to determine the proper moves to make.

TRUSTEE UPDATE 12 JUNE 2017US District Court Case Dismissed
The case filed in the US District Court in Houston, Texas by MyAdvertisingPays (MAP) Limited (“MAP”) and Michael Deese against VX Gateway has been dismissed.
As we had predicted in an earlier Trustee Update, the Court ruled that disputes relating to the service agreement between VX Gateway Inc., in dissolution (“VX Gateway”) and MAP, must be heard in Panama; it specifically recognized Panama jurisdiction and the venue selection clause requiring such disputes to be decided by arbitration in Panama.
Many have been left wondering why MAP pursued a frivolous case in the US? Possibly it was because MAP had no credible or complete financial records and thus could not substantiate a claim to VX Gateway in the dissolution claims procedure; in this regard, it should be pointed out that although invited to do so, MAP never filed a claim in the dissolution. Let's state that again: MAP intentionally failed to file a claim (for itself or its members) in the dissolution proceeding for what it contended was $60 million; why?.
Similarly, lacking such financial records, MAP may not have been physically able to set forth a viable claim to an Arbitrator in Panama as required by the service agreement. Or perhaps, as we have said in an earlier Trustee Update, the case was filed by MAP in the US simply to buy time? Time to start a new company, or time to avoid facing authorities perhaps?
Our Legal Counsel in Panama feels that the burden of proof is higher in Panama for arbitration than in the US. In arbitration in Panama MAP will be required to support any claim with its own internal audited financial statements. They will not be able to rely on the financial records of third parties, which they have done so far.
The most recent “audit” put forth by MAP was not an audit made in the manner that will be required in such arbitration. Describing it as an audit in that sense of the term is deceptive and misleading. While it purported to be a “top-to-bottom study of the VX draws, and finally gross receipts to MAP”, it completely failed to take into account “withdraws and disbursements to MAP members, VX draws, and finally gross receipts to MAP”.
In fact, MAP’s auditor, Alpha Performance Verification Services, in its so-called “audit”, did nothing more than use Excel to summarize the financial statements of the processors. It excluded (omitted) any MAP financial transactions, processor fees or VX Gateway fees. Common sense and basic accounting tells us that, if the processor financial statements were incomplete or erroneous, the “audit” would likewise be incomplete or erroneous. This is commonly described as “garbage in ...garbage out”. Surely congratulations are in order for Alpha Performance Verification Services' fine work (not).
VX Gateway stands ready to participate in arbitration in Panama. We have had a complete and accurate audit conducted by CSB. Review of the CSB audit will leave no doubt that the lawsuit in Houston was specious and possibly intended by MAP or its legal counsel to mislead its members and the public.
The $60 million Was Never Stolen or Missing
While the case in the US was dismissed for improper venue and lack of the jurisdiction, the claims made in the case by MAP had no merits. The $60 million was never stolen. It is not even missing; it can be found in the CSB audit without difficulty.
MAP’s claim that these funds are “missing” or “stolen” is clearly erroneous. MAP admits it arrived at the $60 million dollar amount by simply deducting the dollar amount of “credit card sales” from “total sales”, that is, by using simple math as follows:
However, as is obvious to anyone familiar with the facts, sales were made not just via credit card transactions but also by payments directly from VXLOOP Accounts that were funded directly by customers from their bank accounts. The simple correct math then is:
Interestingly, as reflected in the CSB audit on file as part of the discovery provided by VX Gateway, the dollar amount of VXLOOP Account Sales, that is, the entry that is missing in MAP's math, almost exactly matches the amount MAP claims as “missing” or “stolen” (subject to fees and final audit).
Was this omission a simple mistake by MAP or deliberate deception? MAP was well aware of the substantial amount of sales paid by VXLOOP Account balances, as opposed to just the sales paid by card. This information was available in real time at the VX Gateway merchant back office to which MAP had 24/7 access prior to its breach of the contract. No company whose existence is based upon sales would simply ignore sales figures. MAP must be presumed to have made and kept copies of such records covering total sales. Put simply, the CSB Audit indicates that there is not and never was a missing $60 million.
Anyone can file a lawsuit in the USA; merely filing lawsuit is not evidence of the legality of the plaintiff’s business, nor evidence of an illegal act, nor proof of the merits of the case filed. A lawsuit is simply one party's claim against another party; it is just a claim, nothing more. All it takes to file a lawsuit is to be able to pay the legal fees.
A Formal Complaint Against GPN Data Has Been Made to the Mauritius Financial Services Commission
Now that the distraction of the frivolous US lawsuit is behind us, we have submitted a formal complaint against GPN Data to the Mauritius Financial Services Commission.
VX Gateway's complaint can be summarized as follows:
As we have consistently stated, when and if money is received from GPN Data, VX Gateway will then pass through whatever share is then due to each of the respective entities or parties.
VX Gateway in dissolution prepared this statement based on the information available to it, including information derived from public sources that have not been independently verified.

VX Gateway used to be the Payment Processor for 'Rocket Cash Cycler'.
'Rocket Cash Cycler' was one of the schemes that Mike Deese from My Advertising Pays used to belong to:
Rocket Cash Cycler was another PONZI scam.
VX Gateway were also the Payment Processor to Ultimate Cycler:
...another PONZI Scam.

VXGateway is a Scam company trying to operate as a online wallet similar to PayPal. They process their transactions through PayToo (www.paytoo.com)- VXGateway have just built a front end interface- but PayToo does all the processing and has the technology.

Hi Tara
ReplyDeleteI just read your blog and was shocked. I've been trying to withrow my money from both VX Gateway and My advertising pays. Both have been answering me with stupidly and never transfer the remaining balance which was not a small amount.
Could you please advise me of what do I need to do!
I will appreciate if you could drop me an email on:

Hello Svetlana. You can apply for a Chargeback (see my Chargeback page) and you must report them to the Securities and Exchange Commission.

DeleteHi Tara.Hello Tarra,
ReplyDeleteI hope you are well.
I tried to get my money back from MAP, but my bank said they did not have enough information and evidence to do so.
1.They are interested in how to contact the English MAP team asking for addresses, phones, names, emails ..
and how can I prove that Act 75 is just about that?
I really need your help.Thanks!
Hi Anon, Chargebacks have had limited success because MAP/TAP are still trading, so the only way to get your money back is to REPORT My Advertising Pays to the Securities and Exchange Commission:
