‘Killers having lunch’: The real life Wolves of Wall Street

Part 6

High wages and company perks

Clients who were thought to have deep pockets were passed to “retention agents” – more aggressive salespeople who would try to convince them to deposit sums up to $100,000.

The really good salespeople would be sent to work in Israel,” Haji said.

Withdrawal requests were referred on to another team, he claimed, and in his experience many were refused.

Despite high wages and company perks such as a trip to South Africa, Haji left Linkopia after three months.

I don’t believe the Mauritian authorities know what is going on,” he said. “They think Linkopia is just an IT company.

A spokesman for Linkopia said: “Linkopia (Mauritius) Ltd is not familiar with, and does not advocate any … questionable practices or activities.

The Bureau spoke to another whistleblower, David, who says the big money “retention” work was done by Herzog’s other company Yukom. He says he worked on sales for Yukom, and estimated that in 2015 BinaryBook and another unnamed binary options website got people to invest $5 to $7 million a month.

One month (…) a single salesman brought in more than $1 million,” David told the Bureau.

Herzog’s lawyer denied the claims. He said Yukom’s monthly income was “not close to 10%” of the sum claimed by the insider and that other companies around the world provided services to BinaryBook in competition with Yukom.

Responsibility for day-to-day running of Yukom lies with its CEO, an Israeli woman named Lee Elbaz who joined the company in May 2014.

While Lee tries to encourage people to think Yukom is one big family, she is feared,” David said. “She stays 12-16 hours a day in the office.

Israel Shipped in Holidaymakers – Greece Shipped Them Out Again

KernowDamo   We'll fight them on the beaches took on new meaning as an Israeli cruise ship got sent packing in the latest Greek port stand-off!   Earlier this week, the Aegean island of Syros became an unexpected front line in the global movement against Israel’s war on Gaza. A cruise ship, the Crown Iris, carrying approximately 1,600 Israeli tourists, approached the island’s main port expecting a typical summer welcome. Instead, hundreds of Greek islanders lined the waterfront with banners, Palestinian flags, and chants of defiance. “Stop the Genocide” echoed across the harbour as a human blockade formed, preventing passengers from disembarking. After hours of tense standoff, the ship was forced to change course and head toward Cyprus instead, its tourists trapped aboard as unwilling symbols of growing European outrage against Israel’s military campaign. This was no spontaneous protest, it was an organised act of solidarity, a statement that business-as-usual tourism, even on...
