Sensing immense opportunities of cheating millions of people nefarious scam Dracula such as Nuno Jorge Da Cruz Sebastiao alias Jorge Sebastiao is leading a massive scam cartel, with the notorious agenda of cheating millions of people in Dubai and rest of the United Arab Emirates as well as other countries in the Middle East. It may be mentioned here that, Jorge Sebastiao has already established an office of a fraudulent company named EcoX in Dubai under the garb of event management company, although members of EcoX including Jorge Sebastiao are active member of a scam cartel named Bank Bene Merenti and YEM Foundation which sells bogus YEM coin. A Jordanian national named Saif Al Nazi (known as DJ Saif) is a partner in EcoX. Another individual named Dan Settgast is also one of the kingpins of this racket.

It may be mentioned here that, His Royal Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of the Executive Council is enthusiastic about the outcome of Dubai Metaverse Assembly, a new global event, which is scheduled to take place during the end of September 2022. According to media reports, this global event aims to discuss how to make the most of metaverse’s promising opportunities to serve the mankind.

HRH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum said that the forum represents a global incubator for future metaverse makers.

“Metaverse is a promising digital world. We aim to harness this technology to enhance the quality of life in the UAE and across the globe”, HRH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed said. He highlighted that Dubai Metaverse Assembly embodies the vision of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, for the emirate to become a global hub for innovation and futuristic transformations and a key driver for digital and knowledge-based economies around the world.

The Dubai Metaverse Strategy is the first initiative of the higher committee formed under the directives of the Crown Prince during the fifth meeting of the Dubai Council in May 2022.

The committee, chaired by HRH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, aims to oversee all future technological developments in Dubai’s digital economy and ensure that Dubai’s legislative and legal framework keeps up with the rapid developments of the digital economy and tremendous technological progress.

“We want Dubai to lead globally in adopting the technology of the future, understanding its developments, harnessing its potential, and driving change”, HRH Sheikh Hamdan said.

While Dubai Metaverse Assembly is a brilliant initiative of HRH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed, key policymakers in the United Arab Emirates and the intelligence agencies are not aware of the fact that several scammers and scam cartels are already attempting to enter into UAE with fake crypto and so-called rainbowcurrency Ponzi schemes.

According to credible source, Nuno Jorge Da Cruz Sebastiao alias Jorge Sebastiao is one of the kingpins of massive scam cartel named Bank Bene Merenti that sells fake crypto named YEM coin to hundreds and thousands of people around the world, especially African and Asian nations. Bank Bene Merenti claims its fraudulent ‘YEM coin’ is “Rainbowcurrency”, an alternative name of Crypto. In our previous reports we have reported in details how this dangerous scam cartel, by making false claim of being an affiliated of the Bank of Japan is robbing-off hundreds of millions of dollars through fake YEM crypto by fooling people in Uganda, Nigeria, Ghana, Burkina Faso, Niger, Gabon, Zimbabwe, Gabon, Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, the Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, LAO PDR, Myanmar, Malaysia, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Oman, Bahrain, Syria, Libya, Iran, Iraq, Egypt, and the United Arab Emirates.

Media reports claim, Bank Bene Merenti has so far collected more than US$2.14 trillion by fooling people who lack adequate knowledge inter-based scam cartels in the world of crypto. These reports said, the YEM coin crypto which is sold by Bank Bene Meneti and few of its co-gangs is non-existent and people putting money into this fraudulent venture would definitely lose everything.

The so-called Bank Bene Merenti shows a market cap of its YEM (Your Everyday Money) equivalent to US$ 2.14 trillion and claims to be a project of the Bank of Japan. Under Japanese and international laws, such claims are tantamount to serious criminal acts.

It may be mentioned further that there is no country or sovereign entity in the world named ‘Bene Merenti’, except for a foundation named ‘Sovereign Order Bene Merenti’, which has no connections or links with the Bank Bene Merenti scam cartel or its bogus YEM coin. ‘Sovereign Order Bene Merenti’ is an association or foundation registered on December 29, 2005 in Riga, Latvia. Its registration number is 40008097119. Its postal address is Lielirbes iela 6 – 92, Rīga, LV-1046 and Certificate of Registration number is B011805, dated July 30, 2009.

According to Latvian authorities, ‘Sovereign Order Bene Merenti’ organization does not exist since 2019.

Dan Settgast and Jorge Sebastiao are two of the kingpins of the scam cartel named Bank Bene Merenti, which has been robbing-off hundreds of millions of dollars through fake YEM crypto by fooling people through false claims and well-orchestrated propaganda. This scam racket runs under a Nevada-based non-profit named ‘YEM Foundation’. By pretending as an affiliate of the Bank of Japan, this scam cartel is mainly cheating people from Uganda, Ghana, Gabon, Tanzania, Nigeria, Kenya, Gambia, Ethiopia, Congo, Sudan, Angola, Burkina Faso, Mozambique, Cameron, Madagascar, Mali, Malawi, Senegal, Chad, Somalia, Zimbabwe, Rwanda, Guinea, Benin, Burundi, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Sierra Leone, Togo, Central African Republic, Liberia, Mauritania, Eritrea, Botswana, Lesotho, Guinea-Bissau, Mauritius, Eswatini, Djibouti, Comoros, Cape Verde, Seychelles, as well as South Asian countries such as Bangladesh, India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.

Company Number: E0553072017-8. Native Company Number” E0553072017-8. YEM Foundation does not have its own office in the US. Instead it uses a virtual office address provided by a company named PHYSICALADDRESS.COM.

Our investigative reporter in the US has already checked every detail of the YEM Foundation, and found that the YEM coin and Bank Bene Merenti scam cartel is using this US non-profit as a shield of their criminal activities. It is also learnt from credible source that hundreds of millions of cheat-fund of Bank Bene Merenti, YEM coin, Dan Settgast, Jorge Sebastiao and other members of YEM Foundation scam ring is secretly deposited in various offshore accounts with the help of the Nevada-based company that provides virtual office address (304 S JONES BLVD, Las Vegas, NV, 89107) to this cartel.
