SEC has issued a warning against Dragon One Network Trends Corporation, with business address indicated to be in 29 J. Rizal Street, Davao City. The warning was issued April 7,2016 in Mandaluyong City.
This company has been identified by the Securities and Exchange Commission as having the markings of a potential scam. How come? This is because Dragon One is alleged to take in investments from its members instead of doing just “wholesale of food, beverages, and tobacco”, which is the only business activity they are allowed to do based on their BIR license.
See Dragon One BIR Certificate of Registration below and notice the kind of business they are permitted to operate. It does not mention that this company can engage in money-taking activity for investment. Only “WHOLESALE of food, beverages, and tobacco”.
See Dragon One Network Trends Corporation SEC Certification – They are registered in SEC but this company is NOT ALLOWED TO SOLICIT INVESTMENTS from the public. Dragon One does not have secondary license to engage and to solicit investment.
Here in iSensey, we also searched the database of SEC online, and it it true the company business name is SEC-registered but then again, no secondary license for accepting funds for investment from the public.
POTENTIAL INVESTMENT SCAM
The front of Dragon One is the same as legit networking or MLM companies wherein there are products being offered and sold to members. BUT the alleged bigger picture is that members will come in, join Dragon One by availing a certain package with a promised interest and ROI after a set number of months. Mag-invest kasi may high interest rate kang makukuha.
The supposed amount of investment is as low as P1,800 to P360,000. The higher the package a member avail, the higher the promised interest rate or ‘compensation’. Dragon One allegedly issues postdated checks to investors, these checks represents their capital and profit for encashment after a certain number of weeks / months.
Again, Dragon One Network Trend has a SEC certification but it is NOT for investment taking activities.
“Investors are enticed to join the company because of the profits they will get when all the checks are encashed in 60 days.” – SEC Warning on this company based in Davao
