The website of a company nowadays is not only its face, but also a way of contacting the target audience. It is there that the organization can tell about the product, prices, its achievements, ways of communication and so on.

The website of the group of companies is https://www.conectid.com/.

Very vague description of activities, there is no breakdown of which company is responsible for what and no real facts.

The site is incomplete, which would not be allowed by any small-mal decent business, let alone an international large company.

There are no ways to contact the company.

The site https://conectid.tech/ greets us with a similar acidic design and motivational lettering.

They offer to register for detailed information, but it is unclear what exactly the user will get after registration. There are links to social networks, but there is no phone number to contact the company.

The site https://www.appliancebook.com/, made in the same color scheme, contains a lot more pages, as many as six, but to fill all of them, apparently, did not have the patience or money

FAXE is a registered trademark of a group of companies, but apparently it is not interesting not only for the clients, but also for the creators.

The contact page has more information, but the phone number listed has more digits than it should.

On the site http://www.cookingfactory.co.uk/ you can find out details by filling out a form, but what exactly to find out a user from the outside will not understand.

Also missing are contacts, company information and details for potential buyers.

The site https://www.onhardware.eu/ is already in a more relaxed design.

Usually companies are used to bragging about their achievements, certificates and won awards, but here we are simply informed about 5 design awards and 3 patents.

There are no photos of the works, the pictures must have been picked up on the Internet, as the disk phone is lost among other products of the company.

The same picture can be observed on the official Youtube account - no work of the organization, interviews with employees, some completed projects, just a few short videos.

To summarize:

1) Companies are not present at the address of registration, there are no photos of the office, and no information on how to get there.

2) Websites are not developed, respectively, the international group of companies does not have an IT specialist or funds to order a website from an agency.

3) There are no real photos of the company's products, completed projects and so on.

4) There is no information about employees, their number, vacancies.

5) Almost no contact information on the site, that is, the company is not interested in attracting new customers

Accordingly, we can conclude that economic activity is practically not conducted, clients are not attracted, and the sites are created "for a tick".

Let's take a closer look at the companies registered to Michalakis and use examples to see how to distinguish real businesses from "laundering offices".

1) Registration address and actual presence

Actual presence is one of the main factors of credibility of an organization and an indicator that business activities are being conducted.

Conectid Ltd, Ptg Technologies Ltd, C Squared, Simtelligence Technologies Ltd, Bluechain Ltd, Bit Reserve Ltd are registered at 20-22 Wenlock Road, London N1 7GU, United Kingdom

According to https://www.companieshousedata.co.uk/a/4683 there are 269 companies at this address.

You can use this address for only £79.99 per annum plus tax.

Prime Stream Ltd is registered at 128 City Road, London EC1V 2NX, United Kingdom

You can register your company at this address for £28 per annum + VAT.

The Fair And Correct Foundation Ltd, London, United Kingdom is registered at 71-75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, Wc2h 9jq

553 companies are at this address, costing £39 per annum

Only CONECTID LTD is registered in Google Map service, but instead of office photos and real examples of products there is a set of pictures and videos created by not the best designer.

There are also three products available from the company - engraving priced from £0.01 to £999.00, smart home appliances from £10 to £2500 and, whatever that means, an OLED 8K Fridge for £99,999. Photos of the marvelous TV and fridge hybrid are unfortunately not available to the general public.

Accordingly, it is easy to see that companies are not present at their addresses, for a nominal sum a nice UK address and phone number is registered.

Main biographical data

Born on February 9, 1985 in Nicosia, Republic of Cyprus.

Graduated from a local school.

Graduated from The University of Nicosia, with a degree in Law, after which he immediately left for the UK where, after a short stint working in a few small law firms, he became actively involved in investment start-ups.

He is a citizen of the Republic of Cyprus and the United Kingdom and a resident of Hong Kong.

Michalakis establishes warm relations with the heads of companies, gains trust, gets access to financial information and resources, and then carries out fraudulent actions behind the backs of his partners. If the latter begin to suspect something, threats and blackmail are used. The most courageous turned to the police, but it was also pointless. Due to the fact that Michalakis is a citizen of Great Britain and Cyprus, as well as a resident of Hong Kong, he easily moves between these countries, avoiding criminal prosecution.

Some of Michalakis' main machinations include the following:

1) The most immoral is considered Michalakis' involvement in the scandal related to the crypto exchange NEXO and the HelpKarma charity foundation. Starting in 2020, the world media reported that funds intended for sick children were withdrawn from the fund and used to build palaces and bribe politicians.

Back in 2019, Michalakis rubbed himself into the confidence of the NEXO management, he positioned himself as an experienced person in the field of cryptocurrencies and various funds. After gaining access to the financial processes of the organization, he conducted his fraudulent transactions with HelpKarma fund and withdrew funds through shell companies - Conectid Ltd, Ptg Technologies Ltd, Regal Health & Wellness Ltd, C Squared - Europe Ltd, Simtelligence Technologies Ltd, Bluechain Ltd , Appliance Book Ltd etc.

Notably, Michalakis registered his foundation The Fair And Correct Foundation Ltd in 2022, under which he will apparently continue to steal money from sick children.

2) Michalakis was also linked to a major cryptocurrency fraud in 2021. The criminal group he was a member of operated at least four investment platforms that lured their victims through advertisements on social media and search engines. Members of the criminal group posed as experienced intermediaries, contacting victims through a call center they created. The suspects used proprietary software and fake reports to show investment returns and motivate victims to invest even more.

3) In October 2020, the Hong Kong Financial Markets Supervisory Authority fined Goldman Sachs' Asian business $350 million for its involvement in the multi-billion dollar 1MDB scandal in Malaysia. On the first day of the trial, the U.S. Attorney's Office accused a former Goldman Sachs banker of taking $35 million in kickbacks.

Roger Ng, Goldman's former head of investment banking in Malaysia, is accused of conspiring to launder money and violating the anti-bribery law in his dealings with Malaysia's sovereign wealth fund 1MDB. Michalakis spent a long period of time in Malaysia, knew Roger and helped him move these funds offshore through his shell companies.

4) On March 4, 2016, the High Court in London ordered the compulsory liquidation of six companies in the UK. Investigations revealed that these companies shared common features such as unexplained and dramatic increases in share capital, appointment of fictitious directors, and theft of customer identities. There was also falsification of documents reporting significant assets and trading. Companies provided each other with favorable trade references and created websites with content usually taken from other genuine websites, all to create the appearance of bona fide business. Tax returns listed over 1.5 million pounds of non-existent assets. The reason for these falsifications is simple - to appear more creditworthy and obtain credit through fraud. The companies targeted suppliers of building materials, depriving them of more than £300,000 worth of goods. Goods supplied without payment were quickly moved out of the country.

5) Another story involves London Block Exchange Ltd, a company that was in the business of issuing crypto-bonds and raising investments. In April 2019, the organization started having payment problems and was forced to shut down in January 2020.

And now watch your hands - on July 26, 2019 London Block Exchange Ltd was renamed to Dragon Payments Ltd, and already on July 31, 2019 Michalakis registered a company with exactly the same name - London Block Exchange Ltd. It's a strange coincidence, isn't it? Probably, he knew the management or wanted to profit from not the most knowledgeable investors and embezzle the stolen funds.
