From Bombay to Goa and Chennai, the noose is finally tightening around QNet, the global Ponzi scheme that has been allowed to raise several thousand crores of rupees for 16 years (upward of Rs8,000 crore, according to estimates) from gullible people, luring them with fake promises of high returns or an attractive business opportunity. If Kirit Somaiya raised the issue in parliament in early May, then another BJP leader thundered against the scheme and its political links at a press conference at BJP’s headquarters in Mumbai.
QNet’s roots run deep into India’s powerful elite: politicians, bureaucrats, the police, investigative agencies, defence services as well as film and sports stars. It also enjoyed strong media clout as big advertiser and sponsor of popular television shows. But what next? Will the recent bursts of outrage and police action, finally, halt the steady and unrelenting march of a scheme that has successfully trapped people for over a decade? Let’s take a dispassionate look.
QNet flourished during the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) and touted its connection with Nalini Chidambaram, wife of the powerful finance minister. This happened even though an investigation by the serious frauds investigation office (SFIO) was ordered way back in 2010, 10 years after the company was set up in Chennai in the name of Gold Quest (Quest Net is another of its avatars), to sell numismatic coins, figurines and travel packages.
In March 2012, SFIO signed off on a bulky ‘secret’ report, which remained buried for four years until Gurpreet Singh, a whistleblower and relentless crusader against QNet, who has faced untold persecution by the company, presented it in the Bombay High Court. The SFIO report rips apart every pretension that QNet runs a legitimate business. In fact, it calls QNet a threat to national security. The report also reveals how QNet, while running a pyramid scheme, has itself used petitions and lawsuits in various courts, including the Supreme Court of India, to obtain relief from investigation; invariably, it has had the most expensive and powerful lawyers in the country to argue its case.
Even in 2010, the Supreme Court appointed a one-man commission to settle complaints against QNet but allowed it to continue doing business because the question of its legality was left open; it has not been settled as yet, says the SFIO. In effect, like hundreds of other Ponzi schemes, QNet had mastered the art of gaming the legal system to ensure that its operations were allowed to continue undisturbed by merely settling the few hundred formal complaints lodged against it.
The most startling part of the SFIO report is the categorical assertion that the QNet group is “not only conducting an illegal business contumaciously, but is also keeping and submitting falsified documents to the regulatory agencies.” Further, that its business operations and conduct are “totally unfair and prejudicial to public interest. They are also a potential threat to national security,” since the persons enrolled include large numbers from defence services and ministries. The report also establishes, with facts and figures, how a majority of people enrolled by QNet as participants in a big business opportunity have not been paid their commissions and have lost money.
If the SFIO report were not explosive enough, the government has a detailed study on Ponzi and pyramid schemes by the standing committee of parliament on finance, headed by Veerappa Moily, which was presented in October 2015. This report provides a macro perspective by pointing out that “huge amount of money has been transferred out of Ponzi schemes to multi-state cooperatives” which have become a “shelter for illegitimate funds due to their weak regulatory regime.” More shockingly, it says, such cooperatives, operating under the agriculture ministry, have increased 100-fold since 2010.
With these two reports in hand, we should have witnessed a nationwide crackdown against QNet and thousands of other Ponzi schemes that are looting ill-informed and gullible people. Instead, we have some shouting and name-calling in parliament and at press conferences and a few hundred orders by the Securities & Exchange Board of India (SEBI) asking money circulation schemes to stop raising funds or to refund the money. We have no clue if these orders are being obeyed and whether SEBI even has the capacity to enforce them. Meanwhile, each law enforcement agency uses a different law to initiate action against specific Ponzis. We do not see any attempt as yet to act on the standing committee’s recommendation to frame a single comprehensive law that will actually protect people from this rampant loot through pyramid and multi-level marketing schemes.
I have been trapped by one college freind Amit Keyal ,from Calcutta University, who had once been a good friend and kind of a guide as well. I trusted him since college and respected him as I thought him to be a simple good man. But I am so mistaken as I released last year when he forced (by lying and showing confidence in him saying he is always there) me to pay him almost 2 Lakhs (I took a loan to give him that money) which he said he would give me back if I am not able to continue the so called e-commerce business (Qnet). Nothing was explained before the payment was made. all details about how the company works and what do i have to do are told after I was already trapped and had no other way but to follow what they say. They ask you to make friends and tell them that I m into a mind blowing business and henceforth trap the victim. I chose not to cheat people. My money is lost because since then I have called and messaged that so called businessman (traitor) numerous times but in vain and now after an year I have almost lost all hope of getting back my money .
But I m happy that I didn't turn into one of those kinds going around cheating my own friends and family.
There are many people making a lot of money out of this totally fraud MLM company. There are other MLM companies as well but they are ethical as they agree to that fact and reveal what a member has to do before trapping someone.

This guy is a sweet talker and will promise you refund from QNET if you appoint him as an advocate, he is doing nothing but cheating your further...here is his modus operandi...
He also claims to be behind several actions that have been taken place by mumbai police and FFVA but the FACT remains that he has nothing to do with any of these actions being taken all over India.
He will convince victims to appoint him as an ADVOCATE and thereafter tell victims to deposit Rs 50,000 in various bank accounts to show that he has been apponited.
He will promise that he will return back the money after showing that to QNET office but the FACT remains that after the money is transferred he will stop recieving your calls and vanish .
We have recieved multiple complaints against this FRAUD, please BEWARE you all have already been cheated dont get cheated again.

Four persons, who were associated with Hong Kong-based QNET, a multi-level marketing (MLM) company, and duped 200 persons by promising them jobs, were arrested by Central Crime Station (CCS) officials on Thursday. However, the MD and directors of QNET and its sister company Vihaan Direct Selling are still at large.
Deputy commissioner of police (CCS) Avinash Mohanty said Sreenath Konda, Prasanna Kumar Reddy, V Kanchana, B Dhan Raj were arrested from different locations in the city for cheating people.
Police said the accused had been enrolling gullible people as agents by collecting Rs 10 lakh from a group of 10 persons.
Each person would be given status of promoter, direct them to attract a group (i.e., 10 persons) and make them join QNET by paying Rs 10 lakh, for which the promoter would be assured commission.
Mumbai: The Supreme Court on Thursday directed the Maharashtra Government to file the latest status report regarding investigation so far on the anticipatory bail plea of World Billiards champion Michael Ferreira and four others, who are facing charges of money laundering in the multi-crore QNet case.
The next hearing in the matter will take place on September 14.
Besides Ferreira, the others whose anticipatory bail plea were rejected were Malcom Desai, Vanka Srinivas, Maganlal Balaji, all directors of M/s Vihaan Direct Selling (India) Pvt. Ltd, and Suresh Themiri, director of Transview Enterprises.
They are facing charges under Sections 420 (mischief), 468 (forgery), 471 (using forged document knowing it is not genuine) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).
Justice Mridula Bhatkar of the Bombay High Court, who took on record the statement of public prosecutor Pradeep Gharat that investigations were still on, had in May rejected their anticipatory bail pleas.
Ferreira had started the operations of QNet, a multi-level marketing company, in India via his firm Vihaan Enteprises.
The QNet cheating case began with a complaint by Gurpreet Singh Anand, who raised his voice after losing Rs. 30,000.
According to the police, the money involved has crossed Rs. 1,000 crores in the alleged scam with more than five lakh investors allegedly losing their money in the case against QNet which is being probed by the Economic Offences Wing.

Delhi Police Economic Offence Wing(EOW) has registered an FIR against QNET India/Vihaan Direct selling India Private Limited and its three independent representatives on the allegations of cheating and fraudulently operating the multi level marketing, which is illegal in India. Police have initiated the investigation and suspecting huge scam, which is estimated in crores.
A senior Police officer of EOW said that we received a combined complaint against QNET India and its three independent representatives from more than dozen of people in the month of March this year. As per the allegations of main complainant Anuj Jain alleged that his friend Himashu Aggarwal approached him for an business opportunity. He said that he is an independent representative(IR) of an e-commerce based company. He said that he can arrange an meeting with the other IR’s who will tell you about the business and if they find you suitable you will get chance to be a part of the company. After few days Himanshu called Anuj Jain to come with a CV at a café situated in Nehru Place area on 29 November 2015. Anuj reached there, where he met with Himanshu and his to associates Anita Jaggi and Kanika. Trio told him about the business profile and also assured that this is not a networking marketing company. They demanded Rs 6.5 lakh to be a member of the company. They also said that company has millions of customers. IR of the company is treated as a partner and also got the profit share for each sale. After three four days Anuj gave them 6.5 lakh rupees but after some time he got to know that this is a multi level marketing company and fraudulently cheating innocent persons by roping them in it’s banned business with the help of IRs.
Police said that Anuj is not the only complainant so many more complainants also approached to EOW. After which a preliminary enquiry had conducted. It was found that some persons who are termed as IR contact their friends and close persons to join a new e-commerce business. They don’t tell the name of the company or complete business module at the beginning. After alluring them they set various amounts from the victim. Independent Representatives(IR) get training during the joining and talk to make further members. These kinds of IRs of the company are operated from different cafes and food courts situated in Delhi and NCR.
Those who join the company get user id etc and products like ravel packages, some other items etc are shown purchase from their money. The delivery address given in the portal is also found of overseas area most of the time and mostly that address is too fake type location only which shows that no products are being sold and it is a completely a money circulation scheme. Two websites were found involved in the namely www.unetindia.in and www.cmetindia.net were found mated to Vihaan Direct selling (India) Pvt ltd which is stated Indian Franchisee of Hong Kong based net company. Investigations are on. Police are trying to unearth the whole network of the IRs on which this company is running its business unlawfully in Delhi.

Mumbai: The Economic Offences Wing (EOW) has arrested Ram Singh, an accused in the Rs 1,000 crore QNet case, for earning Rs 50 lakh or more as commission each year from proceeds of the crime.
Singh, a Bengaluru resident, was arrested last week after the imigration authorities at Bangalore airport detained him over a look out circular notice (LOC) issued by the Mumbai police. "We are going through all his bank account details and trying to ascertain the source of money to his account," said DCP Pravin Padwal of the EOW.
Singh's name had cropped up during the initial investigation in 2013 but the police could not locate him then. In January 2015, a police team visited his Bengaluru residence but did not find him there. The house was locked. He is the 19th accused to be arrested in this case so far.
"We are working to arrest all the culprits in this case. A special investigation team has been formed to nab the othe accused invovled," said Dhananjay Kamalakar, joint police commissioner, EOW. Singh, said police sources, has been sending money to his daughter who is studying in Canada. "We have to know his source of income. He has sent a major chunk of money to Canada. We suspect this money was gained from QNet. Moreover, he was looking after the QNet business in Dubai and has been shuttling between Dubai and India. We got his passport number late. Soon after getting it, we issued an LOC notice and he was detained," said an officer.
A special MPIDA court in February this year rejected the anticipatory bail plea of Michael Ferreira (77) winner of the World Amateur Billiards Championship and a Padma Bhushan recipient, and four others, Malcom Desai, Vanka Srinivas, Maganlal Balaji, all directors of M/s Vihaan Direct Selling (India) Pvt Ltd and Suresh Themiri, director Transview Enterprises. They all have approached the high court now in the QNet case.
"They posed as a marketing firm which would sell bio-discs, watches, herbal products, holiday packages, etc. They even claimed that by using the bio-disc, one can cure cancer and brain diseases," cops said. Some money has been transferred to Malayasia, Singapore and Hong Kong, too, cops added.

Mumbai: The city's economic offences wing (EOW) is now looking into allegations that several Bollywood celebrities campaigned for the cheat firm, QNet, through advetisements or by promoting the schemes of the self-proclaimed marketing firm.
Gurupreet Singh Anand, complainant in the Rs 1,000-crore QNet cheating case, on Wednesday said at least four Bollywood actors promoted the Ponzi schemes at different times in the QNet's promotional programs in United Kingdom and Malaysia. He has submitted a 23-page letter wherein he has attached the celebrities' pictures promoting the programs.
"I have submitted letter and all the relevant information to the EOW on May 12. I am hoping some action soon," Anand told TOI. He alleged that the money was laundered from India to Hong Kong and Malaysia.
Anand was speaking at a press conference where suddenly a group of QNet sympathisers appeared with "I trust QNet" placards.. They were later asked to leave the conference room.
