Telexfree is a trade name owned by Telexfree Inc, that became best known for its operations in Brazil held by Ympactus Comercial Ltda after it was involved in an ongoing investigation for allegedly operating a Ponzi scheme.
The Brazilian court of Acre State suspended the company’s operations in that country.
The Telexfree frenzy has hit Uganda in the recent months with many people attracted to the simplicity of it’s work that enables one to post a given number of links to website that in turn earns one a given income depending on the subscription.
It’s critics argue that while Telexfree claims it uses the selling of chunk voip services, as a camouflage / disguise, their real core business is new enrollments, associates, affiliates and ‘victims’.
