'Live' company still in operation: Singapore-registered firm that promised quick returns on crypto investments flagged by FBI, SEC

Its founders claimed to have sought a licence from the Monetary Authority of Singapore and, on the firm's now-defunct website, said it was a trustworthy business because "we are a registered company", with a separate webpage showing its address in Singapore. Meanwhile, the FBI and SEC said they could neither confirm nor deny that they were investigating the matter.

The woman, an American, pumped more than US$15,000 into InvesableAI on July 13, 2023, but about two months later, the firm informed her and other investors that withdrawals would be paused "temporarily". The group has also compiled a spreadsheet that details the outstanding sums due to more than 60 of them.

Claiming to have more than 14,000 members, the firm also had a referral programme where investors could earn higher interest rates on certain deposits if they roped in others successfully. Checks showed that HeySara, a digital corporate service provider, handled InvesableAI's incorporation. But HeySara did not conduct any checks on Mr Dalton's financial background, she added, as he wanted to incorporate the company with only a $1,000 paid-up capital. She did not elaborate on how the company vetted the information.

She did not respond to follow-up e-mails from ST seeking clarification, including on the discrepancy between HeySara's vetting of InvesableAI and Acra guidelines.Checks against publicly available property records and data brokers found that an elderly couple with no relation to Mr Dalton have been living at the address since 2009.

Meanwhile, a Singaporean man is named in the Acra records as the firm's other director, although he was not listed on InvesableAI's website.
