Justin Halladay is the man behind the notorious CashFX scam. He is currently on the run and is residing in the Dominican Republic.
His company scammed hundreds, if not thousands, across the globe. It was a Ponzi scheme which provided no information about its owners or leadership in its initial days. The company entered the market in 2019 and collapsed in 2021.
All this time, Justin Halladay promoted the scheme and ensured that the operation reached as many people as possible.
In 2019, the company had claimed that Huascar Lopez was the founder and CEO of the company.
On the other hand, Justin Halladay held the top investment position in the Ponzi scheme.
His fleeing the US was one of the first clear signs of the impending CashFX collapse of 2021.
According to Alexa, the US was the third-largest source of traffic for the scam. However, the figure was much higher considering how the company urged its customers to use VPNs to mask their IPs.
CashFX wasn’t the first scam by Justin Halladay. Apparently, he used to run Cloud Token and scammed many through that fraudulent crypto token.
According to various victim reports and sources, it’s suspected that Justin and Luigi Bruni have stolen several millions from the victims of CashFX Group.
However, if Justin believes that leaving the US to reside in the Dominican Republic would save him from the grip of US authorities, he is mistaken. That’s because the Dominican Republic has an extradition agreement with the US.
It’s quite common among scammers and criminals to avoid jail time by fleeing to another country. For example, Samir Azizi Dubai was trying to flee to Dubai when he was arrested by the US authorities. The fraudster was facing multiple criminal charges in Europe.
His social media posts revealed that he is hiding out in Las Terranas.
How Justin Halladay Scammed People With CashFX Group:
Justin Halladay and Huascar Lopez launched CashFX in 2019. The company didn’t sell any products. Instead, it sold its affiliate membership and then its MLM scheme to others.
According to the company, its affiliate investment gave people access to “Trade Academy Education Packages”.
Furthermore, the company claimed to offer 400% ROI on its investments and the maximum ROI one could potentially get was capped at 15% a week.
The structure was like this:
| $300 Invested Amount | 300 Package |
| $500 Invested Amount | 500 Package |
| $1000 Invested Amount | 1K Package |
| $2000 Invested Amount | 2K Package |
| $5000 Invested Amount | 5K Package |
| $10,000 Invested Amount | 10K Package |
| $20,000 Invested Amount | 20K Package |
| $30,000 Invested Amount | 30K Package |
| $50,000 Invested Amount | 50K Package |
| $100,000 Invested Amount | 100K Package |
Above, you see the table of their investment packages you could buy to get their “Affiliate Returns”.
The company claimed to offer 200% ROI on affiliate returns while 400% ROI on its MLM section.
Clearly, the promises of Justin Halladay’s company were extremely lucrative. The company claimed that your investment package would expire when either 200% affiliate returns or 400% MLM commissions were earned.
To get subsequent returns, the company required you purchase a new package.
The MLM Structure of CashFX:
At CashFX Group, there were 7 ranks one could attain:
| Rank | Requirement |
| Affiliate | Sign up and buy a CashFX package |
| Executive | Maintain a 1K or higher package, recruit and maintain 3 active members and produce 7000 group volume |
| Manager | Maintain a 1K or higher package, recruit and maintain 2 Executive or higher members, produce 25,000 group volume |
| Director | Maintain a 1K or higher package, recruit and maintain 2 Manager or higher members, produce 100,000 group volume |
| President Club | Maintain a 1K or higher package, recruit and maintain 3 Director or higher members, produce 500,000 group volume |
| Ambassador | Maintain a 1K or higher package, recruit and maintain 3 President Club or higher members, produce 2,000,000 group volume |
| Global Ambassador | Maintain a 1K or higher package, recruit and maintain 2 Ambassador or higher members, produce 5,000,000 group volume |
The personal volume of every investment package at Justin Halladay’s firm was half of its investment requirement. So, it was something like this:
| 300 Investment Package | 150 Personal Volume |
| 500 Investment Package | 250 Personal Volume |
| 1K Investment Package | 500 Personal Volume |
| 2K Investment Package | 1000 Personal Volume |
| 5K Investment Package | 2500 Personal Volume |
| 10K Investment Package | 5000 Personal Volume |
| 20K Investment Package | 10,000 Personal Volume |
| 30K Investment Package | 15,000 Personal Volume |
| 50K Investment Package | 25,000 Personal Volume |
| 100K Investment Package | 50,000 Personal Volume |
Commission at CashFX:
Justin’s company claimed to offer 50% commission on the funds of your personally recruited affiliates. You would get 50% of the personal volume you generate in this company. So, if you sold a 1K package, it would generate 500 PV and you would get $250.
Every pyramid scheme is structured in levels where the person at the top gets the most returns. CashFX was no exception.
To make itself sound lucrative, it had a clearly laid out level-structure.
It’s a pretty common scheme. You start at level 0 and the people you recruit would be on level 1 (for you). The people your level 1 affiliates recruit would be on level 2 and so forth.
Almost all MLM scams such as OmegaPro and Yolllo follow structures like this.
The level-based commission structure in this scam by Justin Halladay was:
| Rank | Commissions |
| Affiliate | 10% on level 1 – 4 |
| Executive | 10% on level 1 – 4 and 20% on level 5 and 6 |
| Manager | 10% on level 1 – 4, 20% on level 5 & 6, 5% on levels 7 and 8 |
| Director | 10% on level 1 – 4, 20% on levels 5 & 6, 5% on levels 7 – 9 |
| President Club | 10% on level 1 – 4, 20% on levels 5 & 6, 5% on levels 7 – 10, 1% from level 11 |
| Ambassador | 10% on level 1 – 4, 20% on levels 5 & 6, 5% on levels 7 – 10, 1.5% from level 11 |
| Global Ambassador | 10% on level 1 – 4, 20% on levels 7 & 8, 5% on levels 7 – 10 and 2% from level 11 |
So, How Did Justin Halladay Make Money from This Scam?
Although CashFX made numerous promises and claims about how much returns it would offer, the truth is, it was a Ponzi scheme.
A Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent scheme which pays existing investors in a nonexistent enterprise with the funds it collects from new investors.
CashFX never had a product of its own. It paid its older investors by using the funds it received from its new recruits. Eventually, the recruitment process slowed down and the company couldn’t pay its investors.
Every Ponzi scheme follows this structure. This is why you should be extremely wary of any new investment scheme claiming to offer unrealistic returns.
A similar scam is LyoPay, an online Ponzi scheme posing as a crypto venture. The promoter of that scam is Luiz Goes and it uses the same tactics Jusin Halladay was using to promote CashFX.
MLM scams tend to succeed by targeting vulnerable sections and making false promises to customers. They make their compensation plan highly lucrative on paper and make it seem as if the company will never fail.
People end up investing a lot of money hoping they would get double or in this case quadruple of what they invested. However, the returns are never so impressive.
In most cases, the company stops paying its investors after 1 or 2 installments. Many of their investors never receive any payments from the company at all. In the next section of this writeup you’ll read about how much damage Justin Halladay has caused through this scam:

Reviewer Calls Out Justin Halladay’s Fake Reviews

Zac highlights that although the weekly returns look good on paper, you would never see a single cent. Also, you wouldn’t be able to make any withdrawals. He suggested running away from Justin Halladay’s company.
Another CashFX Review Exposing the Scam
Johnny points out that his friend introduced him to this company a year ago. He heard the sales pitch and explained that it’s literally impossible for a trading company to offer such returns.
The company claimed that it made 1% returns per day. They even showed him a data sheet to “prove” that they were making profits every single day. Certainly, Justin had prepared the company’s marketing pitch well.
Johnny explained that it was impossible because nobody can win every single day. In response, the CashFX marketers told him that they do lose every day but their wins are more so there’s always a net gain.
So, Johny invested $500 to test it out. Surely, he was earning returns every single day until he doubled the money.
However, when he tried to make a withdrawal, it never arrived. CashFX showed it as “pending”.
Johny feels bad for the people who are still falling for this scam. Also, he points out that Justin Halladay’s marketers are adding fake reviews on CashFX.

Justin Halladay is among the biggest fraudsters out there. Because of him and cashfx, I lost so many friends and capital. They promised that we will get regular payments but they were lying. No wonder he ran off to some unknown countries. People here would eat him alive.
CashFX made me lose over a thousand dollars a month in 2021.
They are some of the most selfish and heartless people I have ever worked with.
I had no idea Justin was the man running everything. Glad to see some people are speaking out against the scammer.
“Get more recruits, get more recruits” I was so tired of hearing this from my upline.
I approached all of my friends, some of them even invested. None of us got paid.
CashFX was probably the biggest scam of the last few years. There needs to be a serious investigation into this entire scheme. Our agencies couldn’t be so incompetent!
You’re telling me that Justin has launched another company?! What about the investors of CashFX? Did he just forget about all of them?
I regret giving this guy my money. I was one of those gullible investors who were lured in by CashFX and its lucrative promises. They stole a couple thousand dollars from me.
Didn’t even get a penny in payouts from that investment.
CashFX stole from me. I had invested with them a while back and never got any payments. Justin Halladay needs to be put under arrest for defrauding so many people.
