Default starmindusa.com (Star Mind, Star Trainer, Top Brain SCAMS)

Beware and be informed that, as is typical of any Scam, 'Star Trainer' (www.startrainer.org) has been changed to 'Star Mind' (www.starmindusa.com), though it may still retain the parent company name of 'Top Brain' (www.topbrain.net) which is the originator of the Employment Scam.

Also note that Timothy Koh Ming Kwang has been changed to 'Huna'. Therefore Huna = Timothy Koh, in person.


For more information regarding TopBrain & StarTrainer scams, go to the following forums :

There are principally 7 ways in which the Con-Artist Timothy Koh @ Huna will try to con your money, in exchange for an offered salary that may be 'Too Good to be True !' :

1) (starting off with a small amount) Processing fee for employment (US$30 -- $60)

2) (Fake) Charity in Thailand or whatever country (US$70 -- $200)

3) Pledge money to 'activate' TopBrain's 'international account' -- US$2000

4) (Hidden) Payment for Memory Training -- US$2000

5) (Non-existent) Payment for Expenses to and in Hawaii -- US$2000.

I will quote from StarMind's contract to Keaney in 419Legal :
"The appointee is expected to pay a subsidized rate USD 2000 for the initial expenses which would include food, accommodation , materials, books, entertainment, education trips around Hawaii, and transportation for the first month. This also includes the flight expenses from Malaysia to USA, and everything else above USD2000 is borne by the company. The 2000USD should be directed to only to Starmind Corporation corporate bank account :

Bank: Central Pacific Bank
Account Name: Starmind Corporation
Central Pacific Bank Account No.: 4000 348 100
Swift Code: CEPBUS77
Bank Address: Central Pacific Bank, Main Branch, 220 South King Street
Honolulu, Hawaii 96813, United States of America
Bank Info Line : +1 808 5222222, Routing No: 121 301578"


6) Star Mind membership -- USD$5000 per year

7) Invest in his virtual company StarMind Corporation -- US$ XXX millions.

I will quote from starmindusa.com website :
"There are 100 000 000 shares in Starmind Corporation and they are paid at USD 1 per share. Majority of these shares are owed by Great Grandmaster Huna and Ms. Jennifer Gaul the CEO. The other investors and shareholders make up the rest of the minority shares."

Drawing inference from the account of 'RubbishCollector' in FraudWatchers.org :
http://fraudwatchers.org/forums/showthread.php?t=3672,

we believe that 'Ms. Jennifer Gaul the CEO' is probably a fake character whom Timothy Koh @ Huna just simply snapped a picture of without permission on Waikiki beach !


Please note that starmindusa.com website is only set up very recently on 15th Jan 2007 ! Its unprofessional design & style closely matches startrainer.org & topbrain.net.

Since Timothy Koh Ming Kwang is now based in Hawaii to launch his Scam operations in America (after Singapore & Hong Kong), I hope that Americans will alert their Law Enforcement authorities in Hawaii & mainland America of the risk posed by this full-time career Con-Artist called 'Huna', who will take on various guises (including different company names) in order to deceive people that he is a financially-secure corporate President or Vice-President with the additional title of 'Great GrandMaster of World Memory'.
