Company Profiles - Part One

What follows is a basic profile of various entities tied to Rodney Joffe, Victor Oppleman, and Raymond Saulino. In part two we will hit Global Resource Systems and others.

There is something very unusual in the structuring of these entities, which is unlike anything I have seen before outside of a textbook.

As an aside, I hope to be able to provide a good update on our open litigation in the coming weeks, which still stands at 3 cases, two against the Feds, and one against Antonakakis. I haven’t wanted to bring you along on the roller coaster of litigation, but things are good. A few hearings and decisions coming up on the horizon. I’m also prepping a lawsuit in Indiana to go fight for documents there.

A signature of many entities tied to these individuals are corporate registrations leading to UPS store locations or home residences. That is quite unusual.

Vostrom Holdings

1. It remains unclear to what extent Vostrom Holdings exists as an entity separate from Packet Forensics. A website advertising an entity named Vostrom Ventures was taken down as Fool_Nelson identified Rodney Joffe in the fall of 2021. The website listed team members as “Rodney”, “Sasha”, “Victor”, and “Raymond”. This appears to reference Rodney Joffe, Sasha Oppleman, Victor Oppleman, and Raymond Saulino. 

2. Packet Forensics sells surveillance equipment to the US government, as well as collects data on the internet through sensors it maintains. 

3. Vostrom Holdings appears to have spun out of a company named MainNerve Inc. during litigation between owners in 2005. Rodney Joffe and Victor Oppleman had ownership interests in MainNerve. Documents from that litigation also note the involvement of Martin Jannol, more on that later. 

4. Around that time, Joffe had the idea for an entity called Packet Interrogation.

5. Vostrom performed infrastructure work for a company called Plasmanet, operating “FreeLotto.com”, where Rodney Joffe was a long-time director and member of the board. 

6. Vostrom has also registered numerous domain names, including domains used by Measurement Systems LLC and Trustcor. 

7. In addition to legitimate companies, Vostrom maintains domains that appear not to relate to legitimate companies. 

8. One such example is a website registered to consiliolaw.com that advertises legal services while using stock images and boilerplate descriptions.

Consilio Law

1. The company address listed on the contact page is a UPS location in Virginia Beach. The same address shows up in registration documents for Block 3 LLC, which has Packet Forensics CTO Zachary Kanner noted as a Principal. 

   1. A separate and legitimate company named Consilio offers e-discovery and other services. 

2. The website could be intended to operate as a shell front.

3. Consilio Law LLC was formed on June 22, 2016 and registered to the same UPS location in Virginia Beach as Vostrom Holdings.

Measurement Systems 

Measurement Systems LLC is registered in Virginia to Raymond Saulino’s former personal residence. 

Measurement Systems is also registered in Panama, a known money laundering hub, and was reported in April 2022 to operate applications that surreptitiously harvest user data, with the apps appearing to target Islamic nations.

Officers of the Panamanian company include:

1. Assaf Golan

2. Chivalric Holding Company LLC

3. Frigate Bay Holding, LLC

4. Molina & Co, a Panamanian law firm

Trustcor Systems

1. Trustcor is registered to a UPS location in Toronto, CA. 

2. Trustcor is also registered in Panama. 

3. Trustcor is a root certificate authority reported in November 2022 to have intercepted communications from its email service to provide information to the US Government. 

4. Other domains registered by Vostrom Holdings appear to typo-squat legitimate and unrelated companies such as ProtonMail, HushMail, and Tutanota, redirecting users to the messaging service operated by Trustcor. 

5. Officers of the Panamanian company include:

   1. Assaf Golan

   2. Chivalric Holding Company LLC

   3. Frigate Bay Holding, LLC

   4. Molina & Co, a Panamanian law firm

Chivalric Holding Company and Frigate Bay Holdings

1. Chivalric Holding Company is registered in New Mexico.

2. Frigate Bay Holdings is registered in Wyoming.  

3. Both entities are also registered in Saint Kitts & Nevis, a known money laundering hub. 

4. Mailing addresses for each are to 21010 Southbank St, #3045, Sterling, VA, 20165 - (Parcel Plus location).  

5. Raymond Saulino is noted as a manager for both entities. 

6. These entities are noted as officers for an additional company named Appmosferic S. DE R.L., also registered in Panama. 

   1. Domains captured in archival sites indicate that appmosferic.com and appmospheric.com were used for operations. 

   2. Cyber researchers have speculated that the application design services advertised by the company served as a means to implant the malicious SDK code in order to harvest data. 

7. Assaf Golan and Molina & Co are also noted as officers. 

   1. A LinkedIn page for an Assaf Golan appears to indicate he may be an Israeli man, who worked for “Magma Group” as Chief Technology Officer.

   2. The page describes working from the Georgia (United States) branch of the company, though the website (https://www.magmagroup.co.il/) mentions no US operations.

   3. OpenCorporates indicates Assaf Golan worked as a director of “MidwayModern LLC” and “G&S Global Investments LLC” in Texas, although this needs more research. 

   4. Individuals associated with those companies appear to have involvement in a series of investment and real estate companies.

8. Molina & Co’s CEO Rodrigo Julio Molina Ortega (in Panama) is listed on an unusual website at worldlawalliance.com which advertises vague solutions for “Hi [sic] networth individuals.”

More soon.
