Building on from @
jlo2012 post.. I think they are mostly scam websites (I play one of the games in my spare time, and I know the types of websites that sell the currency, and the people involved in that sort of business), I'm surprised at the volume, considering how little these sites are offering any services. But I'm also surprised how the directors for the company are very much not the demographic to run this sort of business, and to be honest, not the sort of people I'd expect to see being the sole directors of businesses.
Giftergo:Definitely a placeholder website, possibly for sharing malware through their gifs. They have a facebook, but it's completely absent of anyone following the page.
The email address on their website is ceosrd at gmail. google searching that gives a few hits:
https://muk-naayak.blogspot.com/p/blog-page.html -> another placeholder scam website
https://apkcombo.com/fisherman/com.wFisherman_8444928/ -> developer for this one single app, nothing else
Bonusboosts:Same website template as Victoryvault (note the same layout for page bottom).
The phone numbers aren't connected.
The company "Cursthead Limited" was formed last year, and moved ownership after 3 months. It's currently owned by a lady in her 40's, odd for a gaming currency/boosting website.. Judging by her facebook, I don't believe she is running a gaming currency website.
Website sourcecode itself has an odd javascript bit tucked right at the end, probably nothing more than what runs on the page normally though.
Victoryvault:Phone numbers aren't connected.
Owned by "Viviher Limited", the director is a 26 year old girl who works as an assistant store manager at a cosmetics store. She hasn't even got any games listed she likes on her facebook page, she's definitely not in the demographic to run a video game currency website.
Incorporated 18 months ago but surprisingly, based on the most recent accounts, the company has cash assets of $1.475million pounds, with 1.440 of debt falling due within the year.
She was previously a director of "Bill-It.Co Limited", which strangely had 2 directors of the same exact name, but different DoB's:
Jason has just a few companies under his name:

but regarding Victoryvault.. What causes more alarm bells to ring in my little forensic accountant head is her signature on the confirmation statement. Most signatures resemble a name, hers definitely doesn't.: https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/11717554/filing-history
The accounts themselves were prepared by "DP Taxation", which apparently the offices are at this address according to their website:

Their email address is a gmail account, their twitter has 4 posts ever, their number is a not connected mobile, I've emailed them just to see if they exist.
But it honestly looks like all of these gaming sites are just flat out scams.. I get that the company is just the blockchain p2p verification, but you'd still want to have a little more scrutiny on your customers. I assume for them to onboard customers there would have been some communication, with regard to victoryvault.. it seems very odd that a 26 year old cosmetic retail assistant has ISX's tech ready to use but sticks with Visa/MasterCard, how did she end up in connection with us?
Apologies for the lengthy post, I didn't expect the rabbit hole I just went down. There is a surprising amount of information available on just the few companies I looked into, I wouldn't mind looking into more of them.. if you can help me get a larger list jlo?
