Following FinTelegram’s December 2025 exposé on the Winning.io / Scatters Group network, a whistleblower has provided documentary evidence confirming that the economic ownership and control structure traces directly to Starkeast Management B.V., controlled by Menno Jordaan. The whistleblower states: “The owner of these sites (all of them) is now, starkeast service owned by menno jordaan. he is the director of starscream aswell.”

Critically, the whistleblower reports that Alexis Wicén and Scatters Group have systematically removed all references to Winning.io from their website following FinTelegram’s original December 2025 report—a classic compliance red flag indicating consciousness of wrongdoing and attempted evidence destruction.​

The Cover-Up: Scatters Group Scrubs Winning.io from Public Records

Evidence Preservation by Whistleblower:
The anonymous source reports: “After your article alexis wicen and scatters group has removed all information about winning from their site trying to hide this from the people. fortunately i have all these screenshots from when it was still there.”

Documentary Evidence Provided:

The whistleblower supplied screenshots showing:

1. LinkedIn Post (2023): Scatters Group announcing Winning.io as “our latest crypto #casino and the very first #sportsbook brand” and “the 5th brand of Scatters Group”.​

2. LinkedIn Company Profile: Scatters Group’s “About Us” page explicitly listing Winning.io alongside Scatters Casino, Sticky Wilds, GoSlot, and BitReels as part of their portfolio.​

Current Status (January 2026):

As of this intelligence update, references to Winning.io have been removed from Scatters Group’s public-facing materials. This systematic scrubbing occurred after FinTelegram’s December 2025 report linked Scatters Group to the Winning.io operation and the broader “New Gammix” network.

Compliance Analysis:

In regulatory enforcement and financial crime investigations, the deliberate deletion of documentary evidence following public exposure is treated as consciousness of guilt and potential obstruction. The fact that Scatters Group—a Malta-based entity claiming to operate legitimately—chose to (try to) erase its association with Winning.io rather than defend the relationship or clarify the corporate structure strongly suggests that:

The relationship was never a mere “consultancy” as publicly claimed, but involved operational control or beneficial ownership.

Scatters Group and its principals (Alexis Wicén) are aware that Winning.io’s operations violate EU gambling regulations.

The removal is intended to create deniability ahead of potential regulatory action.

FinTelegram has preserved all evidence provided by the whistleblower and will make it available to regulators and law enforcement upon request.

The Ownership Trail: Starkeast Management & Menno Jordaan

Whistleblower Statement:

“The owner of these sites (all of them) is now, starkeast service owned by menno jordaan. he is the director of starscream aswell.”

Cyprus Registry Confirmation:

The Cyprus Companies Registry confirms that Starkeast Management B.V. (Netherlands) is listed as a Director of Wagercraft Services Ltd (Cyprus, HE 455954), the payment agent and operational entity for Winning.io. According to Winning.io’s current Terms & Conditions (updated January 15, 2026), Wagercraft Services Ltd is the operator, and it is described as a wholly owned subsidiary of Wagercraft Limited (St. Lucia).​

The Starscream Connection:

The whistleblower explicitly confirms that Menno Jordaan is also the director of Starscream Limited, the St. Lucia-based entity operating the former Gammix brands (Scatters Casino, Locowin, Vegadream, GoSlot) under a Kahnawake Gaming Commission license. This confirms the structural unity between Starscream and Wagercraft—they are parallel vehicles controlled by the same individual via Starkeast Management.​

The Rabidi Connection:

Starkeast Management (in its Curaçao incarnation, Starkeast Management N.V.) was previously identified by the insolvency administrator of Rabidi N.V. as the statutory director of Adonio N.V., the entity to which Rabidi’s 34 casino brands were transferred for €1.2 million—a fraudulent transfer from which Rabidi received no payment.

The Rabidi administrator declared this transfer null and void and initiated claims against Starkeast for asset stripping. This pattern—using Starkeast as a corporate “juggler” to move assets between shells while shielding beneficial owners—appears to have been replicated with Winning.io and the broader Starscream/Wagercraft network.​

Menno Jordaan as Professional Nominee:

FinTelegram’s assessment is that Menno Jordaan, through Starkeast Management B.V. and its Curaçao sister entity, acts as a professional nominee director and trustee for undisclosed beneficial owners, likely based in Cyprus or the Netherlands. The whistleblower’s statement that Jordaan is “the owner” likely refers to his role as the visible controller, though FinTelegram believes he serves as a front for deeper beneficial owners who remain deliberately obscured.​

Licensing Confusion & Regulatory Arbitrage

Current License Claim (January 2026):

Winning.io’s Terms & Conditions state that the operator is Wagercraft Services Ltd (Cyprus), a wholly owned subsidiary of Wagercraft Limited (St. Lucia). However, the whistleblower’s screenshot and multiple third-party review sites list Winning.io as operating under Dama N.V. (Curaçao) with license number 8048/JAZ2020-13 (Antillephone N.V.).​​

Analysis:

This dual-identity structure—common in high-risk offshore casino networks—allows the operator to:

Claim Curaçao licensing for “legitimacy” when challenged (as shown in the 2023 tweet).​

Deflect liability to Cyprus (Wagercraft Services) when payment agents are scrutinized.​

Attribute operational control to St. Lucia (Wagercraft Limited) when EU regulators investigate.​

The involvement of Starkeast Management B.V. as director of the Cyprus entity adds another layer of obfuscation, making it nearly impossible for players or regulators to identify the true beneficial owners.​

The Rabidi Parallel: Asset Stripping & Fraudulent Transfers

The identical involvement of Starkeast Management in both the Rabidi N.V. bankruptcy and the Wagercraft/Winning.io structure is not coincidental.​

Rabidi Pattern (2024):

1. Rabidi N.V. (34 casinos) operates under Curaçao license.

2. Assets transferred to Adonio N.V. for €1.2M, no payment received.

3. Starkeast Management N.V. acts as director of Adonio.

4. Insolvency administrator declares transfer fraudulent; Starkeast faces claims.​

5. Casinos continue operating anonymously under new domains.​

Winning.io / Starscream Pattern (2023-2026):

1. Scatters Group (Malta consultancy) announces Winning.io launch (2023).​

2. Operations assigned to Wagercraft Services Ltd (Cyprus), directed by Starkeast Management B.V..​

3. License claims oscillate between Dama N.V. (Curaçao, 2023) and Wagercraft Limited (St. Lucia, 2026).​​

4. Casino targets prohibited markets (France, Netherlands) using VPN encouragement and payment obfuscation.​

5. After FinTelegram exposé (December 2025), Scatters Group scrubs all public references to Winning.io.​

Hypothesis:

Menno Jordaan and Starkeast Management function as professional asset movers and nominee directors within a larger network controlled by beneficial owners based in Cyprus or the Netherlands (potentially connected to Tilaros Limited, Tranello Limited, and the ButOn Group, all linked to Rabidi).

When regulatory or insolvency pressure mounts, assets (domains, player databases, trademarks) are transferred to new shells, with Starkeast providing the corporate “legitimacy” for these transfers. The scrubbing of evidence by Scatters Group follows this exact pattern: distance the visible entities from the toxic brands before enforcement action arrives.​

Conclusion

The whistleblower’s intelligence—corroborated by preserved documentary evidence—confirms that Winning.io is controlled by Menno Jordaan via Starkeast Management B.V., the same entity implicated in the fraudulent Rabidi N.V. bankruptcy. The systematic removal of Winning.io references from Scatters Group’s website following FinTelegram’s December 2025 exposé represents a deliberate attempt to obstruct investigators and create plausible deniability for Alexis Wicén and other principals.​​

The use of transaction-laundering techniques (disguising gambling deposits as “cryptocurrency purchases” via Rillpay) and documented encouragement of VPN use to bypass geographic blocks demonstrates a deliberate, premeditated strategy to evade national gambling regulations and defraud players.​

FinTelegram calls on the Malta Gaming Authority, Dutch KSA, French ANJ, and Cyprus financial regulators to investigate the Scatters Group / Starscream / Wagercraft network and the role of Starkeast Management B.V. in facilitating illegal gambling operations across multiple jurisdictions.
