Another day and another product that promises very high earnings in a short space of time.
But yet again I feel like I have seen very similar claims being made by a separate product that appears to be almost identical?
Let me explain, and please bear with me…
A couple of weeks ago I reviewed a product called “Quantum Code”. It was widely reported to be a product that tricked people into trading binary options. I wanted to make sure my visitors were aware of the tactics it was using.
Here’s a screenshot of the video on the Quantum Code website:
Before I go any further, I ask that you please take a look at my review of The Quantum Code. Trust me…you will soon realize why it’s important.
Click here to read my review of Quantum Code (opens in a new window)
It doesn’t matter if you found this post by searching for The Orion Code, Quantum Code or you were just browsing my website and happened upon this post.
You are about to discover an incredible “connection” that I stumbled upon – almost by accident.
THE ORION CODE AND WHY THIS CONNECTION MATTERS
When I joined the Quantum Code to create this review on October 4th, I was surprised that I didn’t receive any follow-up emails.
Then today, I received 8 emails in one hit from the Quantum Code team.
They all stated that I had $15,000 waiting and to collect the payment I had to watch a webinar.
Obviously intrigued, I followed the link to the webinar.
Here’s where it sent me…
Now I’m sure you will agree…this looks almost identical to the Quantum Code video above. Even the dialogue is the same!
I’m not going to drag this out or complicate things further. The Orion Code is an exact copy of the Quantum Code.
The emails are not sending me to a webinar to collect my $15,000…they are sending me to a recreated version of the original program.
THE ORION CODE IN A NUTSHELL
This review could well be one of the easiest that I have ever written.
There’s no need for me to explain the Orion Code process because it’s exactly the same as the Quantum Code process. Here’s what both products try to do…
- Make you think you will earn $100,000’s without spending any of your own money.
- Attempt to convince you that you do not need experience to make it work.
- Make you think there are only 20 spots available.
- Only to tell you there are only 2 spots available.
- Once you submit your details to try it for free, you are told to invest a minimum of $250 to the preferred binary trading broker.
Just to prove the similarities, let me show you a few screenshots from the Orion Code video. Here’s Edward Robinson taking a private jet to the Orion Code headquarters:
And here’s Michael Crawford taking a private jet to the Quantum Code Headquarters. Note that the script is identical.
Isn’t that uncanny? At least Edward has more headroom than Michael had :-)
Next up I discovered an error of epic proportions…
Antony, (Sergay’s equivalent from the Quantum Code), describes the technology behind the Orion Code. He calls it…“NQS”.
He goes on to explain what “NQS” stands for…
Shouldn’t that be…“Near Quantum Speed”?
Moving forward through the video there are even more similarities. If you’ve read my review of Quantum Code, you will also know that Michael contacted 3 beta tester users to check on their progress.
It turns out those same 3 people, Robert, Mark, and Cindy ALSO tried the Orion Code!
And just like last time, it would appear that Cindy from South Africa is too busy spending her earnings to take a call from Edward and the Orion Code team.
The Orion Code video follows the exact same path as the Quantum Code. Eventually, you are asked to hand over your contact details and claim one of the 20 spots available.
When you do, you are taken to a page where Edward is waiting with some really important news.
This all seems more than familiar. What was it that happened at the exact same stage with the Quantum Code?
I remember…
Yes, it’s identical.
Edward shares the exact same good/bad news that Michael shared in the Quantum Code video. The system is working 3 times more powerful than expected, and there are now only 2 spots available.
You are then asked to hand your details over once again, including your phone number. Edward then provides another video where he shows you how to activate your account.
And there we go. After using pressure tactics throughout the video and insisting that you don’t have to pay a dime, Edward now reveals that you cannot use the Orion Code system unless you pay at least $250.
THE REALITY OF THE ORION CODE
You don’t need me to tell you that the Orion Code is a complete replica of the Quantum Code.
The process is exactly the same, using different actors, the same script and a re-shoot of the original video.
Someone clearly re-invented this product…but why?
What follows is purely my opinion, but I think it will go a long way to explaining what’s going on here.
DIGGING DEEPER…
First of all, the Quantum Code website started in June 2016. Using one of my research tools, I have spotted what might have been a problem with the Quantum Code website:
In the last month, the average amount of time a visitor spends on the Quantum Code website is just 4 seconds.
This is fantastic news! It means that nearly everyone visiting the website is leaving quickly and not seeing the video through to the end and handing over money they can’t afford to lose.
I would imagine this created something of a problem for the Quantum Code team.
They bankrolled a Hollywood-style video to convince people to hand over their cash, but it looks like it didn’t work.
Why didn’t it work?
I’m guessing that it was due to the scammy style of acting in the video.
I believe the creators had no choice but to re-shoot it with different actors and perhaps a more convincing lead man. The actor playing Edward Robinson in the Orion Code video certainly appears to be more relaxed in his role.
To make this work they would also have to re-launch the program under a different name.
Using my research tools to analyze the Orion Code website, I get some interesting data on the effectiveness of their efforts:
The Orion Code website launched in August of this year, and the average visitor stay is now at over 24 minutes.
That’s a win for the people behind the product, and bad news for people who end up on their website.
Further investigation of the website reveals that it is hosted in the Netherlands. This isn’t hugely important, but it does suggest that it is being run from Europe.
HERE’S WHAT ALL THIS MEANS
I think it’s fair to say the Orion Code and the Quantum Code have been created by the same person or people.
But both programs are designed to get you to pay a minimum of $250, even though you are told it is completely free.
The creator(s) reacted very quickly when the initial Quantum Code version didn’t work. They shot a brand new video and renamed the product.
My advice would be to not give any money or your details to either the Orion Code or Quantum Code websites.
MY ORION CODE SUMMARY
There’s no getting away from the fact that online scams are very real. It truly saddens me that some people will go to such lengths to make you hand over your money.
This review is unfortunately just one example of what happens online every single day.
People do fall for scams…often because they are in desperate need of some extra cash.
Stay safe online. If you are EVER in doubt about an opportunity to make money online, check my tips on how to avoid scams online or even contact me and I will look into it for you.
I will sign off by stating the obvious one more time…
Keep your money safely in your pocket. The Orion Code will not make you rich…it’s only likely to make you poorer.

Hi Marcus,
Sad to say i fell for their scam. I gave them the 250 dollars. my biggest mistake, I should have search online first. I could not trade because they said I need to submit some of the documents like proof of billing, identification card and the debit card I used. Good thing I did not give the documents or I will be in big big trouble. Thanks for your review. I wont try trading anymore with these experience.
Hi Nads,
It’s so frustrating to hear that you have lost $250, but at the same time I am pleased that you avoided sending personal documents which, as you say, could have created an even bigger problem.
Thanks for stopping by and sharing your experiences, Nads.
All the best,
Marcus – WFHW
I so wish i had read your site sooner. Sadly we have been scammed by a company called RTC Fiance, they really make you believe you can trade and make money. W e were stupid enough to be sucked in and have lost 5,200. Im devastated but lessons learnt i will never see that again
Hi Gail,
I am so sorry to hear that you have lost so much money to this program. It’s a very unfortunate lesson to have to learn, and I hope that your online experiences are only positive from here on.
All the best,
Marcus – WFHW
Thanks for this man. I was seriously getting sucked into the well played video…
Sending you abundant blessings all the way from NZ!
Very welcome, Jave!
Yes, the video certainly is well put together. It’s such a shame they couldn’t use that high level of appeal to help people with a genuine way to generate an income online.
Thanks for stopping by, Jave :-)
All the best,
Marcus – WFHW
Hi Marcus,
I wish I had come across your review before I got lulled into the magic of making instant money online. Thankfully, I stopped when they asked me for my credit card details to hand over the $250!
But unfortunately, I had already registered my details with them including my phone number and they have NOT STOPPED calling me! I blocked their number (and all variations of it) but that only worked for a couple of weeks. Today, I started getting calls from a London number saying that I completed an application online for forex trading! I never completed such an application – it seems that the con artists at Orion Code couldn’t get my money so they sold my phone number to another online scam artist!! And now these guys won’t stop calling me!!
I feel so stupid for having given them my number and now I can’t stop them calling me. OMG! I wish there was someone I could report this to who will make them stop.
Hi Renee,
So sorry to hear that you got sucked in by the Orion Code, but glad to hear you avoided handing over any money.
Unfortunately the non-stop phone calls is standard practice with these programs. Once you enter your details you are regarded as a hot prospect, so they do all they can to follow up on that initial interaction.
In your case, I think you are right. They didn’t get anywhere by calling you so they sold your details on. This is very common within the darker side of the online world.
Please don’t feel stupid because it’s a very easy trap to fall for. Continue to blank or even block those calls until you become an ice cold lead of no value (to the scammers).
Also watch your email because that is their preferred method of reaching you with captivating wording that generally results in a ‘click’.
Be careful!
All the best,
Marcus – WFHW
Thanks so much Marcus I almost fall for this trap thank God I was broke if it wasn’t that I would be stressed by now because this people can promise you some things and they have also requested for my banking details and it was blocked from international transition and they told me to contact the service provide and request him or her to allow international transition and Thanks God again i was not having airtime and I don’t use that bank acc thanks so much for your work man
Hey Thando,
You are welcome, and I am really pleased to hear that I was able to help you here.
These people will do all they can to push you into handing your money over, so thankfully fate stepped in and prevented that from happening!
I wish you every success, Thando.
Best wishes,
Marcus – WFHW
Hello Marcus,
Jeff Gorman (actor) AKA Edward Robinson CEO and founder of ‘Orion Code’. Nearly sucked me in with the FREE talk and “some things that are too good to be true, are TRUE”.
I decided like others have reported to you to research ‘Orion Code’.
When one lives a ‘tick tock’ life high mortgage low income, one is an easy target, not because we are greedy or lazy!
Many people with family work two to three jobs to make ends meet, more often that not both parents work. Others work full time and study part-time to forge a better future financially. Others are sole parents on low-income. Too many scenarios to mention. All are desperate to escape the poverty cycle!
Bless you, and thank you, Marcus, for taking the time to research the charlatan’s that prey on vulnerable people.
Elizabeth New Zealand
You are very welcome, Elizabeth!
I absolutely agree with your thoughts here. Scam programs like The Orion Code specifically target people who are trying to make that leap out of the poverty cycle and into a more financially stable position.
I make no secret of the fact that these people sicken me with their deceptive tactics, and it makes my day every time I help someone to see the light.
I really appreciate you stopping by, Elizabeth, and I wish you every success for the future!
All the best,
Marcus – WFHW
Thanks alot chief… iam about to transfer money to orion by the mean time my mind said why dont i google edward robinson background first as he mentioned in video he is one of the guy in forbes list must be his profile in wiki or etc…than only i acknowledge its a scam for your page. Thanks alot for your effort to safe people like me. Really appreciate.
You are very welcome, Rajeshwaran!
Glad to have been of some help and I wish you every success for the future.
All the best,

Hi Marcus , thanks for youre hardwork realy citizen of the earth , I was about to be scammed too by oricon, as I was busy with detail application I had in my cellphone detail within an hour phone call came in as account manager request my credit card detail I said I don’t have one only my normal bank card, I said was only learning online trade there after 6 calls came I kept ignoring them I only told them my bank name am I safe for now?
Hi Abby,
Well done for pulling away from this when they tried their usual trick of insisting on having your credit card details.
If you only gave your name and no actual card numbers, you should be safe. That said, if you are concerned then I suggest making your bank aware just in case the Orion Code team or the actual traders somehow try to take money from your account.
All the best,
Marcus – WFHW
I ALSO GOT SCAMMED OUT OF $250, BUT WHEN THEY STARTED TO ASK FOR PERSONAL CHECKING ACCOUNT NUMBER, MY ANTENNA WENT UP AND ALSO BECAUSE I WENT TO THE WEBSITE AND COULDN’T DO ANYTHING WITH IT. BUT I HAVE LEARNED FROM MY MISTAKE.
Hi Julian,
Well done for pulling the plug before they could get their hands on any more of your money.
This just show how dangerous the Orion Code is.
I’m sorry that you lost $250 to these scammers, but at the same time pleased that you realized how dangerous Edward Robinson’s program actually is.
Thanks for stopping by, Julian. I really appreciate it!
All the best,
Marcus – WFHW
I got caught up in the video because in the 1960s when i was in the computer business had conceptualized the idea of electronic trading and computer speeds, etc. So at the end i started to sign up but stopped when they asked for credit card info! The guy in the video kept saying he would not ask for anything in return. Then i noticed that all the fine print said something about a bank in Bulgaria!
We only do business in the US said the salesman who called the next morning to find out why i hadn’t finished signing up. Told me he would send an email explaining their banking relationships! Can’t wait to see if anything shows up. Don’t worry I know a scam when I see it? It’s bad enough that they have my phone number and email. Thanks for your work in exposing this.
Bill
Well played, Bill!
The guys behind these scams are experts at extracting the essential detail they require to “max their return” from you.
Yet when they come across smart people like you, it’s a shock to their system(s). They don’t expect vigilance…just desperation.
So pleased that you have seen through the smoke. Please just be very wary of emails that come your way as a result.
They tend to threaten fines or even promise 6 figure payouts if you click. It’s ALL lies, Bill.
Don’t be fooled…stay smart ;-)
All the best,
Marcus – WFHW
Thanks all for your feedback, as I was signing up I got a call from Romeo and he say he was Italian, when I said hello in Italian he did understand what hello in Italian meant so I asked him what part of Italy are you from he could answer me properly , he said his parents are from Italy blar blar blar and never answered my question, that’s when the red flag popped up in my head . I told Romeo he was a fake and hang up. Orion code is a scam .
Thanks Marcus for this informative review. You are a gentleman.
Hi Ali,
Well that’s amazing…you managed to find someone from Italy who doesn’t speak Italian!
In all seriousness, it absolutely proves that all is not as it first seems with the Orion Code. Tricks and deception all the way.
I’m really pleased to hear that you didn’t fall for the lies, Ali, and thanks for stopping by to share you experiences with me and my readers.
All the best,
Marcus – WFHW
Hi Marcus, I realised it too lately that Orion Code is a total scam after my dad deposited USD2000 into Orion Code. The scammers used his phone number and made several calls to him. I wonder if there is anything I can do to remove his details/account?
Hi Amber,
I don’t think there’s anything you can do to remove your phone details, but in my experience they will give up calling you if they get no response.
If they have your Dad’s bank details then he needs to contact his bank and explain that he wants to prevent any more money being paid to these people. That way your Dad’s account is protected.
In addition, be very wary of any emails that your Dad receives from the Orion Code team.
I’ve received numerous emails from them stating the I have $10,000 waiting. The following day an email said I will be fined over $40,000 if I don’t log into my account.
There’s no truth in any emails like this. They are simply tricking you into logging into your account and paying over more money.
Completely ignore all emails from them and be careful.
All the best,
Marcus – WFHW
Hi there Marcus,
I am so thankfully I came across your review here after I’ve done some research to see if this Orion Code is a scam or not. Thanks for spending all your time trying to safe poeple like us from falling in such traps that will only give us more headache and stress especially in this time of Christmas season. You’re an angel.
Just wanna ask if both Banc de Binary and UFX a genuine or not? have you, by any chance, come across these two trading businesses?
Thanks again Marcus
Hi Jifung,
You are very welcome, and I am pleased to hear I was able to help you avoid the Orion Code scam.
Regarding Banc de Binary and UFX, I have not looked at these programs yet but will add them to my binary options list for review early in 2017.
Thanks for stopping by, Jifung, and I wish you all the best for Christmas and the New Year!
Marcus – WFHW
Hi Marcus: I tried to pay these guys the $250.00. However when I hit the “make a deposit” button. It asked me for $350.00. So I tried again and the transaction didn’t go through, however I then received an email that i needed to contact my credit card services and let them know that I was trying to make an “international investment”, that is when the red flag went up for me. You don’t think they will try and use my information in an unethical way do you?
Hi Franklin,
So pleased to hear that you were able to avoid handing the Orion Code any of your money.
To be absolutely sure, I suggest contacting your credit company and making them aware of what’s happened.
They will then advise on the best course of action going forward. Some often suggest that they will issue a new card. Either way, it’s best to be safe than sorry.
All the best,
Marcus – WFHW
Like so many other people who have written to you I was Scammed by “Edward Robinson”
After funding his “Designated Broker” to the tune of $250 I found they won’t accept any funding less than $500. So that’s what they hit me for.
Their trick is they never allow you to access their “software” so that you can start “trading”. They accomplish this by claiming that they can’t release the software to you UNTIL you fund your account. They refuse to acknowledge that this account with THEIR DESIGNATED BROKER has already been funded to an amount twice what they claimed was necessary.
In my naïveté I’ve spent the better part of a month trying to reconcile what turns out to be a DELIBERATE PROBLEM. Finally I issued an ultimatum “respond to my e-mail within 48 hours or I’m out”. Their response was to completely block my access to their website.
At the moment my Credit Card Company has put a hold on the charges to me and their Security Division is attacking the problem to get the payment rescinded. Now you wanna hear how smart I am. I responded to two of these SCAMS. This one for $500 and the other one for $250. There’s no place on this planet that’s far enough away from these guys to be “Safe”.
Finally, I’m 6’8″ tall and weigh 285 Lbs. and if I weren’t 82 yrs old you can guess what mayhem I would visit on these guys if I could find them. To put another way, one round with me and Edward would have to back up 3 miles to smile.
For your reference here are the names involved in my lunacy.
Edward Robinson. CEO The Orion Code
Brandon Lewis, CEO Gemini Holdings
Rick, thanks so much for stopping by and sharing your experiences with Edward Robinson’s Orion Code.
First of all, I am really sorry to hear that you were duped by this program. I have received similar emails from my visitors about being locked out unless they added more funds, so I guess that is the way these guys are tricking people out of their money.
It is truly sickening to think that people are actually succeeding in stealing money from people in this way.
My own personal hope when I write a review about programs like this is that people spread the word so that as many people as possible know about these scammers. I want people to be informed.
I can well imagine what you would do to these guys, Rick, and it’s completely understandable when you consider how they are affecting people’s lives.
Thanks once again for telling us about your experiences. I wish you well, Rick, and hope that you are able to avoid any similar program in the future.
All the best,
Marcus – WFHW
Thanks for your advice. Got involved in the same thing.
Luckily my account was closed.
You are welcome, Maurice.
It’s great to hear that you were able to escape from the Orion Code web of lies.

Glad it helped!
Marcus – WFHW
Hi,
I have submitted my master card details,in short all details requested submitted,what is going to happen to my bank account?
Hi Samson,
I suggest contacting Mastercard and checking if any amounts have been taken. If so, ask them to block any further unauthorized payments from your account.
You might also want to contact the broker that you joined when starting the process and asking for them for a full refund.
I hope this helps,
Marcus – WFHW
