Unauthorised Firm Details

Name: Gracedesalpes.ca
Website: gracedesalpes.ca

The website gracedesalpes.ca presents itself as part of a global business-community named “GRACE” (standing for Generosity, Respect, Authenticity, Coherence, Engagement) under a brand called DesAlpes LLC (or sometimes “Des Alpes”). The site claims to offer “a unique opportunity to generate additional income for the rest of your life” through membership. gracedesalpes.ca+2brokerwatchdog.com+2 Key “benefits” listed on the site include:

• “You have nothing to sell.”

• A one-time payment (between US $145 and US $225) for “life time” exclusive privileges.

• A compensation structure purportedly enabling income from US $100 to US $1,000,000 per month.

• A claim that “100% of our earnings are distributed to ALL our members.”

The business model appears to rely heavily on recruitment, member payments, discounted buying or “privileges”, and promises of income from others’ participation.

Warning Alert

1. Unregistered/unauthorized status

   • The Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) in Québec has formally warned that “DesAlpes LLC … is not registered … and is not authorized to solicit investors in Québec.” The warning explicitly lists gracedesalpes.ca as one of the associated websites.

   • The Alberta Securities Commission (ASC) also added DesAlpes LLC to its Investment Caution List, stating that “the following websites have been associated …: gracedesalpes.ca …”

2. Multiple red-flags in operational patterns

   • Analysts highlight that gracedesalpes.ca is very new (domain registration June 2025) and uses free email contact addresses, which can be signs of increased risk.

   • Several consumer-watch websites identify typical scam signals: vague business model, heavy emphasis on recruitment and income rather than concrete products or services, unrealistic income promises, high upfront payment.

   • Reported patterns include difficulties withdrawing, changing terms late, evasive support – all behaviors often associated with pyramid/Mlm-style or fraudulent platforms. Azcane Limited

3. Marketing claims vs actual transparency

   • The site claims large scale global registrations (“over 2,500 registrations a day worldwide”) but provides minimal verifiable evidence of tangible operations, products, or independent audits.

   • The model appears to emphasize recruitment and lifetime membership fees over traditional product sales, which can align with the definition of a pyramid scheme in many jurisdictions.

Risk assessment

• Regulatory risk: High. The business is operating without registration or authorization in jurisdictions where it is actively promoted.

• Transparency risk: High. The site lacks clear audited operations, credible product lines, or verifiable management disclosure.

• Income promise risk: High. Income claims are broad and not supported by independent evidence; such promises are common in high-risk models.

• Financial safety risk: High. Without regulatory protections or independent oversight, funds contributed may be difficult to recover if things go wrong.

Conclusion

The website gracedesalpes.ca presents a membership/affiliation business model promising high earnings and lifetime benefits for a one-time payment. However, it is linked to an unregistered entity (DesAlpes LLC) that is the subject of formal warnings by Canadian securities regulators. The model shows many characteristics of high-risk ventures: minimal transparency, broad income claims, and reliance on recruitment and membership fees rather than traditional product sales.
