Mohammad Helakouei, Iranian Dream Seller
Over the past four years, the wave of global interest in cryptocurrency has expanded significantly. Iran didn’t fall behind this wave, and people quickly sought information about crypto. When the people of a country ride a wave and are eager to learn, especially in matters involving money, a series of swindlers and dream sellers enter the scene.
Mohammad Helakouei is one of these wave riders. Initially, he established an Instagram page and a Telegram channel, providing information related to cryptocurrency for free to his audience. But after realizing how thirsty people were for this market, he changed his approach.

turned to dream selling with packages. In the first packages he released, he collected all the information from the internet, categorized it, and published it as packages. Selling packages is not a crime in any country, but dream selling is a dirty and inhumane act. Phrases like ‘Get rich by buying this package,’ ‘Learn how to earn dollars,’ ‘Get rich with a few clicks.’
However, these phrases have become outdated, and now dream sellers use new methods. One of these methods is creating so-called luxury videos. For instance, a Maserati or Porsche is shown in the video, and the package seller enters a luxury villa with this car, and you see the person getting out from the cameras of drones. Then, only one sentence is said, ‘If you also want to have this car and villa by next year, purchase our package.’
Mohammad Helakouei: From Selling Dreams to Collaborating in Fraud
Helakouei creates his new packages with professional equipment and a team. An office full of large monitors displaying crypto market charts, and traders all wearing ties, very chic and neatly trading in front of the systems.
A few months after the death of Mahsa Amini and the start of widespread protests in Iran, Helakouei established a satellite network in the field of cryptocurrency and is engaged in selling packages and supposedly teaching through this channel.
Helakouei has also collaborated in token sales with individuals notorious in this field but has tried not to make his name too prominent in the token sales area. Recently, Helakouei has indirectly supported the Oppo token. The owner of this token is someone named Sina TG, who is a friend of Helakouei and has gained a high number of followers due to being promoted by Mohammad Helakouei.
Helakouei, along with the owners of this project, participated in the international event BMC 2022 and has close collaborations with them. Now, Oppo claims to have created a broker and is busy emptying people’s pockets through this means.
