The Truth

So, if you have managed to stumble across this blog, then you have been searching for information behind Shane Craig, and his failure / scam of a company called XiS IT, after a little digging, It has been discovered that this person behind it, has changed his name to Cheyne Jonstone, Director of Webhosting company which has been called COVE, IntraIP, and VentraIP.

XiS IT is currently in Liquidation after the company failed, and many people had lost money to their scam. You can find the ABN for the Liquidated Company HERE.

A quick search on Whirlpool, which is where they gained a fair amount of their customers will show many of the different things which happened with XiS, including a fair number of customers who lost all their money, without receiving anything in return.

A few ones of Interest can be found HERE, HERE, and you can find a message from the Owner of Whirlpool HERE.

Upon searching through for the companies details, it has come out that the name of both of these persons Shane Kenneth Craig, and Cheyne Jonstone are linked on the ABN, however Shane Kenneth Craig has not been seen or heard of for a fair few years.

You can find the ABN information HERE.

When this information was unearthed, a search was done via ASIC, which has unearthed the following birth information.

SHANE KENNETH , CRAIG
Born: 06 Apr 1982 - NEWCASTLE , NSW
Appointed Date: 06 Sep 2001
Ceased Date: 19 Dec 2004

Alone, it does little to show you any correlation between the two people, apart from how their names sound the same when said aloud, and that the name Ceased within months of XiS going into Liquidation. However, once you see Cheyne Jonstones information, it becomes clear.

CHEYNE JONSTONE
Born: 06/04/1982 - NEWCASTLE NSW
Appointment Date: 24/09/2007

These two names, which both appear to have identical birthdates, and location of birth, not to mention appear on the ABN information for the same company makes a fairly clinchable link to eachother. Not to mention, you also can find ABN 28 478 738 765 Is currently under "Cheyne Jonstones" name, and it contains both his previous persona, and the company entity name.

Then of course, comes the other link between VentraIP, COVE and XiS.

A search via ASIC shows that a common Director/Shareholder of all 3 companies happens to also exist.
