Nevada denies TelexFree telecom license

TelexFree applied for Nevada telecom license on April 1st, 2014 (apparently not a joke), then declared bankruptcy on April 12, 2014 (okay, now it's a joke). Since then it's been raided, co-owner arrested, another ran for homeland of Brazil, and TelexFree 8 charged with fraud.

Due to the tortoise speed of bureaucracy, it took till now for Nevada to deny the TelexFree telecom license, stating that due to the bankruptcy application, the financial numbers provided with the application cannot be trusted.
