So heres the deal. Apparently another board uses a “sponsor” Janoshik that all they do is test anabolics and compounds. They try to push themselves as a legal research company out of Slovakia. Now for those that dont know, testing eqiupment is extremely expensive. Its not something the average people could afford. Much less someone claiming to test raws for 60 euros a test.
Eastern europe is a very poor area. Often using outdated information. But home to many scammers. Now Janoshik claims to be legit.
So before we look at the company website, lets look at the history of the site and what they claim.
Enter:

Now thankfully someone last year saved the about information. Because it contains some important information about this scam and the legitimacy of the “sponsor”. Now I took a screen of the important info to look at from that page.
So first off the site footer showed a copyright date of 2013 before the site existed. It didnt come into existence until 2016. But more important is the contact us information. First they list themselves as and s.r.o. which is a form of a corporation for those that dont know. Much like an LLC.
Lets look at that first for Slovakia. You can follow along here. Business Register of the Slovak Republic on Internet - searching by business name
Now I searched for both the name as it appeared there, and looking for any business named Janoshik registered in Slovakia. Results: 0
Hmm so its not registered as they claimed back in 2017 on their site, now lets google earth that address listed.
Well it is a facility… a official facility.
No back to the site. the updated site they removed the footer and all the info on the bottom.
Its saved here for reference to the changes: http://archive.is/TKDzI
But if a “company” can afford all this expensive testing equipment they claim to have, surely they had their website done from scratch like most research firms. Wait. No… free website template from here:
You can view this in the source code of the site.
At least they must have put their business when registering the domain…
Nope. Thats fake too, they didnt even bother to pay $4 extra for the whois privacy on the domain.
So what we have here is someone that claims to have all this expensive equipment. No proof of owning anything. Lists fake information and addresses all over the site. Goes in fact to list a fake company on their site and remove it later.
So for now Im calling it out as a scam with all the dishonesty and false info they themselves listed. Obviously they couldnt even tell the truth on other things what makes anyone believe they can tell the truth about steroid analysis?
As someone extremely familiar with Eastern Europe, no legit company will test raws for 60 euros…and give the kind of the breakdown they claim. I have also reached out to the companies they say supplied them their equipment since they linked their websites on their own. Will update if either company responds with any knowledge of a legit business.
As with everything, be careful what and who you “trust” online as there are alot of people that would scam others in this industry. Tests can faked. Reports faked. There are some legit people out there, but not always.
Edit: Just saw an actual “report” from them and thats fake as fuck free template shit…
Edit 2: Ok so this is a little longer. I found him on reddit and hes some 4chan kid that is most likely college age as he claims to be a web developer (well his site is shit as we know lol) claims to be a bad developer tho. Also claims to be self taught doing analysis for 6 years but studying medicine and bought his machine in his teens. Some other interesting things about him and his post history. Again archived as they can be deleted later and I feel its important to understand who and what kind of this person is.
He also tried to start his own reddit community for steroid reviews and sources. never got more then 8 subscribers.
Edit 3. Janoshik after notification of this thread has started to delete all his reddit history and statements. https://www.reddit.com/user/janoshik
