Preliminary inquiries under way into SIM card registration as questions mount over who is operating the number
Bali, Indonesia — A mobile number used in promotional material for LUX Property Group, the Bali property business founded by Australian promoter Jamie Neville McIntyre, has been traced through a legal records check to a Bali resident who died in late 2025. The same number appears as the listed contact on a network of public Facebook pages operating under the “Poseidon” name, which publish allegations against named individuals.
Preliminary inquiries are now examining source data from the mobile provider, including the SIM card’s registration history, to establish how a number associated with a deceased person remains active and who has been using it.
The number and the “Poseidon” pages
The “Poseidon” pages present themselves as investigations into business figures in Indonesia and the wider region. They are publicly accessible on Facebook and list the number as their point of contact. Several individuals named on the pages reject the allegations made against them as false and defamatory.
The pages carry no identifiable author, registered organisation or verifiable investigative credentials. Their use of a contact number that traces to a deceased person raises further questions about who is behind them.
LUX Property Group promotions
The same number has appeared in material promoting LUX Property Group and its Bali and Lombok villa offerings to prospective investors. LUX Property Group has marketed developments under a series of project names, and Jamie Neville McIntyre is publicly identified as its founder.
Investors contacted through this number would have had no way of knowing it was registered to someone who had passed away. The overlap between a number used to promote LUX Property Group investments and a number used to run anonymous pages targeting individuals is one of the central questions inquiries are expected to address.
Allegations involving Shane Leonard Reynolds
It has been alleged that Shane Leonard Reynolds, who is understood to work with Jamie Neville McIntyre, has been involved in operating the number. The provider’s records are expected to help establish whether that allegation is supported, including when the SIM was registered, under whose identity, and whether its registration changed after the resident’s death.
Shane Leonard Reynolds, Jamie Neville McIntyre and LUX Property Group have been invited to respond.
Why SIM registration matters
Indonesian regulations require every SIM card to be registered against the holder’s national identity number (NIK) and family card. A number registered to one person but operated by another, particularly after that person’s death, points to either misuse of identity data or an unauthorised transfer of the SIM.
Cases of Indonesians’ identity details being used to register SIM cards without their knowledge have been reported in recent years. The practice is frequently associated with fraud, anonymous harassment and attempts to avoid accountability, because it breaks the link between a number and the person actually using it.
For investors, the implication is simple: a contact number on a promotional brochure or social media page is no guarantee of who is on the other end.
The deceased resident
The resident’s death was reported at the time as an accident, and there is no suggestion that it is connected to the use of the number. Out of respect for her family, she is not being named, and no further personal details are being released. Her family has had no involvement in the matters described.
Advice for investors approached by LUX Property Group
Anyone who has been contacted about property investments through this number, or who has dealt with LUX Property Group or Jamie Neville McIntyre, is encouraged to take basic precautions before transferring any funds. These include verifying the legal entity named in any contract, confirming the land title and the registered landowner through official channels, checking the developer’s actual rights over the land, and keeping copies of all messages, brochures and payment records.
Anyone who has been named or targeted on the “Poseidon” Facebook pages is encouraged to preserve screenshots, including dates and URLs, as these may be relevant to the inquiries now under way.
What happens next
The inquiries into the SIM card’s source data remain at a preliminary stage. Once the provider’s records are obtained, they are expected to form the basis of a formal complaint to Indonesian authorities. Further updates will follow as the investigation progresses.
