No. The language you found mentioning "pinmo" is Danish, but pinmo is not
a Danish word. This, however, is in English: "I'm a Danish journalist 
presently working on a case where several Danes and Norwegians claim 
to have been lured by a Danish citezen Mogens Christensen,  who is 
working with a so called Children foundation in Thailand called
PinMo. The Danes and Norwegians filed a fraud report yesterday at 
the Royal Danish Embassy in Bangkok."

Ceqli is a constructed language, very well-known in the conlang
community (where "conlang" stands for "constructed language").
It was invented by Rex May:

The other one, at www.vojir.com, is not a language. It is
complete gibberish. Load a page and do a  word count, 
you'll see why:
