There has been a lot of buzz going on about a program which can get you rich quickly. The target of this scam are the people who have Typical American Dreams. This scam has been going on for a few years now. I just want to let everyone be aware of it.

The way the program is structured is that people are invited to well organized meetings in Hotels etc. to give initial impression that the program works. Well suited people with smiling faces and big buzz words like business model, products, Dell, Hotmail, Microsoft, etc etc. People tell others that the thing works and how much he has been working.

Then they propose the people to join their business and enroll as a member. That would cost him some money. He will not earn anything right then, he then has to go to his friends and other people and invite them to join the business like he did. When they enroll he gets money and after a number of enrollment he gets to promoted and he starts earning real money.

During that period he has to purchase stuffs worth of hundreds of dollars per month in order to maintain his membership. The stuffs are regular household stuffs so the arguement is that why not invest in your own business?? sounds good. The trick is that you are to purchase stuffs from the store, thus get a discount for yourself.

This is a scam for 3 reasons.

Firstly It forms a pyramid structure, because you have to pay to enroll in the structure and make others pay for enrollment under you of which you are getting comission, thus form a pyramid structure. This is an old scam and is classified illegal in US.

Secondly you are made to purchase limited stuffs from subsidiary companies, for example you are forced to purchse stuffs from the store which is limited to a few products which are not the best ones. You are forced to purchase products like energy drinks, other household stuffs whose name you would never have heard. You are made to purchase the product.


Thirdly you have to purchase stuffs for hundreds of dollars, from the store, in order to maintain the membership. This is a forced purchase. You do not have liberty to choose.


I have come across these people in a lot of places, they approach personallly so that you have illusion of confidence that it works. They typically start conversation like introduction and what they do.... Then they open the topic that they have a side business of which they are successful and they are seeking people who can invest a little bit of time which inturn could yeld a permanent source of income for the rest of my life. Sounded interensting. They invite to their impressive meetings, usually very professional looking, in big hotel, lot of celebrity look-a-like people. Talk about business, and stuffs. But what they basically intend to communicate is that get in the boat and we will make you work your lifetime with dreams which will never come true. They will keep feeding for like $250 a month just to keep my membership. Then I go to other friends of mine ask them to join this business, make them pay like $200 for membership of which I will get $50, and 5% of whatever that friend buys from the store to maintain his membership.

Intersting huh. I found it too. The points they stress, are very smart. They say remove middlemen and give example of Dell. They mention purchase of Hotmail by microsoft and talk bout that indian guy whoever formed hotmail. Then they talk about amazon, because their store is like Amazon.com. The worst part is that their store is open to the members only, so you have to be member to be rich, and die trying. keep buying stuffs to make the founders richer. They often mention the founder's welth of billions. Really smart .........

Any ways Nepalese be smart and try to work hard. Dont dream of getting rich overnight you will be caught in such traps and will never be able to get out, or the only way out is put some one else in this trap.
