is this a pyramid scheme

mukki

i was over fixing a pc for a guy, and he started raving about this miracle drink from thailand that is curing all sorts of diseases, and he is importing it and re-selling it in ireland

but he went on about how much money can be made from reselling this stuff, and that he got a few lads that are reselling it for him, and that the guy put him onto it that is making about 10k a month.


no more mention of the drink itself just talk about how much money can be made from selling it, he never offer me any and i am sure he didn't want me to buy some of it from him


I had no interest, but just curious, are pyramid schemes still going on all around us, but just getting harder to police?

Maybe, maybe not...

what's the name of the miracle drink?

mukki

not sure, but i googled the doctor he mentioned, and the doctor mentions xango a lot

and xango tends to be sold by MLM

mulit level marketing, seem to be where, you buy it off a guy, who buys it off a guy, and then you can sell it on, or convincing someone that there is a lot of money to be made selling it, so they sell it on for you


maybe the drink is good for you, but i really dont care

so yeah, its a pyramid scheme




god, its bad enough that this guy fell for this scam, but to try to convice others to fall for it is just evil

MLM and pyramid schemes are two distinctly different things. The Subway chain of sandwhich bars are based on MLM. pyramid schemes are typically charecterised by having no descerinible product. Most MLM stuff seems to be codswallop though. i wouldn't go near it. unless of course this drink has snake oil in it!?
