Anyone remember Amway
I had a friend who was recruited into this and she persuaded me to go to a presentation.
The idea was you got a percentage for selling products but you were better off recruiting others to sell as you got a percentage of what they made ( 10% springs to mind ) and of course when they recruited and got their own team you made even more, and if you reached level 7 you'd be making £10,000 a month
I saw through it quite easily as an example
level 1 you
level 2 10 sellers you recruit
level 3 100 they recruit
level 4 1000 they recruit
level 5 10000 they recruit
level 6 100000 they recruit
level 7 1 million they recruit
So now you have 1,111,111 people selling basically at the point the whole thing falls over as not enough people not in the scheme to sell to to make any profit.
but you had people falling over themselves to sign up and buy the "sample" packs
