This reminds me of how my friend is always trying to recruit me for his Wake Up Now scheme.

I just googled that.... it looks...interesting, lol. 

 

Basically, anything where you start your own "business" like that is a scam. It is where less than 1% do well and the rest somehow become in debt to the company. 

 

I would rather invest my money.

Re: Duped into pyramid Scheme

I've had a few friends get into this pyramid crap and they all 'buy my way in'. lol. The latest one was my old roommate (who is very successful manager in his own right) got into a classified ad posting pyramid. Costs $20 to get in, and you repost the ads they want you to 3-5 times a day across craigslist and other sites. And I guess after a month you can make a couple hundred. And if you recruit someone you make a share of theirs. 

 

I never posted any ads. Or logged into my account he paid for me to even start. Thanks roommate, haven't heard anything about that in about a year and he isn't driving a new Lambo yet. haha. 

 

"its not a pyramid though..."
