Due Diligence? What's That?

Seriously, if you want to avoid getting involved with an MLM scam, you need to ask a few questions right up front - BEFORE you sign up and set-up your three business centers and autoship plan. But you're a busy guy, and who's got the time to wait around for the answers? Besides, you want to get into this new program at the TOP!

The WWSN understands. So we're going to show you a few quick and easy "Rules of Thumb" that we have found to be very reliable in identifying an MLM scam.

1. Does their product line utilize any sort of Star Trek science and New Age technology?

Watch for buzz words and technobabble such as "Nanotechnology", "Holograms", "Vibrational Frequency Technology", "Solutomic and Aqueous Technologies", "Negative Field Activation", "Structured Water" and "Quantum Physics". These people will muddy the waters with hundreds of testimonials and confusing, convoluted, and unsubstantiated scientific papers written by the fringe and quack element of the scientific community.

2. Has the company, product, promoters or founders been featured on the "Network Marketing Business Journal"?

We call this publication "Money Losers Monthly" because nearly every company they promote turns out to be a scam. And this should not surprise anyone, since feature articles for "Company of the Month" and "Product of the Month" and the rest are all for sale by owner Keith Laggos (recently convicted of SEC violations). For more on this racket, see our report on "MoneyLosersMonthly.com". Here's an excellent example of a high profile company associate who purchased his OWN "Company of the Month" vanity piece and used it to flagrantly abuse rule of thumb number three:

September Company of the Month
3. Do web sites, conferences calls, and conventions showcase people supposedly earning incredible incomes and walking around with huge checks?

The FTC does not take kindly to this sort of recruitment hype. For more info see Rod Cook and the "MLM Watchdog" web site where he explains:
WHAT MAKES EARNINGS CLAIMS ILLEGAL?

"...they must be prevented from bandying about high earnings achieved by a minority of purchasers with no indication of the unrepresentativeness of such earnings."

If your company is parading around a giddy group of giant checks with legs, they are engaging in ILLEGAL ACTIVITY and should be avoided.

So there you have it. Scam Spotting 101. These three fundamental bad MLM red flags have served the WWSN well over the past ten years. Learn them - use them - and avoid them.
