Two pyramid scheme victims

20 Glimpses Into The Lives Of Pyramid Scheme Victims

There are a lot of victims of pyramid schemes out there, from the sellers to the buyers of various nonsensical products. At the same time, there are a lot of people who buy into the theory that they could make hundreds of thousands of dollars as a "business owner" if they join in on an MLM, and will try to convince everyone they know that they can, too, because roping more people into the scheme is often the most profitable part of the business. There are lots of people out there who have had enough of these MLMs, and have gone on to share some of their wildest interactions with MLM "employees" as a warning for everyone else.

The following images will give you a glimpse into the lives of pyramid scheme victims, from people investing thousands of dollars into selling essential oils to annoying recruiters who won't take "no" for an answer. It's surprising that so many people are keeping these MLMs going, but somehow, they do, and once in a while, we could all use a reminder to ignore those weird DMs we get from people advertising something. Here are just 20 of those reminders.

Good question

r/AmltheAsshole AITA for helping my friend get a job? I (135) convinced my best friend (125) to join the business I was in. Lets call her Sarah. I explained to her that we could make a lot of money and be our own bosses by selling various household items. She was skeptical at first, but I managed to persuade her by showing her how much I had already made and telling her that this was the perfect opportunity for us to be financially free. Sarah quit her job to focus on the business full-time, just like I did. We attended all the meetings and events together and were both convinced that we were going to be successful. However, Sarah just wasn't good at it. She struggled to make sales. No matter how hard she tried she just lacked the charisma needed to make it and was too worried about bothering her family by asking them to buy. She eventually fell behind on rent and was evicted from her apartment. She had nowhere to go and ended up living on the streets. Even then, she still believed in the business and thought that she just needed to work harder to make it work but has now decided that it is my fault she lost everything. Our other friends are calling me an a e and saying I'm the reason she and her kid are homeless Looking back, I don't feel much remorse for what happened to Sarah. I was just trying to help her, it's not my fault that she couldn't make it work. I am sorry she is in a rough situation but she could have been more committed and worked harder. So, AITA for getting my friend the job of her dreams?

Another fake friendship

Hi - I didn't realize that you were recruiting me for Amway. I had never been recruited for any MLM before and didn't understand the tactics. I was excited to get to know you, but now I just feel used and foolish. I used my time this evening to do my own research on Amway and MLMs. So truly you've given me a gift in some way as I will be much more cautious with strangers who act like they want to be my friend. I will not be meeting with you again but wish you well. Wow.. I'm sorry you feel that way no pressure at all to meet with me again. I was genuine in everything I shared with you today and I apologize if something I said caused you not to trust me. I'd appreciate the opportunity to get my book back please. When is good for you?

Or/wedding 8m Desperate Bride Seeking Advice: Makeup Artist Refusing to Use Younique Products on Bridesmaids? Help! Hey Reddit, I'm feeling incredibly frustrated and upset, and I need some advice regarding a recent conflict I've encountered with my professional makeup artist. I hope you can help shed some light on this situation and offer guidance on how to resolve it. Background: I am getting married in a few months, and I happen to be a brand ambassador for Younique. Now, I understand that everyone has their preferences when it comes to makeup, but I genuinely believe in the quality of Younique products and want to showcase them at my wedding. The Issue: I hired a highly skilled professional makeup artist for my big day, thinking she would be open to using the Younique makeup products on my bridesmaids. However, she seemed visibly upset and insisted on using high-end brands like Dior, Huda Beauty, Givenchy, or Make Up For Ever. To my surprise, she insisted on modifying her contract to "not guarantee the longevity and performance" of the makeup if we proceed with my Younique products - what?!? I'm utterly confused and hurt by her reaction. I genuinely believe in the quality and effectiveness of Younique products, and I want my bridesmaids to experience them too. But now, I can't help but feel like she's judging me for being so passionate about the brand I know and trust Why is she so upset at Younique makeup? Is it really bad? Should I be concerned? To make matters worse. I had planned to set up a displav
