> Well no creepy feelings here and positivly OVERWHELMED with excitement!!!! folks this works. It is a legitimate business. The company has an excellent product that has given me the tools needed to be successful. Some people that become distributors has an influence and experience to generate $51,000. As far as I am concerned most people would like to complain more and stay in there comfort zone. If you continue to live in your past with the old tapes saying This is a Pyrimid scheme (which is ilegal) dont you think after 2 1/2 years in business that this business would be shut down by now. Bottom line is if you dont due your own checking and rely on here say from people that really dont know what they are talking about then I really feel sorry for you. What if it really does work but until you do your own checking you will probably miss a lot of open doors to opportunities that could make a difference in your lives.
and I was positively OVERWHELMED with a creepy sense of deja vu.

| PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT. It has been done before, but never successfully. In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace. NEWS FLASH: I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday. I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish. I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?). I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures. Although we may, from time to time, monitor or review discussions, postings and the like on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, we are under no obligation to do so.

In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact. And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!). |
