India can hold back 'MLM income opportunity' racketeering.

All so called 'MLM direct selling schemes' are unlawful in the Indian Republic under common-sense criminal legislation dating from 1978:

The Prize Chits and Money Circulation Schemes (Banning) Act. 


http://indiankanoon.org/doc/1621737/






Currently, in the wake of the of the boss of 'Amway India Enterprises', William S. Pinckney, being arrested under the PCMC Act in Andhra Pradesh, the agents of US-based 'MLM income opportunity' racketeers have been doing everything they can to trivialize these events in an attempt to have so-called 'MLM' companies placed above the law in India.



Officers of the so-called 'Indian Direct Selling Association' have already infiltrated state and national government in India, trying to tamper with proposed new technical legislation (ostensibly designed to replace the role of the police and the PCMC Act  in protecting the Indian public from dissimulated pyramid and Ponzi schemes) by redefining so-called 'MLM Direct Selling income opportunities' as automatically legal because they involve products. Thus, attempting to have so-called 'MLM' treated as an entirely separate issue to pyramid and Ponzi schemes, in the Indian Republic.




The proposed new Indian legislation already contains the familiar, vague and essentially-meaningless definition of 'direct selling' (referring to 'customers' and 'end users') which has obviously come from 'MLM' racketeers in the USA.

What has been required for a very long time (not just in India, but all around the globe), is a universal, accurate, common-sense, legal definition of what constitutes an economically-viable direct selling scheme, and which cannot be tampered with by the agents of racketeers or misinterpreted by amoral attorneys.

Thus, vague, and essentially meaningless, terms such as 'customers' and 'end users,' cannot be employed in any accurate definition of lawful direct selling, because these words can be taken to mean the direct sellers themselves in an economically unviable closed market.

A lawful direct selling scheme can only be one sponsored by persons who can immediately provide quantifiable evidence (on demand), that their scheme has ultimately always derived the overwhelming majority of its revenue via its salaried, and/or non-salaried, commission agents regularly retailing products, and/or services, to the general public for a profit (based on value and demand).

Common-sense should reveal to any honest law enforcement agent, legislator or judge, that any alleged 'direct selling scheme' which does not fit the above accurate definition, and which has been offering economically-incestuous commission payments to its own agents on their own purchases, and on the purchases of these agents' own recruits, and on the purchases of the recruits of these recruits, etc. ad infinitum, is a dissimulated closed-market swindle or pyramid scheme without a significant, or sustainable, source of revenue other than its own losing participants, and which, therefore, has been obstructing justice by laundering unlawful losing investment payments (based on the false expectation of future reward) simply by arbitrarily, and falsely, defining these transactions as: 'sales to customers and end users'.

In any alleged 'direct selling scheme,' if products, and/or services have not been regularly retailed to the general public (based on value and demand), then they might as well not exist. This why I usually refer to them as 'wampum.'

  1. Just out of interest David, why can't someone who is a distributor also be a customer/end user of the products they are selling?

    1. Anonymous - Your question is beside the point, because it's not the fact that participants in so-called 'MLM income opportunities' are buying products, and/or services, from themselves which makes this activity economically unviable, and unlawful, On the contrary, it's the underlying reason why particpants are handing over their money to the instigators of these schemes, which makes this activity economically unviable and unlawful.

    2. Which law states that you cannot buy products for your own use?

    3. Anonymous - I will treat this question as serious, but if you think you are going to be allowed to waste my time by ignoring my detailed responses, by continuing to ask essentially the same question, you can think again.

      Self-evidently, Indian criminal law does not prohibit people from buying products and/ or services for their own use, what it does prohibit is criminals charlatans persuading ill-informed people to keep buying effectively-unsaleable products, and or /services, by telling them the lie that, by doing so and by recruiting others to do the same, ad infinitum, they can earn money.

    4. I'm not wasting anyone's time, I only asked because in your first sentence you posted that ''it was unviable and unlawful to buy products from yourself''. I'm happy to see that in your second reply you've corrected that. Of course its not unlawful to buy products for your own use.....this is what every distributor should be doing as how else would they be able to recommend them to others? Most distributors of course don't recommend the products or the business to others and this is why they earn nothing, or do you think they should be earning a bonus merely for being a customer?

    5. Anonymous - You are wasting my time, because what you have just claimed :

      '...in your first sentence you posted that ''it was unviable and unlawful to buy products from yourself''

      is a puerile lie.

      What I actually said, which apparently you are incapable of reading (let alone comprehending), was:

      '...it's not the fact that participants in so-called 'MLM income opportunities' are buying products, and/or services, from themselves which makes this activity economically unviable, and unlawful, On the contrary, it's the underlying reason why particpants are handing over their money to the instigators of these schemes, which makes this activity economically unviable and unlawful.

      The rest of you comment, is typical, reality-inverting 'MLM income opportunity.' popaganda which seeks to pretend that people are falling over themselves to buy 'MLM' wampum for no other reason than they wish to use it.

      This is another puerile lie.

      You are, therefore, warned (as are all other commentators) that reality-inverting 'MLM income opportunity' propaganda will not be posted on ' "MLM" The American Dream Made Nightmare,' without detailed qualification or heavy irony.

  2. Despite my warning, 'Anonymous' now insists:

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    'I have many customers who only buy products from an MLM company because they wish to and so do I. Thankfully the authorities in the vast majority of countries in the world, discounting a few 3rd world and communist countries with corrupt governments, know this goes on too. MLM is growing fast and a little uninformed blog like yours isn't going to stop it. Your knowledge and the reality seem to be miles apart.'

    -------------------------------------------------------

    To which I say, 'Anonymous' - you are a typical 'MLM' liar with nothing (not even your given name) to back up your anecdotal claims.

    Currently, William S. Pinckney is languishing in an Indian jail for telling essentially the same, absurd, financial fairy story which you have attempted to post. Perhaps you are frightened that you might soon be joining him?

    Currently, 'Herbalife' is under federal investigation in the USA, because it's bosses have been telling essentially the same, absurd, financial fairy story which you have attempted to post.
