lovelife22 0 #1 February 11, 2004 So, I met up with an old friend the other night. She wanted to tell me all about her "new job". Which basically promises her retirement in 3 years?!?! The 3 C's stand for, Content, Commerce, Community. It's all about building a community of internet shoppers and getting paid for it...at least, that was my take. She asked me to be a part of her "community" of shoppers. You receive a check every month...but it all depends on how many people you've got in the community. Anyone heard of this? It sounds like a scam, but she is completly swept away by this??? it's crazy!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nightingale 0 #15 February 12, 2004 they can be illegal EVEN IF they sell stuff. It depends on whether they are encouraging consumers outside the pyramid to buy stuff, or if they pretty much just recruit others to join the pyramid. http://www.co.santa-cruz.ca.us/da/pyramid.htm http://www.commerce.state.ut.us/dcp/education/pyramid.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
