MLM Internet Mall Scam Shutdown By California AG Edmund Brown

MLM Internet Scams, from online shopping malls, to reverse auction companies seem to be attracting some good people who are looking for additional income streams during this current Recession.

Big Co-op Inc dba Ez2Win.Biz, based out of California, was shut down, when Edmond G. Brown, A.G. of California, arrested it’s flamboyant owners.

The California A.G. has taken off the gloves when it comes to cleaning up purported MLM/Network Marketing Pyramid and Ponzi schemes in his state. And he doesn’t care if they are brick and mortar or internet based companies.

And… He has also engaged the support of Attorney Generals in other states who are also taking up the cause of going after these huge income generating pyramid/Ponzi schemes, confiscating their assets. In the case of AdSurf Daily in Florida, over $53 million in liquid and hard assets were confiscated.

And just last month Your travel Biz (YTB) settled with the California AG for $1 million in fines, and they are still facing similar charges in Illinois.

Troy’s Truth: Makes me wonder what will happen when he aims his guns are companies like DubLi Network and Ad View Global Association (The new AdSurf Daily).

It’s not like the company owners have not been in hot water before in Calf. In 2007 they were ordered to DESIST AND REFRAIN from doing business in California.

Here is a video shot back in 2007 by one of the owners J. Albert Sweeney (now I am old enough to remember the old T.V. series Green Acres, I would never trust anyone with the name Sweeney)

Rod Cook aka MLM Watchdog wrote a good article on this current situation.

    The best MLM training comes from leading by example. If you continue to recruit it shows your downline that it is possible to recruit a large amount of people and gives them hope. To give them motivation, drop a new distributor into your hardest working recruits downline from time to time.

    Sweeney sits in jail in CA waiting for his preliminary hearing which is scheduled for 8/21/09. Meanwhile, his blog site remains active and outlines his planned next great venture, using MLM to eradicate global human suffering. One can only imagine how much money he dreamed of looting by substituting a product for a worthy cause. Thank you Jerry Brown for putting an end to his madness.

    Your blog is very interesting & you make it for people who have little knowledge about MLM very interesting.

    I noticed that we are very much into the same interests so I wanted to drop by and say hello. My name is Reginald & I am into this kind of business too. I also work for the Federal Govt but I look forward to retiring really soon.

    The economy is really bad these days but unbeknownst to many, they can have financial stability thru MLM. Sadly, a lot of people think most MLMs are scams. If only they they’d open their eyes & try to understand MLM & its concepts better…I’m sure they’ll be on their way to financial freedom.

    I hope more people will be educated about MLMs thru your blog.

    Please Drop by my site & say hi! http://tinyurl.com/mesvrv

    I look forward to connecting with you.

    Ambit Energy has a great opportunity for people looking save on their energy cost and at the same time help others save on their energy costs. Currently Ambit is the #1 Top earning company as per INC 500 Magazine. Do I need to say any more?

    We just made a major announcement of expanding markets and we are now able to offer the same savings opportunity to small businesses in TX.
    I can go on and on about how great Ambit Energy is. Three thumbs up .. oops sorry I only have two thumbs.
