I would not invest in a MLM scam in early stage even if there is a chance of getting profit from it since some needs you to promote first and get some affiliate to get some profit from your investment and I wouldn't want to do that. The best thing I can do against these MLM scams are to not invest in them even if we know we can profit from them to stop them from scamming many people if there are there would be less people who lost money.

In MLM in start stage ofcourse it will not scam first they will attract people who will invest big to their website and if they maximize they want to scam they will started to run off you will get nothing if they scammed you people always attract to those investment program like this you people are moron and will get nothing. Why be greedy on wealth when you can do with your own hard work.

We all know there is no way investing in a MLM scam will ever bring positive results no matter which stage its at. So I wouldn't waste my time.

If it won't require me to invite friends into it and I know I'm early enough, I would if I have the money to spare.Drop in some cash, take it out along with interests, and the leave without looking back. The internet has made this a lot easier now, though I think it becomes harder to game them. A relative keep on insisting that I deposit some bits in btcriver.com, swearing he made money out of it. Just so he'd stop talking about it, I deposited a small amount and then just disregarded it. Now he's complaining that it won't let him withdraw again. I've been tracking the money I deposited there and I redeposit the profits. I'm waiting for all of the deposits to mature now. If their scammer system only tracks how many times money has been deposited to an address and it allows people to get bits at least once, I might still be able to get my money back. Cheesy


Yes, there are some bitcoin mlm scheme/scams which do not require inviting other friends(person). You could create dummy accounts for you and invest via them as your referrals. This way you are putting all your money and not inviting other people.
It is possible to get money back from MLM scam if :
1. you enter in early stage
2. You don't reinvest your  returns from scam.

This way it is possible get money out of MLM scams.

When it comes to MLM, some people become very possessive about their legality and defend them as legit.

There is no way you could get money from this kind of MLM thing because from the start you join you already been scammed away. Just need some time to make you believe that you are going to get your money but in the end they can't pay you up. Most scheme that I saw before was they make you believe that you have huge amount on your account and when you want to withdraw it takes a long process and in the end they dont give any penny in your account. So it is better to stay away from this kind of MLM thing before you regret it
Yeah I have seen that too, you will see in their main page incredible stats about the earnings of the ones that deposited early but the truth is no one can withdraw their funds and the fantastic ‘earnings’ they got at all, so it is better to not deceive ourselves if you invest in a MLM you are probably never going to see that money back.

I have a friend who put his money in MLM and it didn't end well. So i won't invest in MLM even if it's still in early stage because i lack the skill to refer in the first place. Investing in this kind of things is the same as robbing people of their money. I'm surprised there's still many greedy people who invest in this kind of thing.

No i dont want to do give my money to scammer, i had a bad experience with scam sites and i dont want to involve myself in that things again and also i dont want to drag somebody to join the scam site, no matter how big the profit promise the site offered
Not just you, many people are having some opinion about ponzi sites only after having their OWN experiences, yes they usually do not listen to other people nor what they are reading in forum or books. They learn about precautions only after experiencing some losses.

I also had bad experiences with ponzi schemes and now I am staying away from them. The fee I have paid for this lesson is big one, still it was completely avoidable if I have listened to my friend's opinions.

No, I will never do it as the odds for me to never see my money back are too high to take the risk. If however I am 100% to get it back, I will do it.

Edit : I saw about affiliates. So no, I will not do it, as I do not want to do some affiliating. If I need to do the work, better go somewhere else !

Same here, definitely no to promote scam company or scam schemes that will make lots of people lose their money.  If you think of the picture, you earn 10% out of your effort and 90% goes to the scam company.  It is not worth the effort let alone our trust ratings. 
Those people who really desperates in needs money will do everything
Include this dirty business, avoid to become evil, you will not earn good money from there
People have to wake up from the daydreaming to get profit easily and big!
Money always can make everyone gone crazy.

possibilities for profit in hyip can be quite small. even if you invest in the beginning, but no one can guarantee that you will profit. but if you are forced to invest is up to you

MLM must be a scam attempt in my view. I never agree with MLM is kind of affiliate program. Ponzi schemes have definite differences from affiliate marketing. But unfortunately many people are working on MLM with same thoughts as affiliate and facing problems for their reputations.

Indeed it is very important for everyone (including me) to understand never ever invest in MLM scam.  There will be situations where your friends and colleagues will be happily investing in these scams and not necessarily under you but someone else. You'll not get any referral commissions out of their investment, however when you know a scam is in process then you can't explain it to people aka your friends who are happily investing because they are getting regular payments. You became a bad person if you explain them about scam. They will think that your jealous of their success. And you don't want them to succeed. This goes on till scam is getting fresh investments. Once scam is exposed and promoters runs away with money only then they will understand their mistake. There is quite good chance that you may still be hated because they'll  think that you jinxed it.

Thus my opinion is stay away from MLM no matter how big you could earn. Ultimately it is other peoples money is getting robbed. Whatever you may earn it is from that loot money.  Thus say no to MLM scams.

Big problem is explaining people MLM scam and warning people against scams especially when they are receiving regular payouts.

only plan big comission referal and can find much referal can get much profit in MLM and ponzy site
Yes, when we are not bothering about our friends and colleagues and their possibilities for recovering investments then we can join any MLM programs and we can force our friends and colleagues to join under us as down-lines. Because a typical MLM works this way alone.

When we are earning some referral commission when that referred person get some benefits then there would be nothing wrong. But MLM is not in working that way.

It would be much better if you invest your money in bitcoins. Just simply holding the coin gives you profit after a couple of months. Since the MLM scam that OP has is giving 10% return per month, bitcoin holding would be much better than that as you can multiply your money depending on your timing and how long are you going to hold it. It's much safer too.

You know that it's a scam, then why even bother ask people if it would be good to invest there? I suggest that you stop wasting your time risking money on sure scam like those.

Here is a interesting, hypothetical situation. What will you do if there is a MLM scam going on and it is in early stage. It is assuring 10% monthly return in bitcoins (of course it has that referral bonus part as well but it is optional, you don't need referral as you are getting 10% on your investment.).  B'cause of it's early stage, people are investing happily and getting returns monthly. In short equation of incoming source money > outgoing money. By looking at situation, let's say this scam/scheme will go on two more year.   There are some people who rip benefits from these kind of scams/schemes as they invest very early and in large chunk.

Will you invest in such scheme well before it vanishes with bitcoins/money?

It's a scam and I don't normally mix scam with investment because they are not meant to be together but if you will push me to the wall I will just try to determine the stage of the NLM; is it at the beginning, middle or end stage? It's very difficult to find out the stage but if it's at the beginning then the risk will be less so I can invest else forget you won't get me to invest.
It does not matter if the MLM is at the beginning stages, a scam is a scam and there is no way around it, even if for some miracle you were able to obtain all your money back and even some profit you can be sure that many people wont and you will be an accomplice of the scam.
Here's the thing.
If those other people are investing in the MLM scam, they are accomplices of the scam too, or at least they want to be. (unknowingly)
I guess you can say they get punished, and you don't.

This question is really interesting because it puts morals against personal interest.
You have a chance to gain profit at the expense of someone else, but regardless of what you do it won't stop the MLM scam from happening.

I will admit it is an interesting question, but while the scam in question will keep happening you must understand that by not investing in it, you are shortening the life span of the scam, even if just by a little time, if enough people do that then the time of the scam is greatly diminished and less people get scammed.

Yes, this is indeed interesting hypothetical situation where if you make correct moves at right time then you could earn in $150k/month but at same time you are earning than money at expense of others loss.  Recently i came to know that some people are earning in range of  $ 149515.30 per month.  When stakes are this high do you really think it is easy to stay away ?
