ACN Subtle ripoff... concord, North Carolina

The application of just a little common sense could have saved you the 500 bucks it cost to join, and the alienation of your friends and family which you will never be able to repair.

ACN is actually a PYRAMID SCHEME no matter how they "spin" it and skirt the law.

But rest assured the AG's of several states and the FTC are hot on the heels of ACN.

YOU can help with your written complaint to all agencies.

Here is the deal. ACN reps make the majority of their real income by recruiting other members rather than from the sale of bonafide goods and services. This is what makes it an ILLEGAL PYRAMID.

If you look at the compensation plan, anyone with even third grade math skills and a shred of common sense could see that it would be totally and physically impossible to actually make a living from this program based on commissions from services sold.

That is why they need that 500 bucks up front. They need to pay the recruiting agent and the upline, which supports the pyramid claim.

I would bet that of all of the total participants in ACN, LESS THAN 3% have ever made a dime.

Come on ACN, LETS SEE THE REAL NUMBERS!

That is a CHALLENGE.

Put up or shut up.

The motto with ACN reps and almost all MLM schemes is "fake it til you make it". Most of these people pitching these schemes are unemployed, and/or broke, and living on credit with the fancy cars, clothes, and 'flash" cash they use at meetings.

The bottom line is that they are broke because they were scammed and have made no money at all, and now they need to scam you to get that money back.

Furthermore, the "services" that ACN offers are not even competitive in todays communications market. After all, long distance is FREE on my cell phone, and every other cell phone I know of.  Almost NOBODY uses home phones anymore, as they are obsolete. The cable company offers bundles with local, long distance and internet that cannot be beat pricewise by anyone.

So, what purpose does ACN actually serve?

NONE.
