OK...My heart goes out to all of you who have been scammed by this dispicable company. I'd love to see someone find a way to give a rebuttal to my case.

I have a master's degree and am very sharp...no dummy here.I was a teacher for 10 years here in New York making a very good salary.

Decided I wanted to be my own boss. Thought Herbalife would be a great chance, seemed to have all the makings of a great opportunity since I was considering going for a doctorate in Natural Health.

The Upline rep. completely pushed, pressured, cojoled, manipulated, you name it, she did it and did it well,folks. Call me a sucker, but they're good at what they do.

Now, please don't tell me about personal responsiblity, blah, blah, blah, I worked my can off for a year dialing like crazy and was even asked to speak at one of there teleconferences.

Well, guess what everyone, after a year of working and following the plan "to a "t" like they always say, (they have so many great brainwashing techniques) I built only a small retail business, (didI mentionIhavegreat phone skills?)and received just ONE check from the company for the entire year for $45.45!!!!! And that's after working it full-time investing thousands of dollars and countless hours of time. Oh, and my mentor who was working the
business full-time had to go get a j-o-b and downgrade to part-time.

Here's another news flash, I came into this business NEVER expecting to make huge sums of money overnight. You see, I have a good head on my shoulders. Let's see if anyone can explain a $45 check after a year of very hard labor.

And another thing, when I was on boardroom calls, one of the top men in the company on more than one occasion was impressed with my gauge and my skill set and thought I would be a future candidate to teach others to be .
successful. If I was so successful, where's was the profit???? All they kept saying was "Do more, be more, have more" is that hilarious, or what?!!! He would just tell me to do more and keep doing things consistently which I did and I would be rewarded for my efforts, oh...really?????

Where am I now? Well after havingperfectcreditfor 20 years I'm on my way to bankruptcy court this June 2007 and I can thank Herbalife because I needed to spend so much money on leads and everything else to keep my head above water, I am completely broke. I will not accept that I am a fool. Ifollowedthem and did myjobwith a clear conscience.

I don't know how they put their heads on their pillows and sleep atnight. Maybe they actually toss and turn, probably not. If I am bitter I have every leg to stand on.

I am a very positive young lady who's sweetness was taken to the cleaners. So,for those of you who work for the company who say that you work hard and that's why your doing well, please don't insult my intelligence.

Just waiting for the day when Herbalife folds, then the celebration will begin.

I too got sucked in! I was part of a team called The Online System, then it changed to the Online Business Mentors. A few years ago hundreds of the top leaders incl GET MIL and PRES team all left at the same time and went to Melaleuca. I just found out some horrible things that Herbalife team leaders were doing to their downline. What happened to you, actually has happened to thousands of people. Thank God I got out before getting into too much debt. Now I'm contacting everyone who is a recruiter with Herbalife and telling them everything I've found out. I've also switched to Melaleuca, and what a refreshing change it's been! No selling products and no investments or advertising fees was the major reason I joined. I'm so happy they found me, if they hadn't I would have stayed with Herbalife and lost even more money! Please contact me if you'd like more info on everything I've found out. (((ROR redacted)))
