If so, comment your favorite fruity flavor and I’ll dm you with more details.

Maybe not an MLM - idk. Has anyone seen the TT of woman saying “broke to 40k a month. Come sign up with me and I’ll teach you how.” I stay in the lives, check their pages, but can’t figure out what they’re doing. Anyone know?

Hey everyone — first time posting here, so I’m not totally sure if this is the right subreddit, but I could really use some advice.

I’m 21 and about to graduate college at the beginning of May, so I’m deep in the job-hunting process right now.

I applied on Indeed for an “Entry Level Event Assistant” position listed under a company called Live Free. A couple of hours after applying, I received a message about the role but the message came from a completely different company called Relentless Marketing.

Naturally, I started doing some research. I honestly couldn’t find much information about Relentless Marketing besides a very poorly designed website. I also checked LinkedIn and couldn’t find a single person who currently works or has ever worked at this company, which immediately raised some red flags for me.

I had an initial Zoom call with them this morning that was supposed to go over basic information and see if I’d be a good fit. The meeting was just me and one woman, and oddly enough, the name displayed on her Zoom account wasn’t even hers, it was supposedly the CEO’s name (according to their website)

She asked me very basic questions about who I am and why I applied, and after that she launched into what felt like a long rant filled with buzzwords, vague numbers, and name-dropping big companies like Apple and T-Mobile without really explaining what the job actually involves. (Meanwhile, this was an event assistant position, not anything sales related)

At this point, I’m almost positive something feels off or potentially scam-like, but I wanted to see if anyone here has heard of this company or experienced something similar.

They scheduled me for another call tomorrow morning for what they’re calling a “formal interview,” and honestly the whole situation feels questionable. Would you go through with the second interview, or does this sound like something I should avoid altogether?

I call complete bullshit but just want to know what others think. Thanks!

Does anyone have a good resource I can send her? An easy to read/understand article or quick video I can send her to help? She’s kinda clueless about life and desperate for money so idk how to approach this.

One of my childhood best friends is all in on MAKE Wellness and peptides. She is into cross-fit and I normally trust her opinion on things because she eats really healthy, has gotten into great shape, etc. But I’m not fooled for a second that MAKE Wellness is an MLM.

I had a long talk with her about how I went off GLP-1 medication because I didn’t like the side effects. Her solution was peptides, and I was instantly skeptical. I’m not a medical professional but my understanding is that peptides are naturally occurring in protein so shouldn’t I just try to eat better proteins? What is MAKE Wellness trying to sell and what actually is in their products? I recently saw a posting where someone got their school board to allow the packets into the high school concessions.

I don’t want to be negative to my friend because it seems to be working, but I want to say that I think this is all a scam. Am I irrational for feeling this way?

It’s so annoying! I have a fb friend who just started plexus and now she literally is commenting on more than she did before. Like someone posts a picture of their kid getting a haircut or something she’ll be like “omg she’s so cute ☺️💗” or if someone posts they went to a concert or a restaurant she’s like I love their food what’s your fav dish or I love that band what’s your favorite song?

The worst is trying to get people to Interact with her posts so we will see more of her stuff if we interact with her. Like she makes up random posts like babes what your favorite athletic wear or babes comment below are you more of a morning person or night owl and the worst when people comment on the posts it’s other people who already do the same mlm evens or times I’ll see someone who does the mlm already and she will comment like interested can you tell me more about plexus? like girl get out we know your in on this bs

Omg it irks me I can’t believe we’re in 2026 and still people fall for this stuff.

Yet another hun drops by to defend their product based pyramid scheme. This time it’s an Amway hun who has had a Reddit account for a couple of years but has only recently become active.

Is this a ‘friend’ of the Bravenly hun, or is this a hun who is freaking out because the anti-MLM movement has significantly chipped away the downline base of their pyramids that they need to even exist as a hun?

Im a 30 (m) dad with a toddler, my fiancee and are struggle to stay positive at the end of each check and are often both negative by the time the check hits. I go to a chiropractor and was approached by a newer patient there. He started by complimenting me and we hit it off. After the third time seeing each other, he said his last appointment was coming up and offered to meet outside the chiropractor office to hang out and talk about cars. I said sure. When I offered to do a play date for our kids, he said he figured we could meet at panera and get coffee together first (first red flag). We met and had good conversation but he later began to talk about how troubled financially he was in his early 20s and how he had to "build himself into who his is today". This sounded very rehearsed and I suspected a pitch was coming. Then he ended his speech with "so hey, I wanted to talk to about this opportunity and joining me in expanding my business". Thats when the pitch came on. I asked him lots of questions about what a work day looks like, if he had promotional or official material to read, where the money comes from, what he even does. He was unable to clearly answer most of my questions but assured it would cost me nothing but a little of my time during the week, and he said much of his work involves "leveraging products" and "making new connections with people".

I wasn't sure what was happening at the time and he made it sound so lucrative, so all I said was, as long as it isn't a scam and I don't have to spend any of my own money, I would be interested in hearing more. He said he would meet with his business partners to talk about me and would reach out this up coming week.

I am sad because I genuinely thought I was making a new friend when it is so hard as a busy parent to make friends. Does this sound like he's trying to recruit me into an MLM? What do I do? My knowledge of MLM is very limited as I am in the service industry not sales

This is a dumb question. I have to ask. As we know, a lot MLMs shut down, in the last few years. A lot of the sales people went to Shaklee. Shaklee is actually quite an old MLM that was small, for a long period of time, and now they have gotten big. I don't know if Shaklee corporate was giving them a sign on bonus, or if that was just the choice of some, and the rest followed. So they have a big arsenal of representitives. They just did a trip for their top people, but I don't know anyone who buys Shaklee. I know at least one person who bought a produc from all the other ones, but who buys Shaklee? Do they just have their people buy an huge amount of inventory? I don't get it.

I literally just watched an Insta story of (someone I actually know- acquaintance) talk about how someone on her “team” was diagnosed with Stage 4 “c” given days to live, docs tell her say goodbye to family and now after drinking her “water” her scans are clear. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ just wow!
