Question Posted Sunday July 20 2008, 5:41 pm

I want to make this very clear. I am only asking this question to people who have tried this themselves. If you have not actually tried it your self, with your own time and money, and you tell me it is a scam cause you think it is, i will give you a score of a 1.

With that said.
I would like to know if anyone has tried that letter you get in the mail, where everyone helps everyone make money. You send $6 to the six people and then you put your name on the list. At the end of 3 or 4 months you are supposed to make around $800,000. The reason that I want to hear from somone who has done it, is because there are a lot of people who have told me that Melaleuca and The Team and stuff like that are scams and I know first hand that they are not. They just take time, money and dedication. So if anyone has tried this letter thing and it has worked for them I would like to know, cause I will do it. If it doesn't let me know what you did and why it didnt work for you. Thank you for your time.

That is a pyramid scheme and a chain letter, both illegal. If you forward it, you will be fined up to $200,000 and/or imprisoned up to 2 years.

I hate to waste an answer for this, but as a site administrator, I'd like you to know that if you rate any user a one just for not giving you an answer you want, you can and will be banned.

Ones are for abusive, harmful, and/or illegal advice.
Now, you may rate 2s and any advice that doesn't help you but also isn't illegal, harmful, etc.
3s would be for those who are helpful
4s for those whose advice you take/like
5s for answers/advice that works for you...

I'm just giving you a heads up now that you are threating to abuse our rating system.

At this point, you have TWO options.
You may delete this question and ask it once more (usually against the rules to ask a question more than once, but you have my permission to do so in this case) without including the bit about rating ones for those answers that tell you it's a scam (I will reword your begining portion for you momentarily)

OR you can leave this quesiton (with my response... what you are reading right now) up for all to see.

Although I have the ability to delete this question, I decided I would leave it up to you.

---

If you re-ask this question, you can put THIS at the beginning of your question:

"I want to make this very clear. I am only asking this question to people who have tried this themselves. If you have not actually tried it yourself, with your own time and money, and you tell me it is a scam cause you think it is, I don't want your answer. I want EXPERIENCED answers ONLY".

With that, you have every right to rate a two to users who tell you it's a scam without having personally tried it.

Thanks,
S_C
