has anyone ever heard of this or tried it? The deal is you become a representative which you pay $499 to do then you try to get more representatives under you along with customers. You try to get people to buy their cell phone contracts, tv plans, local and long distant calling, and their new video phone so you can have a face to face conversation over the phone. If you get people to agree to buy this stuff they buy it through you and acn that way you get a percentage of their bill each month. They still keep whoever they had before like verizon or dish but it gets routed through you or somethin so you get a commission. Your also supposed to try and get representatives under you and that is how you supposedly make the big bucks. Once you recruit representatives then they recruit reps and customers and so on and so forth. In return your commission grows along with receiving bonuses for recruiting. Its kinda hard to explain everything in detail i was really just curious to see if any of you guys have heard of this or tried it or know someone who has tried it. I have some friends who signed up for it and one of them thinks he is going to pretty much get rich off of it. Another thing is this company has been around since 93 and i have never heard of them and i guess its endorsed by Donald Trump as well but dont really think that means much. I guess they are expecting to make a ton of money off these new video phone thing they came up with they are expecting that most people in America will have one by 2012.  I just dont know if i really believe in a get rich quick thing especially from something like this. Let me know what you guys think about it or if you have heard about it before. Sorry for the long winded thread but thanks for taking the time to read it. Im just trying to get some insight on this stuff a lot of people i talk to think it is just a scam and im kinda on the fence about it.   Thanks,  Dillon

ya thats kinda what i was thinking except you dont get paid for recruiting someone. To get paid they have to be successful so it kind of requires you to help the person you have just recruited. I think to make any money though you would have to be pretty far up the line with some of your lower reps doing really well.

Yep, that's an MLM if I've ever seen one...

Kinda sounds like Amway.  I thought pyramid schemes were illegal?  Either way, it's incredibly hard for all but the top level players to make a good living.
