So, this guy on YouTube subscribed to me, and sent me a friend request. The only thing is, I went to his channel and he shoved 2 US grand to the camera.
(I wouldn't show anyone that cash if I had it)
Anyway, am I suppose to befriend this guy or what? He is trying to get people to sign up for his newsletter on his website. Compared to his clothes, it looks like some high paid marketing expert did the website he was trying to show us. I get offers off-line for all sorts of these well-known (idk about trusted) insurance companies all the time (they want me to sell for them, like I'm good with numbers) Also, I saw a bunch of middle-aged people do these videos and I am wondering if this a pyramid thing. They can't be on the high end of the stick if their doing this can they? I have no idea what to do here. A relative of mine does this life insurance selling stuff, and has not quit yet, while someone else I knew has, so what is this? [url]http://www.youtube.com/user/primericamlm[/url]
Does anyone else get these types of friend requests? I just got confused, because it seems like he is trying to appeal to kids, and I did not think kids were allowed to mess with big number $'s and major people.

That's the site he linked. Its safe (as in no viruses, but I'm not sure about phishing).
But really, that looks so far from being legit. It's stuff you'd see on a pop-up.

oh and if someone had a secret to getting money, wouldn't you think they would keep it to themselves?
they have testimonials, do it
The guy made himself look like an idiot on his youtube channel.
Maybe he was trying to appeal to a different crowd.
Clara M. says "Go for it".
I have a foolproof way to get money. Just pm me, I'll give you my paypal, you send whatever amount you want tripled, and I'll send it back to you asap.
Keith O. - "Wow this really works!"
Mary M. - "I was skeptical at first, but now I send my entire paycheck right to him every week, it's like I'm working for triple what I do!"
Looks legit man, don't be a pussy. Do it!
He is all about the benjamins!

The secret is selling it to other people.
But seriously now, if you aren't new to the Internet, you shouldn't fall for these things. This looks about as legit as a FREE CANDY van.
First of all, why would anyone use FedEx to deliver your payment?
Second, why would the payment be in cash, and have no receipt in the envelope?
If you are going to believe everything you see on the internet, then you might as well believe Santa Claus is real.

But he is
This is legit like those Nigerian princes who ask you for money.
I'm tempted to believe that anyone that falls for this sort of thing deserves to get scammed.
It's not a scam. It is basically a pyramid scheme that involves getting people to work for you while you work for someone else. The person who you got registered under gets profit from all of the work you do and the people that you got to work under you get yourself profit.
This is an [b]OBVIOUS[/b] pyramid scheme.

^ Agree. His video in the way he described what he's doing is the basic outline of a pyramid scheme.
IF i was smart to begin with, I would not have even asked. Thats pretty bad. The whole thing is, from doing some back tracking, these type of corporations seem to love targeting teens, not familiar with their well-known names, and you know how money looks convincing to kids. I saw an ad in the paper today, and I don't know how or why they can get teens, not even legal to do this type of thing for them.
Anything, [i]anything[/i], for $2 these days has to be a scam, let alone over the internet.
He has a job, and he went to the bank to take some money out and showed it.
