Crackdown on pyramid selling

Crackdown on pyramid selling

Chinese authorities have uncovered more than 1 billian yuan (RM 469 million) of illegal pyramid sales in the last 12 months, it was revealed yesterday.

Figures disclosed by the Ministry of Public Security showed that 516 cases have been uncovered involving 1,147 direct selling organisations. A total of 3,408 suspects were arrested.

Gao Feng, deputy director of the Economic Crime Investigation Bureau of the ministry, said that pyrammid selling had become "a serious economic crime in China."

He added that ther had been a resurgence of the illegal activity despite the lifting of the ban on direct sales last December.

"The increase in online pyramid selling has made our task more difficult. Some criminals even use internet based servers overseas," he said.

He warned that special attention would be paid to pyramid selling on university campuses,

Direct selling is the marketing of products to consumers face-to-face, away from fixed retail locations. It is permitted in some countries with certain legal restrictions to guarantee consumer interests.

China issued a blanket ban on all varieties of direct and pyramid seling in 1998 due to widespread pyramid schemes. During the ban, door-to-door sellers were restricted to selling in retail stores.

However, the State Council issued a regulation late last year to distinguish direct selling from pyramid selling, which opened the door to legitimate direct selling companies.

The only company to have acquired a license was Avon China in February.

A pyramid sales organisation requires every member to fork out a non-refundable registration fee, and then they have to coax other people to join the multi-level network and earn commission based on the number of new members they entice.

The biggest case was based in South China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, which involved more than 380,000 people from 31 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities. - China Daily/Asia News Network


There goes your China market, DCHL lampe berger members...We have to applaud China's harsh actions against this schemes.

So, when is Malaysian government going to investigate RZ Corporation?

Applause to the Chinese Government on their efforts to crackdown on pyramid scheme. This does help LB's business in China by all these crackdowns. BTW, LB was awarded the 2003 Integrity Enterprise in Shanghai.

Wow big news!!

Someone tried to ask for RM100K each from steven yeam and DCHL through a middle party or else they will use 2 blogs to bring down their business. Steven Yeam and company ignored them and they reduce to 50K now.
If they pay, one of the blog owner will admit that he has misunderstood the business and apologise. The other one will announce that he has happily got his refund and case closed.
I immediately think of this blog.
What a trick, bringing out father and brother into the act.
Look like they will not get it.
Using website threats to make money are common in overseas but in Malaysia, maybe 1st time.

Applause to the Chinese Government ? It's just another form of corruption. You don't need to take years just to understand any Company and approved only one.
Now nearly every MLM Companies still find ways to do their business there by using names like "franchise" or "chain store system", including LB and Amway.

Anyway, China is not so stupid as to allow MLM to operate in China, without tight regulations.
