Better Business Bureau advierte de una nueva oportunidad para ganar dinero que afirma ser una opción de "marketing multinivel en el Internet", que no podría ser sino un esquema de pirámide. Una investigación realizada por BBB demuestra que iJango, una nueva empresa que autodescribe sus servicios como de marketing multinivel, busca agresivamente representantes para un producto que no posee historial. Los consumidores están pagando cientos de dólares por adelantado, bajo la promesa de que ganarán dinero reclutando a otras personas para que hagan lo mismo, lo que constituye una señal de alerta de un posible esquema de pirámide. http://northeastcalifornia.bbb.org/article/better-business-bureau-advierte-acerca-de-un-posible-esquema-de-pirmide-en-ijango-12476 Thu, 03 Sep 2009 05:00:00 GMT It’s time to head back to school for many students and Better Business Bureau is warning consumers against online programs that offer fast and easy high school diplomas or college degrees.
