Shannon, I might just do that. I trust the people in this forum even though I've never met any of you. I will give the lowdown I suppose of my understanding in this company's works.
I am recruited. I have to recruit 3 people. I have to witness 3 people having an account closed with this insurance company within 30 days. If I accomplish this, I will receive a promotion (irrelevant to making money) and if I also obtain a license I will be reimbursed 300 dollars.
The closing the accounts is where I find it odd. My signing up for an account is one of my "3/3/30". That's where i feel the sketchy part comes in. I'm not signing up. So far I've committed 100 dollars to a background check and some 60 dollars for a licensing exam. But if i get others to join and witness closed accounts I will get back 300 dollars.
Here's one thing that is odd to me. My friend is in the company, and so is his brother. My friend told me that many people in the company end up becoming clients to the company, to the person that recruited them. That's what I'm really hating at the moment, so I am certainly not dedicating more of my money to this company, not until I at least make money. And I'm certainly not buying an insurance package until I sell them and can make money!!!
I could probably get the 60 bucks back for the licensing exam if I tried, but as it stands... it's a very strange system. Everyone in google/yelp, with the exception of a few links states how flippin strange it is, almost like a pyramid scheme. As soon as I told my brother about it, I started to realize that it potentially was. Strange because the financial industry is regulated by the government...
