The new incarnation of the pyramid scam, the Reverse Funnel System. (turn a funnel upside down, what does it look like?) This scam has dragged in a lot of people, it's only a matter of time before the US Government takes away "Ty's" beach house. This scam makes you pay 50$ up front to even learn what their product is, and you pay a 300$ a month membership to stay in. (the product is a time share in Global Resorts Networks, a resort network under investigation for fraud) Most people buy the 3000$ platinum membership it seems, from comments on sites. They are flooding Google with thousands of copy-pasted sites, and to hide bad criticism, they make sites with titles like "The Reverse Funnel System is Not a Scam". They have PR people who go around copy-pasting text onto negative reviews, singing high praises for RFS.

Bottom line: Don't get scammed.

Thanks for the heads-up! But only the really gullible fall for these types of things. Rule of thumb, if it sounds to good to be true, it usually is! There are no get rich quick schemes that anyone can teach you.

Actually, you can get rich quick... by scamming, rather than falling for get-rich-quick scams.

I can no longer sit back and allow communist infiltration, communist indoctrination, communist subversion, and the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

Screw warnings. If you're dumb enough to get scammed, you don't deserve that money. People get scammed, they lose their savings, everything they own, and they become homeless and eventually die cold and alone in dank alley.

Dumb people dying? Where's the problem?

Hear hear!

We should start a pyramid scam, you buy into it and you get a FREE COPY OF FS2. The normal free copy will be available in the same place it always was, but we could dupe stupid people into paying for our server.
