| It's a MLM scheme, and to make any money, you have to recruit distributors, which is why your "friend" is approaching you to become one too. The president is a long-time scammer: "Sam Caster, Mannatech's president, has been under the regulatory gun before. In 1991, he was investigated by the State of Texas, and agreed to stop selling a device called the "Electracat," to stop making claims unsupported by scientific evidence about any product, and to pay $125,000 in investigative costs. This occurred two years after Caster was accused of deceiving consumers over an energy-saving product." The products themselves are of dubious quality: http://www.mlmwatch.org/04C/Mannatech/evans.html "While Mannatech says it has an eight-member scientific team, its monthly magazine recently said there are no double-blind, placebo-controlled studies of the type used by drug companies establishing that its products work." RUN VERY FAST AS FAR AS YOU CAN TO GET AWAY FROM THIS ONE. |
