Welcome to Multi Level Mondays, a weekly series all about multi level marketing, pyramid schemes, and ponzi schemes.

World Financial Group was founded by a former Primerica salesman; pyramid schemes breed more pyramid schemes, this is hardly a surprise. But, like father like son, this MLM has quite a few scam-shaped issues. From misrepresentation to scamming salespeople, World Financial Group has earned itself a nasty reputation—one that doesn’t seem to be going anywhere anytime soon.

Sylvia Browne was famous for being a psychic that helped locate missing children. Which is ironic because, to this day, she seemed to have hurt far more cases than helped. Truthfully, she died a fraud, a liar, and a wealthy woman. But why did she act this way? Did she actually help anyone?

The Trump Foundation was formed by (of course) Trump himself and was originally meant to be a tax-exempt foundation where Trump could give a portion of his money to charity. Yet, the Donald J. Trump Foundation ended up becoming an organization meant to hide his shady exchanges and deals, a place where Trump helped himself—not charity.

Beneath all the glitz, the beautiful costumes and mesmerizing routines, figure skating has a dark side. Racism, demands in body image, and scandals have perpetuated the sport for years. Is figure skating even half as beautiful as it looks?

Lighthouse promises to be exactly that: a lighthouse. A saving grace to people who need it. But nothing could be further from the truth. Instead, this life coaching organization takes advantage of people who need them, emptying their wallets and distancing them from friends and family.

Oral Roberts practically founded the modern day mindset of ‘seed faith’. If you plant a seed—aka give him money—it will grow into something even more fantastic. In actuality, it will probably only grow into a new car or mansion for a televangelist. Not only did he cement this mindset as a normality but he and his son are notorious for practicing it

Welcome to Multi Level Mondays, a weekly series all about multi level marketing, pyramid schemes, and ponzi schemes.

Endorsements from celebrities such as William Shatner have a lot of weight and bring a lot of growing power to a company. Back in the 80s, United Sciences of America proved this when they went from nothing to 140,000 distributors in seven months. But they were a scam, and hardly more than a year later, went defunct. What happened? What made this MLM fall apart, when so many live to prey another day?

If you’ve seen the videos swirling around the Internet of Pyrex brand glass breaking, or if you’ve heard that Instant Pot is headed for bankruptcy, maybe you’ve wondered why. It seems like not that long ago they were on top of the world. Is it corporate greed that corrupted your kitchenware, or something worse?

McDonald’s is one of the most well-known fast-food chains in the world. We know their burgers aren’t made from the highest quality ingredients, we know their food never looks like the picture, but what else is wrong with this household name? Turns out, even if you’re aware of their shady operations, McDonald’s might be worse than you think.
