HO-HUM "THE STREET" BLASTS -  PRE PAID LEGAL
11 Jan 2006 – Ho hum, this writer keeps blasting PPL.  A class action suit against PPL was won  based on one person putting $900 into a PPL distributorship.  One!  The jury gave the ambulance chasing lawyers about $10 million.  PPL will appeal and no doubt kick the ambulance chasing scumbags into the next century.  Other non MLM companies sell the same package as PPL why no class action suits on them?  They aren’t publicly traded with high value stock! Ed. Note: Mumble, mumble - tort reform! Idiot class action suits like this! http://www.thestreet.com/_tscrss/stocks/melissadavid/10253221.html

5 Jan 2006 – It pays to subscribe to our newsletter or search the WatchDog.  Back on 18 May 2004 –  there was a joint Investigation by MLM Truth and MLM WatchDog.  On earnings claims... It turns out they were being generated by Trivita Distributors who were used to pitching $10k packages for Trivita.    They decided that they could make more money with Trim and pulled the $10k stunt over at Trim.  They were forced to cease.   Then the world gets more convoluted  The latest complaints last month came from people wanting their money back from Trim.  Turns out they were joining the Diamond Scam in Canada and wanted their money out for that.  What a world!
