My MLM Experience: One Community

@ The Weld, Jalan Raja Chulan, KL, Malaysia

As promised, the post is dedicated to all my readers in all around the world. Please read carefully and stay away from MLM (Multi Level Marketing), especially from SYN (Steven Yeam Network) which is a SCAM.

The story started last thursday with a rare call from my sister,

Sis: Bro, are you free this saturday morning?

Me: I think so, why?

Sis: Come, I 'll come to KL and attend a seminar in Sunway Convention Center (SunwayCC). Would you come with me?

Me: Erm, what seminar? (Common question, Must ask before you go)

Sis: It's a business (MLM like to regard themselve a business), a whole - new business concept you can't find it in Malaysia yet.

Me: Oh, got so Keng ah? (Keng = Awesome) Direct Selling izzit?

Sis: No la, You come and listen lar. Then you can see the opportunity.

Me: Hanaaa, OK lar (shouldn't had said this)

Friday night, another call from sis to reassure. I missed the call and called back.

Me: Hamisu? (What's the matter?)

Sis: Remember tomorow is 8.30am meet in Sunway Hotel.

Me: Er, actually what type of business is that?

Sis: I tell you also dunno la.

Me: If that is MLM, then I dun want to listen larr.

Sis: You hear before one com ar?

Me: Nope!

Sis: Then go and listen lar, the ticket is RM80. I pay for you.

Me: Want meh? I no money to join one leh.

Sis: Go and accompany me listen kenot ar?

Me: Hanna (Hanna = OKAY loh) (Don't want to resist already)

Next morning, I took a cab to Sunway CC and listen to the seminar. 1st speaker talk about change, investment, and risk. The 2nd speaker talk about the product, and the business model. They are selling Hi - Tech Wellness product. And the last speaker is the founder itself, Mr Steven Yeam. Keep telling about the creation of new business, Hi-Tech Wellnessm & urge the partners (Frankly, It's a downline rather than partner. They just want to make it sounds good) to make it a new phenomenon and bullshits.

What Type of Product Do They Sell?

I had been briefed on the products and given the brochure. Bur I didn't join into the GANG in the end. So, I get nothing. But I manage to remember all the products and description, take a look on the picture below.

How Do They Approach Us?

1. Firstly, they will invist us to attend a paid seminar. Of course the paid seminar will be held in some high - class venue to generate the feel that it is a legitimate business and Yes, it's big. Because got alot of people EXISTING members attended it.

2. Everyone are so friendly fake and passionate into lending you a helping hand. Nah! Then, they 'll ask successful member to start sharing their experience. And they like to use young people like university students to entice more youths to step into the trap.

3. They bring you to the office, I can't deny that they have poured in alot of money in such a big premise. I get my free - trial session with the E - Life machine. Wow, the machine really works. However, the CPU - sized device cost RM 25, 000. Then they 'll say, "Cheap Things Not Good, Good Things Not Cheap". (F*ck You) Then I did my research ONLINE again, I found out that a company called ELANRA which had invented the air ionizer machine 40 years ago and their product selling at less than AUD 1000. Its even 100 times more convenient than that f*cking E - Life machine which require us to sit for an hour with the risk of getting electric shock (I accidentally shock my girlfriend). (Curse The Founders of One Com  meet a horrible car crash....and everyone don't have to see them again....SCAMMER and LIAR)

4. They bring you to the office, go to discussion (more like wasting your time) and then bring you home at late night. When you came home, you just don't feel like doing anything. Soon, You forget to make research on the company. Oh My God, You are the Big Fish!

5. Currently, they are promoting their new business model. They said: "we are not only MLM, we are everything. Mr Steven Yeam is a wise person. He make this business model : MBS."

- MBS? Mortgage Backed Securities? NO! Its Micro Macro Business System. MBS comprise of all business model. Ranging from Retail, MLM, Franchise, Wholesale, and Merchant. I wonder: "Is that something new? Not really. They just brought the same business model in Lampe Berger and apply it again in new SCAM"

6. The profit margin is so high. For example, selling an E - Life will earn you RM5,000 as a member only (member get 20% discount). As your position get higher, you can get more discount and earn more. It can goes up to about 50%. Have you ever think that a good businessman will mark up the price so high? And have you think that people will buy the product if they know about the price being mark up so tremendously high?

7. If you are interested, can you recruit your fren to join by just became a member? NO.

You need to become one of the franchisee, paying RM1,200 for 2 packs of E - Nutra and E Z Out. Thereafter, you can recruit anyone you like. (wtf, go die lar) Moreover, you can always buy up position, and this convince me that they are real SCAMMER.

8. Last they 'll show you the luxury lifestyle. For example, there are alot of luxury cars in the office's car park. They will start to tell you something like this: " This sport car belong to Mr so-and-so. He's very young, 26 yo can buy own sport car already (Dunno how many people he had to conned before afford to buy his car). Last time he work in Citibank as manager one, but he quit to join this business as he seen opportunity in it."

PS: I am half way from joining the SCAM as everything comes handy, but luckily I did my own research and decide to stop after paying RM230. You shouldn't pay any money before you do research.

Why I think it is a SCAM?

I am sure that there is a group of people will think I purposely spoiling the reputation of One Com, but there are few reasons convince myself that One Com is a SCAM.

+ The introducer is reluctant to tell me what type of business they doing previously. When I asked, they said that is old business and don't want to further mention. Definitely it raise my suspicion further, so I went ONLINE and checked.
+ One Com is only two and half months old baby. Well, This new company is established by SYN (Steven Yeam Network). Do you remember the famous Lampe Berger SCAM? I think you do. The Lampe Berger SCAM is operated by the SYN.

Thus, I also believe that if a person can SCAM for 1 time. Then, there will be the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, .....infinity times.
+ Everything is very clear now. SYN is established a new pyramid scheme with the name of One Com as the Lamp Berger SCAM doesn't work for them anymore. Furthermore, SYN bring all its downlines in Lampe Berger SCAM into the new One Com SCAM.
+ So, it means that there are few hundreds or thousands of people are on top of you when you are joining the One Com SCAM. Are you willing to work hard and generate income for those B*st*rds?

+ Lastly, Do you think that a genuine businessman who want to build up a good business will allow its sales agent to earn 40 - 50% of product sales price? For example, if you sell an E - Life machine then your profit will be about (40% X RM25,000 = RM10,000).

+ Please think and re-think again, is the machine worth RM25,000? The cost of manufacturing might not more than RM1,000. But they said its Korean technology, you know the price of copyright. But a "partner" can earn so much, can you guess how many percent they mark up the item? Maybe its 1000 - 2000%?

+ Haha, I personally doubt that whether people will buy such products. Nowadays, people even need to think again and again for item such as a massage chair which cost only RM3,000 - RM10,000. The price of an E - Life machine will cost about the price of Half Myvi already and RM25,000 you can make down payment for a car already. SO, HOW MANY PEOPLE WILL PAY RM25,000 FOR A DEVICE AS SMALL AS A CPU.

+ If those are sincere in promoting healthcare products to the public, then the profit margin for them shouldn't be so high. Obviously, the One Com SCAM want to reap off every cent in our pocket.

Conclusion:

I hope everyone who read this post will know a little bit about One Com and make your personal decision on their invitation. You may say I misjudged them and should give them a second chance. Well, I think it's better to be safe than sorry.

For your information, they are currently new in Malaysia and Hong Kong. The One Com SCAM will expand to Thailand, Singapore, and Indonesia in 2010. Be careful my friends.

Currently my own sister being brainwashed by them. I pray for her to realize One Com is a SCAM earlier and not losing any of her friends. May God bless her.

If you think what I write here does make sense for you, please do spread the word to your loves one. If you don't, please ignore!

For those who had already in the con-game, withdraw yourself immediately or continue to con people around you.

May God Evil Send You To Hell SYN!
