I am sure You have heard about TVI (Travel Ventures International) already, a new MLM program in the travel/vacation industry that is filling up quickly. They have a matrix that will pay $10,000 when You cycle.

The downside is it requires $275 to join and You have to sponsor two members, and that's why I originally discarded joining it.

Just recently I came across TVI Global Assist Team which is a feeder program to TVI. This one is just $37 to join plus $20 per referral if you don't want to sponsor yourself. You will join a 2x2 matrix that will pay $100 when You cycle and $20 when each of Your referrals do. After two cycles Your TVI membership will be paid for. After that, you will receive Your 2x2 matrix payouts by AlertPay in addition to the TVI payouts.

The goal of the TVI Global Assist Team is to have You cycle in the $10,000 TVI matrix at least once per month.

Right now they are in prelaunch which means signups and referral placements are handled manually. Admin says he just told a few people about his team maybe two weeks ago and the signup rate is at 300 per day already. In the first week of November the fully automated website will be launched and signups are expected to explode.

If you are planning to sponsor Your referrals Yourself but don't have them ready to join, it is suggested to pay for Your two referrals now and get reimbursed $15 per referral if Your referrals join. You will receive a $15 compensation per referral for each referral above the two you need.

For more information, please visit http://www.tviglobalassistteam.com/?id=2590 .

Keep in mind you can only join if you aren't a TVI member already.

TVIexpress is an obvious pyramid scheme.

The "company" tries to pretend that the business is about selling travels, but if you read their web pages, in particular the FAQ ( http://www.tviexpress.com/faq.php ), it becomes obvious that the whole thing is about recruiting members who will pay in 250 US dollars, and the members are promised that they will thereafter receive money when other members are recruited; In other words a classic pyramid scheme, and clearly illegal according to the laws in most civilised countries in the world.

The company claims to be "a leading multinational conglomerate headquartered in London, United Kingdom", but you will not find it in the UK telephone book ( http://www.192.com/businesses/ ), and the company does not exist at the address stated on the web pages (office building Marble Arch Tower, 55 Bryanston Street, London). You can check this by doing an "advanced search" in the UK directory for businesses at 55 Bryanston Street in London.
If you try to call the telephone number given on their web site, +44-2032899918, nobody answers the telephone.
Additionally, you will not find this "company" if you do a search in the UK company register ( http://www.companieshouse.gov.uk/ ).
So much for a "leading multinational conglomerate headquartered in London"!

One of the persons behind this pyramid scheme is named Ken Russo (see http://faithsloan.com/tag/join-tvi-express/ ).
This person Ken Russo has run, or has been pushing, a number of Ponzi- and pyramid schemes, which is easily seen if you google "Ken Russo" + scam.

Conclusion: An illegal pyramid scheme and guaranteed to collapse. STAY AWAY!!!

This is about the forth thread about this scam. Mods please combine them all or delete if you can. All you need to know here is to stay out of this pyramid.

Agreed,

Might as well move them all to scam thread, they are toast, took the money and ran, a typical with as many red flags as this one had.

Success to all,
