I smell MLM

Post by alex »

On a SCORCHING HOT sunday afternoon, i was approached by a youth clad in OVERALL office attire OUTSIDE PS.Just to take a survey(wtf?)or to exude an ambiguous air of professionalism?

Basically, the questions revolves around what i am doing now(In academic context), how much i would like to earn in the future.You should get the drift.They wanted my contact number as well.

My intuition tells me its MLM.What do you guys think :roll: :?:

P.S:There was a hot chick there

If it's a proper survey, they should never want your contact details, only your demographical information (e.g. age, gender, job line/academic inclination, area where you live etc).

So if they ever ask for your email/phone number etc, always refuse.

IC? Everyone and their dog asks for it and everyone gives it too freely.

This is definitely MLM.

There's 1 guy (young also) who approached my client during training and said will only need a minute of his time for a survey.

1) School where currently.
2) Want to earn $?
3) Contact no.

But of coz, he left a fake contact no.

I've hardly ever been asked for my IC. You must shop in different (sleazier?) places...

Haha, I doubt it... Challenger, Cali, clubfitt, planet, kino. I suppose you could call some of these places sleazy...
