Comments:
To whom it concerns, My husband and I support the FTC in cracking down on illegitimate business opportunities that lure people into their lies and schemes. However, I do not support every detail of the proposed rule currently in progress. My thoughts for the rule are as follows...the rule: -Should create a level playing field by requiring clear, simple, and standardized income disclosures that apply to all direct sellers. -Should provide a reasonable cancellation policy. -Should NOT require a seven-day waiting period before a prospect could register. -Should NOT require IBO references be provided to prospects or disclosures of past litigation. (this truly proves nothing of value) -Should NOT require financial records to be disclosed to prospects. I appreciate you taking the time to read our concerns and we applaude your efforts to clean up the open market for scams and illegitimate business conduct. Thank you!
