As a former Quixtar/Amway IBO, I appreciate the efforts the FTC is making to protect against a lack of information presented when a future distributor is being prospected. I can attest that from my experience, my husband and I were not given accurate income information or accurate investment information. I was unaware of any legal proceedings against Quixtar/Amway, and was also told not to research such. It was not until I had left the organization I was involved with, through the AMO Britt World Wide, that I did research such things and discovered the truth about the income potential or lack of, and the truth about the investments required. If I had been given this information up front, it would have saved me thousands of dollars wasted in an opportunity with very little chance of return.
