Amway WAS indicted years ago, in both the USA and in Canada.  In the USA 
Amway had to change their marketing program; in Canada they had to 
restate what is "wholesale" and what is "retail" since their 
"distributors" are in actuality paying for the "privilege" of buying 
Amway products (most Amway distributors are, in fact, customers, not 
people who make any significant money actually reselling).  As to this 
"Make Money At Home" scheme, it is INDEED illegal since it still uses the 
pyramid scheme, no matter what else is said.  A dog is a dog, whether or 
not you call it a cat.
