I got a call from this guy yesterday. Set up an interview for tomorrow. Said he got my information from someone who referred me for a job and he wants to interview me for a leadership role in the company. I always get suspicious when anyone mentions Primerica so I thought I would google his name. I am so glad I found this site. I am not going to the interview after this.

Thanks everyone!!!

I just got a call from Tal Grossman as well. I was guaranteed that this was not a sales position but a professional leadership role. I know this is probably some kind of scam but I will attend the interview anyways just to see how "professional" everything is.

I will keep you guys updated

I agree with those that say MLM is a bad deal for most people. It's "endless chain" compensation and recruiting. MLMs typically telemarket all hours of the day, weekends, holidays, and are taught to prospect and recruit 24/7. Your friends will avoid you if you bring this shiite up to them. <p>They teach people that your friends are losers if they don't join. People get obsessed because of the groupthink training sessions where they get your endorphins firing. 90%+ lose money in MLMs. Products are usually mediocre and better and cheaper elsewhere. Markets are often already saturated with people who have been harassed by MLM telemarketers. You work harder for longer hours, weekends and holidays included, but you don't get paid for that work, you only get paid to make a sale. You might work for a week just to get one sale, then you get a very tiny cheque because 6 or more people and the company also have to get paid from that sale. MLM is a really bad business model, but they lobby government and make donations to politicians so they can influence the laws in the country. <p>A lot of off-the-street types who are down-and-out join, but just lose more.<p>Check with www.the-cma.org to see if they are registered and abide by the CMA rules for marketing. If they are, you can file a complaint. If not listed, ask yourself why?<p>

Bad reputation. Have no professional experience and no leadership or market knowledge. Too much focus on recruiting and no focus on skill building. Everyone wants to recruit so their recruits can set appointments for them. Limited amount of products. In their training they outwardly promote recruiting stooges, just to get their "list" of warm market, and they don't care if that person quits or fails (as they always do), as long as they get that persons "list" first.

Mr. Grossman called me too -- for Team Leader. I knew I didn't want to go, but he was pressuring me on the phone so I said yes (always intending to back out last minute). Oh well! I'm not going to appear, and he can just see what he thinks about that. I'm guessing he won't be surprised.Primerica is a legitimate company with suspicious tactics. I do not want my conscience to be tainted with guilt for similarly pressuring people to be recruited to something I do not believe in -- just to support myself? No thanks. I want a job where people can respect me and not the other way around.Needless to say, my first reaction when I heard that this Mr. Grossman was from Primerica was disgust.

If you are being harassed or extorted call your local police department--not an attorney. They have special tasks forces, or they will contact your local FBI department  that works with wire fraud, which is what these calls fall underneath due the fact they called you on a phone. They will give you the information/advice  you need to help you.
