He called me before too and now he called with another number. He said he was from Primerica and now something else. I just told him im not interested. He sounds really convincing for a new office opening and looking for people.
My best bet is its just like vector,sumit, fever and every other marketing group that tries to lure people in to investing  and getting nothing out....
keep out and never get in this scam...!

Shortcake clearly didn't understand the link. The CMA was set up by telemarketers to create an ethics code for telemarketers who join to follow. It seems the telemarketer in question has questionable ethics according to these posts.As far as MLM goes, in Canada, "An MLM plan is a plan with three or more levels (the operator and at least two levels of participants) that promotes the supply of a product to participants of the plan. Compensation is earned by participants in the MLM plan based on the supply of the product to participants and/or non-participants of the MLM plan. A legitimate MLM plan focuses on the supply of products rather than the recruitment of prospective participants into the MLM plan and offers products that consumers value and are willing to purchase."http://competitionbureau.gc.ca/eic/site/cb-bc.nsf/eng/03035.html#multi_levelI think people can decide for themselves based on this description whether a particular company is MLM or not.

The number was on my cell as a missed call....thank you Samantha and Alina. I will ignore this and not call back.

In a sidebar to this hoo-hah, here's this week's business news on Primerica:

Citigroup to Sell Last of Its Stake in Primerica
http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2011/12/13/citigr ... rimerica-stake/

"Citigroup ... prepares to sell the last of its remaining shares in the firm it took public last year.
. . . . . . . . . .
Primerica’s stock was down about 6 percent in premarket trading on Tuesday."

Citi Sells Last of its Primerica Shares
http://www.forbes.com/sites/marketnewsvideo/2 ... imerica-shares/

"Citi spun off the provider of insurance, investment and savings products last year. Primerica now serves “Main Street” America as a standalone company, competing with companies like MetLife and Prudential."


So Primerica now has to strike "subsidiary of CitiGroup" from all of its promo copy and sales presentations. It's been reported that sales spielers would try hard not to mention the name "Primerica" until totally necessary. Momma's apron is lifted from its face now, not that hiding behind a Bailout Bank was any great shakes. The Primerica name is part of a long heritage of fraud and name changes, and if the current name is as soiled as certain corporate trolls fear, another rebranding is coming in 2012.

Here's what I've been writing to the WhoCallsMe Team!!Out of curiosity - I keep posting information about the validity of your website - seeing as how you continue to allow posts like the one I'm commenting on to exist - where myself and no one from my office has called.  When someone googles our phone number this trash comes up... Your site is supposed to offer valid information to people who we have 'called' or contacted.  This individual is simply spreading hate and lies.  Our office has been in existence for 7 years - this individual's post, and many before it have been commenting using our phone number and writing ridiculous and malicious comments even though we've never contacted them.  I understand that not everyone is a fan of our company - not everyone is a fan of Whocallsme - but I'm simply asking you, on behalf of my team and office, to remove all the postings, including this one, of people that we haven't called.  Or, please leave my comments and stop deleting them - giving me too the option of "free speech" on your site.Thank You,Ray AnchettaAll that I'm asking of you is that you remove all posts that we DID NOT CALL - let them use other forums or someone else's phone number but not ours.  I, and many of my colleagues, work under this phone number and there are many posts that are misleading, irrelevant or simply untrue and slanderous that

The chance of your life? You are definitely a very close-minded person to assume that. "Quixtar is a multi-level marketing company that sells SOAP and TOOTHRBURSHES!!" Wake up buddy, Primerica is a multi-level marketing company that sells INSURANCE and FINANCIAL SERVICES. Please point out to me where the big difference is. It is not irrelevant as the same basic principles which applied to AmWay/Quixtar apply to other MLM schemes. I advise any and all people to beware of MLM companies, whether they are backed by Citigroup or AmWay. Citi is in the business of making money, Primerica yielded a profit of $544M, it is obvious that it is making money. The difference is WHO is making the money. The "independent representatives" (read: "Independent Business Owners" in Quixtar speak) are not the ones making money. If you've booked an interview - don't worry, you're already hired. Why? Because you are a customer to them, not an employee. As will be everyone that you refer. I can definitely see that you are a hardworking and self-motivated person (read: unemployed?) and it is a scary thought to think that you have a mortgage and a family of three while living on the hopes and dreams of some "amazing" financial freedom that you think a job that requires no experience may yield you. I pity your children, for if my father spoke with the immaturity of you it would be a sad day of reckoning when I saw him for the failure that you are. I was previously a manager for the world's largest consumer packaged goods company, a $100B MNC that has work ten-fold that of your precious Primerica. I currently work in marketing for one of the world's largest internet companies, with the second-most visited site and largest e-mail host in the internet. To think that you would call me a pety "20 year old... living off my parent's dime!!" speaks volumes about the types of people that Primerica is looking for to sell financial services. I would bet you think CFA stands for Corn Flakes 'n Applejuice. Attacks on my character are unwarranted. Get the facts before you try do so, and for the sake of your children at least get some outside information on what you speak before preaching your garbage to the vulnerable of the internet.
