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.

The bottom of the barrel in the financial services industry, with the lowest commission payouts and highest turnover rate. Because it is a pyramid scheme, a large amount recruiting is required by a variety of means, which includes pressuring relatives and friends, approaching shoppers in Wal-Mart parking lots, going door to door, and even joining church groups with the express purpose of targeting new marks.

Interesting how the primertards, who claim to be making the big money, spend their time trolling sites like this promoting their scam - obviously the morons have nothing to better to do and aren't making anything at all.  Sign up for Grossman's scam today - that huge $5000/year income awaits:

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."

I think people can decide for themselves based on this description whether a particular company is MLM or not.

just an FYI to all who read this forum. isn't it funny that a VP of Primerica has to search these websites to try and sell the company to everyone. Doesn't a VP of a company have a lot on their hands??? shouldn't they be more concerned with the work that they have and not jumping on the internet to up-play the company they work for????

i'm a little confused about Billy Wong's post. if it is such a great company wont people already know?? why are you on this web-site if its such a great company with such great opportunities???

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 Anchetta

All 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
