What that article is describing is a pyramid scheme verbatim.

[Aptus]

To put this in a light that a programmer like myself can understand.

System.out.println(isScam(Lyoness));

True.

A good rule to live by: If someone feels the need to tell you why something isn't a pyramid scheme or scam, it's probably a pyramid scheme or scam.

My employer was recently looking for people to do easy work from home jobs; I didn't post the details here even though I thought about doing so, since as first glance it might look a little scammy.

(It's transcribing English/German speech into text; but it's a Chinese owned company going through the middle of a merger and name change; so the business name on different documents is different; and they plan to pay with paypal...)

But yeah, Lyoness is absolutely a pyramid scheme hiding behind a 'loyalty program' that could be legit on it's own, but I'd feel safer 'investing' in Los Pollos Hermanos.

[Sir Finkus]

Yeah...
Just because you say it isn't a pyramid scheme doesn't mean it isn't.
it is
