Month: July 2022

Hello Houston, I hope everyone is ready for the weekend. Stay Hydrated.

Today I am bringing you another one of these MLM Scams. Originally I had thought that I would find maybe 2-3 of these. There are more than 2-3. Now you might say “Well, we kind of know what to look out for now”, but these scammers are very adept at masking their operations. So if I see ones that really stick out, and pretend to be something they are not, I will post it.

Today’s clown show is called Five Nine Solutions Inc. They are located in Yorktown Plaza on W Alabama St. I am not sure if they are a franchise of Smart Circle, Credico or Cydcor. But they are, again , like always, one of your “WE ARE GONNA HELP YOU BECOME A BUSINESS MASTERMIND AND OWN YOUR OWN BUSINESS” type of recruitment pyramid scheme.

What is a recruitment pyramid scheme? Its a position in which you are lured in with the promise of a comfortable paycheck, but have to do door to door sales( or stand in walmarts/sam’s clubs) and build your team to move up in the company. How do you build your team? You recruit people. From the tens of hundreds of interviews these jokers get in a month, they will try to keep as many of them as possible. It is your responsibility as a worker of one of these scams to lie through your teeth to keep these poor people sucked into the funnel. When you have a certain amount of recruits you move up in the company. And afterwards when your recruits move up, you also move up. Hence the pyramid. You pay with your time, energy, gas, and even money at times.

Now that that’s out of the way, lets get into it.

These guys sell At&t door to door. They dress up in suits and play “business people” in the morning before getting stuffed into cars and hauled out to random lower income zipcodes around the city. They go as south as Texas City, and as north as Conroe. The “owner” (whose name i wont give because i dont want the post taken down, but he is super easily identifiable after a quick search) makes himself seem like an amazing business owner that gives hundreds of people opportunities, yet is simply another one of these cronies that is trying to secure his own pocket.

It is either full commission or $10 an hour with a cap at $432 per week. Your car will breakdown from driving around. You are not reimbursed for gas, or food. The working hours are stated as 8:30-5:00 but in reality its 7 am to 8 pm. New workers are forced to write 5 star reviews on google. If you read in between the lines, the 5 star reviews say the exact same thing. Its very obvious that they have some sort of a script.

They make you go through a 3-day interview process, only based on your personal qualifications, not professional qualifications. They will advertise themselves as a marketing agency, but they are a Sales company that bleeds your average person dry. As an actual marketer, every time i see them put themselves out there as a marketing agency it makes my skin crawl.

Once you are hired, you are given a script filled with manipulation techniques so you can go ahead and sell At&t to people who are small business owners. The packages you sell to them have hidden costs that screw over your small business owner at the end of the day. Expect calls from angry business owners about how you screwed them over.

The owner is from the bay area, first moved to Tennessee and opened a scam office there. And then decided to come down to our beautiful Houston and open an office here. He prominently displays himself as a big business guy and is very actively creating some sort of cult of personality within his office. So if you see his face plastered around the website and on the business social media profiles pay attention to the wording and the captions.

Here is an honest review on google : ” If I could give them 0 start . This company are literally a scam in disguise . They will not be upfront with you . They will waste your time by giving you the back and forth interview rounds . To finally propose you the penny offer .

So unprofessional. Also most of this reviews must be fake “

​

Thank you guys as always.

TLDR; Five nine solutions inc is a scam. Jobseekers beware.
