Reuters Reports On Herbalife, Says Ackman’s Attacks Fails To Resonate In Nutrition Clubs
by Tina Williams • • 0 Comments
The following article reported by Reuters recently shares the Ackman vs Herbalife fiasco in a rather objective manner. Ultimately, his claims aren’t resonating with Herbalife members or nutritional club owners.
New York hedge fund manager William Ackman says Herbalife is a pyramid scheme that exploits the poor. He has taken a $1 billion bet against the company’s stock and spent millions on research to attack the nutritional supplements seller, including making a video showing former distributors who claim they were deceived and lost money trying to sell its products.
Yet a visit to some of the clubs that have been set up to dispense the company’s shakes, teas and other items, largely to the Hispanic community in the U.S., shows that it has fans. These are consumers who stress their health has improved and distributors who are thankful to have the opportunity to run their own businesses.
In conversations at 10 such clubs that Reuters reporters visited in recent weeks in the Los Angeles area, New York and Newark, New Jersey, more than 20 people said they had lost a substantial amount of weight while consuming Herbalife products. These claims could not be verified by Reuters but if true the comments cast a favorable light on

Court Order To Take Control Of Banners Broker Issued
by Tina Williams • • 0 Comments
The website of suspected pyramid scheme Banners Broker was down yesterday as investigators received a court order to go after assets linked to the firm in Canada.
Around 12,000 Irish people invested in the scheme and collectively handed over millions of euro.
The company, which claimed it could make people rich though online advertising, suffered a major blow earlier this year after liquidators were appointed to Banners Broker International Ltd (BBIL), which was based in the Isle of Man.
This week the liquidators obtained a court order to take control of anything owned by BBIL and to compel its Canadian based operators to reveal the whereabouts of the company’s assets.
Court papers reveal the growth of the company, how it moved its assets and the efforts by investors to recover their funds.
Affidavits filed with the court said: “An online cloud-based business, BBIL’s operations were international in scope and its physical presence in any one jurisdiction was negligible.”
Irish people were among the first to be duped by the scam. Banners Broker Ireland Ltd was set up in December 2011.
Under an agreement the Irish operation was entitled to 5 per cent of all sales in Ireland and 7 per cent if it hit a turnover of more than
