Herbalife Moves To Curb Rogue Sites

by Tina Williams • October 13, 2014 • 0 Comments

Herbalife, the diet shake seller being probed over pyramid scheme accusations, is making another move to keep regulators at bay.
The Los Angeles company is banning independent web sites run by US distributors and migrating their businesses to a corporate-controlled hub (goherbalife.com).
The change, which goes into effect Nov. 15, is an attempt to exert more control over Herbalife’s sales force and follows some instances in which distributors were accused of making false health claims about the company’s products.

“The web sites are designed to be in compliance with applicable requirements about product claims and they provide a consistent brand image for Herbalife products,” the company said in its advisory, adding the goal is to “promote a level playing field for all members.”

The Federal Trade Commission opened an investigation into Herbalife after hedge fund activist Bill Ackman lobbied hard for a probe and placed a $1 billion short bet on the company.
Ackman, whose big Herbalife short is now closer to $2 billion, claims the company is a pyramid scheme in which distributors earn more money from recruiting other distributors than by selling products to the end user.
While Herbalife denies the allegations, it has taken steps to address some potential trouble spots, including a

DubLi Responds, Dustin Mitchell Never A Part Of Corporate

by Tina Williams • October 11, 2014 • 0 Comments

DubLi has responded to the recent accusations from Dustin Mitchell :
Similar to other leading network marketing companies, DubLi Inc. and its CEO recently became the target of Dustin Mitchell’s libelous and slanderous attacks.
Mr. Mitchell claims to have served as a senior member of DubLi’s leadership team. He has filed a restraining order against DubLi CEO Michael Hansen, claiming that Mr. Hansen is “stalking” him. He has, on several occasions, attempted to contact several DubLi employees with stories about our position as a public company. He has claimed that the company owes him $12,000. These claims are utterly and demonstrably false.
Contrary to his public posts, Mr. Mitchell has never been a member of DubLi’s corporate staff, much less a member of its management team. Mr. Hansen has never met Mr. Mitchell and has never made any threats against him. While Mr. Mitchell did register to join DubLi, he never made his required payment and has yet to provide documentation or verification of such payment. His online representation of holding a DubLi corporate title as well as his hosting of a variety of social media pages using the company’s corporate names are all in violation of DubLi’s terms and conditions, and constitute a

Is End Of Battle For Herbalife Near?

by Tina Williams • October 8, 2014 • 0 Comments

Senior executives at Herbalife (HLF) are telling investors it’s all but certain the Federal Trade Commission will not shut down the company at the conclusion of its wide-ranging investigation, though they expect some form of disciplinary action, FOX Business Network has learned.
Since March, the FTC has been investigating whether the nutritional supplement outfit operated as an illegal “pyramid scheme,” meaning its sales were largely derived from attracting people to distribute its product, rather than actual sales to customers. The FTC action follows claims by short seller Bill Ackman, who says the company’s business model violates a host of federal and state laws, and that Herbalife should be shut down by the government.
Despite the increased attention on the company, Herbalife executives have been speaking to attorneys, academics and former FTC officials, and have come to the conclusion that the chances of a shutdown are remote, according to people with direct knowledge of the matter. In recent weeks, senior executives have been making the rounds with Herbalife’s top investors and explaining while the FTC’s investigation hasn’t concluded, they feel confident the company will avoid a corporate death sentence.
An Herbalife spokeswoman declined to comment on the matter, but would not deny such conversations

For the first time, a network marketing company is offering fantasy sports games.
