I work as a corporate lawyer. I will explain how this works in this comment, but first **LEAVE**. Tell your friend not to contact this person anymore. It is a cognizable offence to partake (either run, contribute, or receive money) from a pyramid/mlm scheme. Your friend must **IMMEDIATELY** lodge a complaint with his nearest police station, to avoid being charged with a crime when this scheme eventually busts and they track down all the participants. Also file a complaint online with the RBI. \[Tap on the Help Your Regulator button and fill out all details. I am pretty sure its anonymous\]

# Participating monetarily in a pyramid scheme is a CRIME under Indian law. If your friend has GIVEN OR TAKEN money from/to this scheme, he has participated in this scheme.

Read the [RBI Notification on this](https://www.rbi.org.in/commonman/English/scripts/PressReleases.aspx?Id=1514).

This is not an MLM. It is a pyramid scheme. The difference is that an MLM runs by selling fake/fraudulent products at a markup, while a pyramid scheme is a fake investment scheme.

Its a basic pyramid scheme, they're incentivising him to bring in more people, so with those people's money they can pay him his share.

Let me explain:
A pays 25k to the owner of the scheme
A gets his friend B to join too, paying 25k to the owner of the scheme
Owner pays that 10% to A after a week.
A gets very happy, tells all his friends C,D,E to join
Once C,D,E join and pay him 25k
Owner will destroy his sim card and ghost you all.

This scam has been running on for generations, there is ONE scenario (highly unlikely) that your friend can escape unscathed. If, he is one of the FIRST people to join the scheme, the scheme might run long enough with newer and newer people that he can get all his money back. However, this only applies to the first 3 or so people who joined the scheme. Regardless, if they are caught, and the owner has a list of his bakras, your friend may very well run rounds of the courts for a couple of years. Follow all that I told you above, and you may not need to even speak to a lawyer.

Budget? Also what kind of fragrances do you like?

giving the mic to two people while everyone in the group sings? Noh thanks.... I'd ask my child to leave if I were a parent. No child deserves to feel unimportant.
