What industry is the biggest scam?

It works if you're one of the first on board and have so little self respect that you try and rope in everybody you have ever made contact with through social media.

Girl I went to school with just went to some huge isagenix conference in the US because she pocketed $500k last year. Constantly on facebook with an isagenix shake lazing around on a boat or on an overseas holiday while posting videos about how easy it all is to never need to work again. Meanwhile, every other single mother in her cadre of lost souls has sweet fuck all to show for anything. Pretty much every single one of them messaged me at some point by starting out asking how I've been since school etc. then about 20 messages over the span of a week they start easing into having some great opportunity that they can let me be a part of. As soon as I tell them I'm not interested in pyramid schemes they all give the exact same responses almost to the letter.

I honestly wonder if they really believe they aren't involved in a rebranded pyramid scheme or if they all get together to figure out what is most effective in tricking people. The funny thing is that they have never once offered any product to buy, the company deals in meal replacement shakes but they never actually seem to sell or even offer to sell any of them.
