<prompt> Human: Hey all,I may be in the wrong place for this, but I always have trusted the input and advice Ive gotten from rpf. Last week, I met a guy at my gym playing basketball. We got to talking and he asked what I did for a living. I told him I was in IT and we BS-ed for a little longer he said he owned a few businesses in the area. At the end of the conversation he said him and his partner may be looking for people fitting my background for some part-time work and if he could get my number and contact me if something came up. I said what the hell and gave him my number.He texted me a few days later and we then spoke on the phone and he wanted to meet for coffee during the week. We met today and this is how it went:His background was he was planning to go to law school but didnt want to be in that much debt, then became a member of the NYPD, but wasnt making enough money and was working too much. His wife one day took him to a baseball game where she surprised him with box tickets and he met Ed, who eventually became his partner. He says he has partnerships with brandscompanies like Nike, Apple, Bank of America, others doing social media outreach although he gave kind of a general description of what exactly he does. He also dropped the name of the owner of the Orlando Magic basketball team red flag - did some research and the owner of the Magic is Richard DeVos who started Amway. Him and his partner Ed were looking for people like me to work part-time and planning to pay 50-80k another red flag - the guy was driving an older Toyota Avalon, nothing against people who drive that car but if youre going to offer me that kind of money I would definitely expect you to have a nicer car. He then invited me and my girlfriend who was not there but I told him worked in Digital Design to meet his partner Ed next week. The location was a hotel which was their temporary rental office while they are expanding. He then gave me a link to an audio file to listen to called The New Economy by Jordan Keller. Doing some more digging I found that the file link was hosted by URAssociation another red flag.So typing this out definitely brought me to the 100 not going to that meeting next week as Im pretty convinced this is a MLM scheme. But I still wanted to get the opinions of you guys just so I have a second set of eyes on this. Also, if this is a MLM what is their play here? How would they go from saying I could be making 50-80k to getting me to give up my money? What would the meeting next week be like if I attended? Im pretty curiousTLDR: Met guy at the gym. Met him for coffee. Says I could be making 50-80k working part time if he brought me on board. He drives an older Toyota Avalon again nothing against people driving that car but just struck me as a little odd. Wants me to meet his partner at a temporary office hotel. Definitely MLM? If so, whats their play here? How do they now get me to give them my money after saying I could be making 50-80k part time?Thanks in advance as you kind folks help me yet again!edit: Thank you all for the input! Definitely staying away and the guy has been blocked on my phone!!  <response>: Sounds like a MLM scheme. Did he tell you anything about what he actually does to make money? Like what does he sell? What is the name of the company that he works for? ect? A word of caution, MLM schemes usually are purposely vague at the beginning so that they can hook you into it BEFORE you have a chance to google them. Id be cautious if he is not telling you specifics...Also, who offers someone they just met at the gym a 50 to 80k part time job??? Full time would be what...? 100 to 160k for being a random guy working out at the gym? Way to good to be true. Almost definitely a scam or MLM scheme.
