Me too, but the low life dogs are usually married.............oh wait, you
said FOR not WITH......come to think of it the 'teachable' part sort of
makes the whole darned thing null and void...nevermind. I need to go get my
glasses, these false hopes are getting harder and harder.

Readers, beware of mystery job offers over the Internet.

http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/sultan1.html
The Boys from Brunei really know how to party. According to a lawsuit filed
by ex-Miss USA Shannon Marketic, portions of which are reproduced here, that
country's billionaire rulers regularly import American women for six-week
stints as high-paid hookers. Marketic, a devout Christian, claims she was
unaware that, in exchange for $127,200, women were expected to serve the
Sultan and his rowdy friends. The 27-year-old actress/model initially sued
the Los Angeles "talent agency" she says recruited her, as well as the
Sultan of Brunei (identified here as Haji Hassanal Bolkiah) and his brother,
Prince Jefri. But a federal judge last month ruled that the Sultan, one of
the world's richest men, cannot be sued due to the immunity afforded a head
of state. Along with portions of the lawsuit, we've also included a Marketic
biography and a document describing the financial package offered by the
talent agency. (12 pages)

I. METHODS OF PROCURING WOMEN

Women who become the victims of international sexual slavery are procured by
kidnapping, purchase, or with fraudulent inducements for jobs and a better
life.

[skipping down]

C. THE PROMISE OF A JOB

Another method of procuring women for forced prostitution in a foreign
country is by false promises of work. Many foreign prostitutes in Japan seem
to have been brought to Japan by this method. Yeko Takeoka, a Japanese
lawyer, and Sister Naoka Iyri, a nun, testified before the Human Rights
Commission of the United Nations in 1989 that, among the approximately
three -hundred thousand women working in Japan, ninety-three percent had
been promised jobs as entertainers, but ended up being used as prostitutes.

White American women are among the foreign women forced into prostitution in
Japan. One Japanese organized crime syndicate uses West Coast talent
agencies to place advertisements to lure these women to Japan. The agencies
advertise jobs of seemingly legitimate productions and shows in Japan. Some
of the women who respond to the advertisement are selected, and they are
contacted by an "agent". They are promised a specific salary, told where and
when they will be performing in Japan, and given pre-paid plane tickets.
However, upon arrival, the women are met by a different agent, who informs
them that he has bought their contracts from their former "agent". The
women's passports and other identification documents are taken away, and
they are forced to work as prostitutes. Unfortunately many Americans are
unaware of this growing problem.

To increase their legitimacy, Japanese gangsters, called Yakuza, have made
inroads into the lawful business world. Fn31 This tends to increase their
power and ability to participate in the international prostitution business.
Japanese gangs may even have some link to American organized crime. The
collaboration between Japanese and American organized crime "families" makes
it difficult to stop the Yakuza's traffic of women without some type of
cooperation between the countries.

Even Mexican women are lured into the United States with the promise of
employment, but upon arrival in the U.S. they are forced to work as
prostitutes. Most of them were promised jobs as barmaids, but ended up as
sex slaves for Mexican migrant workers.

The Dallas Morning News reported one Chinese woman's terrifying experience
of being kidnapped to Burma under the false pretenses of employment:

When she [Fong] was 16, a monk visited her village in southern China. He
said she could make two hundred dollars a month as a sales clerk in a
Burmese border town - a huge sum of for a girl who sometimes went hungry.
Instead of the wonderful new life, after a three day trip to the Thai-Burma
border, she was sold to a brothel agent for six hundred dollars. When she
saw the money change hands, Fong said she was terrified. But she didn't know
where she was, she had no money and she did not even speak Thai. Fong was
taken to a Bangkok teahouse where a Thai man paid her owner two hundred and
eighty dollars for the privilege of taking away her virginity. "I almost
fainted. I almost killed myself," she says. Her value as a virgin spent,
Fong was shifted to a massage parlor at the beach resort of Pattay. There,
she joined 30 to 40 other girls in a glass room wearing numbers, so that
customers could choose among them. The brothel owner bought her clothes. The
other women "trained her," she says, how to dress, how to give a man a bath,
how to do the required things, step by step, so that her skills became her
job. Like most women in locked brothels, Fong received no money, except
tips. Pimps guarded the doors. If she refused to have sex with drunken
customers, she was beaten . . . . One of the few excepted excuses for
refusing sex was that a woman was having her menstrual period. But when Fong
tried to stretch that excuse for more than a few days, she says, the massage
parlor owner would make her take off her underwear so he could see if she
was telling the truth. Fong managed to escape after six months. By bus, she
made it back across the country to Mae Sai. But, before she could cross into
Burma, one of the army of procurers found her and sold her to another
brothel. "Being recaptured was almost as terrifying as her first customer,"
she said. Eventually, a Taiwanese customer paid the owner of the second
brothel four hundred dollars to free her, and sent her to the Chinese
embassy in Bangkok."

Filipino women are also enslaved as prostitutes in other countries. Aurora
Javante de Dios, an expert on the slavery of Filipino women, said, "Slavery
now is more sophisticated, more globalized, and more technical than ever.
Women can be recruited for domestic jobs, and end up as prostitutes in Japan
and the Middle East. Slavery is now integrated into our countries'
economies."

HerbalLife presentations, don't listen to those scams

I would also like to discourage new potential Herbalife customers from
getting involved with this company.
From what I have learned so far, it is very, very difficult to profit as an
Herbalife distributor.

Herbalife: Scum sucking leeches
http://www.highprogrammer.com/alan/rants/herbalifescam.html
If your neighborhood is increasingly covered with "Work at Home!" signs,
you're seeing Herbalife's work. Every once in a while one of Madison's
Herbalife distributors covers every possible surface with this crap in an
effort to drum up business.

Technically this junk doesn't come from Herbalife, but from their
"independent distributors". Herbalife uses this thin layer of idiots to
protect itself from legal repercussions. But Herbalife damn well knows
people do it. Herbalife officially is against this behavior, but
unofficially they don't care what a individual distributors do.

It's easy to spot a Herbalife ad. It will promise the opportunity to make
extra money, to work at home, to be your own boss. It will have a toll free
number to call for more information. It might list a web site. If you call
the toll free number you'll get a prerecorded message with a lot of vague
information about working at home, some misleading statistics about home
business profits, and absolutely no concrete information on what the
business is. If you visit the web site you'll find similar information. If
you're lucky it might hint that it involves weight loss, personal health,
herbal supplements, or similar fuzzy terms popular with the unregulated
herbal medicine industry. At the end you'll get a "If you're serious about
making money and home, provide us with your phone number and we'll call you
back." To hear a typical pre-recorded announcement, call 800-846-0322. To
see a typical web site, check out these losers.

What does Herbalife sell? Primarily vitamin supplements and herbal weight
loss pills. The herbal kind, the sort that has no real scientific testing
and is mostly unregulated by the Food and Drug administration. This sort of
crap doesn't have a terribly large market, only suckers. So Herbalife found
an innovative business model: convince those same suckers to become work at
home "distributors". Charge these suckers for training materials and set up
costs. Charge these suckers for toll free phone numbers and web sites to
contact for more information. Require them to buy product for sale up front.

Of course, once a sucker has bought in, they'll discover they can't actually
move the crap Herbalife is pushing. To keep them involved Herbalife offers
them a new technique that really does make money. The same technique
Herbalife itself uses: fool suckers into becoming distributors. That's why
you almost never see ads actually selling Herbalife, but you see millions of
ads suggesting you "Work at Home!!!" (If you see this sort of cheap signage
advertising "I lost 200 lbs, ask me how!!!" you're probably looking at one
of the rare people actually trying to sell Herbalife's product.) This
repeats itself, layer of suckers over layer of suckers, forming a classic
pyramid scheme. (Amway sales-weasels prefer the term "Multi Level
Marketing." Shit or feces, it still stinks.)

Just after high school a friend of mine fell for this scam, or at least one
very similar to it. At the time I didn't know the details, but I knew he was
trying to pull me into a scam. (I don't think he was trying to scam me, he
was probably just an innocent dupe.) I now regret not taking the time to see
the bogus presentation, it would have given me a chance to point out to my
friend that he was being deceived.

So, there are two types of Herbalife distributors: suckers, and the truly
evil. I expect most are just suckers, people who have been duped into
believing in a false dream. If Herbalife deserves our hated, it's because it
take innocent people with dreams and feeds them bullshit. Of course, some,
the truly successful distributors, have become masters of bringing in new
suckers. After a few years they can't possibly truly believe in their
products. They know the real money is in convincing other people to buy in,
then lose their investment. These professional "distributors" know they are
harming innocent people trying to get a leg up in the world, and these
distributors continue to do it. A special place in Hell is reserved for
these scum.

One of the other benefits of having "independent distributors" is that
Herbalife has a handy legal shield from being prosecuted for these shady
sales tactics. If a single company was responsible for this littering and
illegal sign posting it would be easy to prosecute them. But the guilty
parties are just dozens of foolish individuals. Tracking down and
prosecuting each one of the army isn't feasible. Herbalife is guilty of
encouraging these crimes, but it's hard to prove it. They make a big show of
kicking out distributors who are caught, but the unspoken message is, "Do
what you much, just don't get caught."
