Welcome to UnplugLTDTools

At UnplugLTDTools, we are dedicated to raising awareness about the deceptive trade practices of LTD. Our founder, TJ Musumhi, a former member of LTD, was recruited in 2016 by Amway Platinums Daniel & Thao Goebel. LTD is a training and motivational organization affiliated with Amway, and we are determined to shed light on the false income and time commitment claims presented at LTD meetings. Our mission is to free the minds of those who have been victims of LTD's deceptive trade practices.

Note: Amway Distributers are taught to make false lifestyle claims about their recruiters/mentors in order to lure prospects. Be aware, the majority of lifestyle claims made by Amway Distributers is FAKE. Making false lifestyle claims about an upline/recruiter is ILLEGAL. 

When someone is being recruited into a business opportunity, the law requires the information they are given to be truthful and accurate. That includes any claims about a person's lifestyle, income success, cars, houses, or achievements. 

If a recruiter says someone is making a certain amount of money, living a certain lifestyle, or achieving a certain level of success when it's not true, that becomes a deceptive earnings claim. 

Under the FTC ACT and State Consumer-Protection Laws, it is illegal to use false stories or exaggerated lifestyles to influence someone's decision to join. You cannot legally convince someone to sign up by presenting fake succes, inflated income, or a lifestyle the person doesn't actually have. 

Simply put: 

You can't lie or exaggerate about someone's success to get a prospect excited. 

If the lifestyle isn't real, the claim is illegal.

LTD Respones to Questions From Prospects 

👆This illegally violates the FTC ACT. Legally, if someone were to ask Amway Distributers if they are innvolved with Amway, they must admit they are involved with Amway. That doesn't mean Amway Distributers are automatically required to reveal their "trade secrets" on how they build their Amway Distributership. It means they must reveal the opportunity they are involved with is the Amway opportunity. Not doing so is misrepresentation, and it violates the FTC Act.

If someone asks:

"Is this Amway?"

..and the recruiter says:

• "No",
• "Not really,"
• "It's something different,"
• "Just trust the process,"
• "Do you mean selling or recruiting? Than no,"
• "I don't know what that is,"
• or avoids the question entirely 

That is misrepresentation; knowingly giving false or misleading answers. 

Misrepresentation is explicitly illegal under:

• the FTC Act
• every state consumer-protection statute
• business opportunity rules

There is no legal wiggle room on this.
