Invesment Opportunity or RED Flag.

I randomly met a girl at a co-working space. I initiated the first conversation by asking, 'What do you do for a living?' She replied, 'I’m not working, I’m doing business in cost reduction and cost management for some companies. Once they gain profit, we get a share of that profit.' I was very interested in the topic and told her that I wanted to get involved. Now, I’m getting a call from her, saying that I need to invest up to 3 lakhs for a membership or dealership card. This will give me access to a team that can guide companies on cost management, helping them gain profit. Out of that profit, this group may get a share. How true is it?

Usual MLM scam. They will scam you and then you will be forced to scam others.

Even I attended a Zoom call with them. Another girl joined, speaking in a posh accent, asking about life goals, dreams, where I see myself in 10 years, and what my wish list is.

We are middle-class people. We never grow unless we resign from our jobs and start doing business—some kind of brainwashing thing, I understand. Finally, I asked them to show me their business model instead of just talking. They are not showing me anything. What they said is that I attended the Zoom call, and there will be two rounds. Once I am selected for those two rounds, then they will share the business model. After that, I have to invest up to 3 lakhs—something like that.

I’m feeling terrible and anxious, not sure what to do now. I’m confused and don’t understand. If anyone has details, please let me know more.

Red flags all over. There is no easy money. They don't have a business model. Period. Stay away from scammers.
