Todd Rowland Promotes Fhtm Illegal Pyramid Scheme By: Luis Valesquez | Nov 7th 2010 - Critics of Fortune, including the Montana Commissioner of Securities and the plaintiffs in a new lawsuit seeking class-action status, say Fortune is a "pyramid scheme" because salespeople are primarily paid for recruiting, not product sales, and more recent recruits can't earn anything close to what the early entrants do. Fortune has until Nov. 8 to respond to the lawsuit seeking class-action status. Tags:fhtm, todd rowland, pyramid scheme, class action, fraud
