Donate to Pyramid Scheme Alert's
Legal Defense
Pyramid Scheme Alert is a not-for-profit, volunteer organization. A donation to the PSA "Legal Defense Fund" will be used solely to defray legal costs when PSA or its Directors are harassed by pyramid promoters with legal action.
Our current case involves efforts by the Amway/Quixtar scheme that is seeking to suppress the free speech of whistleblower, Eric Scheibeler, a PSA Director. Eric Scheibeler was instrumental in exposing the secret Amway "tools" scheme on NBC Dateline and he published the book Merchants of Deception, about his years in the Amway inner circle.
Increasingly, pyramid scheme promoters are using harassing lawsuits as a tactic to suppress free speech, silence whistle blowers, intimidate consumers that seek restitution or to halt media investigations.
