Today someone pitched me on 5Linx telecomm. I went to the website and a video started playing in my browser saying how the 5Links is features in Your business at home Magazine is this even a real magazine? It looks like every other weaksauce lame ass magazine tha tis really just a big paid for advertistment by companies pretending they got featured in a real mag on a bookstore shelf.

5Linkx smells scammy and the other companys popping up are isagenix and fhtm and i havent heard a good thing about either one of htose companys. Is everything in thi smagazine just fluff so that the company can hand it out and use ot to try and say theyre featured in a national magazine which isn't really a national magazine?

What exactly are the "5LINKX" and what is do they sell for telecomm?

That's about as accurate a summary as I'd have given. 5LINX is one of those companies that tries to throw necessity-based products at you that we all need in our day to day lives, oddly, ranging from telecommunications via digital home phone service setup that supposedly provides unlimited local and long distance in the U.S., Canada, U.S. Virgin Islands,  Puerto Rico and a whole bunch of other areas. It also promises to include free landline calls to 75 "calling areas", not sure what they mean by that. In addition to this, the company also provides wireless phones, satellite television, Broadband Internet service, and a video phone. I'm not sure what good it would do though, since 95% of the people I know aren't "Jetsons".

They have the usual line up of calling plans and packages for all kinds of prices depending on the service you want and products you buy. I definitely feel that this seems scammy, I don't know if there could be a potential 5linkx scam, but I haven't exactly searched the net yet. The company seems to focus on the immediate communications needs of small business, which I actually think is pretty cool, but trying to sell something like this could be difficult without finding people in the process of starting a small business, and in today's economy, how common is that exactly?

I'm not going to say 5linkx is a scam, I think its sort of cheesy, already been done, and probably a bad idea for most of us (not all), but so far I am not seeing much in the complaint department, though there is still time I guess.

It's probably a scam lol. I'm just kidding, I pretty much think everything is scam. I do think its funny though that when I typed the word in Google, I got as far as the N and "5linx Scam" automatically appeared lolz.

Anywho, here is what I got..

I'm finding alot more good than bad, and a whole lot of obviously biased bashing from people who admittedly work for competing companies. There is also no shortage of those suction posts, you know the ones where they are titled like: "5linx Scam, don't join until you read this!" only to click on it and read a rave review written by an obviously biased affiliate. All MLM companies seem to have those though, so its no big deal. The most common accusation is that its a simple pyramid scheme, which, I may be inclined to agree with to some degree.

One complaint involved a guy attending a 5linx meeting, he was "guaranteed" (love how people over use this word in their description of an event) to rake in 50k a month, so he paid his $500 start up fee (sorry you are retarded to pay that much for any MLM) and found a $3000 charge on his credit card. When he called up Andre Maronian to ask what the charge was about, Andre responded that "he needed the money, and would pay him back" lmao wtf! I could barely get through that one I was laughing so hard. I don't know if I believe that story, but either way I think its hilarious.

I really can't find enough bad stuff about 5linx to say there is a 5linx scam, but I wouldn't exactly go in with the confidence that I'm at Bank of America, and that aint saying much lol....

Besides, who couldn't trust a guy like this lol?
