...Wonderful thread! Surely Pyramid Selling is just another form of 'chain letter'? If someone tries to involve you in one, it's pretty obvious that they're interested your money rather than your friendship. I wouldn't touch it with a bargepole. I was horrified on the two occassions when I was unexpectedly approached (once by a previous next door neighbour and once by a singing teacher!). Needless to say, I declined their offers politely and firmly, but naturally my relationships with these people were never the same again (the neighbour had a marriage break-up and moved, and I got a different music teacher!)
