Amway Agrees to Largest-Ever $225M FTC MLM Settlement
x/washington-state
— 9h
The FTC and Washington state have reached a $225 million settlement with Amway and two affiliates over deceptive earnings claims and recruitment practices in MLM, with most funds to be returned to affected consumers and extensive changes to compliance including auditing and tighter limits on training fees. This represents the largest monetary recovery in an FTC action against an MLM, and the case underscores heightened scrutiny of direct-selling practices.
