Well, it may be junk. Who knows? The second part of that is... Who cares? The fact is that "the sheep" think it's great. They are jumping on it like crazy. So, I'll spend my $6 bucks to get my share of that pot. I'm in this to make money. It may be a flash in the pan. But I'll spend my $6 to pick up a few $100. And if it doesn't happen...Oh well...it will only have cost me the price of a meal at a fast food joint. Seems to me that some of you have your internet marketing noses lifted a bit too high into the air. After all, money is money.

Facebook has shut it down. From the group Chat to Text wall:

Facebook has removed Chat to Text as an application for a terms of service violation. I would recommend you cancel your subscription with PayPal and request a refund.

If you signed up, you should request a refund.

Something about the whole thing bothered me from the start. Some of my partners in my MLM company were jumping on it and many invited me, but it just didn't "SMELL" right! There was no clear information about the app like the monthly cost, where it could fully be used, etc. Being the techie that I think I am, the fact that it was a new app with no true beta period bothered me.

My point with all of this is ALWAYS GO WITH YOUR FIRST GUT INSTINCT IF IT FLARES UP WITHIN YOU!

I looked at it too. It really didn't appeal to me. I wonder if people are reading the fine print and noticing that it will cost them $5.99 per month, and that doesn't include the text message charges from their cell phone carrier.

i think they knew about the $6. the idea was spend $6, give it time during the first month, and hopefully make back a ton more. the earlier people were probably already looking at commission numbers in the thousands on their app page.

now they get nothing but the headache of having to try to get their $6 back from paypal.

chat to text should send everyone the money back individually via paypal.

but that won't happen.

It was only a matter of time before ChatToText got shut down by FaceBook & PayPal. Traditionally, PayPal has never like MLM companies ... and this is no exception.

It's funny that Mari Ann L. should mention about Web Prosperity. Last week the matrix opened up the the payers ... and it stepped backwards onto its own knife. More than 90% of the people joined Web Prosperity thinking that it would be a "free ride to riches". Well, most people did not pay to join Web Prosperity and the promises made by the head scum bag over there (Mr. David D'Arcangelo) were unfulfilled. When people started screaming fowl over on the WP forums, it was a bloody mutiny for the ones that did pay for their membership. Of course, the captains on the good ship "Web Prosperity" just covered their ears and are just singing the virtues of such a great product. Ha!

I warned the people of impending doom over at my blog @ http://blog.TheMLMTeam.com about WP's head scum bag. Before you join any program, please do your homework.

The same goes for this new "Push Button Extreme" program. No mention of product, and they're making income claims. Tsk tsk! This is the next ship to wash ashore on the rocks.

'Nuff said ... I rest my case.

This is just another quick "easy button / recession fix" for the ppl foolish enough to believe the hype...

I swear, I'm gonna start my own mlm someday.. we'll sell rubber dog poo.. at $30 per piece. And I'll even require a "5 poo autoship" every month.. man, i'll be rakin' in the cash..

(yes, this is a joke.. and if you're considering joining that program you may want to consider just quitting now.. haha)

When I started reading this thread the Face book MLM ap was alive... but even before I post a reply...it's dead!? :lol: As a matter of fact before I checked my email these people were already in and out of business! :lol: :lol:

Man, I wanted to ad more crap talk about the spammer and the sheep...darn it. Guess I'll have to wait til next week for the newest over-hyped, get rich quick MLM.

Wonder if the same spammer will promote that too :roll: .

Actually had this recommended to me by a couple of marketers I respect with screen shots etc. Was checking it out for myself but had it 'vanish' from Facebook as I was doing so.

Hmmm wonder how many $5.99 were collected from people that won't bother chasing it back????
