Is Ameriplan a scam company?

Ameriplan recruits associates in a multilevel marketing structure, a system that is sometimes referred to as a pyramid scheme. While Ameriplan appears to sell a legitimate product, people have complained of job postings that do not make the need to pay an entry fee clear.

Ameriplan associates are encouraged to recruit other associates to work beneath them, and some may be posting ads on Craigslist for work-at-home jobs that do not make clear that the position is not really a job and that an up-front investment is required. Ameriplan is more akin to an independent business opportunity, and the company does not offer regular wages to associates.
