Also this is interesting:
As part of the sweep, Attorney General Foti announced that his office
has filed suit against Brent Holland and Dreamlife, L.L.C. d/b/a Power
Plus MPG and DreamLife Products. The Attorney General's Office alleges
that Dreamlife, L.L.C. has operated an illegal business opportunity in
the marketing and selling of Power Plus MPG distributorships. The
company, operating out of St. Tammany Parish, sell kits to people who
wish to start distributorships of PowerPlus MPG products. The product
that is included in the kits are Puppies, powders or liquids that are
advertised to increase vehicle gas mileage. The Attorney General's
Office alleges that the products may not work as advertised and may be
harmful to engines. By providing a business opportunity to Louisiana
consumers without complying with specific provisions of the Louisiana
Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law, Dreamlife, L.L.C.,
PowerPlus MPG and Brent Holland have allegedly committed unfair trade
practices. Specifically, Dreamlife, L.L.C. failed to register it's
business opportunity with the Attorney General's office and post
seller's and agent's surety bonds with the Attorney General's office.
December 13, 2006: (Baton Rouge, LA) Louisiana Attorney General Charles
C. Foti, Jr., today announced Project FAL$E HOPE$, a federal and state
law enforcement sweep targeting bogus business opportunities and
work-at-home scams. The crackdown includes more than 100 law enforcement
actions by the Federal Trade Commission, the Department of Justice, the
United States Postal Inspection Service, and law enforcement agencies
in 11 states, including Louisiana.
I want to take this opportunity to
remind all those who wish to operate business opportunities that they
must register with our office and post a surety bond. To provide
business opportunities to Louisiana consumers without properly
registering and obtaining a bond is an unfair trade practice and can be
prosecuted under the Louisiana Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer
Protection Law, Attorney General Foti stated.
Bogus business opportunities trample on
Americans' dreams of financial independence, said FTC Chairman Deborah
Platt Majoras. If a business opportunity promises no risk, little
effort, and big profits, it almost certainly is a scam. These scams
offer only a money pit, where no matter how much time and money is
invested, consumers never achieve the riches and financial freedom
promised.
When the states and the federal government, civil and criminal
enforcers, all work together sharing information, partnering
resources, and coordinating our efforts we can make very significant
progress against these unlawful businesses, said Peter D. Keisler,
Assistant Attorney General for the Justice Department's Civil Division.
He went on to describe 23 fraud convictions obtained in 2006, and the
sentencing of 23 defendants to a total of over 150 years' imprisonment
for causing over $86,000,000 in consumer loss.
Project FAL$E HOPE$ includes new cases announced today, developments in
existing cases, criminal convictions, and state actions, as well as new
education materials for advertising sales staff on screening ads for
bogus business opportunities.
As part of the sweep, Attorney General Foti announced that his office
has filed suit against Brent Holland and Dreamlife, L.L.C. d/b/a Power
Plus MPG and DreamLife Products. The Attorney General's Office alleges
that Dreamlife, L.L.C. has operated an illegal business opportunity in

Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law, Dreamlife, L.L.C.,
PowerPlus MPG and Brent Holland have allegedly committed unfair trade
practices. Specifically, Dreamlife, L.L.C. failed to register it's
business opportunity with the Attorney General's office and post
seller's and agent's surety bonds with the Attorney General's office.
The Attorney General's Office has received a temporary restraining order
against Brent Holland and Dreamlife, L.L.C. d/b/a Power Plus MPG and
DreamLife Products. A hearing for a preliminary injunction is scheduled.
The Federal Trade Commission announced nine new cases, and three new
referrals to DOJ for filing, as well as developments in another 13
cases. DOJ also obtained numerous criminal convictions as part of the
sweep, putting business opportunity scammers behind bars. In the past
year, USPIS was active against business opportunity scams perpetrated
through the mail, obtaining cease and desist orders, restitution, and
other remedies.
State law enforcement actions were announced by the Arizona Attorney
General's Office; California Attorney General's Office; California
Department of Corporations; Connecticut Department of Banking,
Securities and Investments Division; Florida Department of Agriculture
& Consumer Services; Indiana Attorney General's Office; Kentucky
Attorney General's Office; Louisiana Attorney General's Office; Maryland
Attorney General's Office, Securities Division; Texas Attorney
General's Office; Washington State Department of Financial Institutions,
Securities Division; and Wisconsin Department of Financial
Institutions. The Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and
Consumer Protection also personally warned consumers to beware of bogus
business opportunities.
A new guidance for publishers offers them help to screen out deceptive
ads for business opportunities. The alert, Ads for Business
Opportunities: How to Detect Deception, suggests advertising sales
staff to give an extra look at ads that make claims such as:
No risk! Guaranteed Quick and Easy! Earn $2,000 a month.
The alert warns that legitimate business ventures involve risks,
start-up businesses require a lot of work to get off the ground, and
that the law requires earnings claims in ads be accompanied by the
number and percentage of previous purchasers who achieved the income.
If you believe you are a victim of a business opportunity scam or would

Attorney General's Consumer Protection Hotline at 1-800-351-4889.
