It is my considered opinion that 'Life Tree World' is the legally-registered corporate-front for a classic, closed-market swindle (a.k.a. Pyramid Scam), dissimulated as an 'income opportunity.' Even the briefest examination of this dissimulated criminal enterprise reveals it has no significant, or sustainable, source of revenue other than its own participants. The instigators of 'LTW' are economic alchemists peddling the self-perpetuating, crackpot pseudo-economic theory/lie that endless recruitment + endless payments by the recruits = endless profits for the recruits. Common-sense dictates that due to their artificially-high fixed-price, and wide-availability at significantly-lower prices in traditional retail outlets, the deceptively-banal products offered by 'LTW' are effectively-unsaleable on the open-market. Consequently, their purchase from 'LTW' cannot be lawful retail transactions based on value and demand. The purchase of products from 'LTW' can only be an unlawful investment payment laundered as a lawful retail sale, because such transactions are self-evidently based on the false-expectation of future reward. UK trading schemes legislation, which was partly-influenced by agents of the UK DSA (including 2 UK Members of Parliament), does not accurately formulate the universal identifying characteristic of Pyramids and Ponzis, nor does it clearly explain why all Pyramids and Ponzis (no matter how they are camouflaged) are frauds. The appropriate legislation to invoke in any prosecution of the instigators of 'LTW' would be the UK Fraud Act, 2006.
