Comments:
Dear Sir or Madam: I am strongly opposed to Business Opportunity Rule R511993. It could prevent me from continuing as a distributor/affiliate with 4-ecorp. I have been an independent Distributor/Affiliare for one month now, and I am very satisfied with my company's legitimacy and integrity. The company is just over 60 days old and has a product that will save people money and be beneficial to the environment. I do not have many options except to work from home.4-ecorp is the most viable and honest business I have ever worked. This 7 day waiting period will give the public the idea that there is something wrong with me or my company. My company already offers a free position to the consumer. The consumer can decide if they just want to purchase the product, join the business or do nothing at all. The entry cost to my company is only $399.00, and that covers product/service cost for me to run my business. People buy TVs, cars, and other items that cost much more than $399.00 and they don't have to wait 7 days. The record keeping alone would be insurmountable . I am a single home based business owner and this burden would force me to hire outside help, for which I do not have the financial means. This proposed rule is overwhelming and frightening. Finally, the proposed rule requires the disclosure of a minimum of 10 prior purchasers nearest to the purchaser. To me, this is definitely a violation of privacy to a complete stranger, not to mention identity theft, and/or racial discrimination. I am very uncomfortable giving out the personal information of individuals (without their approval) to perfect strangers I may contact on the Internet. I would certainly never give them mine! In conclusion, I firmly believe this rule will do nothing to stop scam artists! Scam artists hurt my business too! I am a good American citizen and I am only trying to make an honest living! Thank you and please help me keep my business. Sincerely, Jack Butler
