yes but you will NOT be top of this so called list!!!!!!!!!!

u enter at the bottom and have to wait untill everyone else above you gets their fone

in time the scheme will dry up and no1 else will sign up, leaving the people at the bottom foneless

hence why only tht top people benefit

THIS IS WHY ITS CALLED A PYRAMID

You dumb fuck scam's like this one were plastered all over the news about a year ago, Its people like yourself thinking your getting something for nothing that fuel's these dead end illegal scams.

Id put up £20 that you will never get a phone off them, sounds like better odd's to me

mike is 1 st and waits for 4 new members
kerrie is 2nd and waits for 8 new members
andy is 3rd and waits for 12 new members
claire is 4th and waits for 16 new members

IF you were only 10th you would wait for 40 new members

If your 50th (lucky) you wait for 200 new members!

etc etc

thing is with these things is - a lot of em have already saturated the market. i.e. - most people who would have wanted to sign up already have. So to get those 80 new members or whatever - if your 20th of the list is gonna take a bloody long time.

Even if you had 1 person a week, thats well over a year to get your phone - which as someone said the scheme might not even be going anymore.

is http://www.foundaway.co.uk/ the site that your on about? or is this another scheme.

thats the other problem with these things - is there may also be several schemes going at once. So it splits the potential market even further.

It's a scam, pure and simple.

Some people see though them, some fall for them - those that do just learn the hard way...

quick example

1st on list needs 20people
2nd needs 20 people not including the 1st 20 (40 people)
3rd on list needs another 20 (60 people after you joined)

if ur 10th on list (which is very unlikely) ya will need 200 people to join after you did
