Welcome to Multi Level Mondays, a weekly series all about multi level marketing, pyramid schemes, and ponzi schemes.

At first, TrimSpa was just your run-of-the-mill diet pill fad. But, when mega star social starlet Anna Nicole Smith decided to join in on their campaigns and lost her own weight, it absolutely exploded. Suddenly TrimSpa was everywhere and they had their celebrity star to thank for it. But, after her death, it all came spiraling down. They lost a massive amount of their customers, found themselves in fights with the FTC and FDA, and had to change the entire makeup of their products. Now, they’re back, charging an exorbitant amount of money for diet pills that likely, don’t work.
