Amarantha, they can be shut down, but as I noted it takes a lot of effort by the right people before anything is done. What i meant was that there isn't some overseer out there ready to flip a switch based on accusations without a proper investigation and order from legal authorities. Even then, it can take a long time. Consider diet pills that make outrageous claims. They usually make millions of dollars before the FTC steps in and sends them a warning letter and a list of changes they are required to make. They usually comply within deadline, and often pay a fine, then they are back in business. If they don't comply,
then they are shut down. In the case of *******, there will be other considerations since it's not the same thing as a diet pill and there isn't a tangible product. It's just membership to a website that's being sold, and it may be more difficult to shut them down. However, I'm hoping a class action lawsuit will be more fruitful.
Here's an interesting twist - Almost all of the success stories featured on the ******* website have been traced to photos from Russian bride websites, completely fabricated. Out of the small handful of real success stories, most have abandoned ******* and now warn of the serious dangers of the plan.
