Recently I have been approached by some of my close friends to join GoldQuest(also known as Questnet). GoldQuest is yet another multi-level marketing scheme. GoldQuest/ QuestNet operate under the name “QuestNet LTD” co. ref no. “993949-P”. It works on the principle of Pyramid Scheme. A pyramid scheme is a non-sustainable business model that involves the exchange of money primarily for enrolling other people into the scheme. Pyramid schemes are illegal in many countries, including the United States, Great Britain, France, Canada, Malaysia, Norway, Australia, New Zealand, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Iran. Normally, 99.99% of the people lost their money in any MLM or pyramid scheme.
For knowing more about this company I searched on Google. The search results were really alarming which I want to share with you.

CHENNAI AUG. 21. With the arrest of Goldquest officials in Chennai, where the company’s India headquarters is located, police claimed to have exposed yet another alleged money circulation racket. Over 50 members have filed complaints stating that the company owed around Rs 12 lakhs to them. The arrested persons include Pushpam, a Malaysian citizen of Indian origin and company managing director, Joseph Augustine, accounts executive, and Pushpendra Kumar Shukla, public relations officer.

Gold Quest is illegal in Srilanka07may16wanted.gif. — GoldQuest, the controversial network marketing scheme, is now illegal in Sri Lanka after its scam drained US$ 15 million in foreign exchange from the country, the Central Bank said Friday.

The Questnet’s MD and his associate have been issued a red alert notice by Interpol and have been arrested by Indonesian police.

If you try to see the details of quest.net domain name through viewwhois. There is no contact information, everything is encrypted. If this is honest company then why they are not showing their identity.

Read this article “Albania under the Shadow of the Pyramids” It is from World Bank official website.

There is a company called Gold Quest chain marketing. One of my friend took me to their office without giving any prior information. There 10 members put e in a closed room and forced to take thier product membership. For this I was asked to pay 30,000Rs. and 450Rs. registration charges. They claimed that if I can get 2 more members I will be paid some bonus amount and as the chain will grow I will be getting more bonus. When I refused to take the membership, they harrassed me for about 4 hours. I was able to escape from there anyhow.

TEHRAN, Oct. 26–Judiciary Spokesman Jamal Karimi-Rad said Wednesday the Hong Kong-based GoldQuest company has agreed to pay compensations to the government and the people, ISNA reported.
Karimi-Rad added that the company, which has representatives in Iran, has agreed to compensate following the measures of judiciary, which labeled their activities ‘fraudulent’.
Asked if any organization had authorized the company to print coins with Imam Khomeini’s picture on it, Karimi-Rad said the company has not received any authorization and the Center for Publishing Imam’s Works has filed a complaint.
The company offered gold coins and other valuable items via the net, promising the buyers hefty profits in a short period. The government announced that their activities were damaging the economy by causing an outflow of capital.
Subsequently, the judiciary launched an investigation into the case, saying their activities were illegal. Later, a group carrying coins into the country was arrested upon arrival and the coins were found to be counterfeit.

GoldQuest products are collectors items and will show rapid price appreciation.Or so they told their unfortunate victims, claiming 30% or more appreciation for their Princess Diana ??Coin?? The truth, as it is often happens, appears rather less palatable, as an advertisement on ebay testifies. ??Goldquest gentlemens numismatic watch / leather box. Worth P34,000.00. Will sacrifice sale for P23,000.00. Will ship in philippines??. The buyer was trying to sell it for 30% LESS than he paid for it. However, to be doubly certain of a sale, the starting price on the auction was set at P19,500, a little more than half its purchase price. The valuable ?numismatic watch? received no bids.

Now, he knows , its time to let you know about the actual game plan. He asks you, if you possess a credit card. If you have already, he advises you to apply for two more. (after all he is your friend and he would never want you to run after him for money). So once the deadline for one credit card approaches, simply transfer the amount to another card. Sounds so easy isnt it? So he already wants you to start cheating. At this point you cant think that even you are on the verge of being cheated.
He then tells you about the investment. He wants you to buy his product for Rs 32000/- . Which includes a Gold coin and a silver one too. . As said by him, “Once you make the payment, you become a member and you are ready to start your own business. And if you are not interested in the coin , you put a post on ebay, you can literally have an auction and the price you can get is upto Rs 40000/- .
You Pay the money!! and its over. You get the coins, now play with them. Try putting them up on ebay and find me one single man who paid more than Rs 8000/- for that.
Me and my friends have suffered from this. Just to warn you about that. the real picture is quite different than they actually present it in front o[censored]s.
I request you to learn to say No!! . Dont get pusshed out of the limits. Just say No!

Therefor I request all Indians not to join this company, this company is draining foreign exchange from our country without doing any development and invest. IT Professionals are soft targets so Beware !!!

Remember Wealth is only gained through honest and hard work, so LIVE WITH IT !
Hello Kumar, Nice comments..But still fools are there to convert anything to gold(alchemist) intelligent people make money out of them.
Today a representative of this comapny is going to visit my home now I will ask the doubts to him and will get it confirm and will let you guys.
I agree towards the complaints u gave here. i Request all the people not to join in this business because it doesnt suit to people who only workhard doesnt use their smart mind to reduce their work effectively.i m in this business. i wil ask u ppl one question who all posted complaints plz answer me so tat i can learn something new from u ppl, Albert Einstein is such a genius he used his mind smartly finished all his work before half the time of work.atlast with same mind he E=mc2 with that atom bombs were invented.wat happened with this? Thousands of people got killed because of his invention,but still we price him and we call him as a genius.did Einstein killed all those ppl ? No ! it went to the wrong people with that they made bombs and killed people . So just like that here why you are joining to this business? To make money
if you think only that and join here and if you dont put any effort and work . I will Guarantee You ,You will not get money.I[censored] say i have worked definitely you wil get money. 30 million ppl are doing this business out of it only 10 million have earned more than millions and other 10 million people have taken their money back what they have invested. Remaining didnt earn even a single penny because they havent worked. Once again i insist you ppl dont join this business if you are not smart , if you say that i m ready to work and give commitment to this, i Guarantee you that YOU ARE A MILLIONAIRE.

5. I AM NOT ASSUMING ANYTHING AND TELLING SOME USELESS THINGS.
THINK BEFORE JOINING. ASK YOUR FRIENDS/PARENTS. DISCUSS WITH THEM.

6. DONT JOIN IMMENDIATELY AFTER THEY CALL FOR A MEETING.

7. I ATTENDED ALMOST 7 TO 8 MEETINGS.

8. I ASKED THE SAME THING WHAT I AM ASKING HERE.
THAT IS
a) CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME HOW MANY MEMBERS ARE IN BELOW YOU??
b) CAN YOU TELL ME EACH PERSON EARNED HOW MUCH??

9. BUT THEY TOLD ALL OF THEM ARE EARNING. THEN I ASKED THE LIST. ONCE AGAIN THEY SAID THAT ALL OF THEM ARE EARNING.

10. I LEARNT THAT SOME INETHICAL THING IS GOING INSIDE IT.

11. THEN I STARTED CALCULATING THE BUSINESS FLOW.

12. THAT IS I DRAWN A BINARY FLOW. PLEASE LOOK INTO THE BELOW LINK.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyramid_scheme

13. I LEARNT THAT AT THE 13TH STEP, IT WILL REACH THE WORLD POPULATION IF EVERYONE STARTS EARNING. (THEY WILL BE TELLING THAT IS NOT MLM OR BINARY SCHEME.
FRIENDS, IT IS YOUR DUTY TO LEARN WHAT IS MLM AND WHAT IS BINARY..)

14. BUT THE BUSINESS IS RUNNING FOR ABOUT 10 YEARS.

15. I WONDERED HOW IS IT POSSIBLE. THEN I LEARNT THAT 90-95% ARE LOOSERS AND 5-10% ARE GAINERS.(i LEARNT THIS FROM INTERNET) AS OF NOW, I NEVER SAW A PERSON WHO SHOWED ME THE LIST. THEY CANNOT SHOW WHICH IS NOT EXISTING.

16. ONLY FOR THIS REASON, THE GQ KIND OF SCAMS IS RUNNING FOR A LONG TIME.

17. IF EVERYONE IS SUCCEDING IT WOULD HAVE COMPLETED IN A MONTH AS IN THE LINK ABOVE.

18. SO BE AWARE.

19.IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBTS SEARCH IN GOOGLE. ENQUIRE YOUR FRIENDS. DONT USE THE MONEY THAT YOU EARNED BY WORKING HARD.

20.GIVE SOME MONEY TO ORPHANAGE BUY THE WISHES FROM THE ELDER PEOPLE. THAT SATISFACTION WILL ALLOW YOU TO SLEEP PEACEFULLY.

Dear Friends,

First understand one thing some fools are telling that its a pyramid system. Do you know what exactly pyramid systems means??? you cant even earn a single paise than your upline or your superiors..

i will prove you its not a pyramid system because i am earning more and more than my upline because i am in oneside for him he has to balance the other side

so if you decide to earn more stop talking and start doing prospecting and you will become no.1 in india the great example is M/S PADMA SHE IS NO.1 IN INDIA DO YOU KNOW WHO INTRODUCED HER HE IS MR
Hi people,

I am a final year student doing my MBA. Let me share some thing with u. I did my Project in Network Marketing. It can be otherwise called as Direct Selling/MLM. There are more than 50, 000 companies who say themselves as MLM companies. Actually they are not. The concept of Network Marketing/Direct Selling/MLM is greatt. There are people who get income for their 3rd generation for the network created by grandparents. these are Legal companies. for finding companies which are legal visit the website of IDSA ( Indian Direct Selling Association) and also WFDSA (World Federation of dierct Selling Association). those companies which are members of this body are legal. others are pyramid schemes. as pyramid schemes are not legal in countries which had implemented MLM ACT. u can c the conditions for a company which follow legal N/W methodology. There is an International Seminar on Direct Selling by visionary Charles W King in Dubai. If someone is there u can attend the conference and inform the details to others. I will not be able to attend. I expect legal restrictions on Direct Selling very soon. this will solve the problem. any doubts u can contact me on my mobile . No- [protected]...


make sure u read the conditions and join a company for N/W marketing. this is a powerful concept. no doubt in it. but the selection of the company matters a lot. the selection can be taken even months together. dont worry... have a greatt career friends.
I have one volts verdant AC for which I lodged a complaint of its not functioning on 19.4.08 which was responded by a service man on 24th.There assurance is that with in 24hours a man will come and attend you. Any way as per the service men( two) that the remote sensor is not functioning so we have to take it and get it repaired. Fine.I am writing today that is on 8.5.08 that no one has responded to me.When ever I ring to the office, which is attended even after number of ringing, they usually say that a man has been appointed and will visit you. I do not understand that why they are not updated and has a schedule time of job done or have the courtesy to inform the party concern and the latest position. It indicate that being a reputed concern the office does not have a work culture. My complaint number is 08Ap190761.
My remark after that is the after sale service of the voltas Ac is very poor.The office work culture is very irresponsible. They lack the communication and link related to job. They do not have the courtesy to call back.

To me Questnet is of a great benefit to the deafies like me. In fact many deaf questnet members in India are happy with Questnet. Those who criticise Questnet are lacking positive attitude or confidence. Questnet is one of the network marketings in the world.
Even Though I have weeks experience with this business, I request all of the above fellow mates to read the company rules and regulations once again even though well educated people like you missed to read this even after checking the check box stating I have read and I agree the terms and conditions of the company.


Please guys, please read that once again. This may resolve the confusion aroused with the arrest and media exaggerations...
After I read all the above comments One thing I dont understand why peoples who supports GOLDQUEST or QUESTNET doesnt speak about this business has been banned in Srilanka. I am sure no supporter of GOLDQUEST can give explanation to this. Mr.Karthick in the above said about Eiensten's genuis smartmind etc. First of all this is a wrong citation to this subject. Mr.karthik u not only spoiling ur friends but also the young generation.

Mr.Karthik or any Mr.supporter can u answer why GOLDQUEST has been banned in many countries ? atleast clariy for Srilanka's case.

I am sure they wont give me a good clarification. Readers can go to any blog or website. these peoples wont answer for this. But they can smartly speak some inspiration words.

"Selling a fancy item for a huge item is not business ethical". your company is doing a good business but doesnt follow ethics.
Third Opinion

Three Doctors are dicussing which types of patients they prefer. Doctor Watson says, ''I prefer librarians. All their organs are alphabetized.''

Doctor Fitzpatrick says, ''I prefer mathematicians. All their organs are numbered.''

Doctor Ahn says, ''I prefer lawyers. They are gutless, heartless, brainless, spineless, and their heads and rear ends are interchangeable.''
Absolutely right Mr.Balasubramanian, its banned in srilanka as you have done alot of search you must be knowing why it is banned in Srilanka..., you should actually do some more search and get to know the fact instead of asking for details here.

I also have a query for you Mr.Balasubramanian..., prostitution is banned in India but its legal in many countries. So whats your opinion on this? Is Prostitution bad or the countries are not good? May be you have some point to think on now...

There is a reason behind everything..., instead of standing on the top and shouting why, we would request you to find out.

Remember if you can without any preconceived notions think being neutral... of five things (why, what, when, where and how) you will get every answer...,

This is not because I am supporting or against anyone. BUT ITS A FACT TO KNOW THE TRUTH. :)

To me knowledge the business plan offered by Questnet is very legal and appropriate; there are some many competitors in market who are working on MLM concept. AMAY is one business which more or less works on the same base concept.

I don’t see any issues with the business, it’s due to some people QuestNet had bad name.

People who are victimized and are not benefited by QuestNet business are either not understood it or given false information.

Many a times quest net members are putting pressure on the people to join the business by giving false information or exaggerating about the facts. One must keep its mind open while listening to the presentation.

Last but not the least QuestNet offers a wonderful plan and opportunity to make an earn income.
Hi My name is Hamsini I have invested 39, 660 in Quest Net and I couldnt continue immediately due to personal reasons and now the company has a huge lot of complaints and so I cannot approach any of my friends and I couldnt make a single money.if the company cannot retain its good reputation, then they can as well stop this busines.
I am one of the big loser.
i[censored] work u can earn
i[censored] dont work u will not earn
plan is good
money is real
speak truth- create team -initially little earning-gradually it will increas
tell lies-initially good money-later fail miserabelly socially as well as monitarily
choice is yours
