There is little difference between the original Ponzi Scheme and today's MLM scams like biopro.
<- Click on the image and visit Wikipedia to read about the original Ponzi and his scam.
What should stand out to you is the very 1st sentence:
"A Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investment operation that involves paying abnormally high returns to investors out of the money paid in by subsequent investors, rather than from the profit from any real business."
The abnormally high cost to get involved in an MLM like biopro as a distributor goes right to the top of the company. This also includes those investments by former top distributors of MLM's whom have created enough wealth to open a satellite office for biopro - paying abnormally high returns to investors out of the money paid in by subsequent investors.
There is very little employment and structural overhead to maximize their profit margin. Most scam MLM's are heavy executive and light customer support; it doesn't take much to push inexpensive products at an extremely marked up price - returns to investors out of the money paid in by subsequent investors, rather than from the profit from any real business.
Structurally, MLM's like biopro is in the range of 90+ percent of all profit stays at executive levels internally and distributorship's and a small percentage is divided up to low skilled low paid customer support of which is "always short staffed". Then they create what we like to call "new math" and this is how they convince you the company is making nothing off the products and new sign-ups when in fact it is still in the 90+ percent range. Once the company starts to or becomes successful it will continue to keep its average between execs, distributors and staff and once the scam reaches a level to pay themselves out they do.
Bottom line here is that biopro is in this FOR THE MONEY; not to save us all from EMF and EMR. That is just their snake oil in the sale of a gift package that only they will unwrap at Christmas.
IS BIOPRO A FALSE SENSE OF SAFETY?
If the science can not be proven to be real to the FCC, FDA or any Government regulatory entity and biopro must post a disclaimer as ordered by Federal Law on their site then are their products and self proclaimed science not giving people a false sense of security? Would this not make people feel like they can continue to use their cell phones as much or even more if they think their biopro cell chip is protecting them? Keep in mind the sources at biopro marketing this science idea, not one of them hold an Engineering degree or even close to one and this product is being sold via an MLM. AN MLM PEOPLE! So why should we believe them and their claims about their products and science? We would say you are not only taking a huge financial risk but you may also be taking a larger safety risk and further yet a legal risk!Ray Grimm is a "veteran" pyramid marketer and that’s all he is. He has surrounded himself with all veteran pyramid marketers. There are no scientists working at biopro or any doctors. If they did have a science background, it could lend some credibility to the creation of and invention of their products. Instead, they have recruited very questionable rouge scientists from inside and outside the US, (mostly outside), that are mainly "wellness" people. In a very lame attempt these wellness people try to lend credibility to this science. No one at biopro is credible or is in ANY position to talk about the science as an expert – ask a “scientific” question and watch them not answer you. So what the hell is this!?If the science is highly questionable, the validation sources are highly questionable and biopro is definitely questionable... then we can only conclude that biopro has a questionable reason for existence. Lets go back to Ray Grimm's prior endeavors and examine, even his previous companies and involvement was so questionable the San Diego Reader.com news source wrote about their questionable stocks. After you click the link above, scroll down about 3/4 of the page to the paragraph starting with; "Then there's San Diego's hottest stock, FemOne of Carlsbad." This article makes us think that the opportunists at biopro is taking advantage of an unfounded EMF dangers theory, pushing the idea their products provide some form of safety, creating an unprovable science behind their products, growing an MLM so fast it balloons the stocks up to sell and possibly leaving a ton of victims in their wake with complete disregard of their safety if EMF is really unsafe.Dr. George Carlo was a key supporting figure in the whole biopro structure and has left biopro for this very reason of unprovability and safety. he stopped endorsing them because he too no longer believes in their science but did he also know more? Did he know so much he was not wiling to go down that road with them? After reading his "Open Letter" to biopro executives and consultants at SafeWireless.org you can make up your own mind. You can make up your mind as to the validity of biopro's products, the science, why Carlo left and why this MLM company exists. Moreover, you can also make up your mind as to why Ray Grimm, Alfred Hanser and all the executive staff at biopro would take on so much risk to push something unprovable and which may be causing more harm to the consumer.
BIG EVIL CORPORATE BIOPRO!
If biopro can accuse cell phone companies of being "big evil corporations unconcerned for public safety and only for profits", can we not also accuse biopro for the same thing?
Based on our observations of these two men and their actions in business, their words used to recruit distributors, their lack of facts behind their science and all their misleading marketing material; their greater motivation is anything BUT safety from EMF and more for a massively profitable MLM. Without going into the fallacy of their science, this company exposes the truth through their own methods of marketing. Hell, the fact they are only an MLM marketing company and not a science company should be enough. But for those that use their emotions rather than common sense lets try this angle. Biopro exposes their absolute arrogant elitist thinking assuming people will believe anything if its "marketed" right including an unproven science. Point in fact; they go out of their way in recruiting meetings to portray the biopro business as something other than a for profit company. That its some kind of "God send" to help against a "claimed" yet unproven theory of an EMF epidemic. Biopro then, "closes the deal" to use an MLM term, when they market the company on the foundation of "you" getting rich when we all know it is the corporate execs that get rich in any MLM. Ray Grimm and Alfred Hanser and all the others aiding and abetting this crime is absolutely creating this MLM for the sole purpose of massive profits; not for the children as they say and not for the safety of the public as they say. Their profits are for their privileged lifestyles - a level of lifestyle you will never achieve under their Pyramid. Biopro's Big Evil Corporate Profits are for a life style that has awarded them multi millions of dollars, lavish homes in the most exclusive communities and for the CEO a fleet of $250,000 dollar Lamborghini's! These people that demagogue the cell phone industry are the same people that make massive profits doing so.
So is Ray Grimm and his company biopro consciously ignoring their less than honorable facts for their own big profit gains? You would have to agree this is exactly what is happening.
Consider more observations...
- Do you create an unproven science and sell it via an MLM company if EMF is really that dangerous?
- Do you market a product and science without the requirement of proof unless you have massive profits on your mind first and foremost?
- Is there no other reason to prop yourself and your company up evoking phrases like "for the children" and shamelessly "using" personal stories about children from Child Help in your marketing meetings unless you are trying to gain respect from the people you are actively recruiting to buy into your MLM?
- Is there any other reason to display pictures of yourself with celebrities like Evander Holyfield and Bill O'Reilly but for your own vacant selfish attempt to make yourself and your company look reputable?
Once you answer these questions honestly then you will see their is no doubt they discredit themselves, the science and expose their true desire... profits!

a couple years ago my wife was interested in joining the biopro machine and I checked into it. The so-called research includes no randomized double-blind trials (the standard for rigorous scientific testing), nor actually any double-blind trials at all. Some of the trials were not even blind trials. In other words, the experimenter stuck the chip on people's phones and said, in effect "This will block radiation. Do you feel any difference?" Is that like leading the witness or something? If I stuck my finger on the back of people's heads and said "I am shooting spiral vortex rays through your brain. Do you feel anything?" there will be several people who answer yes.
Anyway, the point is, the biopro trials are only "science" in the sense that a ouija board is science. I understand they are looking for a "scientist" who will perform a random double-blind and get the results they want. What with the economy as it is, there ought to be someone willing to compromise their integrity if biopro pays enough.
