Firstly I would like to clarify that I am not going to say if Questnet is an illegal company or not
Firstly Multi Level Marketing is considered illegal in India
httpwwwhinducom20050126stories2005012612250800htm
This is the law
httpwwwcommonliiorginlegisnum_actpcamcsa1978460
Look at the Lawyers club of India forum for all the discussions about this
http74125153132searchq=cachep9T-R8e-OxkJwwwlawyersclubindiacomforummessage_displayasp3Fgroup_id3D1577+questnet+albaniaampcd=10amphl=enampct=clnkampgl=nz
(Search on Google for questnet Albania and this is the tenth link click on lsquocachedrsquo for the article)
Questnet International claims to be in many fields like luxury etc But looking at their website you can tell it is all bad ndash they shouldat least hire someone who can write well and hide the truth and be ambiguous Their portfolio comprises the following luxury brandsit says
ldquoQatana is the luxury and collectibles division of QI Ltd and includes several premium brands in its portfoliordquo
But you know what The company Quantana is just a collectibles selling shop It just sells items from well known companies ndash sodoes this make it a Luxury and collectible division

After reading that would you call this good copyrighting or clever marketing
Anyways coming back to the question
Questions
1
Why are the business practices of this company called into question so often if they are perfectly legal ndash could it be a question of theethics involved Of the way the representatives are driven to meet the goalachieve targets
2
Why is a company banned in at least six countries so far and in legal problems elsewhere
3
Why does a company feel the need to use so many names in different countries ndash Gold Quest Quest Internation Quest NetQuestnet etc Most multinational companies attach a Pvt limited etc at the end of their name to indicate that their local branch inany country is jointly operated with someone or is a limited entity by itself
4
Why are some personnel associated with this company held in custody because of their working on behalf of the company

Why is the owner of QI (Quest International) Vijaeswaran arrested and later wanted by Philippines
Anyways my research into legal archives has thrown quite a few surprises Read on for the list along with relevant links Mostinteresting is the fact that even Securities Exchange Commission of USA has filed a case against them and the proceedings arelisted in a link I have attached

httpwwwsecgovnewspress20082008-80htm
GQI has been put in receivership and the related court documents are here
httpgqireceivercomfilingsasp
The main problem seems to be that this company opens a branch in any country using strange titles like Goldquest hydraulics andthen diversifies into MLM practices ndash though from investors statements it seems more a Ponzi than MLM scheme(Again for allstatements made here I have attached the references) ndash The thing with this company is they vigorously pursue anyone who makes anegative comment about them ndash so I just want to be a bit careful
QuestNet is not legal in ETHIOPIAVIETNAM IRAN SRI LANKA RWANDA and until recently NEPAL (IN NEPAL IT IS NOWLEGAL) This is because of the out-dated laws in the country which have not been kept up with the times ie Laws relating to E -Commerce

Like most other MLM companies there have been people who called QuestNet a scam or a fraud Some were real IRs while therewere others who automatically considered the company a fraud just because of QuestNets business model - thanks to the generalnegative perception of the MLM industry Reports in the newspapers about company employees being arrested and of politicalconspiracies only added fuel to the fire
Is QuestNet Really A Scam If you only listened to one side of the story (ie the negative ones) you will definitely have a biasedopinion about QuestNet and very likely miss the golden opportunity to be a successful entrepreneur So do both QuestNet andyourself a favour - read this QampA with JR Mayer MD of QuestNet before making your conclusions
1 Why do people always consider MLM companies as scammers First and foremost MLM is not illegal and MLM companies arenot automatically scammers The industry has just been tainted by some black sheeps and the misconception that MLM equalspyramid selling A pyramid scheme is definitely illegal because it involves the exchange of money without any product or servicebeing delivered On the other hand MLM is an efficient distribution model based on relationship selling and is used by even biginsurance companies like Prudential and AIG So instead of QuestNet setting up an office in every city around the world and runningcostly advertising campaigns we engage IRs to distribute our high quality products and pay them commissions - everybody wins
2 Why have some people called QuestNet a fraud Some IRs join QuestNet thinking that they can make a lot of moneyautomatically without doing anything Unfortunately our company does not run a get-rich-quick scheme and the IRs are expected toput in a fair bit of effort at least at the initial stage if they want to be successful - there is no free lunch in this world Our salesproposition was never about making an obscene amount of money doing nothing but to help budding entrepreneurs achievefinancial independence with a low capital outlay So if youre looking to get rich without lifting a finger please look elsewherebecause QuestNet is for honest hard-working entrepreneurs
Were also aware that some IRs tend to mislead their prospects because they are eager to sign-up new downlines QuestNet doesnot condone such practice and we have infact published an Ethical Marketing Guideline and strict Code Of Ethics for all our IRs toabide by We view the matter seriously and take immediate action against errant IRs who flout these basic rules Unfortunately itsnot always easy because we have more than 2 million members in over 160 countries
3 What about those bad press about QuestNet We dont deny the reports in the newspapers We get considerable attention from
them and the articles are sometimes sensationalized because we are a significant player in the industry The now famous case of our founder being arrested was a result of disgruntled ex-partners wielding their political clout because they wanted a share of thecompanys success The bottom line is Mr Vijay Eswaran was trialed and acquitted in the court of law because there was no caseagainst him - something the newspapers didnt report because it probably doesnt sell as much as negative news
4 So is QuestNet a scam Definely not And if youre still not convinced consider these facts - QuestNet has been around since1998 - Our network consist of over 25 million IRs worldwide - The company is part of a global MNC which has interests intelecoms radio stations etc - We have the licenses from governmentsauthorities and a presence in 160 countries worldwide
It is banned in India Iran Sri Lanja and other countries I just googled about this company after a bit of changed keywords i foundthe marketing strategy of this company is really worse and illegal Let me help you guys understand what is it all about
We can call this marketing strategy as MLM(Multi-Level-Marketing) or Pyramid Scheme
These are all my findings over the net
GoldQuest QuestNet operate under the name QuestNet LTD co ref no 993949-P
Gold quest is proved to be using alleged money circulation market in India
From The Hindu article (published on 2003)
CHENNAI AUG 21 With the arrest of Goldquest officials in Chennai where the companys India headquarters is located policeclaimed to have exposed yet another alleged money circulation racket Over 50 members have filed complaints stating that thecompany owed around Rs 12 lakhs to them
But these guys have changed their name to QuestNet ltd and doing the same business I hope this business will be shut downsoon before it gets all the people inside this alleged market
Another article says Gold Quest banned in Sri-Lanka
GoldQuest the controversial network marketing scheme is now illegal in Sri Lanka after its scam drained US$ 15 million in foreignexchange from the country
we can understand one countrys fate can be changed to worse than previous through Pyramid schemes like QuestNet
Currently Questnet targets well known IT employees as targets Before think of the money please think 1000 times before invest inany of the MLM schemes

Question IS QESTNET A SCAM
Answer Questnet is certainly not a scam
Why
The 3 biggest problem that Questnet faces are
1) the misconception that MLM = pyramid scheme
2) the generalization that all MLMs are scams
3) certain Questnet members who sell it as a get-rich-quick scheme
Of the three the biggest problem is with (3) because you cannot control what every member does - especially if you have 3 millionmembers spread over 160 countries
Some of these members (aka Independant Representatives) sell Questnet as being an autopilot and get-rich-quick scheme inorder to quickly grow their downlines As a result the new members later learn that you actually need to put in a reasonable amountof effort thus calling the whole company a scam
The good news is Questnet is not sitting down quietly and has infact came up with a strict code of conduct and warning aboutunscrupulous members The company also encourages the public to report such members so that action may be taken against them
Now here are some facts about Questnet
1) the company has been around since 1998
2) the company is part of an MNC with interests from telecoms to hotels and more
3) Questnet is licensed and has local presence in 160 countries
4) There are over 3 million members and growing

Like most other MLM companies there have been people who called QuestNet a scam or a fraud Some were real IRs while therewere others who automatically considered the company a fraud just because of QuestNets business model - thanks to the generalnegative perception of the MLM industry Reports in the newspapers about company employees being arrested and of politicalconspiracies only added fuel to the fire
Is QuestNet Really A Scam If you only listened to one side of the story (ie the negative ones) you will definitely have a biasedopinion about QuestNet and very likely miss the golden opportunity to be a successful entrepreneur So do both QuestNet andyourself a favour - read this QampA with JR Mayer MD of QuestNet before making your conclusions
1 Why do people always consider MLM companies as scammers First and foremost MLM is not illegal and MLM companies arenot automatically scammers The industry has just been tainted by some black sheeps and the misconception that MLM equalspyramid selling A pyramid scheme is definitely illegal because it involves the exchange of money without any product or servicebeing delivered On the other hand MLM is an efficient distribution model based on relationship selling and is used by even biginsurance companies like Prudential and AIG So instead of QuestNet setting up an office in every city around the world and runningcostly advertising campaigns we engage IRs to distribute our high quality products and pay them commissions - everybody wins
2 Why have some people called QuestNet a fraud Some IRs join QuestNet thinking that they can make a lot of moneyautomatically without doing anything Unfortunately our company does not run a get-rich-quick scheme and the IRs are expected toput in a fair bit of effort at least at the initial stage if they want to be successful - there is no free lunch in this world Our salesproposition was never about making an obscene amount of money doing nothing but to help budding entrepreneurs achievefinancial independence with a low capital outlay So if youre looking to get rich without lifting a finger please look elsewherebecause QuestNet is for honest hard-working entrepreneurs
Were also aware that some IRs tend to mislead their prospects because they are eager to sign-up new downlines QuestNet doesnot condone such practice and we have infact published an Ethical Marketing Guideline and strict Code Of Ethics for all our IRs toabide by We view the matter seriously and take immediate action against errant IRs who flout these basic rules Unfortunately itsnot always easy because we have more than 2 million members in over 160 countries
3 What about those bad press about QuestNet We dont deny the reports in the newspapers We get considerable attention from
them and the articles are sometimes sensationalized because we are a significant player in the industry The now famous case of our founder being arrested was a result of disgruntled ex-partners wielding their political clout because they wanted a share of thecompanys success The bottom line is Mr Vijay Eswaran was trialed and acquitted in the court of law because there was no caseagainst him - something the newspapers didnt report because it probably doesnt sell as much as negative news
4 So is QuestNet a scam Definely not And if youre still not convinced consider these facts - QuestNet has been around since1998 - Our network consist of over 25 million IRs worldwide - The company is part of a global MNC which has interests intelecoms radio stations etc - We have the licenses from governmentsauthorities and a presence in 160 countries worldwide
It is banned in India Iran Sri Lanja and other countries I just googled about this company after a bit of changed keywords i foundthe marketing strategy of this company is really worse and illegal Let me help you guys understand what is it all about
We can call this marketing strategy as MLM(Multi-Level-Marketing) or Pyramid Scheme
These are all my findings over the net
GoldQuest QuestNet operate under the name QuestNet LTD co ref no 993949-P
Gold quest is proved to be using alleged money circulation market in India
From The Hindu article (published on 2003)
CHENNAI AUG 21 With the arrest of Goldquest officials in Chennai where the companys India headquarters is located policeclaimed to have exposed yet another alleged money circulation racket Over 50 members have filed complaints stating that thecompany owed around Rs 12 lakhs to them
But these guys have changed their name to QuestNet ltd and doing the same business I hope this business will be shut downsoon before it gets all the people inside this alleged market
Another article says Gold Quest banned in Sri-Lanka
GoldQuest the controversial network marketing scheme is now illegal in Sri Lanka after its scam drained US$ 15 million in foreignexchange from the country
we can understand one countrys fate can be changed to worse than previous through Pyramid schemes like QuestNet
Currently Questnet targets well known IT employees as targets Before think of the money please think 1000 times before invest inany of the MLM schemes

Question IS QESTNET A SCAM
Answer Questnet is certainly not a scam
Why
The 3 biggest problem that Questnet faces are
1) the misconception that MLM = pyramid scheme
2) the generalization that all MLMs are scams
3) certain Questnet members who sell it as a get-rich-quick scheme
Of the three the biggest problem is with (3) because you cannot control what every member does - especially if you have 3 millionmembers spread over 160 countries
Some of these members (aka Independant Representatives) sell Questnet as being an autopilot and get-rich-quick scheme inorder to quickly grow their downlines As a result the new members later learn that you actually need to put in a reasonable amountof effort thus calling the whole company a scam
The good news is Questnet is not sitting down quietly and has infact came up with a strict code of conduct and warning aboutunscrupulous members The company also encourages the public to report such members so that action may be taken against them
Now here are some facts about Questnet
1) the company has been around since 1998
2) the company is part of an MNC with interests from telecoms to hotels and more
3) Questnet is licensed and has local presence in 160 countries
