Please be aware of a fraudulent scheme currently circulating by email that involves an apparent attempt to purchase AdvoCare products. This type of cross-border scam is known as a “check overpayment scheme.” Here’s how it works:
The person being contacted (such as an AdvoCare Distributor) has a product for sale on the Internet and receives an email with subject lines like Product Enquiry or Toward Payment or Payment Delivery. For example, recent emails were received by AdvoCare Distributors from a "Sharon Smith" or others asking about purchasing products or to open a store.
After ordering product, they send you “payment” via a cashier’s check or money order that looks authentic and even has watermarks. NOTE: The cashier’s check or money order is usually thousands of dollars more than the amount due for products, and you are asked to send them the difference. If you receive one of those payments, do not attempt to cash it. They are fraudulent checks.
In fact, do not respond to any emails of this type. AdvoCare does not condone this type of deceptive activity and neither should you.
How to report an incident:
If you receive any communication of this type of scheme, please report it to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) website at www.onguard online.gov or send a message to spam@uce.gov. You may also report it to your state Attorney General, using contact information at
www.naag.org.
Please be sure that everyone in your organization is aware of this fraudulent scheme.

From Mike Lenahen
Friends and family:
Thank you so much for your support of my son, Chris, in his weightlifting endeavors. As you know, he competed in the 2009 USA Weightlifting National Junior Championships in San Francisco on Saturday evening. I am happy to announce that he finished in 4th place nationally in his weight class, (out of 10 competitors) 21 years old and under.
In the SNATCH competition, Chris successfully made his 1st and 2nd lifts, but just missed setting a new personal best with his 3rd attempt. This left him in 5th place going into the CLEAN & JERK portion of the competition. Again he successfully made his 1st and 2nd lifts in the CLEAN & JERK, setting a new PR on his second lift. Chris had moved up to 4th place after this second lift as the competition was winding down with only 4 competitors remaining. Coach Jesse asked for the bar to be loaded to 165 kg (363 lbs.) for Chris' 3rd and final attempt in an effort to give him a chance at the 3rd place bronze medal. This amounted to roughly 13 pounds more than the new personal best that Chris had just lifted moments before. The weight proved to be too much as the lift was unsuccessful.
We are very happy with Chris' 4th place finish for the 2nd year in a row. There was a belated burst of jubilation when we witnessed Chris ascending the awards platform to accept the bronze medal for having the 3rd highest CLEAN & JERK total for the 94 kg weight class.
ATTACHED are photos of Chris making his 1st SNATCH lift and his 1st CLEAN & JERK lift. Thanks again for your messages of best wishes that I passed on to Chris before the competition.

From Tim Sales
Wayne Johnson and JP Penkzkover recommended this product to us. We listened, learned and practiced. It works...check it out.
******************
Zahid,
Economists the world over are telling us the sky is falling.
"Things are going to get worse before they get better," they say.
If you listen to them, they'll have you thinking...
* No one is has a dime to spend...and if they did, it wouldn't be with you...
* It's too hard to build anything right now - best to wait out the storm in safe waters...
* You have no chance of succeeding because "big businesses" are failing - therefore the little guy doesn't stand a chance because they're not as smart.
... please excuse me but what they're saying should be flushed down the toilet - especially if you're a network marketer.
Right now is one of the best times for a network marketer.
Strange as it seems, network marketing actually blooms in rough economic times. After someone gets laid off from their "safe" job, they're a little ticked off, and don't want to work for anybody ever again.
The thought of having to rely on anyone again for their livelihood disgusts them.
I don't blame them. I never liked relying on anyone, other than myself, to make ends meet - and get rich.
My InBox Is Flooded
Everyday I'm getting S.O.S. messages from network marketers. Being an ex-Navy man, when you hear an S.O.S. it's ingrained in you to respond.
Seems network marketers - new and old - are listening to the talking heads and allowing them to control their most important asset...
Their mind! Lesson #1: Always control your thoughts - they're really the only thing you have control over.
They'll either make you or break you in this business. Get control of them and direct them to your goals. Don't let anyone ever steer you away from what you want.
Not your friends... not your family... and definitely not someone who gets paid to tell you bad news!
Building Your Downline In A Bad Economy
Once you get control over your thoughts, the next step is to steer your prospects away from "the sky is falling" mentality.
This is a bit more difficult - but very achievable.
I'm getting email after email about how "hard" it is to build an organization in these rough times. Reality is, it's really easier... but only when you know how to communicate the right message to your prospect.
Coming out and shouting that you have a great way to make money, places you next to a used car salesman in your prospect's mind.
The fear of being robbed by a snake oil salesman increases when the purse strings are tightened.
Yet, it's still a very profitable time - if you know what to say, how to say it, in what order to say it and most importantly, how to move a new prospect into being a distributor.
How To Learn What To Say When The Economy Is Rotten
You're not going to be able to escape your prospect's perception about the condition of the economy.
If you try, you'll be hit with every negative statement they've heard from the talking heads on the news.
Therefore, you must - and I do mean MUST - go right in and address their chief concerns about being able to build their downline during so-called rough times.
I say "so-called rough times" for a couple reasons...
1. Because I was on a flight the other day, sitting in first class and it was full. FULL! I and everybody else paid 5 times what others in coach paid. Seems as though people are spending money... where they believe the value is!
2. Billions of dollars changed hands yesterday! Truth is, the amount of money that exchanged hands yesterday, the day before and the day before that is staggering. People are still buying houses, new cars, and expensive clothes. I'll admit, not as much, but... they're still buying!
... the primary reason people are still buying is because they believe what they are buying delivers value to their lives!
This is the key to growing your downline in a bad economy where people are afraid to spend money.
If You Want Simple Steps To Communicating Value To Your Prospects, Get Professional Inviter Today...
... especially because, right now, it's on sale!
This is my "stimulate the economy" offer for Professional Inviter.
This is one of my best solutions to helping you build your business. I reveal the secrets to effective communication - the exact kind of communication skills you'll need to overcome your prospect's skepticism about building a business in a down economy.

Economists also say, 2009 will be the 'turn around' year. This is the year the economy will hit rock bottom.
After you hit bottom, there's nowhere to go but up. Once the "fear factor" disappears from the masses there will be a huge upswing in the market.
Getting Professional Inviter now, and working it when it's "tough" out there, will dramatically increase your ability to explode your downline once the economy swings.
Prepare for the future by mastering effective communication today.
Those who fail to plan, plan to fail.
