"To avoid any confusion, at no level, Crowd1 is an investment scheme." The wording of this can be perceived as them admitting they ARE an investment scheme... Since the non-essential clause ", at no level," can be removed you end up with "To avoid any confusion, Crowd1 is an investment scheme." Just straight up admitting to it lol

It is most likely on purpose as it could be beneficial for them if facing possible legal proceedings.

My mom was involved in this company, they call it "network marketing based". They say that Crowd1 is not a pyramid, because it has the product which participants can promote by inviting other people. The product, as I understand, is services of airline(name of which I can't remember) and this tournament platform. Btw, Miggster's hosts promised to add well-known competitive esport disciplines and organise tournaments between famous teams *in the future* . So I remember how my brother actually finished one of these events in primitive yeti arcade in the top 3, maybe he even won there. He won the prize that was some shit like phonecase or socks, but he didn't received it even after calling support service lol And yes, Crowd1 participants are used to call all negative reviews for their company as paid and weak attempt to "ruin the innovative business scheme"

I've been investigating Crowd1 and Miggster a few months ago because one of my immediate family members just recently got into it and I was skeptical. Apparently Crowd1 is a very popular pyramid scheme among expat Filipinos and is popular in the Philippines and several other countries primarily in Southeast Asia. The only ones I know though is the Crowd1 "branch" in Dubai, UAE. It was so popular and shitty in fact that the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) the agency responsible for managing business and such have actually issued a cease and desist to Crowd1 and claims that it is an "Illegal investment scheme." I did a little bit of digging and their website as far as I know is owned by a Bulgarian.

Oh god I remember how back in 2019 people around me were in too deep with crowd1. Everyone was joining the bandwagon, people inviting other for the $$$ and I almost bought into it due to peer pressure and the fear of missing out but my instinct knew that the entire premise of crowd1 was just a scam. I did my own research and discover that they don't actually have a product or services that they offer, technically they have a service but its "teaching" people about opportunities and that load of crap they say on their so called meetings. I really hate how they target the vulnerable to gain a lil bit of that dough, they straight up just flash you some fancy words so that you may think they are smart and know what they are doing. They call their ventures business opportunities but what happens in reality is that you're simply paying to get a ticket to hear a rich man tells his "rags to riches story" I also love how their members are so deluded they think that they'll get rich by inviting more people.

Even though this stuff looks like more of a Ponzi scheme than a pyramid, pyramid schemes are usually referred to as multi-level marketing because pyramid schemes are illegal but MLMs are not by way of technicalities, therefore referring to what are technically-legal MLMs as really-illegal pyramid schemes in an official way can get you sued back into the Mesozoic era.
