The State is trying to stop an alleged pyramid scheme from operating here in Montana. The State Auditor has issued a Cease and Desist order against a company that has reportedly taken more than $1.8 million from participating Montanans.
After many phone calls and complaints over the last few months, Montana Commissioner of Securities and Insurance Monica Lindeen announced that her office has ordered Kentucky-based Fortune Hi Tech Marketing to stop operating in our state. "What they do is convince people that it's a great money-making venture, Lindeen said. Unfortunately, very few people actually make any money." Nearly 1,300 Montanans have been recruited to be part of the alleged pyramid scheme.
