There is something wrong with the company cydcor and I'm not exactly sure what's illegal and whats unethical.
I worked for an independently owned offshoot of cydcor and it was a horrible experience, but it was just normal bad management, not a scam. What did interest me is what happened once I suggested that I wanted to quit.
I would send worried text messages and facebook messages to my friends who worked there (before quitting) about panic attacks I would get. (the nature of selling door to door created anxiety for me). Anyway, my friends wouldn't receive the actual message and I know this because I would send a message and I would quickly get a phone call but my friends didn't know the content of the message. When one of my friends called me in the middle of the night after I sent a benign facebook message, he sounded terrified and I said to him verbatim "Say yes if you didn't get my last text message" and he said yes, then had to go.
I got a certified letter the other day demanding that I stop contacting them. I signed it almost 10 days after I had contacted them last. I haven't been stalking, trying to contact them (the individual office or cydcor) or anything along those lines, but I am very concerned about cydcor.
The fact that cydcor may control kids text messages and facebook accounts is very troubling. The kids that I worked with all came from various backgrounds and all desperately needed money so they all have so much riding on making it to ownership (I can explain what this means) that they didn't see how bad it was or how it was adversely affecting their lives.
Also, I think cydcor changed their website after I quit the sales office in east providence, but this I can't guarantee.
What do I do next? I deleted text messages because this company stressed me out too much. I don't want to sue cydcor personally, but if what they are doing is illegal or others have similar stories, I really think action needs to be taken.
