Description

I want to warn others about a group calling itself Genuine Network. They present themselves as a social media/content business opportunity, but their structure clearly resembles a pyramid scheme. The group pressures members to send money and gifts to each other, creating the illusion of earnings. Recruitment is the main focus, not selling any legitimate product or service. They coordinate TikTok livestreams where members send money to each other to appear profitable to outsiders. Jacob Barlow, who frequently promotes Genuine Network, is a key figure associated with recruiting people into this scheme. This setup is misleading, exploitative, and harmful. It targets vulnerable individuals online and encourages them to hand over money under false pretenses. It is also very concerning that no legitimate business registration, address, or contact information can be found for this group, despite their wide online presence.
