If you pursue the EZ Toyz opportunity...

YOU COULD GET
SCAMMED!!!

File a Complaint

EZ Toyz is not a real company. The EZ Toyz opportunity to which you responded is a fake, posted by the Federal Trade Commission to highlight the hazards of "licensed product" fraud on the Net.  No information about you has been transmitted to or collected by the FTC.

Licensed product fraud typically involves the purchase of brand name products from a business opportunity promoter. The promoter claims the investor can make large profits by marketing the products on display racks.

DON'T FALL FOR LICENSED PRODUCT FRAUD

  • Check-out the promoter. Call the legal department of the consumer products company. Ask if they've heard of the business opportunity promoter and whether the promoter is a "licensed distributor" of the company's products.

  • Get earnings claims in writing. Insist that the promoter give you written information to support any earnings claims, including the number and percent of others who have earned as much as the promoter claims. Also, ask the promoter for the disclosure document required by law. If the promoter hesitates or refuses, walk away.

BEFORE YOU INVEST

  • Check to make sure the business opportunity complies with applicable state registration laws

  • Research the industry and the market and talk to current investors in person.
