Scammers Profit From Pandemic

There's a pandemic that's affecting the world and causing mass panic- some people, like our medical professionals, are stepping up to help others selflessly. Others, however, are exploiting this pandemic for their own personal gain. In my opinion, it's disgusting, and needs to be talked about. First I talk about MLM distributors who make wild claims about their mlm products helping cure/prevent coronavirus (mainly examples used are from Young Living and doTERRA, two essential oil mlm companies). Then I talk about other scammers who have said their product cures corona, such as Kenneth Copeland attempting to "cure" people of the virus through his televangelist powers that apparently can transport through tv screens, Jim Bakker who sold a "silver solution" and claimed that it would cure all viruses and went on to say some of the most outright outrageous claims I've ever heard, and Alex Jones who claimed his products, particularly his toothpaste, would cure COVID-19. Apart from people who have made outrageous product claims, some other ways people are exploiting the pandemic is through hoarding needed products and supplies. Lastly I discuss the immoral way MLM reps are attempting to recruit people into their downlines by using the fear of this pandemic against them. Hope you all enjoy this one, and are staying safe and well!
