Corporate Frauds Watch wrote a letter on 8-3-2013 to the chief minister of Andhra Pradesh and principal secretary of Home department to implement the G.O.M.S. No 178 of 2008 restraining Amway India from advertising in any media including internet regarding its illegal business model. This is in view of the latest judgement issued by the AP High Court refusing to entertain the plea of Amway India to review the judgement stating that there was nothing to review and the writ petition on the G.O. could be heard by the division bench. Now the division bench would hear the writ petition on the G.O.

1. I respectfully submit that we are Corporate Frauds Watch Society, Vijayawada which is a Non-Political, Non-profitable, Non-Governmental and Voluntary Organisation. We have been espousing the social cause of creating awareness against the illegal Money Circulation Schemes and frauds.
2. It is bring to your notice that Amway India Enterprises has been promoting illegal Money Circulation Scheme in the guise of Multi-Level Marketing and looting and cheating the public. On that a criminal case was registered against Amway and its members by C.I.D. in the year 2006. On that Amway went to Hon’ble High Court of A.P. to declare its activities does not fall under the provisions of Money circulation scheme, but after due enquiry, the Hon’ble Division Bench of High Court of A.P. held that the scheme floated by the Amway falls under the provisions of Money Circulation Scheme in WP No.20470 and 20471/2006. Subsequently, Amway approached the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India but the Hon’ble Supreme court of India also dismissed the SLP filed by Amway. Thereafter CID police filed charge sheet in the criminal court.
3. It is further bring to your notice that the Government of A.P. issued a G.O. cited in the above reference restraining the Amway from giving advertisements in print and electronic media. Amway again approached the Hon’ble High Court of A.P. but the Hon’ble High Court did not stay the operation of G.O. Supreme Court of India also did not stay the operation of G.O. issued by the Government of A.P. But unfortunately, the G.O. is not being implemented by the Police department though Amway is aggressively issuing advertisements and no stay was granted by any court against the operation of G.O. issued by A.P. Govt.
4. Hence, I request to kindly look into the matter and initiate action in this regard in the interest of general public from being cheated, for which we are grateful to you sir. I am herewith attaching the G.O. cited in the above reference for kind perusal and information.
Yours faithfully,
(M.Shyam Sundar)
