Ampmark Gum was a product sold online by the Ampmark Gum Company. The company recruited sales representatives with a multi-level marketing structure.
Weight-Loss Benefits
Ampmark Gum was reputed to have beneficial effects on health. Advertising promised that chewing the gum would suppress appetite and help achieve weight loss.
Hoodia Claims
One of the ingredients touted was hoodia, a desert plant native to southern Africa that has been incorporated into several commercial health-food products and dietary supplements.
The Ampmark Opportunity
Ampmark promised affiliates who signed on with the company independence and a lucrative business opportunity. The company promised to refer customers to web sites operated by their affiliates, who would benefit from a repeating stream of income. In fact the company's income was largely generated by memberships paid for by the affiliates themselves.
Breast Enhancement
Ampmark also sold a line known as Ampmark Breast Enhancement Gum. It advertised this gum as a natural supplement that stimulated the growth of breast tissue.
The End
The company folded after a short time in business and its websites were taken down.
