Could very well be a Pyramid Scheme, which is just a scam by a different name! Be very carefull with your cash, it is hard enough to come by with out
loosing it !
Pyramid Sellers always used to recruit 'cannon fodder' with seminars in nice hotels and wine bars, be careful!

How can it be a scam, I've just looked at the website on Google and it says it's free 
Anyone who tells you something is simple and painless is selling you something. Nothing in life is simple, painless and free. 
I am a practising cynic and have almost perfected it.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

It's a type of Pyramid scam invented by
a convicted criminal. You pay a
load of money up front and then get incentives to recruit other people to do this. You also get to distribute a "free" application that
on the face of it is a search engine for prices of goods on the internet, but almost certainly does more than this in practice (e.g. email address
harvesting)

I saw this quote....

the fact that saving money has become very hip
Well 'Daddy-O' ...... to me it looks no different than if you go on Google, search for an item, hit the 'shopping' button
and filter cheapest items first, thats what the 'genie' does. They claim to give you a commision if you buy from them, but it looks too
suspect to me. I personally wouldn't touch it with a barge pole.

it was mentioned gadgetshow.
they had to make an apology due to stating its crap.
the owner provided evidence it pays out.
although its easier to win the lottery than get the 50 people spending to get your money back.

Pyramid schemes can pay rather well to those on top of the list, doesn't make it a viable business model unless you are one of those people
though!
