Evidence

Tag teaming blanking to Usana, "Gotcha" seems to mean that haha I'm evading block. Cheers, JetLover 21:52, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Comments

Seems to be a Usana scammer, as this IP has been devoted to eliminating any information regarding the pyramid scheme charges from that particular article. If there are any more of these, let's just lock the article, if not delete and protect it, as it's really hardly worth the bother to document yet another multi-level marketing scheme that's trying to use us to page rank boost.

Note: The user account has been indef-blocked as VOA, and the IP has not edited in the last 20 hours so blocking it is probably not necessary. Semiprotecting the page might be a good idea. Shalom ^Hello 17:46, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Conclusions

Agreed. Named account already indef-blocked, and IP has not been used in the past week. No edits to Usana in the past week, either, so I won't semi-protect it at this point, though that would be a good option if problems recur. MastCell ^Talk 22:33, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
