It sounds like a classic ponzi scheme. They are making money on the subscription ($65.00) and then on the coins that they sell, which I'm sure have steep premiums. The few who come out ahead in this scheme do so by getting friends and family to grossly overpay for silver.

It does not appear to be a scam or ponzi scheme. Just a really BAD version of an MLM
MLM's are fine, but some have products that are worth very little (i.e. "Silver Snowball") and some have decent products
