Shaboxx Review

There is no information on the Shaboxx website indicating who owns or runs the business.

The Shaboxx website domain (“shaboxx.info”) was registered on the 15th of August 2015, nevertheless the domain registration is defined to private.

As always, if an MLM company is not openly upfront about who's running or owns it, think long and hard about joining and/or handing over any money.

The Shaboxx Product Line

Shaboxx does not have any retailable products or services, with affiliates only able to promote Shaboxx affiliate membership itself.

Bundled with Shaboxx affiliate membership is really a Shaboxx streaming box.

Shaboxx claim their streaming box enables users to ‘watch your preferred movies, TV shows, live sports, etc.‘

Joining Shaboxx

Affiliate membership with Shaboxx is linked with the purchase of a $60 position in the company's compensation plan.

Conclusion

We see lots of dubious marketing claims in MLM, but what stood out to me particularly with Shaboxx was the next claim from their affiliates:

On the possibility I'd missed the US government legalizing commercial piracy, I ran a few searches to get at underneath of the deregulation claims.

Ends up there was some talk of deregulating cable zones to advertise fiber-optic competition, but that's about it.

Any claims that the US government deregulated the cable industry to guide piracy streaming services are complete hogwash.

Shaboxx's compensation plan is as dubious as their piracy box, which sees affiliates pay a fee and then receives a commission on chain-recruitment.

Retail sales are not mentioned anywhere in the Shaboxx compensation plan material, which means 100% of the commissions paid out are sourced from Shaboxx affiliates.

Which additionally raises questions of a $60 in, $300 unregistered securities offering being made.

As for Shaboxx's piracy box, similar boxes created a small stir in the industry early to mid last year. The various MLM piracy box opportunities have since mostly died off, upon realization that selling commercial piracy is really a pretty limited market https://scamrisk.com/shaboxx/.

Let alone a business opportunity centered around dubious claims that selling use of pirated content is somehow legal.

Love or hate the existing distribution models for licensed content, underneath line is that companies like Shaboxx market use of pirated content.

This, combined with chain-recruitment “investment” style compensation plans, is all about as not even close to legitimate MLM as you can get.
