Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Franchise fraud
And fix. A "franchisee" is not a product salesman in the same sense as in a MLM or other pyramid. There are thousands more franchises than MLMs or pyramids and there are hundreds that we, in general, never hear of. Ive run across several over the years that were blatant rip-offs and have seen the damage they can cause. The article needs to be revamped and written a little better but it should not be merged into something it isnt. I personally would redo the opening quote since they are different from a pyramid, they are treated under the same laws as pyramids but have different problems. http://www.businessweek.com/smallbiz/news/coladvice/book/bk991029.htm is a good example of how a franchise scam can work and I believe Business week would meet  right
