A pyramid scam specifically. 'Investors' were encouraged to have house parties to get their friends and business acquaintances to watch his beautiful video of this great opportunity. Someone we know took out a loan on her home, and cashed out her 401 to 'invest' AND threw a house party to try and convince others to invest.

Too bad, so sad.
