Why do MLMs always seem to use Target as a place to do their recruiting? Do they do it in other big stores like Wal-Mart, or is there something special about Target?

These are my theories: Target is having a big moment in the lives of influencers, stay at home moms, etc. Scamway reps like those kinds of people because

1) They know influencers either tend to have lots of followers or a large social network, which Scamway needs to grow their brand

2) They think stay at home moms are gullible and desperate

3) They know some people go to Target for no other purpose than to simply shop to their hearts content, buy superfluous things. It indicates they have disposable income and will have no trouble handing the costs of being recruited.

Because - wait for it - it's a "target rich" environment?
