Comment from Ben Ecker: It has to be said!
Folks, I’m at my wits’ end, and for good reason.
Since the oh-so-“surprising” Lyoness/Lyconet/myWorld insolvency, more and more so-called top marketers around the world are speaking out. And it is precisely their descriptions, assessments and justifications that mercilessly expose the true dilemma.
What we are seeing here is nothing less than a declaration of bankruptcy by all those who have cheered, defended and promoted this system for years and who are now suddenly portraying themselves as victims.
Guys, that’s not how it works.
For years, some leaders presented themselves as ‘doers’, as visionary high-flyers who had already chosen their new residence in Monaco in their minds. But behind the façade: no self-reflection, no analysis, no responsibility, no understanding of reality.
They never critically questioned the system, never examined it, never analysed it; they believed what seemed useful to them. And they earned money by dragging others into it.
That is not success.
That is deception, both of themselves and of all those who trusted them.
When the same figures say today, ‘It just looked good to me,’ that is not an explanation, but an admission of failure.
‘We believed it because we wanted to believe it.’
It was never about facts. Never about scrutiny.
It was about supporting a narrative that secured their own income.
The claim that ‘the development could not have been foreseen’ is simply false.
Critical reports were already appearing in 2007.
Judgments had been handed down since 2009.
From 2012 onwards, there were public broadcasts, documented research, warnings, official proceedings, claims and publicly accessible decisions by the Supreme Court.
Anyone who wanted to see could see.
Those who did not see did not want to see.
And that is why I am saying this very clearly:
“Stand up straight, you top leaders.
Take responsibility for what you have done.
Finally show some backbone.
And stop playing the victim.“
Because everything we at BE Conflict Management have published since 2014 about Lyoness, Lyconet and later myWorld has proven to be true.
Every warning. Every finding. Every assessment.
And although Hubert Freidl and his lawyers, who, incidentally, were financed by all of you, tried for years to silence us legally, we did not have to delete a single substantial sentence.
Freidl and his accomplices never provided any credible counter-evidence that was accepted by the court.
They announced ‘substantiated counter-evidence’ and then regularly withdrew their lawsuits shortly before the trial date.
Everything is documented.
Everything is on file.
Especially since none of the top marketers has addressed the issue or asked Hubert Freidl, with whom they have good contacts, why he sold his yacht ‘SH Magic’ (now SH NOAH) on 15 March 2025 for €12.5 million. Possibly to himself or to one of his numerous spin-off companies? So that he could satisfy at least a small portion of his creditors.
Instead, there is speculation that he sold his own shares in the company in order to ‘put them into the company’.
Really? He took his own money to sell his own shares, which others had paid him for, in order to save a small portion of his own debts.
Wow.
Only those who believed in the system until the very end could be so blind.
Only those who believed in the system until the very end could be so blind.
But the real mess is only just beginning:
While tens of thousands of those affected are fighting for their refunds, many of the former top marketers are using this moment to prepare their downlines, which they previously built up with false promises, for the next system under the guise of an alleged ‘purification’.
‘Na servas’, as they say in Austria.
A few half-hearted admissions, some rhetoric of concern, a few tears in their voices and a ‘We were all deceived’ and the starting signal for the next big miracle is supposed to be given.
Speechless.
But not without consequences.
Because I promise you one thing:
My team and I will be watching their little hands very closely this time.
Yours
Ben Ecker
