当前,由于互联网销售模式的广泛兴起,越来越多的大学生也意欲加入微商代理行列。但是有的却因为不能区别合法的微商代理与违法的网络传销而受到欺骗甚至陷入传销之中难以自拔。从形式上看,微商代理与网络传销具有一定的相似性,但以法律视角看,这两种行为在构成要件方面存在多种差异。意欲参与微商代理者,应当正确区分微商代理与违法网络传销的区别,以保障自身和消费者的财产安全。 At present, due to the widespread emergence of the Internet sales model, more and more college students also intend to join the ranks of micro-business agents. However, some are deceived or even caught up in pyramid schemes because they can not distinguish between legitimate dealers and illegal online pyramid schemes. From a formal point of view, there is a certain similarity between derivative agents and online pyramid schemes, but there are many differences in terms of composition between the two types of behavior from a legal perspective. Agents who intend to participate in the micro-commerce should correctly distinguish the difference between the micro-commercial agency and the illegal online pyramid selling in order to protect the property safety of themselves and their consumers.
