While reading “LuLaRoe was a little more than a scam, a Washington state lawsuit claims,” I am reminded of when my mother’s friends were involved in LuLaRoe, and they spoke of it like it was the greatest thing to ever exist. I remember hearing them disucss it and my school, and trying their best to convinve my mom to join. Thankfully, my mom did not fall into the trap. After hearing how highly the women talked about it, I thought my mom should take part in it as well, but now I understand and see why it would not have been smart.

Reflecting on this articel, I feel as if I am more aware of how prevelant scams are and how easy it is to fall into one. Scams are so prevelant and people can do so well at being dishonest and trying to hide it. This contradicts the Virtue Ethics Framework, as they were dishonest and lacked integrity. The company revealed their own personal ethics by being dishonest and lacking integrity, causing many stay at home mothers alot of time and money. They gave investors items they could not even sell, causing them to go into debt.
