Pyur Life Review: When desperation leads to embracing elder fraud
Pyur Life began as Pyur Global. Launched in late 2016, Pyur Global marketed nutritional supplements and an iHeart device.
Get an insight of your fitness levels with regular monitoring of the key factors that are strong indicators of your overall health.
Pyur Global flopped and was on life support, until founder Bob Bremner decided to merge it with the Noble 8 Revolution cycler Ponzi.
Pyur Global’s Ponzi merger took place in mid March. As part of the merger, Pyur Global was renamed to Pyur Life.
Noble 8 Revolution was a cycler Ponzi that relied heavily on religious affinity fraud.
Noble 8 Revolution strung mostly elderly investors along on the promise of commissions for about a year.
The company only managed to pay one month of commissions for February 2019. Monthly fees collected by Noble 8 Revolution are believed to have primarily benefited owners Mark Campese and Blaine Williams.
In exchange for convincing Noble 8 Revolution investors to sign up, Campese and Williams were given cushy Pyur Life “Executive Founder” positions.
Read on for a full review of the Pyur Life MLM opportunity.
Pyur Life Products
Pyur Life has scrapped Pyur Global’s line of supplement products. The iHeart device is also gone.

MLM Commission Qualification
To qualify for MLM commissions a Pyur Life affiliate must maintain 100 PV over a rolling 30 day period.
Retail Commissions
Pyur Life pays affiliates when retail customers order Pyur Vitality.
Retail commissions paid out are the difference between the wholesale and retail price paid, despite retail pricing not provided on Pyur Life’s website.
An additional 25% retail commission is paid weekly on total retail customer sales volume.
Recruitment Commissions
Pyur Life affiliates earn a one-time 25% commission on products ordered by personally recruited affiliates.
Builder Pack Recruitment Commissions
If a Pyur Life affiliate signs up with a Builder Pack, they qualify for Builder Pack recruitment commissions.
- sign up with a Gold Builder Pack ($449.95 and receive $75 on the recruitment of a Pearl, Platinum or Gold Builder Pack affiliate
- sign up with a Platinum Builder Pack ($949) and receive $150 on the recruitment of a Pearl or Platinum Builder Pack affiliate and $75 on a Gold Builder Pack affiliate
- sign up with a Pearl Builder Pack ($1849) and receive $300 on the recruitment of a Pearl Builder Pack affiliate, $150 on a Platinum Builder Pack affiliate and $75 on a Gold Builder Pack affiliate
Residual Commissions
Pyur Life pays residual commissions via a binary compensation structure.
A binary compensation structure places an affiliate at the top of a binary team, split into two sides (left and right):
The first level of the binary team houses two positions. The second level of the binary team is generated by splitting these first two positions into another two positions each (4 positions).
Subsequent levels of the binary team are generated as required, with each new level housing twice as many positions as the previous level.
Positions in the binary team are filled via direct and indirect recruitment of affiliates. Note there is no limit to how deep a binary team can grow.
Sales volume is generated across the binary team via retail sales and affiliate purchases.
When 600 GV on one side of the binary team is matched with 300 GV on the other, a $30 “cycle” residual commission is paid out.
Pyur Life affiliates can earn up to 1000 cycle residual commission payments a week ($30,000).
Matching Bonus
Pyur Life pays a Matching Bonus on residual commissions earned by downline affiliates.
The Matching Bonus is tracked via a unilevel compensation structure.
A unilevel compensation structure places an affiliate at the top of a unilevel team, with every personally recruited affiliate placed directly under them (level 1):
If any level 1 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 2 of the original affiliate’s unilevel team.
If any level 2 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 3 and so on and so forth down a theoretical infinite number of levels.
Pyur Life caps the Matching Bonus at ten unilevel team levels based on rank.
- Executives earn a 5% match on level 1 (personally recruited affiliates)
- Bronze Executives earn a 5% match on levels 1 and 2
- Silver Executives earn a 10% match on level 1 and 5% on levels 2 and 3
- Gold Executives earn a 10% match on level 1 and 5% on levels 2 to 4

- Emerald Directors earn a 10% match on level 1 and 5% on levels 2 to 9
- Diamond Ambassadors earn a 10% match on level 1 and 5% on levels 2 to 10

Conclusion
There’s no ignoring that owing to there being literally no interest in Pyur Global, Pyur Life is being seeded by Noble 8 Revolution victims.
Who received what to make that happen is likely never going to be publicly disclosed. But owing to Noble 8 Revolution’s fraudulent business model, one can probably assume a stack of cash was involved.
With that out of the way, we’re able to analyze Pyur Life as a stand-alone MLM opportunity.
Pyur Life’s product, Pyur Vitality, is being heavily marketed with doctor approval:
This is problematic for a number of reasons. First and foremost the implication that Pyur Vitality has doctor approval suggests medical benefits.
Specifically, Pyur Vitality is being marketed as “the missing link to youthful vitality”.
Pyur Life provide no independent medical studies on their website. Nor is there any suggestion that Pyur Vitality is approved by the FDA, or any governing medical body or association.
Then there’s also the fact that Pyur Vitality isn’t shipping until next month. So take any claims made about the products with a grain of salt.
That Pyur Life don’t disclose the retail cost of Pyur Vitality is also revealing.
I don’t know how much is in one case of Pyur Vitality, but if it’s the defacto monthly affiliate autoship, that suggests a case satisfies a monthly requirement.
$149.95 wholesale puts us at an estimated monthly retail cost of $179.95.
Unless Pyur Vitality is some sort of miracle elixir (which the FDA is unaware of), I don’t see there being any retail market for it.
Pyur Life’s compensation plan does pay retail commissions and a generous 25% bonus on retail volume. But given the estimated pricing and questionable health benefits, comes off as pseudo-compliance.
If you can convince retail customers to pay $179.95 a month for a supplement shot, you’ve got some mean marketing skills on you.
For most Pure Lyfe affiliates I can see attracting retail customers being a significant challenge, turning them to recruitment to cover their autoship losses.
If we take the $1849 Pearl Builder Pack for example, bundled product is primarily used as a recruitment tool (see official Pyur Life corporate example right).
And of the two to four cases set aside for retail customers, why would you supply them with product to cover their placed orders instead of just selling directly to them???
Generating retail sales, providing your customers with product while they wait for their ordered products to arrive and then clawing back what you gave them when said ordered product arrives – literally makes no sense.
Continuing with the Builder Packs, they not only force affiliates onto autoship (must be manually cancelled after one month), but also provide pay to play benefits over regular affiliates.
Pay to play benefits provided to Builder Pack affiliates include Builder Pack recruitment commissions and automatic rank qualification.
Pay to play is a regulatory red flag in any MLM opportunity, as it encourages affiliates to spend more to increase their income potential.
And when you’re talking thirteen cases of a supplement shot at the top end, this is a very real problem.
No matter how you spin it or what you recommend affiliates do with product, the fact of the matter is no new Pyur Life affiliate requires thirteen cases of product upfront.
It’s inventory loading for the purpose of increased income potential.
Which in turn lends itself to affiliate autoship recruitment – a hard to ignore focus of Pyur Life’s MLM opportunity.
That is you sign up with a Builder Pack, go on autoship and then focus on recruiting others who do the same.
This was a noted concern in Pyur Global, albeit with different products.
Note that Pyur Global’s affiliate packs maxed out at $499, so they seem to be going gangbusters on recruitment this time around.
Whereas with Pyur Global I noted the possibility of retail, with Pyur Life it’s prohibitively unlikely.
That leaves us with a pyramid scheme, which will likely collapse after those coming over from Noble 8 Revolution are signed up.
I believe this is what happened with Pyur Global. It might take a bit longer in Pyur Life due to the Noble 8 Revolution seed recruits, but over time the same conclusion will be reached.
PYURLIFE: For anybody even thinking about joining this platform, let me give you some history about the two chronic scam artist that are Founders, BLAINE WILLIAMS & MARK CAMPESE.
These are the two long term seasoned fraudsters that stole funds from thousands of members over the years in different MLM scams and recently through Waszupp, NOBLE 7, and then currently through NOBLE 8 REVOLUTION over a 14 month time period. ( Review the articles on Waszupp, Noble 7, Noble 8 ).
They opened Noble 8 Revolution up for commissions after 14 months of delays because of operational incompetence and because Blaine & Mark had created five income avenues exclusively for them, for commissions to flow directly up to the top where they were positioned on the matrix, bypassing qualified member positions, members were left with minimal commissions.
After this one month period, these two cons brought in phase 2 since Noble 8 was dying due to disgusted members with the delays and lies they have been fed, and minimal commissions paid out, which was PYUR Global, a failed nutritional company run by Bob Bremner who has had several failed MLM platforms besides PYUR Global. Behind MLM has an article on PYUR Global you can review.
They renamed it PYURLIFE to hide the failed past history of PYUR Global, and created this product “PYUR Vitality” they concocted which is an overpriced “Fountain of Youth”, that has had zero outside independent labs to verify there health claims.
Don’t take the word of the doctors they have on board and spewing all types of nutritional and health claims that are not verifiable, these doctors, the Scientific staff, are not MD’s, but are a ND and P.HD., that are making commissions every time a product is sold, totally financial biased opinions. ASK FOR A VERIFIED COPY OF THE INDEPENDENT LAB TEST RESULTS, watch them squirm and tell you it’s in the works, but try the product, it will change your life.
If you want expensive urine since 75%+ is paid out in commissions which causes the product to be way overpriced coming out of your system, with no added benefit for the body, buy the product…… They will never get a independent lab testing of the product, they know the outcome will not match the claims and rah-rah.
Don’t fall for the traditional false MLM rah-rah, Blaine & Mark could sell ice to an Eskimo, they have there pitches “cons” down to an Art.
Run as fast as you can away from these two fraudsters Blaine Williams & Mark Campese, that both have a failed track record in MLM, notice neither of them spell out the names of the companies they were involved with on there bios, there’s a reason for this- consistent “Failure” of a Track Record…..
A perfect example of Blaine Williams not telling the truth and bloating his bio up, look at the bio on the PYURLIFE site, Blaine Williams claims he was an NCAA Football Athlete – Hall of Fame College Football Coach., NO, here’s the real proof, check out the college website: http://www.hartnellpanthers.com/Hall_of_Fame/Past_Inductees/Past_Inductees
In the late 70’s he was one of 12 staff that managed their football program…probably an assistant coach in 1980 when their team won a championship. 37 years later they decided to honor that whole team by putting them in the College Hall Of Fame, not the NCAA as he claims. Blaine announced at least a hundred times on the Noble 8 Conference calls that he was being singled out for this honor, totally false.
It turns out that two other coaches were inducted at that event, one posthumously. There are no individual photos honoring Blaine except in the crowd of players and other staff, and one photo he had taken with his second wife and two kids.
***Just a side note for the readers of the Behind MLM site, Blaine and Mark claim on there conference calls that Behind MLM just produces negative false articles to generate clicks for revenue and that the articles are false and not accurate.
Just test the site, review some of the articles from a year or two ago, and see if these companies are still around today. Test the articles for accuracy, Behind MLM is accurate 97% of the time on the articles and outcomes.
Blaine and Mark just lie and cheat through there teeth to put money in there pockets, because everything in the articles pertaining to there cons, are researched, validated and accurate.
PYURLIFE: The latest conference call from Blaine Williams & Mark Campese, Founders of the PYURLIFE scam, they are staying consistent with merging religion into the stoking of the scam. There’s nothing worse than a scam artist using religion to suck the older generation into opening there wallets.
PYURLIFE; The history of the scam artists Blaine Williams and Mark Campese has been exposed, now you have the new ADVISORY BOARD that was developed with a new addition of scam artist’s to the PYURLIFE scheme.
How is it that the two founders and the advisory board members listed below can make health and other claims to potential recruits regarding the “VITALITY SHOT”” product when not one of them have tried or physically reviewed the product, the product doesn’t come out for two weeks?
Total BS, it’s all about getting commissions, not being honest…
If any of the above indivIduals reaches out to you on this scam, run…….
Mark Campese is one of the most honest guys I’ve met.
Hes incredibly positive and this internet hawk is the scam.
Honest guys don’t target elderly victims for scamming.
The product really works. I have used it for 3 months and it has helped me with many health problems.. I NEVER believed it would work until I tried it.. the price has also come down..
I hope and pray the company does not close down.. I absolutely NEED this product to work.
It’s a business like any other and in order to make money…. you MUST work. Nothing is free in this world..
pyur life provides the same results that I had previously paid 1500$ per month for stem cell injections.. all the oils came back to my skin and hair…
nobody takes advantage of anyone.. people are privileged to receive this product.
Feel free to provide peer-reviewed studies showing Pyur Life’s product helps any health problems.
“Muh feels” is not a substitute for verifiable evidence.
There’s no denying elders were taken advantage of in Noble 8 Revolution.
Pyur Global embraced the scammers behind Noble 8 Revolution and looked the other way as their victims were funneled into Pyur Life.
I have been on Pyur Vitality and had blood work before I started the product and again 30 days after and my numbers were absolutely better, not to mention my energy level also is better.
Have a dog with congestive heart failure and given just a couple weeks to live and 5 months later, still here and doing better, she gets it every day with me.
So, I think this product ranks pretty high only list!
What numbers? Go on, be explicitly specific about what numbers contributed to “absolutely better” and more energy.
Same with your dog. What is the correlation between Pyur Vitality and congestive heart failure in canines?
Without peer-reviewed medical studies, your medical claims are nothing more than anecdotal stories. What’s more they’re also illegal.
Now these same people ( Blaine Williams & Mark Campese, Bob Bremner & David Bremner) are onto LIFESTYLE CONNECTIONS.
I was taken in through the Lifestyle Connections division. Its 49.95 a month for access to two apps.
One saves you money on the stuff you buy the other is a cash back app that gives you cash back on the stuff you already buy.
Sounds great right? However, after downloading the app, I went through the list of stores in my area and found that I would have to spend way more money than I currently spend each month just to save $49.95.
That’s hardly worth it to me. So I cancelled my subscription through the app and thought I was done with it. Then I saw they charged me again this month.
My sponsor doesnt want to hear it so I called Blaine Williams who did not answer my call.
I most likely wont hear from him again and I dont know another way to cancel my subscription to this company. The charge shows up as Global on my bank statement.
These guys are fraudsters and I’m a senior so, yes, I feel taken advantage of by them.
