The answer

Most of those dealing with the company aim to obtain money, not the product, and this is gambling. This is further confirmed by the possibility of obtaining the programs for less than the advertised price and the customers' desire to subscribe with multiple names, which indicates their lack of desire for the product itself. It is permissible to purchase the programs for those who genuinely want them, but it is not permissible to promote the company to those who intend to gamble. The company must be boycotted, and people must be warned against it, because its entire system is based on inviting to gambling.
