The answer

It is sufficient that pyramid marketing is the only similarity between Agloco and Almas Company to judge their work as unlawful, because pyramid marketing involves an unknown wage, and the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade hiring a worker until his wage is made clear to him. Furthermore, the wage is paid for browsing websites, which is not considered a legitimate benefit, and it involves deception and fraud towards the owners of the displayed products.
