The Federal Trade Commission took enforcement action on Tuesday against multilevel marketing operator Amway Corp. and two affiliates over alleged unfair and deceptive business practices, according to a press release from the agency.

A proposed order requires Amway, World Wide Group, L.L.C. and Leadership Team Development Inc. to pay $225 million, which the FTC said is the largest monetary recovery ever collected from a multilevel marketing company in an agency action, FTC press (US consumer protection) reports.
