The Water Buffalo Press has a lengthy update on the 5Linx/Comida story. We are playing catch up here and can’t confirm for sure what is said there. Water Buffalo press alleges that:

Unconfirmed reports suggest that 5Linx heads may have felt “pressured’ by the owner/developer but these sources wish to remain anonymous and statements were unclear as to the type of pressure applied.

5Linx received COMIDA incentives in October on the purchase of VoIP equipment, the very same equipment that is billed as their breakthrough in the telecom industry and the same equipment that was likely distributed down through the 5Linx network of independent sales representatives for a profit.

The legitimacy of the 5Linx business model is questionable, as is any that employs the MLM structure, but concerns are only multiplied by 5Linx founder Craig Jerabeck’s questionable dispute with Verizon that resulted in the downfall of his former company @Wireless and the fact that neither 5Linx nor GlobaLinx is recognized in the membership of the Direct Selling Association whose membership includes companies like Avon and Cutco.
