I've been targeted by one...

A woman who I used to get the train home fro work with. Haven't seen or spoken to her in years and we were never close.

She just messaged me on Facebook saying that she 'needed my help' so, of course I ask what's up and she says that she 'needs to help one other person so that she can get promoted'

At this point, my eyes roll very far back into my head.

She then says that she needs to 'work as hard as [she] can, so that [she] can go on holiday next year'.

She then sends me a load of bollocks about make up.

How do I tell her no politely? Oh and that's she's part of a pyramid scheme.

I genuinely feel sorry for her, I hope she hadn't put too much money into this scam.

I wouldn't give her a reply.

@PaddysMarket I was thinking about doing that...

Not like I'll ever see her again, but I still feel bad 😬

It might not make you very popular but I believe these people have to be told no very firmly and that you're not going to change your mind. I know with Forever Living they teach their reps that a no doesn't mean no permanently just not right now Hmm so sometimes it helps to be outright with them and that way they get the message
