According to our MLM fb page, EC and her DH are also involved in Ariix, whose USA office is in Utah. Here is a link to their website.

Tokelau Both are 'Amway' copy-cat blame the victim 'MLM income opportunity' cultic rackets.

'Body by Vi,' is 'Visalus.'

Not all of this video link is about 'Jeunesse' (you can skip at 2 minutes - 6 minutes).

There seem to be a significant number of former 'Vemma' Bots now promoting 'Jeunesse.'

'Vemma' has recently been closed as a fraud by US law enforcement agencies.

Those Ariix products look like something dreamt up by the losing team on the Apprentice

Unless it's my imagination I'm pretty sure that posts have slowed down a bit from a few of the bots.

Maybe they're starting to think a bit more about what they're putting out there from a point of view of fake claims and false information that can come back to bite them on the bum?

School mum bot (who has totally embraced the FL fake lifestyle) for example has just gone for almost 24 hours between fb posts. Unheard of!

throwingpebbles The traditional miracle was turning water into wine, but the 'Ariix' preachers have re-written all that.

Yes I've noticed that too Norbert

Morning! I'm a long time lurker but have finally decided to post!

I was 'caught' by Arbonne a few years ago. I was vulnerable I had a child on cancer treatment and the lady who recruited me was relentless. The day I signed, straight after being 'talked at' or as they call it presented to for over an hour I had my poorly child with me and all I wanted to do was go home. I tried to cancel the agreement the next day which I found out alter I should have been able to but the lady refused! I ended up £1500 out of pocket with the 'gold bags'. I was absolutely worried to death.

Long story short my up lines were useless and I was basically left alone. A few months later I contacted the us Arbonne for a refund. When I explained the story abd said I had tried to cancel I did eventually get a full refund. A whole up line was removed from Arbonne as when I had the guts to stand up a few others did and they had to refund us all over the cooing off period.

Luckily I got out and got my money back but I know of people who didn't.

20thcenturyschizoidwoman · 31/01/2016 12:10

Motorheadmum that is a terrible story and typical of MLMs preying on vulnerable folk.

hope things are better in Motorhead-house (great name btw)

Motorheadmum · 31/01/2016 12:11

Thank you 20th century they are all good now :)

It's awful but I see the FL people doing the same

Motorheadmum - I'm interested to know exactly when you got refunded and when the British 'Arbonne' shills got canned.

In the wake of the UK government investigation of 'Amway' in 2007, and subsequent attempts in the High Court to close 'Amway' (which stalled) various US-based 'MLM' racketeers began to pay-out limited refunds to some (determined) complaining victims in the UK evidently fearing that 'Amway-style' investigatons might spread to their activities. 'Amway' had avoided closure by expelling a handful of shills who had been telling all the classic lies and peddling the motivation materials. It seems that the 'Arbonne' bosses followed the same tactics in Britain.

eyespying it was back in 2013 in August. It turns out the paperwork had be fraudulently completed. The up line lied about the date she had first met me, said the date I signed , which just happened to be at the end of the month, was the second meeting. Luckily I had messages to prove otherwise. It turned out it had happened a lot in the 'region' I was in. I was lied to the whole way, from what I had to spend a month etc
