You're right, Cozie. I haven't said a single thing to her about it yet, positive or negative, because I don't want to come across as envious or spiteful, but I'm honestly gobsmacked that she's fallen for it. She's intelligent, she's pragmatic - what is she thinking?!

She was vulnerable though from what you've said?

I'm reading a book about cults at the moment and it says anyone can fall for it and get sucked in. Especially intelligent people.

Apparently if you think you will never fall for such a thing, that makes you vulnerable to being recruited. Never become complacent or think that people have any say in getting sucked in. We must never think that people have been daft or are not clever or as canny as us. They are us, they just got caught off guard.

Patsy85. Re that bossbabe shit meme, do the men close their deals in heels as well? I can see that about some of them, especially that "redirect your spending" tosser

Tobusytowee All successful con-artists know that well-educated persons (with large egos) who believe that they cannot possibly be duped, are always the easiest to dupe and to keep duped.

'The most powerful weapon in the hands of the oppressor is the mind of the oppressed.'

You can take this analysis much further, because the members of each human generation tend to think that they are more sophisticated the preceding generation and far more sophisticated than people who lived in the more distant past.

I now realise, after thoroughly examining the cult phenomenon, that the more sophisticated the human race has imagined itself to be, the more gullible it has actually become.

It's working !

I can't keep up with all the deleted comments!
The husbands (publically available and searchable unless you're in certain parts of asia) Facebook page is just as interesting to read.

Would love to see some more ex fl people come forward on here. You're not alone. You don't ever have to admit who you are on here, I certainly haven't but I know I've found these threads so helpful.

It's great that you are contacting eye and the guys on tv lastuser etc.

Also I wanted to check that siwi is ok? Not seen any other posts since the other night

agree anyone can get sucked in.

yes, would love more ex-bots to come forward and also whistle-blowers within the main MLM offices in Utah too.

I'm tracking where the hits come from on the blog and there are more coming from the US.

I'm not sure what rule I broke to have the last photo removed. I can't see anything wrong with this-

lastuseraccount123 BTW. My Blog post explaining TV, and giving links to it, has attracted just under 1000 page visits so far. A significant percentage of these visits have come from the USA. Prior to the article, I sent links to both MN and TV to Robert FitzPatrick requesting he circulate these amongst his many associates.

eyespy that's great, thanks!

I would like to point out my taxes were paid last week inbetween the one show and Eastenders - after eating baked beans on my knee.

#humblebrag

20thcentury mine were paid when I was soaking in the bath .

Someone on freelancing is currently trying to recruit!
The thread has been reported so be quick if you want to comment before it is zapped.

Patzy has given Steve a link.

Hello Steve!

1. that was VAT not tax, who do they think they are kidding?
2. does this rubbish actually help them recruit people?? I think it would put me right off!

Funnily enough, I pay VAT and my quarterly return payment for end of December was due January 21st. So they're either paying it late or this is more bull.

We're all 'glammie Mummies' who don't want a second income, apparently.

Toobusy, what is the book?

That Steve, he's a charmer, isn't he . Have invited him to look at our Timeless Vie site.

Here is link by the way: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/freelancers/2561867-Work-From-Home?watched=1

Wonder if he has been asked to start this thread...

I wasn't quick enough.

To Steve - there's a wealth of information over several 1000s of posts, even ex-MLMers who KNOW exactly why it doesn't work.

People, you have to part with £200 for a 'business in a box' pack, make 4cc a month to be active (1cc = £166) and you're expected to spend money on the products yourself (1cc must go through your personal account).

Basically after taking off what you spend you will have earned about £60.

There's a reason why the drop out rate is ABOVE 95% in the first year and why people DO NOT MAKE MONEY. At least for themselves. Forever Living is laughing all the way to the bank.

Even those at the top are jumping ship.

Shame on you Steve, this isn't about anything other than getting 2cc per recruit for yourself.

Enjoy Success Day - please do tell everyone how thousands of people feel here on Mumsnet!

We wouldn't make money anyway guys - maybe that's why we loathe the desperate people?

We are too busy being Glammy mummies who don't need 2nd jobs to afford our coffee mornings.

There's quite a few bots hitting working from home recently. They've clearly never read a thread on MN in their life.
