Welcome Romoca and Artless . Great to have you on board.

acatcalledjohn · 11/03/2016 09:50

The magnet thing:

"If you are a magnet of health, you attract health"

When I was taught about magnets, north and south attracted each other, and two of the same would resist each other.

So if you are a magnet of health, you attract ill health. A magnet of wealth will attract poverty.

Someone really didn't think that one through.

Melaw21 · 11/03/2016 09:59

Welcome Romoca and Artless, Romoca, dont be embarassed, this is an incredibly insidious scheme, with many years experience in convincing people to part with their money for little or no reward. The manipulation tactics deployed by these 'companies' are what make us all so angry... There are many, many more in your situation and sadly, many many more who didnt see the light nearly as quickly. Whatever you do, try and be honest with those around you that you were misled, dont try and save face, as this is your opportunity to help those around you to avoid falling into the same trap. Working together, we can all help to shed the light on dubious/illegal MLM/pyramid schemes. You may not sadly get your money back, but helping to enlighten others you know, will give you an opportunity to fight back against the architects of these so called 'opportunities'.

It just leaves me with the vision of someone wandering around covered with iron filings, and having to keep brushing the pesky things off.

Too many school science lessons I guess. Grin

Eyespying (et al) At the rate our MN campaign is going, soon it will be common-knowledge that 'MLM' = cultic racket"

Indeed, great work!

Upthread someone posted wrt the toddler who died from meningitis after parents did not take him to the Dr:

www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/canada-couple-treated-meningitis-infected-baby-natural-remedies-syrup-berries-court-a6920636.html

turns out David Stephan (the accused father)’s dad Anthony started “Truehope Nutritional Support” a company to push “EMPower Plus”, a dodgy psychiatric patent-medicine. It’s sold via MLM (natch) and Anthony Stephan is “a devout member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints” (also natch).

Seeing as FL (and no doubt other MLMs) appears to be turning in to a version of mean girls...

Melaw21 · 11/03/2016 10:13

How about we have a 'de-lurk day'? It would be great to hear from
All the lurkers? Even if you dont have time for your story or dont have one and just hate these schemes, we would love for you to give us a cheeky wave and let us know you are here :-) So do come on out of your dusty corners and let us say hello!
😊😊👋👋

acatcalledjohn · 11/03/2016 10:13

Who is ski bot's BFF? Initials?

Patzy85 · 11/03/2016 10:16

Acatcalledjohn - initials are KM.

You'll know when you find her! Infinitely worse than skibot.

Turns out (again, thank you google) that her story was that she was a DJ, rep in Ibiza and appeared on Take Me Out.

Twunk · 11/03/2016 10:28

Melaw I was thinking the same!

Today is Flowers De-lurk day Flowers

ambler21 · 11/03/2016 10:37

Just found KM. Awesome. I quote, 'Living the life of dreams'........... :)

nextyearrodney · 11/03/2016 10:39

waves hello to the lurkers

Do pop in and say hi. We have Brew and Cake

RebeccaMumsnet · 11/03/2016 10:39

Hi all,

We continue to receive reports about these threads. Can we ask again that you follow the Talk guidelines and do not personally attack, mention by name/initials or copy social images that belong to an individual. We will remove all posts that do so when they're brought to our attention.

Thanks all

acatcalledjohn · 11/03/2016 10:46

Rebecca, if they post things publicly, exactly WHY cant we share it here if names are removed? Hmm?

cozietoesie · 11/03/2016 10:48

Best just to be careful, acat. Smile

acatcalledjohn · 11/03/2016 10:50

It would be similar to Kim Kardashian complaining about the media attention she gets. Live your life in public, then deal with the consequences. It's not rocket science.

And up until now Castle Bot has been living a VERY public life. It's her own stupid fault.

Plus, this morning we have had another ex bot join us. Yet another person who has spent £300+ in two weeks and has all of £16 profit to show for it. It's a problem, it's a pandemic, and we've got to fight is t as publicly as they live their lives!

cozietoesie · 11/03/2016 10:50

Might I ask how the hits and likes are doing, last? Smile

acatcalledjohn · 11/03/2016 10:51

Soaring like pigeons I hope Grin

acatcalledjohn · 11/03/2016 10:53

I know cozie, but this whole 'let's not upset the poor little botty-wotties is getting a bit tiresome for the reasons j have mentioned. I know we should be careful, but I equally resent having a 'do as j say, not as I do' thrown at us from the FL camp. It's hypocritical.

acatcalledjohn · 11/03/2016 10:54

And it just fucks me off royally!

Sorry cozie, nothing against you at all! I just hate injustices and don't deal well with people telling me to shut up Grin

Melaw21 · 11/03/2016 10:58

Kinda with you there acat just makes you want SHOUT LOUDER!

cozietoesie · 11/03/2016 10:59

It's MN's ba' after all - and I think it behoves us all not to make life too too difficult for them, acat.

Think thread longevity. Wink
