shadowplay I don't know about you, but I strongly suspect that no one can be as dumb as this. Her incapacity to offer a lawful reason to withhold key-information, means that Natasha Shingles has effectively admitted that 'FLP' has been hiding a fraud.

NatashaBarnBotShingles · 16/03/2016 17:55

I didn't question it or know the answer because I wasn't actually aware of that! If that's true of course!

Does anyone in a normal job delve into the history,, accounts and religious dwellings of the company they work for???

No? Oh just expected of me then?? 🤔🤔

MimsyPimsy · 16/03/2016 17:56

I guess, throwing, because I hope that Natasha might "see the light". I want official action to be taken against these MLM schemes, and for this there needs to be more whistle blowers. I did vaguely hope it might be Natasha, once she took stock of the position she was putting herself in. But I think it's too hard to face.

Twunk · 16/03/2016 18:00

But you don't work for them Natasha - you are an Independent Business Owner aren't you?

As yes, I look into any company I am going to work for. Very much so. That is completely normal - in fact they expect you to check out any company to which you go for an interview!

Twunk · 16/03/2016 18:00

And yes

Twunk · 16/03/2016 18:02

For example, I would not work for Forever Living at one of their headquarters (salaried staff) because I know they operate a pyramid inverted funnel scheme.

throwingpebbles · 16/03/2016 18:03

So they all make claims to lure people in of willable income and retiring on residual income but actual no one has ever seen any evidence this is ever possible?

Lurkylurker · 16/03/2016 18:03

It's seems that my appearance here made Natasha rethink the 'here for the banter' attitude she had last night. What a surprise! If anything she just made herself and her BFF who she apparently knows nothing aboutlook a little foolish IMHO. I wonder what the next plan of action will be.

buffythebotslayer35 · 16/03/2016 18:04

Hi all! Delurking to say you lot are doing fantastic work in bringing to light, the underbelly of these mlm scams. I have posted before, back in what now feels like b antiquity, when fred was still young, under different username, but then forgot my password...boring story.

Anyway just wanted to say as an outide observer, it is so clear that the most poignant and important questions, are being selectively filtered out by your visiting mlmer's/bots (much prefer bots)

I have been waiting with almost baited breath, for the answer to for example,

  1. Does Natasha know of any of these elusive mlmer's who have retired and are now living off residual income and/or willable income (wth is that anywayHmm)??
2.How many recruits in Natasha's downline, as a rough percentage have been retained since joining and how many have since left (supposedly cos the bizniz just wasn't for them ..... ONLY 2 QUESTIONS that I for one, would love for Natasha to answer honestly....wont hold my near baited breath though....
ambler21 · 16/03/2016 18:05

Exactly shadow you would think the combined weight of evidence (or at least rumour) would at least lead to some hairline cracks to form in the mental mindset dam.

Of course, our research has shown how truly difficult it is to question something which has been woven so intricately into someone's life, persona and thought patterns. How it can be a genuine psychological threat to the sense of self.

Which is why we always, rightly, show so much respect to those who manage to take a step back and look at the bigger picture. I will add that I try my hardest to see things from the other angle, to try and see the good in MLM, to ask myself if I'm being too dogmatic. So far the answer has always come back that there is no genuine 'business opportunity' for the overwhelming majority.

NatashaBarnBotShingles · 16/03/2016 18:06

Oh you got me Eyes.... Caught red handed!

Well.... It all started when I received the call that day from MI5, there I was just whacking another load of primark specials into the tumble dryer when suddenly the phone rang.
A loud & vibrating tone of "who let the dogs out" squealed from my Nokia 3210.
I put my leftover reheated pizza slice down & answered....
"Yo, what up?"

  • "Natasha this is MI5, be calm & listen"
  • MI5? The sofa company?
  • No Natasha MI5 the secret squirrels! ....

Anyway I will cut to the chase...... They asked me to become an undercover shill bot!

  • what's a shill bot? I asked
  • we don't know Natasha although you may be called this on occasion. you will never really understand what it means!
  • ok, I can do that! What do you need me to do?
  • We need you to hide some fraud for an MLM company!
  • yep no problem! Although will I be back in time for eastenders?? I think Ben Mitchell is gonna come out and let's be honest we've all waited years to see his dad's reaction!

....... Epic fail as I'm pretty sure the idea was that I didn't get caught but Eyes.... You're just a genius. Nothing gets past you! 🙄🙄

Without sounding too rude, do you watch a lot of science fiction? 🤔

shadowplay · 16/03/2016 18:06

Mimsy - me too. Honestly, Natasha you seem really bright and fairly switched on (mlm adherence notwithstanding). You have always been polite on here and I believe you have tried to engage in reasonable debate.

I would love it if you could go and have a brew, beer or glass of whatever and frankly, honestly sit and critically think about fl, mlms in general and in the context of these threads and see if you might not just have some nagging doubts of your own.

(Just read that back to myself, I'm sorry if it seems patronising, it's honestly not meant to be)

NatashaBarnBotShingles · 16/03/2016 18:08

LurkyLurker...... What????? 😂😂😂 WTAF? 🙈🙈🙈

Lurkylurker · 16/03/2016 18:12

I suppose you could tell the lovely ladies and gents here what they were being called and threatened with these last few evenings Natasha? Or did it not work the way you had hoped? There are more people than just those on these threads watching. For a bunch of "successful" business women you did not handle yourselves very professionally. Ex 'bots' get just as tired of the lies I guess. As I said, and as you ignored, you all showed your true colours.

Twunk · 16/03/2016 18:12

If I was going into 'business' with a company, I would carry out a great deal of research. Investing money should be taken very seriously. I hope you also encourage others to do the same. I don't mean "listen to motivational talks" I mean proper, diligent research on financials, ethics, ownership and more importantly - who actually earns the money. If someone says "You can retire in 5 years" I want proof. I don't know how long you have been working for FL but I think it's more than that - are you retiring soon?

A shill, also called a plant or a stooge, is a person who publicly helps or gives credibility to a person or organization without disclosing that they have a close relationship with the person or organization

Melaw21 · 16/03/2016 18:19

Sorry shadow I disagree with one sentiment, natasha has generally speaking, but not "always" been polite on these threads. We will have to agree to disagree there... however your other points are well put and I too would be interested in the potential for that outcome!

buffythebotslayer35 · 16/03/2016 18:21

...more immature diversionary tactics then? Thought as much...*de-delurks again

Melaw21 · 16/03/2016 18:21

😂😂😂 great name btw buffy

cozietoesie · 16/03/2016 18:21

Welcome, buffy. Smile

buffythebotslayer35 · 16/03/2016 18:25

Thanks Melaw & cozie

Twunk · 16/03/2016 18:25

Lurky what threats?

Lurkylurker · 16/03/2016 18:29

Twunk I will leave it to everyone's favourite friendly 'not' to explain.

NatashaBarnBotShingles · 16/03/2016 18:29

LurkyLurker.... People are free to react as they see fit! If anybody feels personally attacked they have the right to defend! ..... If they just there and smiled surely they would be robots????

I get pissed off.... I get tired.... I even have a few private jokes about cheese with my mates .... Who's covering up?? Who's hiding?? Remember I'm not the one on here hiding anything! Including who I am! I think you are enjoying feeling like you are getting a little bit of revenge? Why that should involve me I don't know!!

So earlier you were here to not offend.... Now you're on a roll!

I think it's safe to say you are exactly who I thought you were! That must be causing some friction? I really don't even understand why you are here???
