MLM Bot Watch 17- chat about Utah based tragicomic cultastic racketeering scamalangadingdongs like Forever Living, Ariix, Herbalife, Younique, Juiceplus etc etc etc

[Toobusytowee]

A brief history of the threads so far-

A few people were bemused at their friends' strange personality changes when they joined MLMs.
Eyespying told us they were tragicomic, thought stopping cultic racketeers.
We told him to go away, he was clearly obsessed, and can he go to his own serious thread?
We delved a bit deeper into the issues.
Eyes started creeping back. We told him he was too serious.
We became more horrified at the information being turned up and were sharing links.
Eyes told us aboutMerchants of Deception.
Timeless Vie was set up as a parody about MLMs.[[www.facebook.com/timelessvie
Facebook,]] Twitter, blog, Instagram and YouTube were all used.
People started coming forward, telling of their experiences in MLMs.
We became more horrified.
Bot Watch started on Facebook where links were put up of interest to do with MLMs.
Botwatchblog started and produced factual analysis of the discussions from MN.
MLM members (bots) waded in saying it was all ok. You can earn great money. You just have to work 19 hours a day and not worry about morals.
Bots complained about their names being used. Their lawyers complained to MNHQ so that MN now do not allow us to use bots' names or show screengrabs of their writings even if it is in the public domain.
Blogs and FB posts increased, with the increasing amount of facts and whistleblowers coming forward.
FL lawyer tried to get TV YouTube video banned.
Bots claimed we were bullying them because we were asking them questions they couldn't answer. we were called middle aged women and accused of being drug dealers.
It got a bit nasty so we ate some cheese for a bit and they went away.
Health claims from FL bots now reducing dramatically as a result of pestering from all of us.
We stopped telling Eyes he was too serious. We all started thinking in his language and realised he was right.
Eyes turned out to be very funny and entertained us all.
Sunday Times article produced exposing FL. With a little help from people here.
Lawyers still persisting in trying to ban TV's videos.

Some links of interest-

A film of herbalife victims describing what it is like in their MLM-

A film on how to spot a pyramid scheme-

A comedy review of an MLM product- www.youtu.be/4yr_etbfZtQ

25.23(e) is basically the reason these threads exist!

Actually, they are quite snazzy.

Read the 'Business Review', Patzy. Page 3 of the Full Accounts you linked to.

2500CC is over £400K in turnover! Fuck me. All that money wasted on green jizz.

(Except it's not because we all know it's actually recruiting people that gets the CCs)

25.23 (e) indeed, just one simple clause in their own policies Patzy

last I love the video! Excellent stuff. :)

The thin orange line is yet another weapon in the mlm resistance's armoury!

Pages 3 and 4 of FLUK's accounts make fascinating reading. I wonder if the MLM Resistance will get a special mention as a risk to the company (along with legislation on health and nutrition claims) in next year's report?

So the products come from The Netherlands? Nether Regions more like - which would explain why the aloe juice tastes like ejaculate and grass. You won't catch me smoking that in Amsterdam any time soon! Wait, is that a little mouse (with clogs on) stealing my Gouda?

lol @ special mention of risk. ahahah haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

just sayin'...latest blog views fellow members of the Resistance :)

I wonder how they'd write that.

2016: risks from middle-aged keyboard warriors with too much time on their hands and without jobs, losers, haters and negheads = 100%

Lovely stats, last

last should there be a bit after negheads saying, "... including one highly dangerous individual who is rumoured to own a gate."

How many hits does TV get a month?

In other news ... Resistance intelligence (which never fails) has picked up chatter from a notorious gang of hijackers. They're planning to stay on the ground until the Forever Fibbing South African rally is over in case the bots try to recruit them mid-flight. 😉

months = 12,645

what pleases me most, though, is that we get new viewers every day.

Wow. Those are impressive stats!

Makes you wonder how many more lurkers there are here.

HELLO LURKERS

IF ANY OF YOU ARE EX-JP-BOTS PLEASE FEEL FREE TO PM US ON FB, OR EMAIL US OR WHATEVS

Interesting, looking at the forever accounts it seems around 7 million pounds has been paid as dividends but with Rex being the only shareholder it looks like he's pocketed the money himself.

Omg french those tops are erm very nice. Looking forward to seeing bot pictures in them. They will be hard to miss! Actually they should be forced to wear them all the time so they are easier to avoid!

I know 2 ex JP boys, one went to ariix, one just gave up.

Do you think that - at the least - the one who gave up knows where to come to read some of the background ?

Posted by a bot this morning.

Where do we start on ripping this to shreds? The bit about making Rexie and the top 0.0000000000001 % of the organisation rich? The bit about her working well in excess of 40 hours a week for peanuts? Or the bit about holiday pay/sick pay/pension/guaranteed monthly salary that a J.O.B. gives you (not to mention that a J.O.B. enables you to maintain your dignity and friendships and not alienate those around you).

I wonder if she can point out one single bot that has retired with any income/savings from FL because, as it's been pointed out before, they've never had a shining example of a retiree that they've pushed in the same way as their "poster girls/boys"

Hello again. Resistance aka 'dream stealers' (thought you might like that one).

I have a suspicion that there might be room for a (very slightly) amended version of the excellent 'People who care about you are worried' - perhaps just a slightly different title to cover those almost-outers who are mulling over their future rather than those who are almost-inners. Something where a link could be sent to them to help them feel less alone and despondent?

I'd welcome thoughts on that, though.

Cozie great idea to help the almost-outlers who may be at the stage where they are considering leaving their real job in order to work harder in their mlm to be successful.

Gosh norbert there are so many things you could correct on that! Knowing how many hours bots do I think 40 hours working in a proper job is very easy!

Could someone remind me? Are these wampum items actually made and packed by the adherents themselves? (In some cases, posted and delivered even.) Are the wampum websites maintained and developed by adherents who receive a few dollars a month and a metal badge for their efforts? Are........etc etc etc.
