We have our own regularly returning bots.

Glossary:

Bots: our affectionate name for victims of the MLM racket

MLM: Multi-level Marketing schemes - essentially pyramid schemes that are just legal because you sell a product. Reliant upon constant recruitment despite there not being enough people in the world to go beyond about 12 levels if everyone recruited 6.

Downline/Upline: the people you recruited and those who recruited you (going up and down the pyramid inverted funnel)

Timeless Vie: Parody of MLM schemes (though you might spot one in particular) that also carries out fearless investigative work

Hommetrepreneur: also excellent parody site focussing on the menz

BotWatch: Rather more serious, keeps an eye on what the Bots are claiming next, particularly in reference to health and income claims. Also fearless.

Inverted Funnel: Timeless Vie is NOT a pyramid - it's an inverted Funnel, OK?

Eyes: Our former member Eyespying who knows LOTS about MLM schemes. He's still our very own #manhun.

An innocent, life limited, severely disabled child. What a laugh this must be for all of you. Next time, dont use charitable efforts as a get out for poor behaviour.

MrshumbleJeans go put your humble pants back on the denim in those jeans seems to be affecting you're (just for the boring grammar police) ability to read a plug for a charity Natasha supports not a card in any game this is a serious charity

Think I'll go get some cheese 😁

Ah.

people who care about you are worried

The section on 'making money' is relevant to my question in particular, I think.

I'm sorry. It seems that the industry 'churn rate' is actually not mentioned as far as I can see.

I am fully aware of the charity thank you!, it was a 100% card she just played, it had no relevance to the conversation at all. It backfired spectacularly, she was showing off that she does charity! So? What does it have to do with people getting scammed? You are an idiot. Fact.

At least not directly.

Wow
Is that how you talk to someone who is upset? Really Botfan, your name comes up a lot in the bullying stories too, I can see why if that's how you talk to people

What I find wonderful is the comment section of the DM article. Most people think MLM gurus are simply con artists - who knew?!

People don't like network marketing because people don't like network marketers. The self indulgent, arrogant "I'm not saying this to impress you, but to impress upon you..." script and fakeness is rather dated now.

That's why these threads started, right?
To take the piss out of the cringey, embarrassing spam we are all so tired of seeing.

The DM article, the Sunday Times article and everything that is coming soon will out them all. The threats in the private groups that are absolutely disgusting though. So much "honesty" and yet they hide in their groups, bullying and shaming. No wonder people are intimidated.

I guess people will just have to read it for themselves and judge. 🙂

Anyone reading this, please do read barnbot's revealing exposé of the reality of MLM.

For some reason Natasha and her simian friend seem to think it helps their cause.

Please humour me post my name I can't wait for this hilarious epic fail! Also any proof come on I actually cannot wait to see this!

No ta is how I respond to someone writing complete nonsense - Someone who is upset what an absolute joke, twisting words not upset shamelessly using a child to have a pop at Natasha who is actually doing some good. No games just support for a charity.

I'm pretty sure this is what I read and then it got twisted!

I notice nothing showing me in a good light ever gets mentioned!

If anyone would like to work with me on our numerous fundraising projects our charity is run alongside young epilepsy it's called KIDS LIKE FIFI... Thanks for the opportunity to plug shamelessly! 👍🏻👍🏻

Thats the hilarity isnt it forever they have their heads so far up their mlm backsides that they cannot see how ridiculously pompous that post makes them look! Please do keep sharing it!

People joining the thread might also find it interesting to go to Timeless Vie and read the third piece called 'The Fear'.

Shamelessy using a child? Are you mental?

I haven't linked to it directly because people might benefit also from reading the new first piece and also the second piece by a very brave and steadfast ex-MLM adherent who has come forward to tell her tale.

That was aimed at Botfan...

have you all seen this? barn bot I am a huge fan!

Hypocrisy????? Did I just read that... Dear me... Deluded much?

As I said, individual MLM adherents are not that important in the scheme of things.

Apologies Botfan from now on I will just call you Natasha's bitch groupie

Not just Natashas groupie!
