New thread, links to follow...

One of my friends who is a juice plus rep lost her dad about 2 weeks ago. What I'm finding really sad is that she's still trying to flog her magic products or sign people up, even on the day of his funeral. I would be given time off from my job!

CAM nope - the person who posted this is uk based and English is their first and only language!

Windy I would be very interested to know where that post comes from originally then (rather than your bot who posted it) - I.e. who her uplines are, and theirs, and theirs etc. If it's FB do the shares let you know that?

From experience I could probably give you a very good estimate of what region; and possibly narrow it down even further than that to possibly the country and demographic group from the structure of English language used.

Is this FL? (feel free to PM)

Not sure if this site has been posted before. It's quite heavy going on the eyes (they could do with some website/content building help) and I don't know who the author is but I suspect US based.

But some useful sourced information.

Hi all! Lurked on your older threads, such eye-openers!

My Younique-bot is gaining a lot of attention by posting about the great things Younique is doing for sexual abuse survivors - like funding a retreat and giving some of their profits to the charity that supports them. This months "kudos" apparently is helping the charity, and it makes me feel uncomfortable if this is actually a lie. Is there truth in it?

Sestra, Younique do support a foundation for sexual abuse victims. It is in Utah and only a few women go a year. They are given workshops and talks based very much on the Mormon faith. Have a look into how the Mormon faith treat women. Timeless Vie did a piece on it.

Ït's ümläüt däÿ ön Tïmëlëss Vïë tömörröw - bëcäüsë Maëlle (Mäëllë?). Now I am very fond of the umlaut and am excited to have reasons to üsë ït.

And yes Sestra, the Younique foundation is very useful if you happen to live in reasonable distance of Utah, are able to get one of the limited places and don't mind a bit of brainwashing with your "recovery". There's no help for other charities or anything in the UK.

Ah, I guessed it wasn't as "wonderful" as they were making out!

Lots of the Forever shill bots are all of a sudden making identical videos about how brilliant Forever is and their lives are. What's that about then? Is it a big recruitment drive because humblebot has left?

I'm getting really sick of seeing pics/videos of bots in their cars, driving/"stuck in traffic" really wish one of them would get spotted by the police.

All their businesses have taken a nose dive, that's why.

Have they really Delurker? Is it due to the CC change?

Probably, partly - but MLMs are also becoming generally discredited and adherents are, in any case, having to operate in a saturated market. The population are starting to wise up.

I think we can allow ourselves a tiny pat on the back then!

Can someone PM me who humblebot is, I've no idea!

Saw this pinned to the local notice board of my local Costa. I wonder wgat a Southern Takeover is????

Looked up one of the names. It's Juice Plus.

I don't think knowing the exact identity of #humblebot is necessary teddy. She is really just a symbol of how a bot has to keep moving before the truth catches up to them.

Is it really ramping up recently? I have never really been bothered much by MLM bots but this last fortnight I have been added to an Avon, Scentsy, 2 Nu-Yu and 2 Younique groups on FB!!

oh and a Juice Plus!

Wondered which would be the first MLM to use the Olympics.....

Incredible that an Olympic athlete would get involved in something so dodgy, especially when they have to be SO careful about what they put into their bodies

I read an article recently about the supplements that some Olympic athletes take, thinking it is just vitamins and proteins. And then they test positive for banned substances. I'll have to try and find it.

The CC change has affected but from murmurs I've heard people are dropping like flies due to the bitchiness and all the dictating who people can and can't talk to.
It's only a matter of time really isn't it. I'm sure it will die down and business will pick back up I just hope they've learnt from the last few months........sadly I doubt it.
