Lets keep monitoring these pesky MLMs, shining a light on their nefarious activities, and supporting bots who realise the truth and need support.

Good job Jonsey.

With all this coffee talk, is anyone else getting adverts like this at the bottom of the page? Or is it because I've been looking up Valentus?

Are there any valentus people here? Or ex-valentus? I need a quick word please.

They will be relaunching the make up range at the rally I think

Uh oh another weight loss coffee
Leanjavabean

I assume that drinking this coffee also comes with a ......reduced calorie intake?

No silly. It's MAGIC beans

Scouse Ariiix bot has moved to that hotbed of MLM activity Stoke to be with ex-top Valentus bot to start a rival skinny coffee team right on Salon Bots doorstep... (See Java nonsense above) gets popcorn

Here's one for Timeless Vie:

"Fuckoffee, our new high quality fartisan beverage, is lovingly crafted from magic coffee beans which have been consumed (and shat out again) by a small rodent reared exclusively on a diet of Skinny Lard, garnished with parslaii. It's the highly flavoured aperitif which has already reached the parts which most right-thinking people (and five bots) would not wish to explore without a full risk assessment and a tetanus jab.

Warning: May contain nuts and rat shit. Trespassers will be prosecuted.

Imagine combining a pearl party with a coffee MLM. Instead of cutting up an oyster at an online pearl party, the bots could have a live feed showing their rats shitting out coffee beans.

If they're feeling really decadent they could also feed their rodents with pearls and see what colour they are when they come out the other end.

"These pearls have been through one ring, and now you can mount them on another one and wear it on your middle finger so you can flip it at all the haters, huns! PM me for a bubonic plague ring of roses! Bring out your cash huns!"

I have my first bot! Ran into an old friend at a wedding we'd both travelled to. I say old friend but really friend of a friend - we've never hung out on our own/ don't live in the same city/ never text messaged each other/ not had a lot of FB interaction etc.

After the wedding I got a friendly FB messenger message from her and a friend request (we'd previously been FB friends but I'd deleted her as a friend due to no interaction 2 years ago). We'd been sat at the same table at the wedding and she'd looked after my newborn through her night and our DPs are in the same trade so chatted all night etc so it seemed legitimate and friendly enough. I then looked up her Instagram page to see if it was worth following her...

Uh oh! The last few posts were all Rodial and Field (sp?)... shortly thereafter I got a message about an opportunity I might be interested in (obviously, as a fellow mum at home with a newborn and toddler ). A lovely lady with a good real life job (currently on mat leave) so I don't understand how she could be sucked in!

And now I have to work out how to respond! I've had the second message but haven't opened it yet. It starts off chatting about other things but I'm pretty sure I know how it's going to end...

Sorry Rodan and Fields. I went back on her Instagram and the promo posts are all #bossbabe and #mumpreneur

Can I share some popcorn Arbunne? Watching this one with interest!

Oh so sad/hilarious
One minute despair and leaving wife and homeless and asking if anyone knows of any work going
Next minute doing a 'live' super excited about new MLM full of bullshit about being one of the first 10 in the country and 70% profit (but doesn't name the company or the owners)
Sigh

Tragicomic

He's still looking for evening work & living in a horrible flat in Stoke. Looks like the Ariix & e-Dinar schemes aren't working too brilliantly for him.

He should listen to Svetlana & invest in LardCoin.

Scouse Ariiix bot has moved to that hotbed of MLM activity Stoke...

We should rename it "The Botteries."

Just watched the incredibly tragic Liverpool bot's live excited video. So for the last, however many months he's been banging on about his amazing lifestyle and phenomenal companies. Which have evidently paid him nothing, because he's ended up in a little bedsit with (in his words) 'not a pot to piss in'. He must be quite dim if he thinks anyone is going to take him seriously jumping from one amazing opportunity to another and yet he has nothing to show for it. I actually feel sorry for him because he genuinely has no idea how tragic it looks

Is there not a bot law that you can only run 1 mlm?

LOLZ @ 'the Botteries'! I used to work for a company based there & spent a couple of days a week up there. It is so economically deprived. No wonder it's a huge focus for MLMs: low employment, high poverty. Plenty of vulnerable, desperate people looking for a solution.

Makes me so angry that they are taken advantage of.

It depends on the MLM @Tupperwarelid. Forever are strict, others don't mind as long as the products don't compete. So Ariix + cryptocurrency Ponzi - fine. Ariix + SkinnyCoffee Knock-off... I would say that's a direct compete as Ariix has slimming products.

New blog post out about MLMs being a cult.

Stokes not that bad folks. Its like any other place, got its ups and downs.

Excellent as always, toobusy

Thanks Sponge

Magic magic coffee. Cannot wait for the publication of the clinical trials and the peer reviewed papers.

"I haven't eaten all day though after trying this Crazy CLINICALLY PROVEN coffee but the energy i have had is unreal though ❤"
