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

toobusytowee would you like the name PMing? Although if you look at Top Salon Bot's posts from yesterday you'll see it.

holley23 · 01/04/2017 16:29

flutteringkites it's my shameful secret Blush

Jonsey32 · 01/04/2017 16:30

Toobusytowee- I've messaged you.

cozietoesie · 01/04/2017 16:31

I suspect that there are national magazines devoted to the care sector - both online and in print format. Perhaps their attention should be drawn to the issue? Smile After all, that may not be the only case.

Jonsey32 · 01/04/2017 16:44

I'm going to raise it as a safeguarding concern with her local authority and I'm going to contact the CQC- presuming she works in the borough that she lives in , they won't struggle to find her.

Spongebobette · 01/04/2017 18:24

'We aren't really supposed to have our phones out at work but I'm a shift leader'...

😡

holley23 · 01/04/2017 18:26

Jonsey32 Well done. It really is appalling how these people think it's acceptable in any job to be 'working their business' whilst actually working,let alone in a job caring for vulnerable people. Beyond belief.

cozietoesie · 01/04/2017 18:29

It's the nature of MLMs, sadly.

Annie65 · 01/04/2017 18:35

I really cant believe she admitted it on a live video. Do they lose all their senses when they join these mlm's??? I was told, when I worked in the Hospital, to be very careful when posting anything on FB. Hmm

holley23 · 01/04/2017 18:40

I think they're so flipping idiotic that they think there's nothing wrong with it. And they get so many comments from all the other huns/babes saying how 'amazing' they are that there's just no judgment or sense of proportion. It really is completely nuts.

cozietoesie · 01/04/2017 18:42

The MLM becomes virtually all. I say 'virtually' because some shred of .....apparent self preservation has made her keep her existing J.O.B. Wrongly in this case.

PennyP87 · 01/04/2017 18:47

Just name changed from H23 as realised possibly too easily identified.
She's only been at it 3 weeks,possibly why she still has the job alongside her 'business'..

fruityb · 01/04/2017 18:49

You should share the video with the info on and make it go viral!

Jonsey32 · 01/04/2017 18:50

I work in adult social services and I am telling you for fact that if that was one of the care jones that we place at then it would be immediately red flagged and we would look at removing our clients. You can not have staff , let alone shift leaders , taking their eye off then all for one moment.

I am absolutly fuming but have made a list of contacts and will be taking action first thing Monday morning.
Silly silly girl. Deluded and clearly stupid.

Jonsey32 · 01/04/2017 18:50

*homes not jones!!

Toobusytowee · 01/04/2017 19:34

Can someone save the incriminating video before she gets wind of this discussion and wipes it please? Thanks.

Thanks for the PM, I'll see what complaining I can do.

Jonsey32 · 01/04/2017 19:45

Aghhhh how do I save it? I'm a semi tech moron!

fruityb · 01/04/2017 19:46

Can you send me a link and I'll have a go?

PennyP87 · 01/04/2017 20:11

I wondered about that but thought if it was just saved to FB then if she wiped it,it would disappear from saved links. Not sure though..

FusionChefGeoff · 01/04/2017 20:11

Sorry to randomly pop up like this - but is Isogenix one of these schemes?? My previously very rational and cynical friend and her successful (proper) businessman husband went to some mad rally thing in Birmingham last night which just sounds too cult to be real.

cozietoesie · 01/04/2017 20:18

If it's 'Isagenix', then the answer is Yes. It's a MLM. (I only say 'if' because who knows what names people will come up with.)

fruityb · 01/04/2017 20:28

You'd need to download the video as if the link was broken it wouldn't work anymore. You can save videos

miffytherabbit1974 · 01/04/2017 20:32

I'm a bit of a lurker here, but the offending video is still up the person's FB timeline... I'm trying to figure out how to rip it from the page. I guess another option would be to record the computer screen from a smartphone? Thanks :)

ClaudiaWankleman · 01/04/2017 20:34

Hang on, I've not been keeping up. Who is Top Salon Bot?

An acquaintance seems to have fallen deep into something 'tech' related. No more information yet revealed but has been promoting being his own business owner and attending big meetings etc. Have seen, via Snapchat, some kind of office or something. So I'd assume it's not this cryptocurrency? Any ideas, anyone?

PennyP87 · 01/04/2017 20:36

The only ways I can see to save are via a link,not tech enough to rip here,and think all would disappear. Videoing from one device to another may be the only way?
