Bots not boys!!

Toobusytowee · 09/05/2017 19:58

I've just found a college where the owners also own an MLM. Slightly worrying. And they teach business studies.

I'm wondering what makes a college a legitimate enterprise and what makes a dodgy one. Wasn't there a story a while ago about fake colleges being set up as a front for people getting student visas?

I'm not saying this is what is happening here, I wouldn't want to accuse anyone of anything. I would appreciate anyone's thoughts on the matter. Here is the college. www.citizen2000ei.com/index.html

Pro-planner and the eagles team are castle bots idea so all the profits will be going in their pocket

Spongebobette · 09/05/2017 20:16

It's all going to castle bot and her husband

Her family feature heavily on the leaflets and cards, too

cozietoesie · 09/05/2017 20:28

I'm afraid that I could access most everything, Toobusy, but I couldn't access the details of the courses - got a 'Not found' error. Maybe it's me of course. Hmm

cozietoesie · 09/05/2017 20:37

PS - aren't they one of the colleges etc that had their MT status revoked recently? (Ability to recruit Tier 4 status students?) The PIE News refers I think.

Toobusytowee · 09/05/2017 20:59

Thanks Cozie. I've no idea what you just said but I will try and work it out. This old link for the college has a link to courses

cozietoesie · 09/05/2017 21:08

Not being in the sector, I'm none too certain of the specifics either, Toobusy. I had a quick look see on the college long name though - it's all there. Wink

cozietoesie · 09/05/2017 21:11

Here is a relevant link

You'd best check that it's the same one though.

cozietoesie · 09/05/2017 21:13

Sorry. I've just seen that that should be HT status and not MT status.

Toobusytowee · 09/05/2017 21:42

Thanks Cozie. I'm learning all sorts tonight! I found a good website that gives loads of business info and I found an entry on the college. Looks like it must have closed down, judging by the huge debt it is in. www.bizdb.co.uk/company/citizen-2000-limited-04423956/

The people that run/ran this company are now involved in Ozeanity, along with a former LTW director. I shall be watching this company with interest. Perhaps I'll visit them if I ever need expensive bedsheets or dried fruit powder.

cozietoesie · 09/05/2017 21:55

They could still be active. Stay alert.

Toobusytowee · 09/05/2017 22:11

Ozeanity is definitely active, one to keep an eye on I think. The UK-made MLMs are a bit more entertaining than the American ones.

cozietoesie · 09/05/2017 22:31

Dried cranberries and mattress toppers? I wish your eyesight luck! Grin

Magna · 09/05/2017 22:36

Thank you fitgirl.

I spoke with her today and she is aware it has an element of MLM in it Sad She actually spoke about upside down pyramid selling.

Not much more I can do but keep an eye on her and said if she starts turning into a bot I will pull her up on it.

cozietoesie · 09/05/2017 22:46

Have a look at some of the Botwatch stuff, Magna. Maybe you could have her read some of that - or Timeless Vie - if you could send her a link.

Here is a link to it, anyway.

Thank you cozie.

TFPsa · 10/05/2017 17:39

That 'college' looks like an utterly ridiculous place.

Sean1984 · 10/05/2017 20:13

I think bots were doing the #bowwowchallenge before it was even a thing entertainment.ie/trending/news/People-have-been-taking-on-the-BowWowChallenge-after-he-was-caught-out-Heres-10-of-the-best/393224.htm

acatcalledjohn · 10/05/2017 21:11

JP have just been caught by the JP Lies Exposed FB page using the picture of a professional bodybuilder to promote JP shite. Because tablets make you look all ripped, pumping iron is just overrated Hmm

Now such action would be very naughty. Wink

Just watched the latest live from Salon-bot. Full of tears and "omg, what have we got here" shit again. She deserves an acting award for that one. Crying her eyes out, but no sign of a big red blotchy nose and swollen eyes. Wink

cazzyg · 11/05/2017 16:12

Thought this was worth posting scibabe.com/mlmmadness/

Lots of articles in the scientific social media space about MLMs recently.
