Maybe Stokeflatbot's frenemy could be CreepBot? Because he is creepy and gross.

Cakietea · 04/08/2017 18:49

That is hilarious, can't afford £30 to change his ticket 😂😂

NewRug · 04/08/2017 19:31

Apparently flatbots business is endorsed by the FCA.

So he will know that the way he is conducting is completely and fundamentally against the FCA guideline and regulations then...

NewRug · 04/08/2017 19:31

Sorry I am long term lurker!

OhOhDearling · 04/08/2017 19:42

super duper diet coffee must be a real money spinner, if he's short of £30 for the train ticket Hmm.

Sleezebot and Stupidmassivehairbot?

SSDGM · 04/08/2017 21:00

Valentus being shut down by reading standards anyone? Something about trading illegally?

SSDGM · 04/08/2017 21:00

Trading standards!!!

miffytherabbit1974 · 04/08/2017 21:02

Yes, I've just seen this on Facebook, with regard to Valentus, though the details seem very sketchy, to say the least. Will update if anything interesting pops up on various bots' timelines.

NewRug · 04/08/2017 21:11

Does anyone know the name of flatbots mlm, itching to report him and his mlm to the FCA for a clear breach.

It's so disturbing to see a bot use the FCAs name to promote the products, its essentially illegal what flatbots did in his "rant" post.

It's very likely he will delete his post if he sees this, but it has been screen grabbed, and as he has so many "recruits" to his none recruiting mlm (fucking irony) that all show the same breach, it would be very hard to back track anyway.

BethanyBarleywater · 04/08/2017 21:12

StokeFlatBot's new guidelines: Don't screenshot your commissions. What,like you've been doing for the last fortnight? Also "Be respectful and professional at all times". Looking forward to seeing more videos live from Wetherspoon's soon then.

Moose23IsHungry · 04/08/2017 21:22

I think it's this bouncelife.co.uk .. don't see any mlm links on their site though.

miffytherabbit1974 · 04/08/2017 21:27

One of the more significant Valentusbots has broadcast a FB Live video, and she states she has been visited by Trading Standards. Due to this visit, she's been obliged to cease trading as the Valentus range of products (including the "skinny" coffee, where you wake up three stones lighter than when you fell asleep) have not been approved for sale in the UK. Interestingly, she's almost immediately jumped on to a new MLM product, which she claims "shifts three times the weight of Valentus' Slim Roast. LOL!

Moose23IsHungry · 04/08/2017 21:30

Whaaat?! So that's the end of valentus?

NewRug · 04/08/2017 21:32

I wouldn't be too shocked that a pyramid scheme has suddenly folded @Moose Wink

SSDGM · 04/08/2017 21:43

It took me all of 5 minutes to find out the new mlm that's apparently all approved by weight loss companies and that is Ariix. Sigh.

Convenient that Salon Bot is about to take a sabbatical from Facebook for her fancy dress party wedding

fitgirl26 · 04/08/2017 21:47

Ooh can you give a clue as to the Valentus Bot? I'm frantically stalking all the ones that I know of!

ScrewedUpLittleFace · 04/08/2017 21:47

Hello! Twunk again in new username

I'm actually on holiday. A real one where I don't have to meet people I hate to talk about rubbish products and receive a large plastic cheque - the cheque itself being large - not the amount!

Stokeflatbot is just the gift that keeps on giving. And some fabulous work on Timeless Vie @toobusytowee

ScrewedUpLittleFace · 04/08/2017 21:50

Omg Slim Roast!

I think jumping from peddling one illegal product to another is the definition of insanity.

SSDGM · 04/08/2017 21:55

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I don't think StokeBrokeBot had anywhere to sleep last night...

SSDGM · 04/08/2017 21:56

Nope.. there was no hotel for the bot. Hence the "travelling light", I suppose...

Moose23IsHungry · 04/08/2017 22:04

That's quite sad then - he can't afford a train ticket let alone a hotel room, and the scummy mlm won't pay for either. A reputable company wouldn't let you sleep rough ..

NewRug · 04/08/2017 22:05

Well if you look st the pictures, today's posts show him wearing the same shirt as last night. Grim

danbarnes · 04/08/2017 22:17

How the hell is SalonBot going to explain this one? With all the recent "FACTS!" videos she's been doing.

NewRug · 04/08/2017 22:17

I think the best thing about flatbot (lost a whole evening to his page tonight) is that he is just so naive to the whole law of attraction.

I don't know if it's an act or not to reach a certain audience, but getting excited about eating out in a whetherspoons, the not affording £30 to upgrade his train and just the way he presents himself just make me wonder.

He is clearly economically inactive. And living in probable poverty. I am a kind person, I want to feel sorry for him, I just don't know if it's an act or the truth!

What I am concerned about is the engagement he has on his posts, from at first glance are probably in a similar finincially vulnerable position.

If a treat at whetherspoons and an occasional expenses paid dinner is what people aspire to then I literally have no more words......
