MLM Botwatch 30 : A new thread (the 30th!) for people who are worried about relatives or friends who have turned into 'bots' by joining an MLM

[Spongebobette]

New Fred

And in the meantime the exLTWnowValentusBots who all followed her last time are having a feeding frenzy of positive thinking memes and #iamallin hashtags (plus a few digs at the negative haterzzzz out there).

Is this salons old cronie?

I've followed salonbot for quite a while.
If my memory serves me correct, as LTW went tits up she went totally off radar (just like she has at the moment) she was gone for a week or 2 and then suddenly reappeared with her new venture.
She really is a piece of work and as hard as nails. While some of them are totally clueless , I think she knows exactly what she's doing.
Surely it can't go on forever? Could someone really live their whole life like this? She's so young.
I don't understand how so many people follow her so blindly- her track record is terrible and she always seems to be in at the top and well aware of nothing being quite legit.

Yes it is!

Jonsey she has a terrible track record and I suspect a lot of them just look upto her because she's "pretty" and appears wealthy. She ought to be arrested for the scams she's pulled

I'm with you on that. It's almost fraudulent what she does.
It's no different to those cowboy builders who prey on elderly vulnerable people.
She makes my blood boil.

I wish we could get Matt Albright on her case-that would be pretty funny to watch if anything

I could be wrong but I don't think StokeFlatBot knows what the FDA is.

Curls
Yep, spot on, plus 'I am totally innocent of any wrongdoing something something ethics something genuine something honest something something integrity something love my team'

Ahh yes the FDA.... The level of ignorance amongst bots about their own industry is baffling.

The FDA is the US Food & Drink Administration which regulates the food and drink industry in America.

It has absolutely sweet fuck all to do with this country, or even this continent. Most of our food and drink regulation comes from the EU. Quite a lot of the EU legislation is actually a lot tougher than the American legislation (for an example of this, please see the chlorinated chicken debacle).

Even I know this, and I know nothing about food or drink and I certainly don't sell it! When I read some of these idiots spouting rubbish about being 'FDA approved' or otherwise it gives me the rage.

@Gavin omg Matt Allwright ( that's his proper surname I checked!) going after the top bots would be absolute tv gold!

Someone call his agent!

CurlsandCurves Yes it is you're right

He's brilliant in the cringiest way. We should email watchdog

Someone needs to ask if it's also FSA approved! Given that's the equivalent UK regulator ..

And also why Xerveo distributors can sign up as a UK distributor but the t&cs during the sign up process state that the distributor must be resident in the US. Yes I looked at it!

This link is interesting and it seems to be a follow-up article to the one originally written about Valentus Modelbot's scrape with Trading Standards: m.cornwalllive.com/sales-of-illegal-weight-loss-products-under-investigation-in-cornwall-here-s-what-we-know-so-far/story-30472447-detail/story.html

I tried to post a comment under that article Penelopepyramid, about how Valentus doesn't employ people and they are currently operating as a pyramid scheme but it didn't appear. I registered with the site and tried twice so wondering if it was deleted. They're focussing on completely the wrong aspect in the article.

Oh, I've just checked and my comment is there. Maybe more people could add their voices to this?

I've been contacted by a reporter looking for people in Scotland who are willing to share their stories of MLMs. You can be anonymous.

Let me know if you want to email her. Thanks

Thanks, Toobusy. Let's hope she gets some takers.

It's against Facebook rules to have more than one fb account

So do we report the duplicate so he can't promote his rubbish? Or just leave him be purely for the comedy factor?

I need the entertainment Dora !!!

Oh yes, please leave him as I have managed to get a friend request accepted on the new one

I currently have 2 Salon blocked me and I'm too nosy to let that lie

gavin same 😂

I feel like I can't really report somebody for something I'm happy to do myself....that and I secretly enjoy how fickle he is.

Just had a ragey moment and I'm going to share here-

I keep "popping on" to salons fb to see if she's posted-nothing since Saturday. Part of me is thrilled-this surely signifies the end of Valentus and surely some of her minions might see sense.

But-

I'm pissed off. Why does she think this is ok?? How can she talk all these people into a scam like this and just fuck off again?!

She must be some sort of fucking sociopath-I genuinely can't imagine ever thinking it's ok to treat people like that. I hope nobody ever treats her children the way she's treated other human beings.

(I'm aware some of them know the score - but a lot don't)
