I feel exactly the same.

She makes me rage- I honestly think she just can't have any feelings.
Have u seen the statement on the bot who kicked this all off Facebook page?
She talks about salonbot in her statement. Apparently salonbot has deleted all her YouTube videos that taught people how to sell the coffee.
I honestly believe she knows exactly what she's doing and doesn't care who she shits on to get where she wants to get.
She's done it before and she will do it again and again.

GavinFromTradingStandards · 08/08/2017 21:42

Jonsey you despise her as much as I do then?!

There is a poster on John's page who clearly hates salon as much as I do-I get the feeling he's lost family/friends to MLM. It's horrendous the damage these scams do.

acatcalledjohn · 08/08/2017 21:49

Salonbot makes highstreethoneybot look like a novice at the whole scamming thing. And that takes some doing. Mind you, with LTW and the ponzi she was part of that's hardly surprising.

They both know damned well what they are doing.

Whomever it was upthread who said that salonbot will come back from her honeymoon with a "I'm leaving Valentus for the most amazing [insert scammy MLM of choice] opportunity" is pretty likely to be right.

Excellent job on the name change by the way, @GavinFromTradingStandards. I read it this morning and it made me start the day with a smile!

danbarnes · 08/08/2017 21:49

I'm surprised nobody on our side has commented on StokeBrokeBot's FB since he is in FB jail and won't have any way of deleting anything.

I commented on SalonBot's post on Saturday night. It didn't last long before it was deleted, but the lovely Elle Beau managed to screenshot the whole lot for me, you can see it on Elle Beau Anti-Blogger FB.

GavinFromTradingStandards · 08/08/2017 21:57

John I think it outs me a bit considering how vocal I've been in my love of "Gavin" on the fb page Grin

GavinFromTradingStandards · 08/08/2017 22:02

But if anyone wants to know who I am just pm me (hunGrin) and I'll tell you. I'm pretty boring-I've nothing to hide Smile

Jonsey32 · 08/08/2017 22:04

I bet I despise her more Gavinfromtradingstandards! (How do I get your name in bold?)
I hope trading standards are on to her too.
She needs to be held accountable for what she's done surely? It's almost like a life of crime and she skips from one scam to another with all her bloody followers and still no one challenges her.

GavinFromTradingStandards · 08/08/2017 22:11

fitgirl26 · 08/08/2017 22:14

So TradingStandards Bot has escaped the clutches of Salon Bot and is now in the tender care of Streakyleftmultiple6figureincomeswithforeverliving Rasher Bot. Frying pan -fire?

Jonsey32 · 08/08/2017 22:22

Fingers crossed! Hope it's worked!!

rosesandcashmere · 08/08/2017 22:54

Has anyone heard of 'Vida divina'? An online acquaintance appears to have become embroiled following a very short lived stint in FL & then Arslix I unfollowed but it appears she's now peddaling this madness instead. Lots of #titantakeovers and #askmehow. Took me bloody ages to find out what they ACTUALLY sold. Argh. I've already told her, every time to be careful and get out.

SSDGM · 08/08/2017 23:11

Yep. It's magical weight loss detox tea, apparently. My stepdaughter's sister in law had a downline of 1500 for Acti labs but has just jumped to Vida stating that Acti just wasn't earning her team enough money (familiar story) and is currently bragging that she earns as much in a week flogging boxes of tea @ £60 a pop than she did in a month selling shit makeup. My response to any posts I see on local selling pages for it is this. Well it was, before the Valentus bots put me in Facebook jail for laughing at their demise.

rosesandcashmere · 08/08/2017 23:17

Oh lord I'm definitely going to save that and post it randomly at an opportune moment! I actually feel incredibly sorry for her, she was so very vulnerable and she's been taught to go after people exactly like herself - I really don't think she realises. She isn't the brightest and I don't mean that horribly (no nice way to say it). I will keep banging my 'it's bullshit and be careful' drum... to deafened brainwashed ears. Is savian still going? I yelled in a dear friend's face for joining that - she knew better - she lasted a month thankfully but I always thought it was dodgier than a dodgy dodge machine.

Cakietea · 08/08/2017 23:42

All the sycophantic huns are out in force for highstreethoneybot... poor lil rich girl...

Stokebot a little disappointing on his new profile, but I guess the weekend shenanigans are a hard act to follow lol

Ladiva1971 · 08/08/2017 23:46

So tempted to ask for a transfer to discount German supermarket in Birkenhead!! And how the hell is Angelcardreaderbot a fuckin Qualified personal trainer and nutritional adviser????

Cakietea · 08/08/2017 23:47

Ohhhh can you pm me Angelcardreaderbot? :-) please

DoratheExplorer17 · 08/08/2017 23:51

Within the last hour someone has posted on highstreethoneybot's live, a link to salon bots YouTube training where she openly tells people to buy 16 boxes of coffee and sell for CASH to get your promotion. Basically buying your own promotion. Someone else hasn't also said that a copy of the video has been forwarded to her local trading standards! If they are stopped from selling coffee in the U.K. Then surely that means there is no product and that makes it a pyramid scheme?

Ladiva1971 · 08/08/2017 23:58

done cakietea

Cakietea · 09/08/2017 00:08

The thing is..... highstreethoneybot is extremely labouring the point thatshe is an innocent victim - me thinks she protests too much :-/ what will happen to her downline, whoops, I mean people in the community she has created jobs for, in this case?

SSDGM · 09/08/2017 06:34

They're all in for it too, I reckon. Ignorance is no defence.
I hate the fact that these schemes go after people who are less bright, like rosesandcashmere has said. Brokeflatbot has a "friend" (downline) who is not really the dynamic leader he makes himself out to be but has clearly had smoke blown up his arse to the point he thinks he is an entrepreneur when he's actually a victim of scammers preying on the less able.

God I hope that doesn't sound too condescending. I genuinely feel sorry for the poor bloke. (Not Brokeflatbot)

TrippleFlappyDiamondSparrow · 09/08/2017 07:49

Barnbot has quite Coffee! Called it a disgrace of a company. If you read Charlotte's latest status you can really see how annoyed some reps are feeling right now.

TrippleFlappyDiamondSparrow · 09/08/2017 07:49

^quit

Moose23IsHungry · 09/08/2017 08:26

@Ladiva1971 if Angelcardreaderbot is a qualified nutritionist and personal trainer, I'd be interested to know exactly what her personal diet and exercise plan really looks like. I think she did an online PT course last year and I guess forever living is the nutritionist side of things!

ArbunneHun · 09/08/2017 09:59

I am hoping that this could finally be the end of Salonbot's scammy career.

If anyone still in Valentus is reading this, please think it through:

If you are selling the products, you are BREAKING THE LAW

If you are not selling the products, you are promoting a pyramid scheme and you are BREAKING THE LAW

If you would like to work with us/the authorities, message us at Timeless Vie or Bot Watch on FB and help us to stop more people from being scammed.

Over and out! Busy day ahead... Grin
