Good news from China. They have made it law that MLMs are banned completely as of tomorrow. No recruiting is allowed anymore. Herbalife gets 20% of its income from China.

cozietoesie · 14/08/2017 21:54

I believe that NuSkin and USANA are also in the frame?

Spongebobette · 14/08/2017 22:10

That is EXCELLENT news toobusy

Toobusytowee · 14/08/2017 22:23

Yes, they rely on the Chinese market too. It'll be interesting to watch what happens

TrippleFlappyDiamondSparrow · 14/08/2017 22:24

Excellent toobusy well done China 👏👏

acatcalledjohn · 14/08/2017 22:34

Who'd have thought China would be first in line to ban this brainwashing shite...shame they are corrupt. A bit like Italy investigating one of the ponzi schemes. Ironic to say the least, though good news nonetheless.

I can't believe how much the thread has moved on since last week! I've been a bit absent due to my attendance at a single-dress wedding, and have only just caught up!

Although I'm a bit late to the Neville conversation, the whole 'cliquey bot gossip' kind of boils down to tackling those who are successful and showing them up for what they are. After all they are a hell of a lot closer to the source of the problem/scam that is MLM. Taking down the shills will leave no real established pathetic excuse of a role model for the brainwashed minions. And if the role models cannot sustain their businesses...

...."We have reached out to HLF, NUS and USNA and heard back from the first two stating that they don't know anything about it, but they are reaching out to their people in China for color," Ramey said. "It is a good thing that HLF and NUS don't know anything about it. That does not mean they are not impacted but we assume that they would know if their businesses were being targeted."....

That's a rash assumption, I think. Particularly when the Head of HLF China left in May, if I recall?

cozietoesie · 14/08/2017 23:00

A 'single-dress wedding', acat? I'm staggered that you can even admit that. Grin

crumpetsfortea37 · 14/08/2017 23:15

Hi - long time lurker here. Could someone pm me cockobot and salon bot please. Thx

fitgirl26 · 15/08/2017 07:02

Salon Bot has obviously given a pep talk last night as lots of Valentus Bots are posting about #fakenews and they're all buzzing, #imallin, when you know you know blah blah blah blah. Is there a site they go on to copy and paste standard Bot Talk phrases?

It's ok @cozietoesie, I am happy being a mood hoover without a chance of financial ruin freedom Grin

fitgirl26 · 15/08/2017 09:35

Ah the scammy CEO attacked by Cockobot in her "I'm out" drama llama post. I bet he's desperately trying to hang on to his lucrative U.K. Huns!

lasagnefortea · 15/08/2017 10:12

Blogbot who recently quit a travel MLM to start a blog (he's a friend of BirkoBrokeBot) has decided to write a blog about the struggles of network marketing. About 20+ Bots have responded to this post.

"I'm thinking about setting something up for people who are struggling in NWM, if you're interested please let me know"

msgyouhuns · 15/08/2017 13:01

Please can someone pm me cockobot? Thanks Smile

Toobusytowee · 15/08/2017 14:01

That would be an interesting blog to read. More info please Hun.

Sean1984 · 15/08/2017 14:36

Ment to ask how much this coffee is,but just seen it on timeless vie,US$ 87 for a box of 25 sachets!Shock Seriously, if people are paying 87$ a month for coffee you would want your head examined. 87$ a month,peole must have money to piss!!

cozietoesie · 15/08/2017 15:08

Plastic and savings. ''twas ever thus.

Toobusytowee · 15/08/2017 16:25

It's not just the coffee you're buying, it's the dream and the opportunity. It's a big gambling risk

GoldenKelpie · 15/08/2017 17:23

It is baffling how people are persuaded to spend a fortune (nearly £500 fgs) on some coffee sachets Hmm. I guess that you HAVE to believe they'll help you lose weight..
