MLM Botwatch 31 - A thread for people concerned that a friend or family member has disappeared into the world of MLM

[GavinFromTradingStandards]

New thread Huns

Very .........restrained of you all.

More damning stuff against Salonbot on your thread @TheRealBarnbot. Someone with a disabled child needing an operation blocked by her when she asked questions. I wonder when she's going to come out of hiding?

OMG that poor lady with the disabled child
😡😡😡😡😡

And the minions were all encouraged to spend hundreds of pounds to go in at Ruby

And the autoships!!!

😡😡😡😡😡

@TheRealBarnbot you're amazing. I can imagine you genuinely did to well in FL and you seem like a decent intelligent person. There should be more like you then maybe MLM wouldn't be the farce it is.

Should say did "do" well sorry

I had a call from a lady who contemplated suicide. I lost my step father to suicide..... hit a nerve for me. I have no words. I really hope they listen, especially because I have always been a pro MLM person. Come on guys suicide??? How are you treating someone to make them contemplate suicide!! Disgusting on so many levels. I am just heartbroken for these people I really am :(

The top people are all out of hiding commenting on a valentus rep's status at the moment.

windy I honestly did, I worked hard but treated everyone the same regardless of what they wanted to do. The only people I blocked were the ones that behaved exactly like salon moron bot. I gained confidence, knowledge and great friends. Got to experience amazing things with my children and spoil my mum. Its been hard to hear how others were treated. I wanted to be neutral and try and coach good ethics and change this industry for the better but I have realised quickly I'd be fighting a losing battle. So daycare and investigative reporting it is!! ;)

It's the way uplines sign anyone and everyone up, just for the CCs, and the fact that the women signing up are parting with money they can ill afford that makes me 😡

£200 is a lot of money to some people, and that money goes straight up the pyramid.

Yes I think you would be fighting a losing battle. Even in the "nicer" MLMs such as Body Shop at Home they're still cutthroat. They appear all nice and ethical and earth friendly to he outside world and customers but underneath they are just run by ruthless sales people. That's why I left as I wasn't willing to sell my soul and do constanr parties and recruit everyone therefore I wasn't lucrative for them so they were not interested in me.

I did stay in a customer group as I liked being able to still get offers but I've left the group now as I can get what I want from the shop. The final straw was a post in the group asking if "you or someone you know has run out of money this summer and struggling to buy school uniform" then offering a job that can pay £50+ per week. It's not even a job FFS. And it missed out the part that you would need £45 to join (or at least that's what it cost when I joined) so you'd need to sell £400 of stuff before you made back your £45 and had the £50 earnings quoted.

Let their lawyers come after me.... zero f**ks given! What are they going to do? Sue me for showing a video of their employee admitting what a scam their company is. haha don't need a law degree for that one do ya!! twats!

I look forward to reading your investigative journalism @TheRealBarnbot

Hi, quick question. Has anyone heard of drink to shrink? Is it yet another coffee mlm or is it a slogan attached to one of the companies?

Being able to 'buy' a promotion & being encouraged to go on autoship are both massive, massive red flags. Putting aside the fact that it's ILLEGAL to let someone pay more than £199 to join an MLM...

I'd like to see a legal class action by reps & customers against Valentus.

Not heard of Drink to Shrink but a quick Facebook search suggests it's Xerveo?

@fitgirl26 thanks for that. Someone I know is fully "in". I wonder if they really licensed? Or trading illegally like valentus

I'm genuinely not sure as to the legality of any of these coffees. A Valentus Bot stated that "teamies" were panicking and jumping straight to another unlicensed product but you don't know when to believe these people!

But yet, Real, you still apparently still believe in MLM? On what grounds?

Ignore that second 'still'.

Xerveo isnt licensed from what i can tell. Could be wrong.

But stokeflatbotthatdoesntliveinstokeanymore says it is 😜

cosie not all companies, not all people and not all circumstances. It should be advertised as a sales job and people should be given full honest facts of what they will be doing. Its not for everyone and should be regulated more. They dont read how i ment it but its late and i cant be arsed to retype haha you know what i mean

That not they

I've just watched half of BrokeButClaimingToBeLoadedAgainBot's "no dick pics" live. I stopped when I started saying his FUCKING coffee treats MS. "But it's not a health claim!" FUCK OFF. Christ he boils my piss. And I still think he looks like he would send dick pics.

Great work with the new video Natasha. And 10lbs you say? While eating cake? I don't even like cake so I'm hoping for at least a stone in two weeks! 😂😂

It would seem salon is still doing lives for her "team" - genuinely not sure which way things are going to go for her this time.
