Could someone please send me the name of the bot who has put up the photos of salon bots wedding

TrippleFlappyDiamondSparrow · 12/08/2017 16:20

@cakie salons mum has passed away. It could be MIL

Cakietea · 12/08/2017 16:22

There was a pic of her with Salonbot and the man who walked her down the aisle, step mum?

It's fascinating how almost all of the ex-LifeTreeWorld > ex-Valentus have now jumped on to Xerveo "slimming" coffee. I've only done some cursory glancing online about this product, but I've already seen three different websites that have claimed it can cause liver failure!

miffytherabbit1974 · 12/08/2017 16:36

Here are a couple of link from the Behind MLM website which are relevant to what has been going on at Valentus, and then the mass-exodus to Xerveo:

Xerveo: behindmlm.com/companies/ferveo-review-tamarind-based-weight-loss/

MrsGotobed · 12/08/2017 16:41

Please could someone point me in the direction of the photos too.

Also BradfordBot and SleazeBot.

Thanks

miffytherabbit1974 · 12/08/2017 16:43

Not that it's surprising but this is taken from Xerveo's comp plan (which appears on the MLM review website from my earlier post.)

Now, to my eyes, that graph has a very distinct 'triangular', even 'pyramid-ey' kind of shape. Do you agree? Lolol ;)

DoratheExplorer17 · 12/08/2017 17:07

TWO wedding dresses??? Really?

Who is Bradford bot and sleazebot please?

GodlessDomestic1 · 12/08/2017 17:24

Could someone pm me Cockobot, sleazebot and Barnbot please? Thanks ever so.. am losing days to these freds 😀

DoratheExplorer17 · 12/08/2017 18:37

Can someone clarify please? Valentus reps are not allowed to sell their coffee to people in the U.K. Does this mean they can't even sell to people in the U.K. Through their online shop either? Surely that's still selling in the U.K.?

fitgirl26 · 12/08/2017 19:01

TBH Dora I don't have a clue and I don't think the Bots do either! I suspect The Big Bot in Canada might know the answer though...

Is everyone up on Bot names or does anyone need info? PM me Huns!

GodlessDomestic1 · 12/08/2017 19:04

Fitgirl - pm me please hun

DoratheExplorer17 · 12/08/2017 19:11

Well I had one of them trying to flog me some of their coffee TODAY!!! I pointed out that it was illegal and they said it's still ok via their online shop. I'll try and find out

Brittbugs80 · 12/08/2017 19:13

I follow a former FIL rep but not sure of her name on here. After declaring she had sacked her boss and could work and but everything, she ditched her car for a Vauxhall, got a job in a printers, joined a new MLM company and dabbles in Bitcoins.

Are Bitcoins a new MLM? Someone asks her about it and it's the standard, "I'll inbox you hun" reply

SSDGM · 12/08/2017 19:37

Just a thought wot I thunk:
Regarding Gavin From Trading Standards email and his paragraph about Highstreethoneybot having to register as a food business; how would this affect all MLMs selling edible stuff, be they aloe goop, shakes or Magic Drops or tea or coffee? I'm hoping thinking that this could be the way TS will start ridding the UK of MLMs. If they can't sell their crap then it does reduce the "company" to a much easier to prosecute Pyramid Scheme.

CockoQueen · 12/08/2017 19:40

Word on the street is Cockobot is cracking and barking on her team page again with the effect of CAPITALS and !!!!!!!!!!!!! Bet she wasn't so aggressive when she got her 'FRI-PAY' of five figures yesterday. She is probably paying all the lapdogs backing her up with it. Who is sleazebot huns???

fitgirl26 · 12/08/2017 19:43

Bitcoins and other Cryptocurrency are indeed a feature in a lot of new MLMs. Such an easy way to rip people off as very few people understand it.

If anyone wants a good laugh go onto GCC Global Gurus. The posts read like they have been through Google translate. You would think that international business people would at least check their posts to make sure they make some sort of sense!
For example "Even you are sleeping at your home you will get weekly pension from the GCC Group and that will be a lifetime" Confused

lasagnefortea · 12/08/2017 19:43

Can I have a PM list too please? Am keen to see the gory wedding pics

NevilleBennett · 12/08/2017 19:56

My friend who is doing the C9 posted about how amazing she's now feeling, and how much she's loving it.

To which someone replied that they're glad she's feeling better now, as this wasn't what she was saying to them earlier

cozietoesie · 12/08/2017 20:00

Oh Dear. Smile

MrsGotobed · 12/08/2017 20:02

Please, please, please can someone who is up on all the bot names please do a list that can be PM'd to those on the thread.

I'm stuck on who Cockobot, BradfordBot, SleazeBot and partner are (and probably others that I've missed)

imokhun · 12/08/2017 20:17

Can I get the name of Sleazebot, too? Thanks teamies!

Curlyhairedbot (does she have an official nickname?!) currently telling people to shove their opinions where the sun doesn't shine because she doesn't give a "foooooook" about opinions.

Pure #bossgirl behaviour there.

SSDGM · 12/08/2017 20:45

Mummapreneurlipsbot has business cards saying she is a business coach? What?

Moose23IsHungry · 12/08/2017 20:54

Browbot went from boasting about her Audi to selfies at food packing making for starving Africans. Gotta keep the social responsibility in balance of the boasts.

I have no idea who cockbot or Bradfordbot is either. Envy

TheCatsWhiskers · 12/08/2017 20:55

Please could someone PM me barnbot and Cockbot
