I'm another member who has been on these threads since the first one; it didn't have a number attached for a couple of threads but, when it became clear that MLM was a serious issue, particularly when it is targeted at women, it slowly evolved into what you see today, Neville.
Initially, I knew nothing about the MLM industry and read and researched with growing anger the tricks used to ensnare women (some men to , I know) and then keep them trying and struggling to succeed. Then, when they wanted to give up and cut their losses see them blamed for failing when it is the business model that is failing them, not the reps themselves.
It is a fact that for one person to 'succeed' ninety-nine downline have to fail. What kind of 'business' is that? Neville I am sure that some posters will put up fresh links for you to look at at your leisure if you want to read some evidence-based financial information about the true cost of belonging to an MLM company.
Yes, it is true that there is at the moment an emphasis on so-called 'top bots' in the industry who are blatantly lying to their downlines and the general public who read their fb pages. It sounds like we are poking fun at or ridiculing these people but actually there is great anger too because we know they are deceiving people, we know that they will say or claim anything in order to recruit more victims to their downline because this is how they make money, not by selling products. That is why it is a pyramid scheme, Neville.
Once you see the truth, you cannot unsee it

I personally never PM names to anyone who asks, sorry, mostly because I don't know most of them and don't care either way.
