A few people are doing that spanfan. They say they will donate profits to a charity, which sounds nice on the surface. BUT, the bot will be getting their CCs which helps them continue exploiting people, and the poor kindhearted customer wastes their money on MLM crap. Have you seen the chemo care kits? This is where people are encouraged to spend £20 on MLM crap which is then given to people undergoing chemo. So not only do the bots get their CCs, inventory is shifted from the garage and a sucker is identified, the crap products and possibly the MLM message is passed onto a new 'audience'.Let's hope no bogus health claims are made to this audience.

BrokeStokeflatbot appears to have a new venture. A Facebook page supporting network marketers from all companies, giving trainings, doing lives, etc.

Sound familiar, @barnbot? I think he's been hanging around your page...

Annie65 · 25/09/2017 11:10

Just give to the Charity you wish to give to. There is no need to buy crap. Its disgusting and like I have said before, reeks of desperation. I noticed uberbot was doing this a couple of weeks ago so expect an influx of these messages. Angry

RE the Aiiriixx illegal products, I think this was what I was trying to understand... so their products are Not For Resale too?
Unless you buy directly - save £16 so discounted to move the stock? What about the garage stock piling up? How are they shifting that?

TheRealBarnbot · 25/09/2017 14:42

@curls if he takes training from my page he may stop being a dick! Can always hope!

Am I the only on that can see the problem in this picture?

It's a paid for advertorial?

Whatsaldigottodowithit · 25/09/2017 21:55

So it is as obvious as I thought

msgyouhuns · 25/09/2017 22:06

Nu skin bots love to post about the magazine ads as if they've been hand picked to feature in them. The Elle 'feature' also clearly states its an advert. They are either too brainwashed to understand this or just hope people won't realize?

NorthCoast · 25/09/2017 22:10

I live in a very remote part of the Highlands. Saw someone in the village shop the other day with 'I'm a Younique seller, what's your superpower?' sweatshirt on. Really hoping she was a tourist!

danbarnes · 25/09/2017 22:55

I saw a post from an Usbourne Books rep the other day that ended in "let your children loose themselves in the magic of books".

Just noticed that my local rugby football club is 'powered by' Herbalife. Did a quick Google and am shocked and saddened how many reputable sports organisations still partner with them Sad

MrsNathanDrake · 26/09/2017 15:43

Wow! I have just all the Bot Watch threads and I am shocked at just how much of a problem it is.

I was 'Herbalifed' about 15 years ago- pregnant with first child, worried about loss of income.... hmm... think we've heard this one before somewhere...

I couldn't face selling let along recruiting people I actually liked so I was a total failure. My upline changed and then I was under more and more pressure. In the end I walked away using my late stage pregnancy as an excuse and after a few attempts of trying to suck me back in, my upline thankfully gave up. I reckon I lost around £2k in terms of stock i needed to buy to come in a supervisor level and the costs of driving to so call 'training events' any crappy cult rallies in that fucking awful motorbike museum near Birmingham airport.

So I think I've tracked down some of the bots, but would be grateful if someone could tell me who eyebrowbot, uberbot and homewreckedbot are!

God, reading this has brought back some horrible memories.

cozietoesie · 26/09/2017 16:08

I'm glad that you made it out the other side. (And with less lost - both financially and emotionally - than many others.)

Welcome. Smile

Dillite2 · 26/09/2017 16:56

That career income photo on Bot Watch's page really riled some of those Divina (whatever is it or named) bots up. I had so much fun reading the comments and them not actually answering any of the questions concerning legalities. Even that Lola Brainwashing person commented, or was that a joke?

fitgirl26 · 26/09/2017 17:51

I suspect Lola’s post is not a serious one.... Those Vida Bots are pretty nasty when they get riled aren’t they? #dontcry #fuckrightoff

MrsNathanDrake · 26/09/2017 19:42

Thanks @cozietoesie

The scammers I got involved with are still at it as a quick Google search shows.

I am lucky to have got out relatively unscathed. I did get the whole 'if it's not working you're not trying hard enough' which is dreadful.

Brokeflatbot's FB is certainly something to behold.

Just like to say well done to those who have got out and a big well done to @TheRealBarnbot who is nothing short of inspiring in her fight against the bots!

I'd really really appreciate it if someone could pm a translation table for the various bots named on her. Thanks and lashings of aloe gloop for all!

TheRealBarnbot · 26/09/2017 20:10

Well the award for hypocritical wankers of the year goes to Vida Divina! Who have sent out emails terminating the accounts of any rep who has commented on posts or agreed with anything being said on social media. This its called disparaging. Are they for real????? #dontlie

SSDGM · 27/09/2017 00:17

Ooh, wonder if mine will get kicked out too?

Apparently customs were waiting at Manchester airport for the return of the Vida bots after milliondollarchequebot's "blag customs" live last week. As they had to order everything to be delivered they were obvs not carrying any illegal teas or coffees but were searched anyway.

cozietoesie · 27/09/2017 00:22

That would be delivered to their home addresses? Wink

SSDGM · 27/09/2017 06:14

Apparently so! There were very limited stocks of product to order too.

The Vida bots were told the company they are getting their emu oil from was a member of PETA and it has the leaping bunny and that's "amazing".

Turns out its the company owner who is a member of peta and the products do have the leaping bunny but only because they aren't tested on animals. They're full of actual skinny Emu lard but they're not tested on animals. Oh. That's ok then. Good luck selling that to Vegans and Vegetarians. Actually there was a "naturopath" on MLM lies the other day who is a Vida bot. I wonder what she thinks of the animal byproducts in their new face cream.

SSDGM · 27/09/2017 06:27

Sorry! Naturopath Was on Bot Watch!

fitgirl26 · 27/09/2017 07:32

Ah yes - the naturopath who has seen countless people cure their cancer “naturally” rather than using drugs and insists that it’s legal to buy Melatonin in the UK because she’s a NATUROPATH and she knows.

SSDGM · 27/09/2017 07:45

Looking into it, customs had been told of the possibility the bots were importing melatonin to sell and were looking for that.

OhOhDearling · 27/09/2017 07:51

If Emu Oil happened to float anyone's boat (can't say I fancy it) I imagine this company's products is rather more reasonably priced than Vida: www.emu-oil-well.co.uk/index.php?route=product/category&path=61
