Brand new thread for a brand new month.

In which this years bonus cheques will be revealed, which is my favourite time of year.

Just seen Broke's new payment card for My Daily Choice.

They sell a sleep spray with Melatonin in it. Melatonin is only available on prescription in the UK, which makes that spray just a little bit illegal.

6 sprays gives you 5mg of Melatonin.

Interesting too that he states that he likes to keep his MLM payments out of his bank account... hello? Hello? Is that HMRC?

SSDGM · 06/04/2018 18:48

I came here to say the same thing, Arbunne!
He always says he claims no benefits, but as he seems to have no discernible income and 3 children plus a partner, this has to be a lie.

Whiterangey · 06/04/2018 19:00

What he doesn't realise is that neither his benefits or tax will be affected by his MLM.

You actually need to be earning money for it to affect your benefits, I imagine he is many thousands down with his MLM's by now, maybe even tens of thousands.

I hate stupid CBD 'Can cure everything' oil. Someone I know who has a rather nasty terminal disease had read on the internet how CBD oil could help with symptoms and may help with lengthening his life. So many people must have been asking their doctors about it who have that particular disease that some scientists wrote about how anecdotes are not proof of anything. They gave scientific reasons why there is no proof and also why it may be harmful in that particular disease. This goes for both the CBD oil, or smoking or ingesting cannabis itself.

Having to tell someone who thinks they have found some kind of miracle cure that it's all bollocks with no clinical evidence is not a fun thing to do.

It can also interfere with prescribed medication.

As long as people are making money from telling people that what they are selling can cure them, they aren't going to stop doing so.

Doing the research for the inteletravel MLM article was a real eye opener. There are so many obvious red flags that are completely ignored by people joining. It just shows how big lies can sit out in the open and not get noticed. I came across loads of other travel MLMs along the way. I have added a few of them to the MLM database.

Reading the last few pages of this thread had also given me new MLMs to add. Glitter MLM? I’d there anything they won’t sell?

cozietoesie · 06/04/2018 22:43

It doesn't look like it. Wink

ArbunneHun · 06/04/2018 23:28

Waist-trainers? False eyelashes... er no. I’ve seen bots trying to flog both this week, so absolutely no limits, it would appear.

BSintolerant · 07/04/2018 02:18

What's the betting that merkins will be the next big MLM product? If bots combined a merkin MLM scheme with a glitter one they could call themselves the Clitetari. Grin

BSintolerant · 07/04/2018 02:19

The cliterati.

ArbunneHun · 07/04/2018 07:31

Sign me up hun!

SSDGM · 07/04/2018 08:05

The post about the payment card has gone. Possibly hit a sore spot there!

Would the Cliterati Facebook group be closed or pubic?

Norma27 · 07/04/2018 08:34

Just had a random nuskin bot friend request me. No idea who she is. Shall I accept?!

BSintolerant · 07/04/2018 10:19

SSDGM 😂

It'll have to be a pubic FB group or the entrepeneurs won't know where to look.

cozietoesie · 07/04/2018 11:37

Oh well done, BS. Grin

cozietoesie · 07/04/2018 11:39

Sorry. And SSDGM also, of course. Wink

cozietoesie · 07/04/2018 11:41

I'll have to continue not saying 'public' though - just in case my autocorrect decides to ......intervene. Grin

Have the Ariiiiiiiiix bunch stopped wailing and sobbing about their #disruptivebydesign travel thingy? It’s very quiet out there from them. No one seems to be booking anything...

Whiterangey · 07/04/2018 18:01

It has gone rather quiet, I wonder if it's ATOL/ABTA related.

Talking of Ariix.

I'm sure she has a bot name but i've forgotten. Was with valentus until she got a visit from Trading Standards and was in the news, youtube video etc. Stopped selling Valentus and went straight into Ariix.

What happened?

Just looked and she appears to be MLM free and spending her time, energy, and money, into raising funds for Dachshunds who suffer with a disc disease. Even going as far as to say she will have a tattoo if she raises a certain amount.

Impressive and selfless, which are words not usually connected to an MLMer.

Does anyone know what happened? I'm sitting here getting more and more impressed by her the more I read and i'm all confused. She is doing a lot of good for dogs for no reward for herself.

ArbunneHun · 07/04/2018 18:21

Ah! HighStreetHoneyBot! I’d forgotten about her! She did some Ariiiiiiiix, some non-MLM cryptotrading and also has traditional businesses too. Be good if she is out of MLM.

Good luck to you, HighStreetHoney x

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 07/04/2018 18:27

haha Yawn is asking for make-up recommendations and people are suggesting Poonique .

Maybe we're heading for a world where all the bots keep each in business by buying each others overpriced shite and leave the rest of us alone. Wouldn't that be lovely Grin

darceybussell · 07/04/2018 18:29

Highstreethoneybot gave up Ariix. Just posted a Facebook status one day saying sorry everyone I've terminated my Ariix account, don't have enough time to do it.

And that was that!

cozietoesie · 07/04/2018 18:51

White

Maybe she's a considerate and thoughtful person once you peel off the MLM foolishness. After all, anyone can fall into the well if circumstances are just so.

Whiterangey · 07/04/2018 18:53

That is fantastic news! Even better news for the dogs she is helping.

It's lovely to hear that someone has broken away from MLM.

cozietoesie · 07/04/2018 18:57

I bet she's much happier now. Smile
