Anti MLM/ Network marketing thread NUMBER 43!!

[Spongebobette]

This is the 43rd thread in a long series about the dangers of network marketing/ MLMs such as Forever Living, Ariix, NuSkin, Arbonne, Younique, TS Life, and MANY MANY more!
Posts here will give examples of the lies told by 'top bots' who portray luxury lifestyles in order to lure in new victims and of the other techniques and brainwashing used by MLMs
Over 90% of people who join an MLM end up LOSING money. Always bear that in mind when considering paying money to join!

@DappledThings That's awful for your nephew. What 4 year old would enjoy spending all day at a regional conference?!

What MLM is it? The aloe gunk one?

That will be an interesting one to look out for! She posts a lot of shite about following your true self which I'm sure will get worked in

It was 3 days DownThePan! It's Arbonne.

Nephew gets the delights next year of the international conference in Las Vegas.

3 days! And presumably the company doesn't lay on any childcare so the kids are going stir crazy whilst sitting through tedious presentation after presentation of "My Story" and "Harassing everyone you know to join your team"

Ah no. There is also childcare because they are such an amazing company who understand how difficult it is being a mum with a career

2 of my Herbashite bots are on holiday in Spain. Looks like they just did some sort of ‘fitcamp’ on the beach. How bloody cringeworthy. They really lose all sense of what is normal behaviour once botted up.

Re. Sleaze's uncharacteristic silence, my guess is that he is in FB jail.
After the tragic events in Pittsburgh, I expect there is less tolerance for his increasingly unhinged antisemitism-tinged conspiracy theories.

Ah, that explains it. I thought your profile was suspended when you were in FB jail but clearly not.

Not being an offensive scamming gobshite, I have never myself been in FB jail and am therefore no expert, but Wig has tagged him since he went quiet and it doesn't appear on his profile...

Makes sense Twenty. He really is a vile little toad.

I've now seen the actual message from SIL. It's an attempt to guilt trip us as "only Aunty XXX has supported me". DH is really pissed off. He's found an article written by an academic that explains how only the top 2.5% make anything from it and wants to send her that.

I report Sleaze every time he posts something vile in the hope that he gets suspended.

me too @ArbunneHun
