Why are MLMs/ Network Marketing 'businesses' a scam?

[Spongebobette]

This is the 44th thread in a long series about the dangers of network marketing/ MLMs such as Forever Living, Ariix, NuSkin, Arbonne, Younique, Valentus, 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!

If I got given the gift of a forever living business I would be furious.

The gift of a job I haven't positively asked to do?
The gift of 6am zoom calls and spamming my friends and family constantly.
The gift of having to spend my precious weekends at success days, school fairs and launches.

Does this gift say 'you don't bring enough money into the household and I need you to earn more. Happy Christmas darling'

I am confused as to why anyone would think this is a good present. I would rather get a hoover and an ironing board

That's interesting @Dora

I don't think it's the same person though....I can't see any barn conversion stuff on her FB. She's 37 if that helps.

Dora's talking about Welsh upline bot, I believe.

that one has escaped me I'm afraid...

Yes yawn, forever shakes are just as delicious as a Sunday dinner!

Oh my goodness. Someone shared a video of the full room at Success Day on Castlebots Facebook page. There was a time when Castle's team alone would fill a room lathers than that for training!

I can’t see it on castle’s Facebook. Has it been deleted or can’t I see everything?

I don't see it either.

There's nothing to see Norma!

Ha ha BS!
I’m sure I could fit more in my tiny living room than they get at success days now.

Norma, if you could fit them in your living room it would be mistaken for one of their Sizzles!

Do FL bots still do Sizzles or have Sizzles fizzled out. There are more zzzzs in that sentence than you'd find in Yawn's interior design posts.

BS you are on form tonight!
Would love to give yawn another ‘yawn’ post.
Am too lazy to set up new fb accounts tho

Ref - Welsh upline. If you put her name into Instagram, there is a link there to the barn conversion.

Great but hugely expensive conversion.

I would think massive tax bills still to pay for this bot. So it is imperative that a sizeable bonus is coming in April.

Ref - below. I have heard someone previous saying that there were rumblings of Uber 'buying' a manager to ensure the level 3 cheque. So it wouldn't be out of the ordinary for another to play a fast one.

Ah I am friends with CastleBot! Sorry. It is exactly what everyone is saying though.

Hmm it is a public video though!

. Success Day!*

how do you 'buy' a manager?

No idea but I am sure Dora knows!

@bells you will probably need to report your post as it mentions Castle by name.

I find it absolutely mind boggling that anyone could think this was a professional endeavour when the main speakers have their faces (or tits...Yawn!) painted with glitter like a 5th birthday party before going on stage and where even the top "earners" in the leadership team owe nearly £200k to HMRC and can't repay their director's loan. It's a fucking joke and a scamalamadingdong.

Any hints on a fb searchbthat might reveal Welsh upline's id?

@Spongebobette - I'm sure Dora will be able to explain it better, but I believe it involves channeling business/CCs through carefully selected members of the downline to achieve/maximise chairman's bonus. E.g. putting enough business through someone for them to reach manager ** level with the required amount of CCs for Uber to qualify for the next level of bonus.

This would involve spending a certain amount on 'garage purchases' that will be more than offset by the jump in bonus.

Ah thank you

More scammery and fakery, I am not surprised! And no doubt if such shenanigans were reported to Head Office they would be ignored, because the poster girls are what entice the new suckers in.
