MLMs/ Network Marketing: Thread 45

999 replies

Spongebobette · 05/12/2018 12:24

This is the 45th thread in a long series about the dangers of network marketing/ MLMs such as Forever Living, Ariix, NuSkin, Arbonne, Younique, Valentus, TS Life, Monat, Stella and Dot, Tropic, various slimroast/weight loss coffee MLMs 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.
The reality is that 97% of people who join an MLM end up LOSING money. Always bear that in mind when considering paying money to join!

Not surprised he needs a lawyer to see them!

Yawns has been like that for a while after people called her out on her bullshit.

I can't understand Uber's accounts, plant and machinery costs are in there, confusing.

All I know is her bizniz is going downhill the same as everyone else's.

I think I need to stop stalking castles sister. Going on about working towards a bikini body .. which she always has as she has a great figure. As IF it's the decking aloe shite that does it, and not the gym and genes. 🤣🤣🤣

Not to mention the fact that anyone can have a bikini body. They just need to put it be on.

fromdownwest · 29/01/2019 13:21

The top bots are showing off their Fit 15 bodies, and to be fair they have been working hard towards them.

However, this has not been achieved by gloop. From what I can see it has been achieved by a solid gym routine of squats and dead lifts.

Their hard work has paid off, sadly they attribute it to their sham products, and all the minnows will show is the before and after results with a picture of fit 15. Look at this amazing transformation.

However, this is possible with any calorie deficit diet and a robust training schedule.

Paddy1234 · 29/01/2019 13:37

I can't seem to stop myself from following castles sis as well

  • Dolls all out of stock on website *only clothing left at reduced price I think they were offered a pop up shop at Harrods and put all there eggs in one basket at a last ditch attempt at clawing some cash back

Smoke and mirrors

Now onto trying to flog the aloo goop

spanfan · 29/01/2019 15:08

Oh dear. I typed whilst irritated. Scuse the typo.

What I meant to type is that anyone can have a bikini body. All you need is a bikini. 😊

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 29/01/2019 15:55

I'm keenly watching Castle's sister to see what happens when their house sells as there's been no mention of what the "big family decision" is or what the changes will be Hmm

Yawn says:

"Always build multiple sources of income. Never rely on one"

That'll be why hubby has a J.O.B. then

ArbunneHun · 30/01/2019 10:47

Former Valentus #Diamond, now FM Bot (with a fondness for lipfillers) has proudly announced that she’s recruited one daughter and is setting her targets on recruiting a second.

The one she recruited accompanied her on an incentive trip to the Seychelles to get the full “Dream lifestyle” hard sell.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 30/01/2019 14:54

Messiah has recruited 15,000 followers in Ghana, apparently.

Meanwhile, Wig'n'Sleaze are the New World Order, and have a solution to hunger and homelessness.

Keeping it real indeed...

Twentytwentyhindsight · 30/01/2019 15:09

@ArbunneHun - would that be the one also known as Soft Focus Bot?

Ladiva1971 · 30/01/2019 18:49

Now Yawn only has 15 customers? It gets smaller every week!!

ArbunneHun · 30/01/2019 18:56

Yes, it is our beloved Soft Focus Bot! Keeping it in the family...

Ladiva Yawn's never been consistent in her lies

Patchworksack · 30/01/2019 21:20

Place marking - a friend has joined Isagenix and is bombarding her FB feed with their shite. I was invited to go and hear about this marvellous system she has discovered, and have politely declined. I am having to sit on my hands to keep from responding on the more ridiculous claims, so I need an outlet! I feel sorry that she has been sucked in, having looked into it a bit the marvellous products must be costing her a fortune that I suspect she can ill afford. She has a son with SN and previously had a good job that she has had to give up. The promise of easy money working from home must have been v attractive - she is going to lose friends over it.

Hunbot · 31/01/2019 20:22

So yawn is saying she earns £400 a month from sales. You can get much more than that is a normal weekend job without having to spend all your time on zoom calls, driving around delivering things on your own petrol money and having to spend your own money to remain active. Thought these huns earned 6 figures

Shipley · 31/01/2019 21:00

From a Bot who has gone from 8k per month (once or twice) to about 2k pre-tax.
Hmm

"If anyone is looking for a solicitor in Halifax I would strongly advise AGAINST XXXX who have sent us an invoice for £420.00 as we are no longer able to go through with our mortgage application due to my husbands company being taken for a lot of money last year and going into liquidation.

No mortgage lender is going to offer us a mortgage on that basis, therefore not only are we now not in a position to be able to buy a house, we have also lost all the money we paid to the solicitors for various fees/searches etc but they’re also charging us £420 which “must be paid” within 14 days.

The firm know exactly what has happened & to be frank I think it’s upsetting & disgusting."

Lizilondon · 20/03/2019 09:43

Can anyone answer this question for me.
The Valentus Uk website used to say their products were for personal use only, they only had two for resale. It doesn't say anything like that now so are all the products suddenly legally for resale.I do hope trading standards are still involved. Salon and apparently about twenty UK reps are off to Vegas next week. I thought it was nearly finished in the UK it seems to be picking up. Very worrying as I know somebody involved but not allowed to mention it in fear of losing the friendship.
