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!

So Yawn latest post says 'last day working' hmmmmmmm

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 13/12/2018 16:13

Guess whose Facebook post this was taken from on 28th November ?

The exciting thing is, my diary is totally empty for December ... I can spend the month getting excited for Christmas, with my beautiful family & friends

Clearly it's someone who hasn't worked at all, hasn't met up with team, hasn't been to a presentation evening in Gloucester , hasn't been peddling their shite......or so you would think. Hmm

Every time I leave the house I get my husband to take a photo of me by the door to post on social media, because this shows how successful I am and what a great life I have. This is perfectly normal and everyone does it don’t they?

Uber has just posted the normal stock photo from head office from months ago of C9's out for delivery I see

HUNS!! I had meetings in London all day today because I’m a #bossbabe and at least 2 of them took place in the pub and my company credit card little #sidehustle paid for it ALL and one of the companies I met shared their HO Building with none other than Juice Plus!

Sadly I was with my boss so I couldn’t go to their floor and flick the v’s at them like I wanted to but let’s just say it’s not the most impressive place. 😃

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 13/12/2018 19:19

Did BBL really post a photo taken whilst driving in the fast lane of the motorway?! Shock

notsurewhatshappening · 14/12/2018 04:14

Oh dear BBL... not very clever!

SSDGM · 14/12/2018 04:27

So now it’s official that the PowerCouple have uncoupled, do we think that Wig will continue with her Ponzi recruitment? It did seem that her conspiracy theorist ex-beau was the instigator in a lot of their get rich quick hair brained schemes.
Will she continue to insist she’s retired while claiming benefits? Surely even getting somewhere to live will be difficult with her multiple CCJs and also the threat of the bailiffs coming knocking if she does get a fixed address.

For someone who started with Forever Living, she seems to have got herself into a whole heap of trouble chasing profits that will never come.

ArbunneHun · 14/12/2018 08:21

Was it of her arse, OhMyGod?

FaintyMcFainterton · 14/12/2018 10:58

I'm new to these threads and really not sure who is who by all the nicknames. Would anyone be so kind as to pm me the names please?

thetemptationofchocolate · 14/12/2018 11:26

Fainty, we are not able to pm real names. It could open MN up to legal action if we did. But new or not, you are not the only one who doesn't know who most of these people are.

dickiedavisthunderthighs · 14/12/2018 11:41

I'd hope that Wig would now get a J.O.B. and somewhere to live, especially as she has a new grandson that presumably she'd like to be near to.

ArbunneHun · 14/12/2018 17:11

One of Wig’s Welsh enemies posted a candid picture of her on FB a while back. Wig was in a tracksuit in what looked like a branch of Greggs. Unfiltered, pasty-buying Wig bears only a slight resemblance to social media crypto-millionaire Wig, let me assure you.

cozietoesie · 14/12/2018 17:22

She doesn't have a proper office, I guess.

Scammers send bomb threats

Sunshineandshowers81 · 14/12/2018 20:53

Bbl constantly posts pictures and videos taken when she is driving

BSintolerant · 15/12/2018 00:05

Arbunne Are you saying that Wig has been photographed in Greggs looking pasty whilst buying a pasty?

They do say you are what you eat. Grin Take heed, Forever Living bots.

SSDGM · 15/12/2018 00:11

Ah bless. Broke isn’t barred from his local pub any more.

There’s just nothing about him that doesn’t scream “classless arsehole”. Who gets barred from a pub???

BSintolerant · 15/12/2018 00:23

For the benefit of those of you who are not from the UK (yes, Sexy Rexy, I'm talking to you and your friends across The Pond) who may be wondering what Greggs is, allow me to explain: Greggs is not a sex shop: it is a bakery. Well, at least it was a bakery last time I was in there, but what with Brexit and all this talk about backstop arrangements, nobody in the so-called United Kingdom can be sure of anything anymore.

The sort of pasties to which I referred to above are comestibles of the baked variety and should not be confused with pasties worn by burlesque dancers when they've got their baps out.

Having said that, Greggs sell baps too. And buns. Do they sell cream horns or did I imagine that?

BSintolerant · 15/12/2018 00:25

Barred from the pub SSDGM? That's nothing. I got barred from Greggs for mistaking the tomato ketchup for a tube of lube. Grin

SSDGM · 15/12/2018 03:20

I think cream horns are far too elaborate, but you could definitely get your hands on a custard slice.

Thread about Wig on the recycle bot page. Looks like she’s got herself a reputation.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 16/12/2018 08:53

It looks like the recycle bot Ponzi has reached the collapse stage.

Tw1nsetAndPearls · 16/12/2018 16:09

What is the "recycle bot" page?
