Right there is the type of people who get to the top in mlm.

Ruthless, rude, and selfish and with no consideration for others.

It's not just the cost of the hob but while waiting for a repair they wouldn't have been able to rent the house.

Also they threw water over one of the beds as a 'prank'. Best they wouldn't have done that in their own homes. I wish this would be publicised more so downlines could see what the people they worship are really like.

So scummy isn't it? Get caught damaging something so retaliate with a nasty review.

MLMs encourage dishonest behaviour with fake-it-till-you-make-it etc. This is fake it when you break it.

An fl bot joined a natural, cruelty free fb page I am yesterday to try and sell the new sunscreen.
Apparently it is the best one they have ever used and doesn’t leave streaks like other fake tans!

  1. It’s a sunscreen not a fake tan!
  2. How have they tried it when nobody even knew it was being launched until this week?
  3. It’s not cruelty free.

They got bored off the page within 2 mins of posting.

Spongebobette · 09/05/2019 11:08

does it have the leaping bunny mark?

Norma27 · 09/05/2019 11:11

It won’t as they allow it to be sold in China which means it isn’t cruelty free. I don’t think they can sign reps up there tho as I’m sure mlm is outlawed over there.

Norma27 · 09/05/2019 11:14

I wonder if it did used to have the leaping bunny after having a little look online.

Spongebobette · 09/05/2019 11:16

Perhaps someone needs to ask a FBO? They should be able to find out.

Spongebobette · 09/05/2019 11:19

Strangely I don't seem to be able to post on the FLP UK Facebook page to ask!

Norma27 · 09/05/2019 11:29

If it does have leaping bunny and I’m wrong then I’m sure the law of reaction will soon show us!

Whiterangey · 09/05/2019 11:31

We have tough decisions to make. Do we buy the £18 forever sunscreen or do we go without and cure the resulting skin cancer with Brokes CBD oil? He works closely with melanoma UK don'tchaknow.

DownThePan · 09/05/2019 11:41

I'd nearly forgotten about Broke in all the Global Rally fever!

So in addition to snake oil, he's now peddling dodgy TV subscriptions??!

Twentytwentyhindsight · 09/05/2019 11:42

Roomie is airborne- wonder if Yawn has started looking over her shoulder every two seconds?

Whiterangey · 09/05/2019 11:52

I don't know if it's still the same but I know in the past with a dodgy subscription they would find out and cut you off. TV packages are very expensive but there are legal choices you can make to keep the costs down. Like not have movies and sports.

ImpracticalCape · 09/05/2019 11:52

Roomie and friend's hats are truly unspeakable. Nevertheless looking forward to more of this over the weekend Grin

CurlsandCurves · 09/05/2019 11:54

Jeez Twentytwentyhindsight I read your post as Roomie is Arbonne!

😆😆😆😆

Spongebobette · 09/05/2019 12:05

One of the people going with Roomie has paid for the entire trip herself, and intends to work really hard on her business so that next year she gets to go for free

Words fail me

thetemptationofchocolate · 09/05/2019 12:06

Someone upthread asked why FLP keep on trotting out Insolvency Bot, even though her business is doing so badly.
They have to, otherwise they would have to admit that her business has failed. And that the residual incomes claim is a load of tosh, along with all the rest of it. We shouldn't be surprised by this, as they are all liars.
And this should be their theme tune :)

DownThePan · 09/05/2019 12:08

Just noticed that The Messiah is using his godlike image to promote the efficacy of his groundbreaking CBD-infused skincare range that NOBODY else has (apart from all the other MLMs, Holland and Barratt etc etc)

SaucySausageSandwiches · 09/05/2019 12:10

Who is Roomie? I don’t think I’ve come across her before!

SaucySausageSandwiches · 09/05/2019 12:11

I am loving Broke’s explanations about how his new TV thing is legal 😂

MLMsuperfan · 09/05/2019 12:16

Yeah love Broke's new TV thing.

"It also allows you to make Unlimited £75 INSTANT CASH payouts!! When you help others get set up to join the Streaming Party.."

Uh right so it's a pyramid scheme. So surprising.

Medee · 09/05/2019 12:23

Do you just talk about Forever Living here? Is Tropics another MLM, as various friends and acquaintances seem to be signing up to it as they "loved the product" so much! I don't mind the stuff I have tried, and their eco claims appeal but I am overall sceptical especially as Lord Sugar is an investor.

leasedaudi · 09/05/2019 12:25

@Medee we do discuss mlms like tropic, it's just that it's FL's annual shin-dig right now, so the FL commentary is going to be fairly epic for the moment!

Did some digging around. One of Yawn's minions who was 😳 at the crummy yellow backpack post has this as her cover photo on her own fb profile. I couldn't not post it here!
