Lies, creative accounting and the Law of Reaction. Network marketers, we’re onto you - and so is the BBC:

I saw that too sponge. How bloody weird and sad.

Whiterangey · 26/06/2019 20:24

She's been told to do that by Yawn. Is she even an assistant supervisor yet? I'm right in thinking that is the lowest rung aren't I?

Norma27 · 26/06/2019 20:28

I wonder how much money she has lost so far.

foreverastri2 · 26/06/2019 20:43

If she brought the business in the box she is automatically "promoted " to assistant supervisor which is the lowest rung! Next would be supervisor!

Nurse hasn't recruited anyone at all I believe. She pretended to on Facebook, but that was just taking law of attraction to a toe curling low.

Spongebobette · 26/06/2019 20:48

I think she recruited her cousin

Sforsh49 · 26/06/2019 21:12

Broke hasn't posted since Monday when someone made a rather derogatory comment on his last post.....

Hi bot-watchers.

Do you have anything on your collective radars about Thrive Global?

Norma27 · 27/06/2019 07:56

I’ve heard of thrive. Typical scammy mlm.
I wonder if it is the one which is supposed to launch here in October?! Apparently one is supposed to.

Singlebutmarried · 27/06/2019 08:21

That might make sense. It’s a US thing, and an ex friend has become involved (previously was involved in younique) but I’ve had to pare back the contact as she’s changed into someone I don’t recognise.

Loads of inspo and fierce type quotes and allegedly own business. But I can’t find what the heck it is she’s allegedly selling.

Norma27 · 27/06/2019 11:25

I think it’s health and wellness but not sure exactly.
Just what we need, another scammy pyramid scheme over here!

9dartfinish2nd · 27/06/2019 13:32

Seen a post on MLM Lies Exposed that Kyani is starting in the UK later this year too.

They have a pension scheme apparently Grin

Norma27 · 27/06/2019 13:44

Maybe it is them rather than thrive then as I’ve not actually seen thrive named.
All as bad as each other tho!

9dartfinish2nd · 27/06/2019 13:52

Doesn't take long to find dirt on Kyani.

Thrive is already here - Wig's ex GCC mate (first platinum) is pushing the patches and shakes like no tomorrow. She was in TS Life before that and just seems to be on the no win merry go round of mlms.

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 27/06/2019 19:34

What has happened to the FL with baby twin girls? She seems to have disappeared from facebook

I don't think we had a name for her but she's the one that was exercising and pushing the weight loss, and back selling the aloe shite minutes after giving birth

AntiBotics · 27/06/2019 20:53

@OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny I think she is former physio bot? I think you’re right I had a look and can’t see her on Facebook anymore.

Hunbot · 27/06/2019 20:58

What struck me about the men in forever picture that nurse and yawn have put up is they seem to be a two halves. The top group are young and fit, the bottom group are middle aged and one is looking very sad in a Christmas jumper. Seems like they started on the top pictures with their attraction marketing and then went fuck it for the bottom ones

spanfan · 27/06/2019 21:10

New twin ex physio mum is still on insta. She was the first bot I found as we share a mutual friend.

She got a letter about the possibility of going to Sydney. BP sent a present too...

A freddo bar. Seriously. What. A. Bonus. 😎😭😎

JasperRising · 27/06/2019 21:13

Come on down spanfan it is a Freddo with a caramel centre... Grin

So many of them are boasting about the fact they are on track to go to Sydney. So not qualified then...

MontanaSkies · 27/06/2019 21:27

That thing that nurse posted about men, sorry M E N, is so weird. Why is it something to celebrate when fewer men are FBOs and yet a man is the no 1 earner? (And let's not forget the M E N raking in the proper big bucks in Utah).

Also, does she think the only reason people are not bending over backwards to sign up is because they perceive FL as "girly"?!

Norma27 · 28/06/2019 06:05

That M E N post is so bizarre. One of the strangest things I have ever read.

Spongebobette · 28/06/2019 06:49

They are DESPERATE for recruits

Twentytwentyhindsight · 28/06/2019 08:14

Just as FX Trading starts swirling down the Ponzi pan, Wig'n'Sleaze are billed to speak at a 'mega' event in London promoting it...

CatherineCookson · 28/06/2019 12:10

Wig's already posted about FX but then tells her followers how they should invest in more ponzis. She claims earnings of $500 a day are gone due to FX closing their mlm side. Wish FB would kick her off social media so people stop falling for her scams.
