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

Nothing screams cult more than when you gather for an after event party and everyone is dressed from head to toe in white clothing

You would think having been exposed in a BBC documentary just a few weeks ago they would maybe tone it down a little but no.....Nu Skin I salute you!

BSintolerant · 27/05/2019 16:58

Sounds more like the klan than a cult. Hmm

My Nu Skin bot was at that event.

She posted a really cringey facebook live while walking through the streets of Spain, pissed as a fart. She was so busy talking about taking steps out of her comfort zone and setting a 3 year plan that she didn't realise she had pushed in front of a load of people waiting for a cab and just plonked her arse in the taxi anyway.

Then you could hear them in the background trying to talk to her but she's still doing her live talking about objectives and financial freedom and all that jazz. Then she had the audacity to tell her 5 viewers that the people at the taxi rank were being rude but she didn't care, she was taking that ride anyway.

It was like watching a train wreck.

A drunken hun, slurring her words, barely able to string a sentence together, still working her business even on holiday, doing a live video to literally 5 people while in a taxi half arguing with drunk revellers.

Can't get much worse!

ReformedB0t · 27/05/2019 21:21

FYI if you 'Follow' Yawn on FB you can still be treated to her web of deceit/tall tales 'stories'

CodenameVillanelle · 27/05/2019 21:31

Waaaah I tried that on my sock and she blocked me Grin

SSDGM · 27/05/2019 21:59

@CurlsandCurves
A RevitalU Bot, without a hint of irony, posted that all that criticised MLM had obviously failed in it and we were all jealous losers.

Our boy Broke piped up that he had not worked in over 3 years because of nwtwork marketing . My first impulse was to remind him that he had the sack from a job in Stoke 2 years ago for slagging the company off on Facebook and saying he was going to quit because he was shitting money thanks to Valentus. But instead I submitted to the fact id been drinking gin and let rip.

I’ve had a message from one of his harem at 1.30 am, long after he blocked me asking me where I get off being personal towards him and that his “business had probably paid for his hotel room.

No Hun, he got his FB friends to pay for it because he was sleeping in his car with his dog. I’ve let her stew.

SSDGM · 27/05/2019 22:00

The thread mentioned was swiftly dirty deleted by the OP when she got torn to shreds.

CurlsandCurves · 28/05/2019 07:39

Darn, I miss all the good stuff!

SCM79 · 28/05/2019 07:43

Who is Broke? I think I need him to complete the set!

SnoogyWoo · 28/05/2019 08:23

Yeah he’s one I have never been able to find.

CodenameVillanelle · 28/05/2019 08:38

He sells CBD products under the nickname 'hemp d a d d y'

SCM79 · 28/05/2019 08:52

Aha thanks. So he is not part of the FLP crew??

DownThePan · 28/05/2019 09:10

Broke wouldn't be welcome in the FLP crew as it's all about portraying the dream lifestyle

SCM79 · 28/05/2019 09:15

Portraying being the right word @DownThePan as I can think of at least one who picks up the CB with huge smiles and positive FB posts yet has had to give up her rented house and move back in with her Mum - not mentioned on said FB posts....

CodenameVillanelle · 28/05/2019 09:16

No, he's a low rent bot for sure. Shills CBD and weight loss coffee but seems to leap from one to another whilst posting topless live videos and talking about getting stoned

SCM79 · 28/05/2019 09:20

Broke sounds great craic, I will be sure to look him up now.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 28/05/2019 09:25

Broke is the most low-rent of the serial MLM bots we observe on this thread.

Since he came to my attention, he has been involved with various illegal coffee wheezes, crypto Ponzi schemes, travel pyramid scams and CBD snake oil ventures.

Every new venture is presented as the next game-changer that will rock the World, until something doesn't go his way and he does a big live 'exposing' the company for a scam. These lives are usually quietly withdrawn a very short while afterwards, presumably after contact from m'learned friends representing those he had libelled.

He is that special kind of stupid that thinks he is much smarter than anyone else. He is incapable of learning from his constant mistakes, and has absolutely no sense of self awareness. He projects himself as a high-flying network marketing success, rolled into a caped crusader who will save us from scams and 'Pharmageddon', but his life is a slow-moving repeating series of car crashes he regales us with (in between his frequent spells in FB jail).

Another hobby of his is adding to his extensive list of aliments [sic], which his latest product will, of course, cure.

A real keeper.

spanfan · 28/05/2019 10:31

Any hints on how I might find drunken nuskin bot???

Thank you Huns...

Twentytwentyhindsight · 28/05/2019 10:45

Speaking of Broke, seems his snake oil hasn't worked on his latest aliment, so he has temporarily suspended his one-man crusade against Pharmageddon and gone to the doctor's. Wonder if he's remembered to take the crutch.

MLMsuperfan · 28/05/2019 12:46

Broke is watchable because he lets the law of attraction mask slip so frequently. Inviting us to follow him to riches in between posts about sleeping in his car. Or to replace evil mainstream medicine with whatever he's selling this month, while making weekly visits to his A&E.

Jigsawpuzzle · 28/05/2019 13:25

Do we have a translator for PHD posts?

MLMsuperfan · 28/05/2019 13:30

"I started to BELIEVE I would be the kind of woman who could book a last minute trip to Bali, fly business class, rent a private pool villa and have her own butler...and it happened."

Translation: I'm a ***.

Spongebobette · 28/05/2019 13:42

what an appalling woman.

SaucySausageSandwiches · 28/05/2019 14:59

I wonder if Broke’s illness could be related to his CBD/coffee intake!

thetemptationofchocolate · 28/05/2019 15:04

He is that special kind of stupid that thinks he is much smarter than anyone else. He is incapable of learning from his constant mistakes, and has absolutely no sense of self awareness.

Broke is the Donald Trump of MLMs.
