I am having a dilemma as the local charity run family centre have announced a pamper day and asked for people who are experienced at hair/make up/manicures and anyone who sells Younique/Neal's yard/bodyshop/tropic etc. They've had responses from actual make up artists but also the bots. I want to be as brave as some of you and message them because I know how harmful mlms can be but a) I don't really know the organisers that well and b) we use the centre and I'm worried it could be a bit awkward (especially as I don't know where the drive for this came from ie: whether any of the day to day organisers or their relatives are involved with MLM).

I suppose I could write to the trustees at the level up but I'd have to send it via the day to day organisers/admin and I assume the trustees would have to pass on feedback. So it wouldn't necessarily mean I remain anonymous from the organisers.

I wish I weren't such a wuss about putting my name to something but I have to use the centre for a few more years and it is not a huge organisation with hundreds of people coming through the door, and it's in a small community so I really don't want a reputation as that person.

OMG I had forgotten about the video Yawn did at a service station with Nurse

Looking at it again I am struck by how predatory Yawn looks. She’s in full battle gear (SO MUCH MAKEUP and red talons) and when the camera pans across to Nurse she looks tiny and vulnerable in comparison

And the conversation is all about goals and dreams; all Nurse really wants is to take her little boy to CBeebies for his second birthday and stay in the hotel. Yawn has evilly hooked her in by making her believe that she can achieve that

GUESS WHAT, it didn’t happen

Wicked Yawn

CanoeDoYouThinkYouAre · 21/10/2019 14:27

I used to feel quite sorry for Nurse but after those posts about cancer I think she's as big a scumbag as the rest. She's just not as good at it.

Spongebobette · 21/10/2019 15:12

Yeah here’s a scale

Victim———scumbag———evil top bot

They are all travelling along the line, although some fall off/ are pushed off/ see the light along the way

SSDGM · 21/10/2019 15:59

If any of you know the fashion label REW, their owner posted on her FB asking not to be approached any more by bots. Cue a “business coach” and FM World bot pretending everything they do is not what they do. Then she got challenged. The “Coach”’s response to the challenge is hilarious.

BSintolerant · 21/10/2019 16:42

What date is the post @SSDGM?

AntiBotics · 21/10/2019 16:49

It’s from yesterday and it’s on the owner’s personal fb page. I searched for Rew and MLM. My MLM bingo card filled up pretty quickly!!

SnoogyWoo · 21/10/2019 17:54

Haha full battle gear!!

BSintolerant · 21/10/2019 18:13

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. I love it when these bots go on the the attack before scuttling off with their tails between their legs when they realise that they’re dealing with people who are alive to the evils of MLM.

Bold Boss my arse!

Just found an email in my spam folder from an Oriflame consultant. Apparently, I had applied to them for a Social media assistant role - work from home (yeah right, and I'm a millionaire).
I discovered it's Oriflame by looking at the link to their "product catalogue".
I've asked them to clarify which job site I applied through and when. More chance of me winning the lottery than them getting back to me.

That post on the REW owner's FB is spot on.

The bot commenting on it is just a nasty POS like the rest of them. This parting shot by her is vile. (Pics 1&2 commenter, pic 3 bot.)

Has any of you clever people who know how to use Companies House checked for this “coach”’s business? Be interesting to see. She soon shut up when faced with the truth.

Had a response. Seems they are using a 3rd party company to post 5 PAGES of the same job around the UK on Total Jobs. I may have reported the postings to Total Jobs.

Has IronBot deleted her page?

acatcalledjohn · 21/10/2019 23:52

I can still see her Halloween hands

Spongebobette · 22/10/2019 00:22

Hmm the ‘coach’ from Tamworth who shills FM perfumes doesn’t seem to be registered with Companies House....

BSintolerant · 22/10/2019 00:34

Her FB page is fascinating, especially the reference to blowing sugar daddies. These bots appear to be so professional - one way or another.

acatcalledjohn · 22/10/2019 07:52

I had a look too at the coach from
Tamworth, including by the other name listed on her FB page, and no joy.

FX Trading was again meant to pay out seed money yesterday. Spoiler alert, they didn't, people are now saying it's a scam. Three words, one of those is Sherlock.

Wig's forever ponzi is almost ready.

Spongebobette · 22/10/2019 11:38

She seems classy

Twentytwentyhindsight · 22/10/2019 11:50

@Whiterangey - Your post re FX Trading and Wig's new venture would have been accurate and current every 21st of the month for the last six months or so.

It really is Groundhog Day for these clowns...

Whiterangey · 22/10/2019 14:52

They then all race into the next ponzi. So many of those burned by FX Trading jumped into another Ponzi the moment it went down a few months ago, they came to FX Trading when other Ponzi's they were in went down.

Why don't they learn? I fully understand that you may get taken in by the first one, but to do it again and again and again, is rather insane.

Spongebobette · 22/10/2019 15:38

Lemmings gonna lemming

tiggertogger · 22/10/2019 16:34

PhD is a numbers geek apparently but just did a live where she witters on about 'being in the industry' ie being a scammer, for 7 years. And started in 2014 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ Oh dear. She then announces she has found a new way to scam people 'one more time'. Excellent. When she fails at that she'll have explaining to do to her accelerating women!

TheHorseOnSeventhAvenue · 22/10/2019 17:38

So my favourite clever bot

What happened to DoTerra?

You did not believe in FL products and were not passionate about them - does that mean you were lying when you said you did?

Is the coaching not making you enough money?

The innocent wide-eyed, hair-flicking of never having heard of a travel MLM is disingenuous as we know you read this.

Although the one thing that does please me is you are going to bounce from one scammy, dishonest biz to another and lose your own money just like your downline.

You are not special and thinking you are super clever will not help, you too will lose.

Also, as another of your comments mindset is all and self-belief is everything but when you were in FL earning your alleged 6 figures you were faking and depressed. So no, mindset is rubbish.

Hope you have fun with your new 7 figure mentor. Of course there are people making 7 figures from MLMs but they mostly live in Utah.

Trying to help and empower women is good - trying to get rich off them is disgusting.
