I have an Usborne bot who's qualified for a trip - obviously now using it as a hook to draw more people in. "So lucky to work with this brilliant company, anyone could do this" blah blah.

Anyone know the deal with these travel incentives? They imply that it's an all expenses paid, luxury trip, but I suspect it's more the case that expenses are tightly controlled, maybe rooms are shared or it's only half-board etc, so they actually need to dip into their own money quite a bit (as well as all the spending on CCs or equivalent in order to qualify).

I have a few friends who seem pretty impressed with Usborne bot's claims - hopefully not to the point of signing up!

Norma27 · 03/11/2019 17:53

Thank you Dora! Will be interesting to see how many do qualify for Australia.

Saw this on Viz’s FB feed. Great biznizz venture for bots who’ve given up MLMs. Grin

I see Yawns gig in Botswana was a sell out. Maybe the audience had gone out for a comfort break.

Don’t be silly @Jigsawpuzzle Grin. Do you think Yawn’s taken her portaloo with her along with the bowl of water? I hope we’re going to be party to pics of the botpotty again. If she’s taken her toilet to Botswana it’s a global toilet - just like her business.

BSintolerant · 03/11/2019 20:10

Ahhh ... Yawn’s Botswana training was a virtual gig. Wonder if she’s got a virtual toilet?

Jigsawpuzzle · 03/11/2019 21:54

Law of reaction Yawn has had a wardrobe malfunction of the black dress variety.
Broke was never going to Indonesia. So he has to create the hospital scenario as a get out clause.The so called job was a scammer to scammer.

Jigsawpuzzle · 03/11/2019 22:26

My mistake black dress still there. Did not check through all the tat photos.

Spongebobette · 04/11/2019 14:41

Nurse did a Live about 12 months ago on positive mindset, (in which she said that she believes that being positive attracts good things, she's been listening to O'Conman tapes).
She says that November is a great time to join the business because people need a way to pay off their credit card bills in January...and she says just think, if you started now, what you could achieve in 2 or 3 months

I wish she'd watch it herself, now, a year later, and ask herself what she has actually achieved in that time.

willdoitinaminute · 04/11/2019 15:20

Noticed Yawn is looking for recommendations for orthodontists for her daughter. Slightly worried that my DCs orthodontist was mentioned several times.

Spongebobette · 04/11/2019 16:10

is this a health claim?

drinking aloe gel...'injects vitamins and minerals into the skin cells, making them plump and hydrated = YOUTHFUL'

Twentytwentyhindsight · 04/11/2019 19:23

In the same sense as "blue ant secretions will perfuse through the epithelial layer, leaving it glossy, sweet and fragrant" is a medical claim.

It's just pure bollocks, doesn't make enough sense to even count as a medical claim...

Gotmychocolateimgood · 04/11/2019 19:36

These it's think they can string some scientific sounding words together and gain some credibility. I called out one of the bots on her science, asking for references to legitimate research papers on the subject. She said, if you Google, there's loads of information out there. 🙄

SSDGM · 05/11/2019 17:09

Broke is quiet. Did the puppy selling post get him locked in FB jail?

FranceTeam · 05/11/2019 20:03

I just saw this photo being shared about an MLM selling wraps. Isn’t it the most awful photo ever! Who would be tempted to buy a product based on that!?

Also who but the most gullible would believe those pictures???

Whiterangey · 05/11/2019 21:26

I believe that @nakedavengeragain should have a long awaited update to the Wig and Slease timeline.

acatcalledjohn · 05/11/2019 22:51

Sleaze is in a new relationship and Wig has posted a heavily deformed picture of herself on her FB update re the UK pre registration links being released.

Photoshop ain't her forte.

Spongebobette · 05/11/2019 23:05

She’s melting!!!

MLMsuperfan · 06/11/2019 06:13

Broke is posting on his ex's account. His main must be suspended. He's pushing the financial referral thing. His recent health difficulties haven't changed much.

Spongebobette · 06/11/2019 13:38

In an idle moment I have just rewatched Nurse's live from April (Day 4 - about me, lessons learnt) I which she talks about losing friends because they don't respond to or comment on her business posts, but do comment/ like personal posts. She thinks they should be supportive of her 'business'. She says she's made great friends through Forever (they will drop you in an instant, Nurse, they are not your real friends!)

She says she going to go ahead and build a great business and that she is a 'businesswoman' (how's that going, I wonder)

It's a case study in how someone has been seduced into thinking that anyone not being positive about MLMs in against you personally and how real friends are replaced by fake friends.

donkey86 · 06/11/2019 16:14

A while back someone on this thread recommended the Missing Crypto Queen podcast. I’ve just finished listening to it. It’s fascinating - only mlm adjacent, but it does emphasise how scammy MLMs can be. It’s mostly about OneCoin. Is that one of the cryptocurrencies that Wig n Sleaze we’re pushing, or were they a different one?

dickiedavisthunderthighs · 06/11/2019 16:48

Wig n Sleaze were all over OneCoin. I think they lost a lot of money. Boo hoo etc.

MLMsuperfan · 06/11/2019 22:24

Wig and Sleaze are the perfect victims, if you think about it. Greedy and gullible

SnoogyWoo · 06/11/2019 22:29

That poor woman getting mixed up with Sleaze, can you imagine the amount of crap he has fed her!
