MLM Botwatch 56 - New Year, New Thread

[Jasmin82]

Bot-watching into 2020. Hoping it's a good year for all (and the end of MLMs - Hey, a girl can dream!)

Castle seems to be keeping a low profile (on her business page at least... I'm blocked from her personal profile). She has definitely put on weight recently, lots of big ponchos and hoodies. I wonder if it's beginning to dawn on her that 2020 might not be her year?

What I notice is the blatant begging for interaction and engagement on her posts, even going so far as to give a £25 prize for a caption
Or pimping a puppy

A few years ago she didn’t need to beg

Lol....if you've had a crap day just remember that someone has always had a worse day than you.

For example have a look at the photos on Uber's sister's fb post about todays event and look at the expressions of the women sitting round the table

Bored. Shitless.

Ouch!

Omg what's Uber's sister's first name? Can I have a clue please?

So they don't want to show us their ugly shoes, or their dogs, or the salad they are having for lunch, or their imaginary weightloss? It's all for content? NO WAY. I'd never have guessed

She spent thousands on that network marketing guru, and has done all the positivity crap, she's been doing all of the standards mlm shit that used to work, but none of it is working.

She must be so confused. We all know she's all but finished, we know why and that things for her will continue to get worse. She seems to genuinely think things are going to be great again.

Gotmychocolateimgood have a look at Uber's facebook on New Years Day - her sister posts on there to congratulate her for qualifying for some made up imaginary level Level 3 Chairmans Bonus

I wouldn't be shocked if it's getting to the point where Uber and Bloodsucker are the only ones in the UK making enough money to live on.

All those C9's that Castle had must have cost tens of thousands of pounds. I'm guessing they were just to qualify for the rally.

Can't wait for BP to publish who qualified for the rally and at what level.

The global rally this year is between the 26th April and 3rd May, are those GCSE dates? One of mine did their GCSE's last year and I've forgotten the dates already.

I'm excited about the global rally already. I sent the kids out to the park with DH so I could watch the cheques last year 😂

Thanks omg I found her

I can't wait for the global ralley. Absolute highlight of my year!

I think those dates might be immediately before the GCSEs start. A time when the kids definitely need their parents support when stressed with revision.

I clicked one one of the international participants who’s tagged in Leechbot’s feed about the training day.
A whole team have flown over from SA for this training . Down on her feed she talks about helping her down line write ‘authentic personal stories’. The example one she gives is heartbreaking, not inspiring. It’s about a person growing up in poverty sinking money into FL, being inspired by uplines claims of great wealth, then sinking more money in. It’s pretty devastating.

At least most UK FL crew’s down line are mainly in the UK, where there is a safety net. Leechbot may be the most successful, morally this is building teams in areas of great poverty knowing most people will get into greater levels of poverty with their involvement in this. Persuading them to come to the uk to attend training, flights they can probably ill afford.

I'd like to think that the team from Africa are the ones rich enough to afford the flight. One earned a $713k cheque in 2018. There are some very wealthy people on that continent who are profiting from the very poor.

Yes @leasedaudi you’re right; scrolling down on her profile she is in the chairman’s bonus league. I don’t want to imply stereotypes of a continent being in poverty. However you’re also right that the majority of people who they are involved don’t have a lot to lose; but these uplines have absolutely no qualms in getting them involved, and there is little safety net for these people when they can’t afford rent, school fees, hospital bills.

The developing countries recruiting makes me really angry. Yes no doubt some of the recruiter is within middle class and expat communities who aren't living in poverty but the bots definitely do make reference to women signing up for whom the business in a box cost is high enough that they have to save up (ie: they do not have that level of spare cash). At least in this country we have the NHS, universal free education under 18, and a benefit system (even with its flaws). Recruits who get in to debt in African/Asian/Middle Eastern countries don't have that so the impact of debt is even greater. They are also more likely to be supporting larger extended families (obviously the former statements are a fairly general and it does vary by country and between individuals).

Inteletravel “ambassador” Mario Falcone off of TOWIE has made his twitter private after being exposed for calling a travel
Agent who questioned intele’s practices into question a “Fat C*nt”. 😂

Castle is trying very hard to reposition herself as a motivational speaker/ coach/ celebrity MLM success

Castle is desperate, she is not amusing or engaging. I think she will struggle to take word coaching, she comes across as quite cold.

The bird type bot who made it in America in the coaching game, has the advantage, of being glamorous and a very good speaker.

Castle rose the tails of a business at its peak, with no real discernible skills.

I wonder if Forever’s inevitable demise will be hastened due to bots exploiting people in developing countries?

As you’ve said, there’s no safety net when things go wrong and getting into debt can cause all kinds of problems. In Islamic countries getting into debt is a criminal offence which often leads to a long prison sentence. I know westerners who have fled the UAE to avoid being locked up because their fortunes took a turn for the worst (none of them were bots though - they were involved in real businesses which went tits up and left them in a financial hole).

Imagine the backlash and scandal if it came to light that people had ended up in poverty or prison courtesy of the lies and false promises fed to them by the likes of Leach. There would be an uproar.
