Time for a new Fred, huns. We watch bots (people who have signed up to multi level marketing schemes which are thinly veiled pyramid schemes). We expose their lies, in the hope that fewer vulnerable people will be sucked in to buying a fake business. This is not trolling. It's calling them out on their fakery. Welcome, huns.

A relative just joined FM World.

How much is their starter kit?

Hunbot · 26/02/2020 21:09

The irony of wig talking about being real on Facebook. I have no idea what that woman looks like (unless she looks like a cartoon character) as he pictures are so filtered

If only she could learn the difference between your and you’re
🙄

CodenameVillanelle · 26/02/2020 21:41

Whiterangey the starter kits can be cheap I think about £20 but they have a range, and obviously push you to get more and more!

hunzuncovered · 26/02/2020 21:44

Fm is free to join. You can buy the case of tester fragrances for £50 if you want but there's no need for it.

Oh god. phDs coach is hilarious. Apparently a successful person shows success by lounging around, in your lingerie with a glass of wine AND get it photographed. Ah-may-zing.

This is what insta is made for. 😂😂😂😂

Spongebobette · 26/02/2020 22:12

One of whose messages is ‘have faith without knowing’

🤣🤣🤣🤣🙄

spanfan · 26/02/2020 22:17

And her program is called the Sexy Hustle.

That oozes class and business acumen. 😎

Whiterangey · 27/02/2020 00:50

That's how you need to roll in a business meeting. You will then become successful, or get arrested.

I doubt my family member bought any samples, she's always begging for money.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 27/02/2020 06:28

Broke seems to have gone off the radar again, can't see his account...

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 27/02/2020 08:15

The "Sexy Hustle"?

It sounds like some sort of Become an Escort/Attract a Sugar Daddy type programme. Classy eh?!

I'm so heartened this morning. I live in BFF's town and someone has posted on a local group asking for ways to earn money because her OH has lost his job. So many MLM comments until 2 heroic women jump in to warn against the pitfalls and explain people lose money. Suddenly BFF is on the thread posting a Richard Branson video and saying these women have done nothing to help the OP with their comments (umm stopping her throwing good money after bad when they are in dire straits feels like pretty helpful advice to me and certainly better than promising the earth then watching them fail as BFF's advice does). BFF says that she and the other MLMers are offering a viable alternative to a normal job. It's brainwashed nonsense at it's most worrying but she doesnt get away with it. She is called out by these brilliant women and I am so glad that the sensible voices are out-arguing the MLMers so clearly. I do not know how the leeches like BFF can come on these threads and prey on women in desperate situations looking to earn money when they KNOW the truth and the only person who will make any money here is BFF herself. She hides behind a veneer of respectability but seeing her take advantage of a vulnerable woman so openly on a public thread knowing that it will not help her make any money has disgusted me.

Sorry for lack of paragraphs.

ticktock19 · 27/02/2020 13:39

Broke's back but by the look of it unhappy and single again

SSDGM · 27/02/2020 13:57

You need a neck brace keeping up with that useless eater. The whiplash is real.

I have never met the bloke but I cannot stand him. Bot or not, he’s a prize bellend and a parasite.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 27/02/2020 14:57

I can see him now, for some reason he wasn't showing up this morning.

Thought maybe some of the mugs who chipped in to his GoFundMe appeal to send him to Indonesia to peddle illegal snake oil had caught up with him...

Twentytwentyhindsight · 27/02/2020 14:58

Had I for one minute believed that he would actually go, I'd have subbed him in a flash.

ticktock19 · 27/02/2020 15:22

He was definitely gone this morning @Twentytwentyhindsight as I searched for him too and couldn't find him. He's back to get the sympathy vote (again).

Norma27 · 27/02/2020 16:31

I'm earning so much money I need to beg for a Netflix account too! Broke is comedy gold really.

Gotmychocolateimgood · 27/02/2020 17:05

Argh. I started a new J. O. B. this week (which I love and I get PAID and everything!!!). Was sitting in the staffroom and a colleague pulled out a Tropic catalogue for someone to look at- 'let me know if you'd like to buy anything or try anything'. Educated, reasonable woman by all accounts. Gaaaah!

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 27/02/2020 17:18

A FL bot on a local FB page has jumped on the Coronavirus bandwagon when someone asked if anywhere local has hand gel still in stock.

She seems to have boxful at a mere £3.64 a bottle . I'm not sure if people realise that it's a tiny 59ml bottle (not that anyone has said they want to buy it!!)

Bluewavescrashing · 27/02/2020 18:29

Clue is in the name. Coronavirus is a VIRUS and will not be affected by antibacterial gel 😬🙄

I think Tropic is a minimum £2k sales a month to stay active.......

Spongebobette · 27/02/2020 19:46

Bloody hell

Sforsh49 · 27/02/2020 19:56

Yeah, don't listen to me, I've just checked and it's minimum £250 rising to £500 at your first promotion. I knew it was a lot but I think I over guessed! I blame lack of sleep!
