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.

Looks like poaching is the order of the day for Modere. Plenty of Wanker Moves coming their way!

Spongebobette · 02/03/2020 19:09

People can only be ‘poached’ if they are unhappy in their current MLM, so the likes of Yawn shouldn’t worry because all her team is smashing it
Anyway they are independent business owners with a will of their own, not part of a cult or anything..,,,

Wig and Sleaze’s new, last, forever company is LIVE

apparently

Twentytwentyhindsight · 02/03/2020 20:42

Not quite@Spongebobette - they're going into 'test' mode (which is what I thought they'd been in for all those months in which the launch was always due 'next week')...

AlexCabot · 02/03/2020 20:55

My local selling page is being spammed with these ads. So professional..

I'm sure I remember Sacked being all tranquil about a new month because fm was the bomb. Last two months have involved huge stress and begging for orders

MermaidBikini · 02/03/2020 22:02

And yawn.

Having had a brain tumour, treated by surgery. And now under investigation for cervical cancer. I can say. Damn. I fucking wish I had your troubles. Except for your directors loan. I don't want that. All 400 grand

AlexCabot · 02/03/2020 22:03

We're also getting spammed by NY-HAARA reps. Bath bomb MLM, based nearby so I think it's fairly local.

BSintolerant · 02/03/2020 22:04

@AlexCabot That advert is enough to make anyone sign up strait away. Where did I put my jacket. Grin

MermaidBikini · 02/03/2020 22:08

If you report those ads under Scam, they disappear. Will admit to trawling my marketplace and reporting

AlexCabot · 02/03/2020 22:23

I report several a day. It's not a hobby I'm proud of!

Twentytwentyhindsight · 02/03/2020 22:45

@AlexCabot it's a noble & worthwhile pursuit!

Spongebobette · 02/03/2020 23:20

Nurse is doing ANOTHER C9

SnoogyWoo · 02/03/2020 23:25

I think stress is more likely to be responsible for nurses weight loss!

Twentytwentyhindsight · 02/03/2020 23:33

So basically, the £121 Yawn was bragging that Nurse had 'earned' has been ploughed straight back into making Rex & her uplines more money (no doubt it was suggested to her she use it to 'invest in herself' and be herself own best customer)...

Twentytwentyhindsight · 02/03/2020 23:34

*her own best customer

VTechnophobe · 03/03/2020 08:42

Re. Yawn's director's loan - it has increased year on year and gets "paid back" then a new loan taken out for a higher amount. It looks like bed & breakfasting to me. Wouldn't HMRC be interested in looking into that to get their owed tax on the loan? Don't her accountants have qualms over signing off her taxes? It's just all so murky and dodgy.

CodenameVillanelle · 03/03/2020 09:46

So is yawn hoping that a miracle will happen and she can pay back the loan at some point and won't have to keep borrowing more? Because this looks like robbing Peter to pay Paul on a big scale.

fromdownwest · 03/03/2020 11:45

Few observations

  1. Nurse really is past any form of sympathy now, £121 'profit' then spends the same amount on some pseudo science weight loss health plan.
  2. Scary how many people are clambering to ask Homeschool for more information on 'A CHOCOLATE SPREAD THAT MELTS FAT'

Seriously, have these people been lobotomised? Is there an endless supply of gullible, science-phobic fools to sell snake oil to?

One of the comments is from a chap who says he has done lots of research and can't wait for the life changing box - follow up comment from his mate '... another pyramid scheme to make someone else rich...please pal, stop this, have some faith in yourself and get a real job' he replies saying that his mentor who was super successful from his previous MLM has told him he will make thousands.

Horrific predatory scum bags the lot of them, I can not wait until HMRC, or a Regulator or the general public cause these charlatans to lose it all.

9dartfinish2nd · 03/03/2020 11:49

I sometimes wonder how much the spouses/partner's of the bots who are now in serious financial peril really know about what is going on.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if they have next to no knowledge whatsoever of how far down the road to financial oblivion they are.

Spongebobette · 03/03/2020 12:10

Hmmm Homeschool and creepy beard stroking hubby do not look the picture of happiness in their joint live.
He’s been married 3 times apparently.....

fromdownwest · 03/03/2020 12:12

He comes across as so domineering, lives are super cringe

thetemptationofchocolate · 03/03/2020 12:55

If you report those ads under Scam, they disappear.

Fb don't always remove the ad from FB altogether, if it's reported as a scam. Often they just block you from seeing it, but anyone else can still see it.
I reckon about 90% of ads on fb are for scams in one way or another, and I will never buy from, or respond in any way to, anything I see advertised on there now

thetemptationofchocolate · 03/03/2020 13:01

About these directors' loans, can we then say that anyone who is 'bed & breakfasting' is avoiding paying their due taxes? This would make them tax evaders, as well as all their other social crimes.
Nobody likes paying taxes, but most of us do it as we realise that we have to contribute in a positive way to making our society better for all, not just for personal gain. People who withhold thousands of pounds of taxes (or billions, in the case of people like Rees-Mogg!)are shortchanging their own country and contributing to the decline in public services. It is yet another facet of moral corruption.
