So agree Whiterangey we all have to make difficult choices right now and we have to do what we know is best practice. I can’t see my father who is dying of cancer. I haven’t seen him face to face since the middle of March, just by FaceTime twice a day. It means I haven’t been able to help my mother in a hands on way. It’s not a decision I wanted to make but it’s not about what I want, it’s about him and the common good.

I’m not trying to be holier than thou but is really fucking irritating when others just think about themselves like the Bruvs of this world and all the conspiracy theorists insisting that COVID doesn’t exist or is “just like a heavy cold”. It’s people like them that mean people like me (and there are lots of people in my position) may not see our loved ones again until it really is too late. If we all followed Bruv’s lockdown behaviour where would we be now? All these relaxed people who say it’s nothing are benefitting from the majority who have sacrificed a lot to try and contain things.

Hi @blownaway1

It could also be Valentus and if it is you have every right to be concerned for her as they are one of the most controversial MLM's in the UK.

Have at look at this piece the BBC did on both Valentus and Forever Living a couple of years ago.

Lol at Hob Knob 😁

BSintolerant · 08/05/2020 10:57

@Blownaway1 - welcome to the thread! If your friend thinks she can rely on MLM for an income she’ll be living off fresh air. How brainwashed do you think she is at this stage?

I'm loving the name HobKnob Grin

Blownaway1 · 08/05/2020 12:03

I don’t know about brainwashed but she’s posting multiple times a day and certainly wants people to think this is an amazing product that will make people lose 7lb in a week with no diet plan and no exercise ConfusedConfused
Firstly who is falling for this crap?! And secondly I just don’t understand how she can’t see that if something seems too good to be true it probably is.

AlexCabot · 08/05/2020 12:13

Is Sacked bot genuinely trying to use VE Day to sell her shite? Nice.

Whiterangey · 08/05/2020 12:25

Yes she is.

They aren't 1940's prices however, and they wouldn't have been able to get hold of all that perfume in the first place.

ArbunneHun · 08/05/2020 15:03

Always good to see that BBC piece make an appearance... it was fun to film. We did 2 versions, one with me being my Super Soaring Ultra Flappy alter-ego Danniiiii. Eeek huns! I miss her sometimes... Grin

BSintolerant · 08/05/2020 15:23

I miss Daniiiii too. I wish she’d just pop on to recruit the furloughed masses. 😂 Eeeek!

OP posts:
Spongebobette · 08/05/2020 15:30

I suppose Daniiiii must be living off her residual income somewhere

ArbunneHun · 08/05/2020 16:02

In her house full of crushed velvet with her designer dog and #Loubs collection...

Whiterangey · 08/05/2020 16:04

Daniiii is living off her residual income but has also started life coaching to teach lesser mortals how to become as awesome as she is.

Only £10,000!

ArbunneHun · 08/05/2020 16:05

I can also say that she’s back on the Skinny Lard (TM) which had to be reformulated without arsenic. The new version doesn’t have the same appetite-suppressing qualities BUT fewer customers are dying so more repeat sales huns! EEEEEK!

Norma27 · 08/05/2020 16:07

I was thinking of dannii a few days ago. I had forgotten about that BBC piece until now.
Dannii was amazing at popping on.

Blownaway1 · 08/05/2020 16:12

Thank you to the poster who suggested Valentus. I’ve found out the name of the coffee - slim roast and the juice is called trim. This matches the product names on the Valentus website so I’m pretty sure it must be this one .
She said the person who got her selling it used to do Nu Skin. I’m off to google both brands...

BSintolerant · 08/05/2020 16:22

Did anyone ever find out if there were specific posts on Timeless Vie the bots reported which led to FB shutting it down? Must’ve hit a nerve or two! Grin

OP posts:
9dartfinish2nd · 08/05/2020 16:38

There is one high profile person who I know of who left Nu Skin for Valentus, but she only stayed there a few months before moving to FM World, Think she is also Sacked Bot's upline also, correct me if i'm wrong?

ArbunneHun · 08/05/2020 17:28

Sacked Bot’s up line used to be known on here as Soft Focus Bot as her selfies are filtered almost as much as Wig’s! Yes, she did the Nu-Skin -Valentus - FM Shuffle.

ArbunneHun · 08/05/2020 17:30

Broke’s Ex (the one he left his pregnant GF and moved to Stoke for) is also doing FM World.

ArbunneHun · 08/05/2020 17:34

Lots and lots of bots hated TimelessVie. Sacked in particular, after we posted screenshots of a video of her making her daughter drink her own filtered wee to promote Ariiiiiiiiix’s stupidly expensive Puritiiiiiiiiii water filter bottles. We didn’t show the daughter’s face, obviously.

Spongebobette · 08/05/2020 17:43

Clue for Sacked’s upline?

Ajgee · 08/05/2020 17:48

It was highlighted on here a while ago how Mrs Sleaze bot was recruiting/interacting with an ostensibly vulnerable person who was involved with them 3 years ago. It's happening again.

BSintolerant · 08/05/2020 17:59

I’d forgotten about the wee incident!

OP posts:
ArbunneHun · 08/05/2020 18:22

Is he the one they got involved with GCC (the brilliant fake crypto/digital printing ponzi - Wig ‘n’ Sleaze are drawn to blatant scams like over face-tuned stupid moths to a flame)? If so, I think his family got involved last time. They intervened and threatened to call the police on the repeat failure #PowerCouple.
