@BSintolerant yes I saw that about the Tropic thread. I think that’s very unfair on the OP as I’d imagine she’s highly likely to be recognised given that shitrage has such high circulation. I wonder if doing that is a breach by the DM or whether MN needs the funds and has done some sort of a deal. I guess if you post on a public forum you surrender your right to a level of privacy? It’s wrong though as I’m sure that OP wouldn’t have posted at all if she had known posting on MN risked being outed (or at least greatly increasing the likelihood of being outed). I’ve had a look and of course the thread is full of people missing the point and saying “how ungrateful” the OP is Hmm

@Bluewavescrashing and Nurse dutifully copies and pastes Yawn’s posts

CompleteBarstool · 01/08/2020 20:04

Yawn's latest "global entrepreneur" has posted this.

So how long do you give your "own business" before chucking in the towel?

In MLM s it seems to be once you've maxed out your credit card, alienated your family and lost your friends

Oh bollocks, image didn't post.

Place marking

Nurse says

Where is everyone??? I’m giving away a £10 face mask and I’ve only had 2 responses to a possible full house??. I’m going to let this run till I get home tomorrow and also put it on my main page. Thanks to those already having a go. Xxx

Nobody wants your crappy face mask except another bot and your mum.

Malin52 · 01/08/2020 23:35

Has nurse announced her winner yet from the entries of 2? She's late. Note that "all entries will be put into a drawer"...

Also what possesses someone to announce on Facebook that they are off to get their sons feet measured?

Norma27 · 02/08/2020 07:21

The irony of manbot warning others about Ponzi schemes and 'if it seems too good to be true then it is'. What an absolute tosser he is!

Apparently Sunday times are running an article today about inteletravel.

YouokHun · 02/08/2020 08:17

I’ve been looking for the ST article on Inteletravel but can’t see it (looking on my ST app). If it’s not running today my hope is that the amount of info the journalist got means she’s got more time to produce something more embarrassing to IT. some people came forward who had been right on the inside and had some damning evidence but she had a very tight deadline which was a bit of a shame considering the forthcoming nature of the people who came forward.

On the other hand I might just have missed the article or it will appear in the updates online.

Norma27 · 02/08/2020 08:31

That sounds interesting @YouokHun
Let's hope they pushed back the deadline so she could get a better article together.
I don't subscribe but was thinking of buying paper copy today.

YouokHun · 02/08/2020 10:17

The ST article is held over to next Sunday, due to the volume of reports already running, which as I’d hoped gives the journalist a chance to add to the article. Any angles, people, thoughts, ideas, intelligence to add then her detail are on the Lies page or pm the Coalition.

Norma27 · 02/08/2020 10:49

@youokhun that is fab news. Can't wait to read it next week.

Norma27 · 02/08/2020 17:40

It is always amazing how when people get promoted in forever shite, they have spare c9s to sell.
The ex Specsavers manager in yawn's downline this time.
What a coincidence!

SSDGM · 02/08/2020 20:04

8 people on Broke’s pre launch zoom call. This is another Mermology in the making. I give him 3 months til he’s out.

TopperfTroon · 02/08/2020 20:29

Hope you don’t mind me butting in, but I searched to find a thread on MLMs as a friend has just posted that she is selling weight loss products. I can’t see any name I recognise but it does say The Diamond in You (I think that was it.)
I can’t see it mentioned on this thread but wondered if anyone can tell me anything about it?

JasperRising · 02/08/2020 20:42

@TopperfTroon that is probably the name she has given her 'business' not the MLM company. Do you have any info about what the packaging looks like, product names, or any magic ingredients they have mentioned? That might help posters work it out for you.

CheekySmile · 02/08/2020 21:09

@TopperfTroon The hashtag #TheDiamondInYou is being used in Facebook posts from Valentus reps. 100% MLM.

CheekySmile · 02/08/2020 21:10

@TopperfTroon If you have 30 mins watch this great deep dive into Valentus to understand what she’s into

TopperfTroon · 02/08/2020 21:15

@JasperRising thanks - ‘coffee, juice, cocoa, once a day, 100% natural, not meal replacements’ are all mentioned. Photos have a lot of pink on them.

TopperfTroon · 02/08/2020 21:19

Thanks @CheekySmile - I’ll have a look at the video.

Bluewavescrashing · 03/08/2020 04:45

PhD says

I’ve Received More Income On the 1st of Aug Than I Used to Earn in a MONTH in My 9-5 🤯 So Happy I Bet on ME!

When has she ever worked 9-5?! She went to uni, did a PhD then did FL full time for a while before emigrating, right?

Norma27 · 03/08/2020 05:41

@Bluewavescrashing In her live where she was looking at one of Not The Good Girl's YouTube video, she mentions working at Barclays Bank in her past. Probably her work experience at school!

Botbrigade · 03/08/2020 07:04

Broke is a unique kind of special. Getting a tattoo on his neck to cover up a girl’s name. Previous post shows his chest with another girl’s name on that. Video of him in tattoo parlour with mask around his chin. Utter twat.

CodenameVillanelle · 03/08/2020 07:29

That tattoo looks revolting too - on sunburnt skin (what a prick) it looks like it's oozing

Bluewavescrashing · 03/08/2020 08:22

Nurse has put up her c9 before pics on fb. Just in a bra and pants. I do feel sorry for her if Yawn has encouraged her to do this. It's just so mean.
