Sounds appalling
But they are all exploiters, it just a question of degree
Do you think Yawn ever asks herself whether a new recruit can actually afford to spend £200 on a business in a box, or has the skills to sell? Or whether it’s unethical to encourage someone to believe this business will lift them out of debt or provide an income?
No of course not.
Everyone is a mark

These tales of cynical exploitation are
depressing :(

Did anyone see this? A thread about appalling behaviour from someone who turns out to be in an MLM. www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/4154502-To-think-my-friend-has-taken-me-for-a-mug?watched=1&msgid=104351000#104351000

Wow just read that thread

‘Welcome to the world of MLMs, just leave your morals at the door and come in and learn how to exploit your friendships’

BSintolerant · 04/02/2021 22:11

Cheeky fuckery from an MLM bot. I don’t believe it! Grin

Yawn's latest car brag 🙄

Bluewavescrashing · 05/02/2021 18:51

Apparently Tropic is not mlm.

😂

YouokHun · 05/02/2021 19:10

@Bluewavescrashing the Tropic bot is now posting TLC’s Tropic article in which HM includes some amendments after speaking to Susie M. She’s saying that HM loves Tropic, knows she’s wrong about it and doesn’t understand that it’s not MLM. And it’s only her opinion that it’s MLM when really everyone else knows it’s “Social Selling”. Hmm

@mermaidtales

Yawn's latest car brag 🙄
I had to laugh.

Anyone can "borrow" a car from a garage for a day or two, even if they have no intention of buying one.

I've done it myself Blush (there is a back story but too outing to go in to) but I didn't post it all over my facebook implying that I was thinking of buying it.

LibyanFeet · 05/02/2021 20:04

I’m going to write a book: “Tropic isn’t MLM: and Other Fairy Tales.” Do you think it’s got legs? Grin I’ll publish it under the pseudonym “The Sisters Grimm.”

YouokHun · 05/02/2021 20:10

Yes do it @LibyanFeet Grin

Sorry about the manky footed Tropic shagging cad though. But I did laugh. And you have really spoilt the thread for them with that classic response to the serious bizniz of hunning. I’ve been accused of trolling which has never happened to me on MN before. I was vicious, I said “social selling is MLM”.

YouokHun · 05/02/2021 20:20

I’m in a Waitrose car park and next to me is someone else’s Bentley. Shall I take a pic and say it’s mine? When things open up again I might go and stand in the foyer of some achingly trendy London Club and hastily check-in on FB before I’m booted out. I can’t wait to go shopping again so I can take a photo of an LV bag or some Louboutin shoes through the shop window. Any other tips Yawn?

LibyanFeet · 05/02/2021 20:30

@YouokHun Thank you. Grin I never in a million years thought I’d be singing the praises of MLM - but there we are. Just goes to show the dangers of posting manky appendages and dodgy miracle claims all over social media.

I saw a Bentley in the car park at Tesco this afternoon. Can’t say I was tempted to take a selfie. Grin If it were Waitrose ...

Nurse has posted a screenshot of her 'bonus recap' (doesn't show any figures) and I was immediately transported back in time, remembering opening that email and the abject disappointment seeing a measly £17 when I'd probably spent approx £300 'becoming the product' 🙄

Spongebobette · 06/02/2021 09:45

Why isn’t she telling us how much she got, I wonder. What a mystery

LibyanFeet · 06/02/2021 10:44

Maybe it’s because Nurse has nothing to declare except her genius.

Spongebobette · 06/02/2021 11:51

What do you think that bots think when they obediently go through the lifestyle/ product recommendation/ recruitment/ ask questions for engagement/ share meme cycle of posting and never get any likes or replies?

Norma27 · 06/02/2021 12:38

What a coincidence, both yawn and no vowels have just made £58 in 5 mins recommending products and directing people to their websites!

Mycatismadeofstringcheese · 06/02/2021 12:45

They were both so simultaneously surprised that they used exactly the same number of hand clap emojis 👏👏👏👏👏👏

.... I have just noticed Nurse is now asking questions on her Insta posts ‘anyone getting sick of parks?’ ‘What hidden talents do you have?’ ‘Anyone doing toilet training?

.... tumbleweed

CompleteBarstool · 06/02/2021 16:52

OMG just watched the This Country episode about the MLM Eternal Vitality after seeing it mentioned on here ...."the juice tastes like ass" Grin.

She even looks a bit like Nurse

Spongebobette · 06/02/2021 16:54

It’s a great episode

CodenameVillanelle · 06/02/2021 17:14

Nurse has just posted the same spiel about a lady who ignored her a year ago then got in touch that yawn posted a while ago. These women are so transparently fake.

Spongebobette · 06/02/2021 17:25

Soooo fake

And you think well if they are lying about one thing, why should I trust anything they say?

Sforsh49 · 06/02/2021 18:06

No vowels has posted it too. Cos she was doing this a year ago......

CodenameVillanelle · 06/02/2021 18:11

The difference between the posts that vowelbot posts herself and the ones fed by yawn are so stark that her friends must be WTF Hmm
