I think she’ll carry on running her alleged business in those nooks and crannies of time she’s always going on about.

We should all be grateful she hasn’t set up a Go Fund Me page to pay for it.

Sforsh49 · 07/02/2021 22:20

Ah we're all worrying unduly. Thanks to Forever big bills aren't a problem

RelativePitch · 07/02/2021 22:25

@JaniceBattersby something cataclysmic and devastating happened to very high up Inteletravel bots just before Christmas.I don't know if it was a legal threat from corporate, but they all had to jump ship and find the next thing, that being Jeunesse. They're all pretending it's a brand new launch. It tried launching in the UK 5 years ago and never took off. But yes the Freedom Movement has been set up by the former Inteletravel bots and their downline.

JaniceBattersby · 08/02/2021 00:16

Thanks @RelativePitch. Yes my bot is a former Inteletravel woman and she’s taken her entire downline with her. Would love to know more about what happened at Inteletravel if anyone can shed any light?

Jeunesse eh? What a joke. This all seems a bit more pyramidy than other schemes I’ve seen. Virtually zero mention of any product whatsoever, just lots of binary rockets, shooting upwards, or some shite.

Interesting @RelativePitch @JaniceBattersby. I heard about some sort of disquiet at IT. A year ago I had a bit of a long Twitter thread with some very defensive IT bots and in the last few days I’ve had two of those bots find the thread and say “you were right” (which is pretty brave and honest of them). I might see if I can get them to say what’s gone wrong as perhaps they’re part of the fallout.

Bluewavescrashing · 08/02/2021 01:25

It looks like Bruv has been funnelling products and recruitment through his female bestie for the past year and she is now a vip. Not sure what that actually means-at FL events they would hang around in a rubbish looking roped off area drinking cheap fizz and being twattish. Not so much fun online I guess. Does he still rent that London flat? Castle's baby is due soon right?

CompleteBarstool · 08/02/2021 08:23

@Bluewavescrashing I'm pretty sure he moved out of the flat as I seem to recall some sort of "moving on/next stage of my journey type post".

I'm wondering if he's living with his parents again at the moment but I cant work out where they're living as it's not the converted garage, caravan or Castle's.

Maybe they're renting somewhere??

RelativePitch · 08/02/2021 08:30

@YouokHun. It's something none of them saw coming. They all talk about having been side swiped, having had to put on a brave face over Christmas. None of the top bots would have willingly left IT, they were making very decent income, they must have had no choice. If you could find out that would be amazing!

ketosavedmylife · 08/02/2021 09:01

@Sforsh49

Yawns thatch needs a new ridge, some repairs and a clean....

£17,000

Bet those mushrooms that were so cute a few months back aren't so cute now!

D'you think she'll start a GoFundMe? Grin
Spongebobette · 08/02/2021 09:05

Presumably a good building insurance policy would sort out roof repair, no need to dip into the big pile of Forever Living earnings

But why not use this an opportunity to boast and create the impression you are rich and pretend you are paying the bill with all that cash you have lying around

It certainly is brave of them. Any chance you can get them to open up about their experience, anonymously of course.
Spongebobette · 08/02/2021 09:10

The number of posts about ‘brightening up’ makes me think a certain house is very dark inside

Having lived in a beamed cottage myself a while back I can confirm that they are dark with small windows

No amount of gold paint, twinkly lights etc will change that

ketosavedmylife · 08/02/2021 09:21

I follow someone on yt, a very intelligent scientific type of person, talking about a subject I am interested in.

This morning I clicked onto a live stream (after it had happened though, not live) and started to listen to his chat with a guest about some green algae supplement and its remarkable benefits. My MLM antennae began waving about furiously as phrases began popping up and I thought "oh God no, surely not..."

A quick google of the name (which I'd never heard of) and yes, there it was
"global payout system"
"unlimited earnings potential"
"on your own terms"
"once in a lifetime"
"generous rewards"
"life-changing opportunity"

FuckFuckFuckityFuck Sad. I've listened to most of the chat and this phrase is burned on my brain "work from home in your pyjamas". This is so ad odds with anything my youtuber would ever say that it still echoes in my brain. I am astounded!

I've left a comment cautioning involvement with the MLM business model but, I reckon I am too late because this youtuber has a lot of followers and the guest (who is one of the founders of the company) has managed to catch himself a very big influential fish, indeed, and is not going to let go.

My youtuber has even said that he can now "live off the income" from the product now.

What a bloody pity Sad.

I am not sure if my comment will stay up or disappear. Will monitor.

Spongebobette · 08/02/2021 09:41

It must feel like they’ve hit the jackpot when an MLM bot hooks in someone with an established following

ketosavedmylife · 08/02/2021 09:53

Yeah, Sponge. I am so upset about this as it is clear that this guy has no idea about how he is being used. It just shows that intelligence is no protection against a clever, manipulative person.

Spongebobette · 08/02/2021 09:55

Sadly it’s probably too late as he’s been love bombed and hypnotised so won’t take on board any ‘negativity’ you send him

Lemming20 · 08/02/2021 11:22

More negative MLM chat from people I don’t recognise as regulars on this thread. Excellent Smile

S'ok, did a search and found it!

SSDGM · 08/02/2021 14:23

Welsh Younique bot doubled down and posted pics of her team “challenge” where they all did the same culturally appropriating utter crap and then did Shocked Pikachu Face when she was once again called out for racism.

She’s now removed that post too.

dickiedavisthunderthighs · 08/02/2021 16:36

Nurse held a 'Deal or No Deal' event on her page last night. I'm presuming it was No Deal as the only person who commented was her depressed downline.

Spongebobette · 08/02/2021 17:01

Aaaaand today she’s saying Sundays are no social media days for her from now on
(No connection I’m sure)

CodenameVillanelle · 08/02/2021 18:39

@Spongebobette

Aaaaand today she’s saying Sundays are no social media days for her from now on (No connection I’m sure)
And she's going to have a slob around and watch Netflix day because she never does that

Pardon me is that meant to be true aspirational?

acatcalledjohn · 08/02/2021 18:58

Welsh Younique bot (can we call her ChineseGeisha Bot?) Is awful with her "say yes to affirm" bollocks to get attention.

Her minions are so brainwashed they shower her with adoration. I don't get why. She is rude ("back like a bad rash!"), awful at applying make-up and racist to boot. In essence: nothing worth affirming.

Not to mention a scamming twat. But that is par for the course for all the top bots.

SSDGM · 08/02/2021 19:18

ChineseGeishaBot has also said she is starting legal action against Laura Dos Santos and Ms Sponlie in exactly the same live she said that sales are as high as ever and she’s still making All The Money so I’m not sure exactly what she’s “suing” them for. She’s accused people of doxxing her except she posts her location and the inside/outside of her home constantly and has made the news a few times, not only for being convicted of selling fake designer bags she imported from Turkey, but also for exploiting her daughter in another incident that could be seen as casually racist.

She’s a grifter.
