I remember finding a discussion on MLMs on one of the forums on Martin Lewis’s website which was very interesting. An actress wrote that she was hired to attend a culty MLM rally where she was paid to pretend to be one of the top bots by walking across the stage to collect a giant cheque.

Amazing that Nurse is talking about a ‘day off’ nursing
She is being paid even though she’s not at work - this is what happens when you have a real job

Ms Sponlie latest video is quite the watch. It shows how low people will go to chase the pipe dream.
In essence a Job centre employee appears to try to recruite a UC applicant into Avon.

Also, top FL bot latest isntagram

Saying taht if your circle is not investing, growing or supporting you then you need a new 'circle'

The subtle excluding the haters through cute insta stories is really not very nice.

I have friends who spend every penny they have, never invest, do not give a monkies about my own business, but are some of the most caring and fun people I could wish for.

Ironcially, my circle of friends are pretty successful in their careers and own companies. Not once do we talk about success or work when we meet up.

When she said she wanted to be productive and had loads planned I assumed she meant her bizniss. But no, it's a supermarket run and hoovering. Law of attraction innit?
Spongebobette · 24/03/2021 11:20

Literally

Tangledtresses · 24/03/2021 11:55

Interesting read! I have recently had a few friends do this... and just completely ignored it....

But it's shocking that this goes on!!!!!

Spongebobette · 24/03/2021 13:27

Wow Uber is trying VERY hard on Insta

ArbunneHun · 24/03/2021 13:30

The FM huns need to be VERY careful with their MSE/Martin Lewis claims. He takes his reputation very seriously and will sue if anyone misrepresents his position - for example, claiming he endorses or promotes a brand, service or product that he doesn’t.

ArbunneHun · 24/03/2021 13:33

In other FM news, Sacked is ranting furiously about online bullying after someone sent her a screen shot of a post someone had made of some unflattering images of her, calling her names.

Obviously, I don’t think anyone should give their opinion on other people’s faces or bodies, but my god, Sacked bloody loves being in a furious state of outrage, and - let’s be honest - any claim of trolling or bullying is great for engagement.

Spongebobette · 24/03/2021 13:34

Some people thrive on being outraged. It fuels them

MLMsuperfan · 24/03/2021 16:06

I was following her message against personal comments, and then she said she had better tits than her main critic (5 minutes 20 seconds if you don't believe me).

MLMsuperfan · 24/03/2021 16:11

Oh and at 8 minutes 8 seconds Sacked says the critic "is lucky I didn't post shit through her letterbox".

Really feeling the anti-bullying vibe hun.

ArbunneHun · 24/03/2021 17:56

It all feeds into the convenient “jealous haterz” narrative. Anyone who criticises you is jealous of your success/your hard work/your brilliant MLM company/your freedom/your lifestyle and secretly wishes they could escape their boring job and be just like you!

Ladiva1971 · 24/03/2021 20:11

TBH Her lips do looks like a baboons butt!!

Ladiva1971 · 24/03/2021 20:15

and she is obviously affected about what was said, otherwise she would not feel compelled to make a 15 min video about it........

Bluewavescrashing · 24/03/2021 21:37

She does a weird thing with her mouth, just like Pauline from League of Gentlemen. I can't get past it.

That reminds me of the Y Foundation advertising for actresses to play CSA victims who had gone through or were going to go through one of their therapy programmes. They specified that the actresses needed to have tattoos and piercings etc because obviously all victims have a certain look Hmm
BSintolerant · 25/03/2021 07:18

How awful. Given the scarcity of acting jobs I imagine Younique would’ve received a lot of interest.

9dartfinish2nd · 25/03/2021 09:57

MLM huns venting about "haters" is a sure fire way to increase engagement and only fuels the siege mentality felt by others below her who are also fully botted up.

Malin52 · 25/03/2021 10:07

Nurse showing she clearly has a high level of gullibility after sharing what was clearly a scam/data harvesting opportunity on FB. One of her friends pointed out it was too good to be true, facts that showed it must be a scam and she reacted as if she had made a personal slight.
One would think she had experience convincing herself and her friends that certain things aren't scams...

9dartfinish2nd · 25/03/2021 10:28

@Dizzy6700

She had a meteroric rise and became the first UK bot to achieve the title of "Team Elite", I don't know exactly how it fell it apart at Nu Skin but I did hear allegations that she had differing views and ideas about how to do things which didn't sit well the existing UK hierarchy at Nu Skin. She was effectively ostracized by her own people which lead to her doing a very emotional live video announcing she was leaving, She alleged that her own upline hadn't spoken to her for almost a year by that point and also a senior figure in the company did a live video on Social Media to specifically tear her down. She actually created a blog detailing her network marketing career and covers some of these incidents. In my opinion the problem is that she did make some good money initially and once you have had a taste of that lifestyle it's hard to walk away from. It's already evident that her involvement in MLM has taken a toll on her emotionally and I genuinely hope that her and her partner can finally escape this industry once and for all.

Garliccoriander · 25/03/2021 10:32

Remember the vitriol from Uber when it was suggested she pay for her son’s trip (dodged a bullet with COVID-19 there ).
I wonder if any bots will try to travel as since with their six figure earnings the fine is loose change.

fromdownwest · 25/03/2021 11:23

How is caslte allowed to post a picture of a tablet that

  • Helps with blood sugar levels
  • Stops cravings
  • Blocks carbs
  • Blocks Fat

Just outright mis information, no table can 'Block' Carbs

I can understand why they didn't like her approach; as she does genuinely seem kind. But yes, she is blinded by her early success and I don't think she could fathom working a real job, so she is clutching onto hope! She dragged her younger sister into this latest one, but she doesn't promote it much herself. I think, deep down, she knows it's the same old scammy scam.

Her partner has also been around the block with numerous schemes including the forex/mining ones yuk! But he seems settled in a good job now.

And this life coaching that she is taking from an ex hunbot who used to be in her downline; is abuse. This gangster coach scoops up failing huns and boomerangs them back into the pyramid schemes that destroyed them in the 1st place. Creating a cycle of never-ending customers for her confidence biz.

I've never seen a post of her out with a friend, or a birthday wish tagged on her profile from friends, no payday cocktails with colleagues, or play dates with pals, nor any sign of a friendship at all. She has clearly destroyed every friendship by trying to monetise her relationships in those early days.

I would love to one day, see her thrive outside of the MLM world.

@CurlsandCurves

All the FM huns are screaming from the rooftops that Martin Lewis has ‘endorsed’ their products on his show.

I’ve seen ‘Well if Martin Lewis said so, he’s the man!’ ‘Martin Lewis approved, these are not copies or fake!’

Honestly Martin, dig a little deeper please.

Can someone give me a clue or a name here? I know someone who is a personal friend of ML and could pass this on.
