Yes it’s the 71st thread focused on exposing the lies of MLMs and the deceptions practiced by so/called ‘leaders’ who recruit recruit recruit!
You will only lose money if you join their ‘team’ - don’t do it!

Just wondering those that do a school run are you aware of any local MLM bots that you give a wide berth to? We will see the fb teachers gifts 🎁 soon.

Broke not posted that he’s out of hospital having his new tatt. Must’ve been kept in or re-arrested.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 28/05/2022 20:58

There's a feel of him swimming on Insta- filmed a couple of days ago, but posted today.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 28/05/2022 21:28

Reel, not feel!

I’m an avid reader of these threads, but don’t often post. However, have seen that ‘publisher’ was scammed yesterday - the irony!
It was a fake Royal Mail text, and she handed over all of her details - including her card details - despite their being very clear grammatical errors on the webpage she has screenshot. Great proofreading skills for an editor.

Will now go back to just reading. This is one of my favourite threads on Mumsnet Smile

Seeing Salon mentioned on here again recently I just looked her up on Facebook and love that when you type in her name the next suggestion is:

<Salon's real name> scam

BSintolerant · 30/05/2022 22:12

Welcome back @countdowntonap Scammers being scammed seems to be an emerging theme at the moment. I do like a bit of poetic justice: it makes me warm inside. 😈

Anyone follow John Lewis bot? I see on companies house her company is in liquidation. If this was forced on her then she can’t promote or be part of anything to do with that company for 5 years. She has gone v quiet on socials but assumed that’s because she just had a baby but now wondering if it’s because of this as the baby must be about 6 months now and she hasn’t done any promotion of the new 4 day cleanse thing.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 31/05/2022 10:45

JL Bot is also known a Tax Bill/Insolvency Bot because her company went into compulsory liquidation, owing HMRC a large sum of money (can't be arsed to look it up, but £100k would be a ballpark figure).
She has reneged on the various deals she has entered into to pay this back by instalments, including one to hand over last year's CB cheque (roughly $10k, I seem to remember).
None of this stopped her botting activities, except she presumably switched to operating as a sole trader. FL continued to use her as a star speaker on what success looks like, knowing full well that the blinkered adoring downlines would lap it up, due diligence not exactly being their forte.
Since she is now operating as herself rather than the old company, there presumably isn't anything stopping her from promoting FLP, as they are not technically anything to do with her former limited company.

fromdownwest · 31/05/2022 11:17

The only difference now, if she doesn’t pay her tax liability, then she has no Ltd shell to fold with the liability. It is on her, and every one of her assets is fair game.

fitgirl26 · 31/05/2022 12:44

Been down a rabbit hole of "I'll PM you hun" comments on Salon's No 1 Minion's post about her new forever home and I think it's Modere.

YouOKHun · 31/05/2022 12:58

@fitgirl26 yes agree. I looked a few days ago and decided Modere seemed to fit the bill. If so I wonder if she will have the same US upline as Homeschool did.

I have a comment (stored in my evidence file!) by a Modere Hun quoting Modere’s vegan overlord who has told them that the choc chicken cartilage shake isn’t “totally” vegan but as no chickens were harmed in its making it is really pretty much vegan and she uses it so it’s OK for vegans!

It’s a horrible company with a crooked history (and a criminal history in its former guise as Neways), it’s the perfect fit for Salon 😒

Sounds right up Salon's street!

Hhoney · 31/05/2022 15:38

My very close friend is a mlm bot. She regularly posts photographs of her standing with gigantic oversized cheques. This is how much her ‘company’ pay her and she is implying that this is her salary. What she doesn’t post (in fact, she doesn’t seem to realise) is that although she has earned £4000 that month in ‘income’ that doesn’t take into account the £3200 she paid the company for products and training and that, therefore, only £800 is profit.

fromdownwest · 31/05/2022 16:26

Castle having Salmon for dinner - even by her own quitting standards 2 days for a fad is a record! 😂

gottaloveascamhun · 31/05/2022 17:14

Omg @fromdownwest 😆

FeeBeeBooh · 31/05/2022 18:36

I'm banned by Yawn, what did they quit from this time?

fromdownwest · 31/05/2022 18:54

FeeBeeBooh · 31/05/2022 18:36

Castle was in awe of her new business partners vegan lifestyle, how it’s healthier, free from allergen, toxins and hormones.

2 days later a high mercury count fish for dinner! 😂

Ohnonevermind · 31/05/2022 19:45

Mr castle just doesn’t strike me as the vegan type.

ArbunneHun · 31/05/2022 20:53

Salon LOVES an autoship based MLM pyramid: all about recruiting, no retail. Those in early make plenty of money, those who get recruited down the line religiously pay for their autoship providing a regular flow of money to the top.

It’s a ponzi with chicken cartilage drinks.

YouOKHun · 31/05/2022 21:30

I see Yawn has put herself in a straight jacket (not before time).

Yes @ArbunneHun doesn’t Salon love an autoship! Or as she says in various comments on Trustpilot when she was refuting accusations of Nutonic being a scam, “it’s a drop-shipping company not a pyramid scheme”. I think Mr Salon waded in to defend it as good clean drop shipping.

PieonaBarm · 31/05/2022 22:22

Castle now posting vague "be careful who you trust" slides on Insta.

NormalForNuneaton · 31/05/2022 23:03

I'm intrigued by Yawn's photos and the filter she's using. She looks like a different person to the one on photos taken by other people , eg the recent ones on stage in the tent.

She's got another presenting slot coming up which must be motivation to continue with the mightly unhealthy starvation diet.

I'd love to see her in the flesh again to see how obvious her weightloss looks in real life without the filters. I do see her around occasionally so I'll report back 😊

BSintolerant · 31/05/2022 23:18

Does Yawn go about her business with Mr Yawn in hot pursuit with his ladder and the camera which never tells the truth?

BSintolerant · 31/05/2022 23:39

You’re so naughty@YouOKHun 😆😆Say the following sentence in your best M&S advert voice:

“It’s not a straitjacket: it’s a Temperley London investment piece.”

Call it what you like; we can rest assured that all is safely gathered in apart from her ego.

Yawn’s definitely the Hyacinth Bucket of the MLM world. If she got rid of some of her crap she might have room for a pony. 😉
