MLM Bot Watch 73 A thread about desperate bots desperately botting

1000 replies

Saw previous thread was full, so started this one Grin! Thread 73, who would have thought Shock. So much has changed over the years of these MLM threads but it is interesting that some stalwarts are still going, many thousands of victims in their wakes.

The MLM industry is counting the cost of a more awakened population who can now see through this scam industry, although there are still the serial bots who believe they fail because they 'didn't try hard enough' rather than understanding that the business model set them up to fail, and join countless MLMs in a desperate attempt to find success Sad.

Yes, as described in posts above (or below, whichever way you choose to read this thread), this has all the makings of a rushed moonlight flit...

So the memorial tomorrow for castle’s sister. If we don’t see her sister’s husband and kids there we know there has been a massive fall out as the whole thing is being hosted by their grandma.

fromdownwest · 21/09/2022 20:52

The whole thing stinks, no way you make this life changing decision, unless being forced to do so.
HMRC would be my bet, obviously m, just speculation.

YouOKHun · 21/09/2022 21:10

Indeed it does @Twentytwentyhindsight. I hope she’s noted that she still has to pay tax on any rental income and non-resident capital gains if she sells the house. She certainly running away from something [straight into a Fierce shaped ambush].

YouOKHun · 21/09/2022 23:30

@Beetlekiwi 😂 Sleaze - this international jet-setting entrepreneur and Leader of People walked into a glass door he didn’t see and now he’s ballsed up his photo opportunities in Dubai because he looks like he’s been given a slap and kicked out of Wetherspoons on a Friday night.

Still, it’s a small scale disaster compared to the dodgy Crypto and health MLM characters he’s got himself tied up with. He’s so easily dazzled by the offer of a night in one of Dubai’s lesser hotels and a chance to get involved in the latest project of a highly suspect individual who is lining him up to carry the can when it goes tits up.

I swear Wig’s hair is getting bigger and bigger. Or has she shrunk?

YouOKHun · 22/09/2022 09:21

I see Fierce has travelled to the US, something to do with a certain TV company. Does that mean all the people complaining loudly on Scampulse that they’ve been ripped off are finally getting something [probably pisspoor] for their ££?

Clearly Scamversity isn’t causing too much of a diversion and only needs some attention next week when the next crop of £39s are due to land. I’m sure Fierce can see she needs a Scamfolio and shouldn't put all her eggs in one basket like Castle.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 22/09/2022 09:38

Yes @YouOKHun - it would seem that the academic leadership of the august institution have opted for the approach of having a very light hand on the tiller in this first month of operations.
What with Fierce busily working her other cons income streams and Castle desperately organising her escape move to Spain, I expect the current cohort are being fed a diet of regurgitated recorded shite that the emeritus professors will have dispensed in their previous ventures, and which the audience will already be familiar with.
I imagine that even the most ardent fans of C&F will be questioning the value of paying next month's tuition fees.
Looks like the shit is going to hit the fan very quickly.

@YouOKHun Perhaps her skull has shrunk - just like Yawn’s! 😉

SnoogyWoo · 22/09/2022 11:31

Maybe she is aiming to be a Big Wig.

fromdownwest · 22/09/2022 11:57

When I started my business, I ate, drank and slept it for 3 years. Working weekends, evenings and massive time sacrifices.

The prospect of a house move, yet alone a country move would not have entered my mind.

Those poor sods will get zero content, and it will only get worse. I see castle moving to spain, and then looking to buy a restaurant or something similar, again not understanding the work involved.

I do wonder what she is running from.

BSintolerant · 22/09/2022 15:21

I think she’s running from herself. There’ll be a reckoning yet.

Norma27 · 22/09/2022 15:38

I see yawn and ex bff were at ‘head office’ today. I wonder how that went!

Ohnonevermind · 22/09/2022 15:56

I hope she doesn’t try to turn the memorial into her leaving party

YouOKHun · 22/09/2022 16:58

Mmm, I wouldn’t want to invalidate her sadness at losing her sister because it’s a terrible thing to happen but I do think she is using grief as a tool for engagement, to excuse commercial failure, lack of application and as a shield from criticism; ‘hashtag be kind’ style. She wheels it out when things are quiet on SM or when she senses the “trolls” are on to her with their questions and valid criticisms. As already discussed here, I expect her Sis’s family find this hard. The memorial will be an engagement opportunity too hard to resist in these bleak times.

I’m keeping an eye on AirBnB, she will be in direct competition with her former temporary “success” backdrop/home which is also listed.

StuckInSand · 22/09/2022 18:06

Yawn definitely doesn't have a slimmer skull(!) in the side profile photo Uber has posted on FB from the head office day. I don't think she's going to be too pleased with that angle. Not denying she's lost some weight, but what a difference from her elongated mirror selfies

Spongebobette · 22/09/2022 19:55

Oh ha ha they are in the tent again and being photographed on the front doorstep

the building isn’t used any more for meetings and training is it

YouOKHun · 22/09/2022 20:22

@Spongebobette and what a rogues gallery that doorstep photo is. All of them on the bones of their arses. I cannot believe my little friend (far right) is there, presumably being held up as a success. Her latest accounts are in and show a continued downward decline that has necessitated a Ltd company name change to muddy the waters no doubt. Yawn looks very different to her normal airbrushed/edited version. She will be very unhappy about Uber’s photo 😱😂

YouOKHun · 22/09/2022 20:28

And, yes, the tent! It’s one thing having a Victims’ BBQ on a summer’s day but a ‘leaders meeting’ on a warm-ish early autumn day - why would you have that in a tent when you’ve got that HQ available? I wonder who they’ve had to let the space to? And insolvency practice or a firm of bailiffs perhaps?

I know and her latest photo her fingers are so long it's ridiculous! Why does she photoshop herself to oblivion?

NormalForNuneaton · 22/09/2022 20:55

OMG yes !!! The fingers ....hahaha 😂

Tupperwarelid · 22/09/2022 20:57

None of them around that table look thrilled to be there!

Spongebobette · 22/09/2022 21:01

I keep seeing ‘£300 extra a month’ so that must be the strategy they came up with

Twentytwentyhindsight · 22/09/2022 21:02

Tupperwarelid · 22/09/2022 20:57

Probably all trying to work out how many extra CCs they'll have to make next month to cover their travel costs to be there.

SnoogyWoo · 22/09/2022 22:13

Would love to be a fly on the wall in that meeting. Yes the £300 is the new lure, it’s an amount most of us are down each month with the cost of living.

Yawn made me laugh today saying it doesn’t matter how wealthy you are you would always be happy to get an extra £1200 a month lol. No Yawn, if you are wealthy you would not go round trying to flog Aloe for a few quid!

LeoDiCapricorn · 22/09/2022 22:52

Is yawns fella the only bloke there? Did he get time away from his whispers job?
