Botwatch 90!!!! MLM is dying but we are still watching and sadly there are still many victims. 99.6% of participants in these “legal” schemes lose money but they are STILL being promised the world by MLM. And ‘coaching’ scams are just as bad!

What is that saccharine candy glitter photo on Yawns stories? My eyes are burning. She’s on her way to her 50’s FFS

Spongebobette · 18/12/2025 22:44

Oh god that’s awful

Is it AI? I seriously hope she didn’t waste her time having that photo done. Talking of photos, what’s happened to her BFF coach? Has the coach rung out of Yawn all she can and has now moved on?

dickiedavisthunderthighs · 19/12/2025 00:09

BFF coach seems to be doing as well as Yawn. Latest pivot is that how she’s a trained dancer, she can teach confidence and how to project oneself. To crickets. Her twin on the other hand, who had the big employment tribunal which painted both of them in a terrible light, might actually be having a modicum of success.

Good Lord, maybe she has teamed up with "Weird Willy Wonka" and glittered his basil? It's the most extraordinary thing I've seen in a long time.

AbbeyGrange · 19/12/2025 18:45

Yawn trying to downplay Christmas....hmm wonder why? Maybe because they're skint?

YouOKHun · 19/12/2025 19:14

What have the pair of them been up to? Techie now appears on Yawn’s insta stories wrapped in feathers with a pair of legs borrowed from AI. I can’t decide what the style is. It’s a little bit “Festive Readers’ Wives” or perhaps out of the dressing up box belonging to the late Dame E Everidge. What it isn’t, is a professional look. It’s a good job no one is really looking at Build a Despair’s social media. Ridiculous.

“ … glittered his basil” 😆🤣 Is that a euphemism?

YouOKHun · 19/12/2025 20:27

@PieonaBarmApparently this is a trend among the bots, according to the lady pictured in this photo (who isn’t anyone known to any of us).

@HotAsSatansBalls please don’t plant horrifying images of Weird Willy sans dungarees with his glasses steamed up.

HotAsSatansBalls · 19/12/2025 20:51

What a time to have an imagination @YouOKHun ! Could be worse I suppose. At least Yawn hasn’t vajazzled her thatch.

YouOKHun · 19/12/2025 21:04

That would be toxic to all the rodents living in there @HotAsSatansBalls. When she eventually sets fire to her thatch and her pants are fully on fire she will regret the application of flammable plastic gems. Especially as the thatch sits on top of her French Chic. No one would wish blistering to someone’s French Chic.

HotAsSatansBalls · 19/12/2025 21:16

🤣 🔥 I forgot about her French Chic! What nationality is the other one?

YouOKHun · 19/12/2025 22:30

I think some anatomical confusion has set in. I was referring to her thatched porch. Are you talking about her back door @HotAsSatansBalls? You know the one, with the instagram worthy views out of it of some distant National Trust parkland, when we were absolutely certain her back entrance opened onto the back wall of next door’s bungalow.

HotAsSatansBalls · 19/12/2025 23:03

🤣 After years of observing bots I’m not sure which way’s up. I suppose it doesn’t really matter because the thatched porch and back entrance are all downstairs. I pity the owner of the bungalow.

user1471446301 · 20/12/2025 18:33

Uber has jumped on the Wonka Candy (photo) Shop glitter vibes, this will either anger or please Yawn who did it first. I'm not clever enough but would love to include one of the Maughan bothers as Augustus Gloop (gloop get it) and Scamodopuls and the Borings as Oompa-Loompas, and Yawn as Veruca Salt (in airport mode!).

The sycophantic comments are hilarious and sadly show the calibre of the downline when they think this is a "stunning" real photograph.

OhMyGiddyAunt · 21/12/2025 13:17

Looks like Mr Yawn's Xmas works-do for his secret job was in Liverpool.

Yawn of course is using it as a romantic weekend getaway, time with invisible new friends photo opportunity.

Spongebobette · 21/12/2025 17:06

Where are all these new friends in the photos???

OP posts:
YouOKHun · 21/12/2025 17:42

@Spongebobettejust outside the frame of the photos, but they ARE there. They are just as real as her customers who constantly text her to say how marvellous she is.

@OhMyGiddyAunt I think you’re absolutely right about the reason for being in Liverpool. How else can you signify your entrepreneurial success to your audience if someone else isn’t providing rare opportunities for showing off (even if it’s lacklustre) thanks to their J.O.B?

Crikeyalmighty · 21/12/2025 18:17

@YouOKHun I thought she had signed off from promoting herself a few days ago as she’s so successful ? I certainly have

notgettinganyyounger · 21/12/2025 19:33

There doesn't even seem to be anyone else at the big Liverpool night out. Empty room. New 'imaginary ' friends more like.

Someone did ask on the post earlier if the trip was Mr Yawn's work Xmas do but I see that comment has mysteriously disappeared now...🤔

YouOKHun · 21/12/2025 21:03

@DeliaDeetz Now, why would you need to delete that comment 🤔…. It was a reference to Mr Y’s new car being a company car that got me deleted (and not just my comment either). I commented on her post showing off about the new electric car, implying she had treated him or it was an off the cuff purchase for fun. I deliberately made my comment really bot-friendly (positive and arse-licking) but the reference to it being a company car meant it was leapt upon and I was blocked.

There is real sensitivity about the fact he is working in a J.O.B. I suppose, if people pick up on it, they will put two and two together and certainly won’t arrive at a six figure income. It’s not as if we are publishing his national insurance number or his employer’s name and address so she can’t claim it’s about privacy (not that privacy is a familiar concept to her). If it’s clear he’s working his socks off (and I expect he is) it’s going to very clear that she is spending her time prepping for a series of lives filmed at the same time and a series of photos for uploading as and when, before popping her trackies on for an afternoon in front of Homes Under the Hammer (terrifying title if you’ve got a dodgy roof). Just like the FLP days, everything is misleading and she has to take every opportunity to sell the Success Mirage.

SnoogyWoo · 21/12/2025 23:06

This made me laugh... yesterday Yawn put a screenshot on her socials of an order for BuildHerDespair. I thought the order number looked odd so I uploaded it to Gemini and asked what it thought....

You are spot on—that order number, #BHB000, is definitely irregular for a live transaction.
Here is what is almost certainly happening in this image:

  1. It is likely a "Test" Order
In most e-commerce systems (like WooCommerce or Shopify), order numbers are sequential (e.g., #1001, #1002). An order ending in strictly zeros like 000 usually indicates: A Developer Test: The system administrator or web developer ran a transaction to ensure the payment gateway and email notifications were working before the site went live. A Manual Reset: The store owner may have reset the counter to start fresh, and this was the "zero" entry.
  1. It is a Marketing Mockup (Canva Template)
The composition of the image gives this away. The screenshot of the email has been superimposed with a "cutout" of the woman in the red blazer pointing upwards. This suggests the image was created as a promotional asset for social media (e.g., an Instagram Story) to announce that the "Inner Circle" membership is open. They likely used a dummy receipt or a screenshot of their own initial test order so they wouldn't have to redact real customer information (GDPR compliance).

Verdict: It is almost certainly a staged screenshot or a system test used for marketing purposes, rather than a genuine customer receipt.

Brilliant detective work!
