My story of what its like to be married to an Amway cult follower. I expose the lies that our upline told and what happens at Amway meetings and functions. I leave the explanations of why Amway is a poor business opportunity or the tool scam to other bloggers. This blog mainly exists to curse out my former upline, aka the cult leaders, and to let everyone know what kind of idiots I had to put up with. Feel free to join in or live vicariously!

Worst Amway Distributor

Comments are moderated but we publish just about everything. Even brainwashed ambots who show up here to accuse us of not trying hard enough and that we are lazy, quitters, negative, unchristian dreamstealers. Like we haven’t heard that Amspeak abuse from the assholes in our upline!
If your comment didn’t get published it could be one of these reasons:
1. Is it the weekend? We don’t moderate comments on weekends. Maybe not every day during the week either. Patience.
2. Racist/bigoted comments? Take that shit somewhere else.
3. Naming names? Public figures like politicians and actors and people known in Amway are probably OK – the owners, Diamonds with CDs or who speak at functions, people in Amway’s publicity department who write press releases and blogs. Its humiliating for people to admit their association with Amway so respect their privacy if they’re not out there telling everyone about the love of their life.
4. Gossip that serves no purpose. There are other places to dish about what Diamonds are having affairs or guessing why they’re getting divorced. If you absolutely must share that here – don’t name names. I get too many nosy ambots searching for this. Lets not help them find this shit.
5. Posting something creepy anonymously and we can’t track your location because you’re on a mobile device or using hide my ass or some other proxy. I attracted an obsessed fan and one of my blog administrators attracted a cyberstalker. Lets keep it safe for everyone. Anonymous is OK. Creepy anonymous and hiding – go fuck yourselves!
6. Posting something that serves no purpose other than to cause fighting.
7. Posting bullshit Amway propaganda. We might publish that comment to make fun of you. Otherwise take your agenda somewhere else. Not interested.
8. Notice how this blog is written in English? That's our language so keep your comments in English too. If you leave a comment written in another language then we either have to use Google translate to put it into English so everyone can understand what you wrote or we can hit the Delete button. Guess which one is easier for us to do?
9. We suspect you're a troublemaking Amway asshole.
10. Your comment got caught in the spam filter. Gets checked occasionally. We’ll get to you eventually and approve it as long as it really isn’t spam.
IBOfightback comes to mind.
ReplyDeleteAnyone know why Homeland Security is investigating Amway for credit card fraud? I couldn't help them.
DeleteAnna;
ReplyDeleteI realize this is not the appropriate place for this post but I just read on pinktruth.com that Mary Kay Cosmetics has just announced they are shutting down all operations in India effectively immediately and permanently.
It also went on to say India was disallowing ALL mlms in the country. Does Amway have a big presence there? If India has made this move, I wonder if other countries will eventually follow suit?
Thoughts?
Hi Anonymous. I don't know anything about Mary Kay and their Indian operations. You might try this blog www.corporatefraudswatch.blogspot.com
DeleteThe blogger deals with MLM scams and the ones in India that the police are chasing after.
My mom is an ABO since 15 years now. Not even crossed silver and all the people from our locality almost hate our family. India has a very high gossip rate and the word around gets spread very fast.
ReplyDeleteMy dad is retired and most of the money he put is irrecoverable. My mom has a stack of nutrilite just because her upline asks her to buy for points. My mom doesn't quit, nor is she making money and she is losing her health and social acceptance. It has made her fake Positivity take an effect on her mental health. Dad is helpless and so am I. Our relationship is affected too as she has invested way too much amount of time and money for her to accept that she followed a meaningless cult. I am worried for her.
Hello Fromindia. Thanks for stopping by to share your story. I'm sorry to hear about your mother. Sadly you have the same story as many other Amkids who show up here. Everybody else hates your family because someone is in Amway. You can't go to other kids parties because there's no money to buy presents or because your parents were counselled by upline to use that money instead to buy more Amway shit.
DeleteIf your dad is enabling your mom by providing money so your mom can keep throwing it away in the Amway scam he's going to lose his life savings and they'll suffer in retirement.
This is sickening cult behavior. Nothing brings people in Amway more happiness that destroying other people's lives. There's nothing you can do for your mother after all these years she's a lifer. She can't quit now, because success is right around the corner. In her mind.
All you can do is break free, create a better life for yourself, and not enable her with her Amway pipe dreams. Good luck to you.
Dear Anna --
DeleteWhat I find really frightening in the report from the Indian lady is the fact that a mature adult (her mother) can be so blind about the utter fraudulence and financial disaster of Amway, even after 15 years! The mother is not making any money, she's losing her friends, her family is in despair, and her social network is collapsing. But she STILL KEEPS THE FAITH!
There's a difference between honest persistence and enslavement to a fake idea.
We've heard this story so many times, from so many different people, and from all over the world. We can only draw one conclusion. Amway is a cult, but it is also an addiction, as dangerously powerful as crack cocaine or heroin. For some persons, when they are hooked, they are perpetually enslaved to the Amway idea, even when it destroys their lives.
Amway needs to be destroyed. No ifs, ands, or buts.
Anonymous - this just goes to show you what brainwashing does to a person. The Amway cult has her bamboozled with promises of riches while they've been robbing her for 15 years.
DeleteAmway brings financial and emotional distress to their cult followers. Everyone has very similar stories but the brainwashed Ambots refuse to believe anyone outside the Amway cult.
