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!

Fuck You IBO!
14 comments:
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.
totally awsome blog entry!
ReplyDeletei love your blog!
please keep it up
Hi Anonymous. Glad you're loving the blog!
DeleteAnna, what a list! And taken together, all the items on it constitute a devastating critique of Amway -- its lying, its pettiness, its greed, its fakery, its nastiness, its tyranny. I wonder if those two shills, IBOFightback and Bridgett, are willing to address anything on it, or if they will continue to sing the praises of the Amway scam.
ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous. Yeah its a good accurate list of the many ways you'd want to tell an Amway IBO to fuck off. Those fucking shills aren't reading this blog. Think about it. If you love Amway more than life itself you're not reading a blog like this unless you land on here by mistake but you don't come back to keep reading it. Do you regularly read blogs that piss you off because its the opposite of how you feel? Unlikely. Only someone that is really fucked in the head would do something like that. But then there's the argument that they are seriously fucked in the head! LOL!
DeleteWhat is DITTO?
ReplyDeleteI thought that was a pokemon.
On another note I am reading merchants of deception and it is scary how similar some of things that happen in Amway happen at other MLM meetings I have been introduced to by friends.
Also side note: A friend of mine deactivated his ACN account at TC level and realised the information via Facebook video, almost like a press conference. He also joined a new MLM scheme the next day. Interesting that he was only allowed to own one business since you would think that he would want to diversify his income streams.
Hi Mathew - DITTO had something to do with a monthly standing Amway order. You know automatically ordering overpriced shitty Amway products each month so you didn't have to go in and change your order unless it was to add more shit.
DeleteThat book is scary! This is real life stuff not a fiction horror novel.
That does seem a little weird. We knew some Ambots who were involved in other MLM scams at the same time they were doing Amway.
Your blog is awesome !!! All points valid & I hope most of Indian do understand this nd get away from this MLM. Yesterday , in Delhi I got chance (forced to go there due to some relative pressure ) to see Sugeet Ajmani (the American guy) who sell a lot of American stories. Same old BWW marketing lectures , but I am summarizing 1 BAD & 1 GOOD point I observed in his 'motivational' speech :-
ReplyDelete1) BAD
i) He told same old data segmentation of ppl :-
A) 10 % ; who join easliy
B) 80% who skeptical but good ppl nd always target these
C) 10 % run away form these they will never fall in Amway
then later he open said 'C' type of ppl are your 'Cousins' , 'Relatives' & told to leave them. OMG hey man who are you tell ppl to leave relatives. Think Twice before your 'ruin family' & values.
2) GOOD
Total ppl in Delhi almost 10,000 ... yes full stadium.
he asked audience how many listening me 1st time : 95% raised hand
then asked how many listening 2nd time : remaining 5%
he shocked nd worried ...means so many 'old friends' missing ...
I am saying it Good , because in India getting more & more aware they do not to need waste money on these 'costly' product nd dreams of ' Hawaai' & Peter Island free tour ...
be happy
--love from Delhi, India
Hello Anonymous from Delhi India! Thanks for stopping by! And thanks for your perspective on how the Amway scam is operating in another country. Amway is all about preying on the disadvantaged an its always sad to see the people who can least afford to get scammed losing so much money buying products that cost too much and they probably don't need in the first place. Hopefully Amway will continue to lose commissioned salespeople in your country - and everywhere else in the world they've infected too!
DeleteTo Tearsfromanambot. Hi there. You printed your email address & we decided its a bad idea to publish your comment because ANGRY ambots show up here and you don't need emails from those fucktards accusing you of being a negative unchristian unsupportive wife and all the other canned Amspeak bullshit we've all had to put up with.
ReplyDeleteFirst off welcome to the blog and glad to hear its helping you. And yes this blog is pretty much at the top of the search engines for anything Amway because we've mocked just about everything Amway at least once and usually many times.
If you have something that we might be able to help you with you can leave a comment and just ask not to publish it if you're more comfortable and I'll give you an answer if I can. We rarely email people directly because the few times either myself or one of the other bananas has done so, we take the time and don't even get so much as a thank you or any other response. I used to have my email on this blog but after I got a lovesick follower I removed it. And two of the bananas on this blog have had problems with a cyberstalker so for our own safety we respond in comments instead of an email.
Why don't you check out some of the links on the right side of the page under more information about Amway. For sure download the free ebook called Merchants of Deception. Look at those creepy Dateline videos of the Amway cult worshippers and the pyramid scheme alert also should have some help for you. And you can always leave comments that you ask not to be published and I'll respond in a comment. Good luck!
Dear Anna --
ReplyDeleteIt's funny how Amway tells its IBOs and other Ambots not to read any anti-Amway stuff. But from your answer to the poor woman mentioned above, it's clear that these Amtards are coming to this site read your blog anyway. I wonder why that is.
Could it be because deep down they too are aware of what a damned fraud and ripoff Amway is? And since they can't or won't say anything about their real feelings in their cultish meetings, they have to come here secretly to read the truth?
Hi Anonymous. Its my guess Amtards end up at this blog because its so high in the search engines. They can't tell the difference between the truth and what ambots perceive as "negative" in other words anyone who has an opposing point of view to the Amway cult leader. Ambots simply can't grasp the truth so they retaliate by screeching the truth is negative. Never in my life have I encountered people so obsessed with negative as Amway ambots. And because we talk about our true stories of emotional and financial distress thanks to Amway the ambots who land on this site screech about we're negative and whatever other bullshit Amspeak propaganda they have a need to spout off like we've never heard it before. The life of a brainwashed Amway Ambot is to spend all their time looking for "negative" and then lie, deny, distract and defend. And then hopefully disappear. That
DeleteOops I hit enter too soon. I was going to add
DeleteThat is when the Ambot isn't worshipping and tithing the Great Amway God!
To anonymous from India: I was personally introduced to that Sugeet Ajmani here in New Jersey, USA. The IBO who brought me into the "business" thought I would be really impressed with meeting him face to face. It was the exact opposite - I realized immediately that he was a phony and I walked away realizing that I wanted nothing to do with him or the "business" that he is a part of.
ReplyDeleteI think the worst part was when he had all these IBOs go outside to look at his fancy Maserati, as if none of them had ever seen a nice car before. If Sugeet Ajmani told those IBOs that he shits diamonds, they'd believe him or at least act like they do. Sad.
Anyway well done, anonymous in India - you got out of that mess.
Hi Anonymous. People in Amway are the biggest phonies around. Part of that comes from love bombing and being over the top attentive and complimentary. Overall as soon as ambot opens their mouth you can tell they're a lying scamming son of a bitch. Join the Amway cult and live in a pretend phony world.
