Searchers Who End Up At Married To An Ambot

We get a lot of interesting and not so interesting Google searches that end up at Married to an Ambot blog. Some searchers are looking for something completely unrelated to Amway and they usually leave as soon as they’ve realized their mistake. A few horrified IBO’s end up here too. Most leave but a few stick around long enough to leave a canned Amway speak comment about how we didn’t try hard enough.

We get some searches where you have to ask yourself: why the fuck is someone searching for that? Talk about brainwashed!

And we get people who are so  pissed off at Amway, end up at this blog, and literally spend hours and days reading every single post.

What I love is this blog is high on the search engines for IBO’s who are seeking information about Family Reunion, Free Enterprise Days FED, Spring Leadership and Dream Night. Nothing like screwing up Amway and WWDB! Of course right now its Spring Leadership 2026 that’s coming up and anxious IBO’s are seeking information. Instead everything high on the search are blogs similar to this that tell what really happens at these Amway functions. We’re higher than the web pages of Amway and WWDB propaganda. What does that tell you? Us bloggers are gaining the edge getting the truth out there and getting more page views than the corporation! Yay us!

We get a huge amount of searches looking for “ArtistryCosmetics” Usually right up there on the first page behind the Amway propaganda on Google. Doesn’t seem to bother Amway too much that we’re diverting their traffic otherwise they’d have offered to buy out the blog.

A searcher typed in “Fuck Brad Wolgamott”. Hmm. I’m pretty sure I’ve never written that phrase! They ended up at the IBO’sare Free Labor post. Someone may have typed Brad’s name in the comments and of course the posts are full of fuck this and fuck that so its logical to get a hit with that search criteria. I’m pretty sure I might have heard Brad Wolgamott speak at an Amway function though nothing about him stands out. Unmemorable experience for me and I have nothing to say about him. But I’m willing to help out that searcher and send out a big fuck you his way.

We get a lot of search hits for “Amway horror stories” or “Amway cult” or “cult horror stories”.

There’s a lot of people out there who don’t realize that Amway is a cult. I wouldn’t have thought so either until Ambot’s involvement and the brainwashing by his "Christian" Platinum cult leader.

We get searchers for creepy employees ending up at the Amwayis Creepy post. Oddly enough we’re right below the hit for David Letterman is creepy for having sex with female employees! (Or at least we were the first time this blog post ran!)

There are a lot of searches for “quit Amway” or similar searches like how to get friend or husband to quit Amway. What about “big losses in Amway”? There are lots of searchers finding their way to this blog with that one too. “Annoying Amway IBO’s” in the search criteria find their way to the Married To An Ambot blog too!

Does Amway head office care that people are actually typing this stuff into search engines and coming to the Married To An Ambot blog? Do they not care that people think Amway IBO’s are annoying? Nope, not a chance. Amway head office = apathy central. The I-Don’t-Give-A-Shit crew.

Sometimes we get people looking for an Amway IBO. Poor bastards must want to buy some overpriced Amway shit! Boy did they come to the wrong place!

What’s even more bizarre is the search hits for IBO’s looking for basic business information that their upline should but does not provide them with like “help with selling Amway products” or “how to hold an Amway Grand Opening”. Yup they get directed to the post about ourGrand Opening and figure out real fast that no matter how much planning goes into it and how many people are invited, it’ll be a bust. I’m glad I’m getting that information out there. Don’t waste your time or money on an Amway Grand Opening!

We get a few searchers each week looking for “how to say fuck in igbo”? They all end up at the Fuck YouIBO post.

Am I the only person wondering what is igbo?

Google search! Ta da! Its a native tribe language in Nigeria.

Married To An Ambot is a top hit for someone looking for the Igbo translation for fuck. We’re even higher on the search engine that the person who has this post: “Help! Why are my Igbo men rubbish in bed?”

Sorry I can’t help her with that one! Ha ha but I love it!

What’s really sad are the ambots who search for “World Wide Dream Builders is awesome”. Talk about brainwashed! I mean who is so infatuated with the scam that they type that into a search engine? The same type of brainwashed ambot who types in “Amway is awesome” and come to this blog thanks to the Youtube video called MyAwesome Delicious Amway scam.

These must be new recruits in the early stages of the brainwashing process. Give them a year and they’ll be back doing searches like “Amway is a cult”, "Amway scam", “Amway sucks” and “lost money in Amway”.

 

Amway Maintains Itself Through Brainwashing

The last time we ran the post about Amway being a disgusting cult, one of our readers had this to say – one of the best responses ever on what it’s like to sign up to the Amway cult:

 

This sort of thing happens whenever you join any kind of social group where you are compelled to give up your personal freedom to choose or to decide matters. All groups by their nature are conformist and tyrannical.

Cults are the very worst example of this kind of social group. They force you to obey certain leaders, they limit your range of choices, they dictate how you may use your time, and they extort monetary payments and other kinds of support from you.

But most horrible of all, they COMPEL YOU TO THINK AND REACT IN CERTAIN APPROVED WAYS. You are simply not allowed to have opinions or ideas that run contrary to what the group and its leaders have. And your speech and behavior are constantly scrutinized by everyone else in the cult to make sure that you are not deviating from the cult's approved patterns.

Amway is one of the oldest (and sickest) business cults. The entire aim of up-line in Amway is to rule over down-line IBOs in every aspect of their existence. Speech, thought, behavior, dress, deportment, purchases, friendships, education, and even where you live and what kind of car you drive -- all these things are rigidly controlled by your up-line, and if you attempt to deviate from prescribed patterns you will be abused and publicly vilified.

Fortunately, most members of Amway drop out quickly when they realize what they have signed on for. Up-line rages violently when they do this, but they then work feverishly to replace the IBOs who have resigned with new idiots.

And this is the real truth about Amway: it has nothing to do with the stupid products. It has everything to do with being a cult that maintains itself through intense brainwashing. That's why the Amway speechmakers always talk about "leadership" and "helping others," while neglecting to tell anyone how to sell Amway products to retail customers.

 

 

Amway Is A Disgusting Cult

This is my story. This is your story. This is everyone's story that ever got involved in ScAmway and witnessed the brainwashing and manipulation. Nothing every changes. This could have happened yesterday, 10 years ago, 20 years ago or even longer than that. Thanks to one of our readers for sharing their story on why Amway is a disgusting cult:

 

Amazing blog you have here! Lol it cracks me up.

I have my own little Amway story for you from when I was in the cult: I was in Amway last year dragged in by a co-worker with the idea of making millions and retiring within 2-5.

I soon realized Amway truly is a cult.

My upline would encourage us to cut out our own family and friends if they talked against Amway. They called themselves our family and the only family we need. The constantly badgered me to drag my girlfriend into the cult and it eventually got to a point where they were telling me she’s a non believer and that I should consider dating someone within the Amway cult.

Everyone would worship our upline leader and if anybody decided to say anything controversial about him to anyone inside the cult, the word would get to the leader and he would have a personal one on one talk with you. I remember one time I was talking privately to this guy at one of my first Amway events (I was just asking him basic questions, trying to figure out what this is about) and my upline approached me after and asked me what we were talking about. And they continued by telling me to be careful what I say to other people and if they find out I am talking bad about Amway or anyone within Amway there will be consequences (I don’t know why this didn’t make me run as far away as I could after this incident, I think the idea of riches and retirement was more important to me).

Also our cult leader would hug people at the meetings and tell them “I love you”. He would call all the men within the cult “brother”. He was manipulative and he used weak people to gain their love and trust. After meetings this bastard would bring everyone outside and show off his brand new car he “paid with cash”. He would literally make people sit inside of it just to experience what “they will have one day if they stick to the plan”.

He would exploit certain peoples childhoods and weakness to bring them crawling to his feet. I swear he would tell people this story about how one time he sat through and entire Amway event with a burst appendix because it was more important to him that he received this information than to go to the hospital. What a joke!

I feel like such an idiot for falling for this disgusting cult. Sometimes I can’t even believe I fell for it. They are using a very effective form of brainwashing amongst these people. Its scary to even recall this type of stuff. It is a true cult and there is absolutely no arguing that. I fully 100% believe with all my heart that this is the wrong path to go down. Amway is not a legitimate business opportunity, it is a shitty recruiting job that ends up with you loosing family, friends, and having people laugh in your face when you try and “drop the message” to them. Very scary stuff. I hope all these brainwashed ambots will realize one day they are wasting their time and money.

 

8PM Amway Warriors

At some of the major functions I attended I often heard the speakers from stage refer to the husband as a warrior. The man would call himself a warrior fighting for his family’s financial future. And the wife, good little Barbie Ambot, would look adoringly at her husband and sigh “My warrior.”

Too sickening even for a paperback romance novel!

Amway warriors. Off to fight a war. Of course the big battle is signing up new IBO’s and convincing other people to buy overpriced Amway products.

Ambot would be so fired up after getting home from the function that he’d often send me text messages signed “love, your warrior”.

I’m a pacifist. This blog isn’t the venue to get into a political discussion on any wars or civil unrest going on in the world but suffice it to say that pacifists oppose fighting and war and therefore the term warrior is not such a popular choice to sway any pacifists.

I couldn’t possibly be the only pacifist in a stadium with 10,000 people or however many the stadium holds.

Warriors! Sounds like a game kids play.

Maybe somebody else has better insight on why Amway Diamonds call themselves warriors. Off to war. Fighting a battle against those who oppose the Amway scam.

I came across a post written by a blogger who calls himself the 8pm Warrior where he discusses if MLM is a good opportunity for 8pm warriors. http://8pmwarrior.com/2011/01/is-multi-level-marketing-mlm-a-good-opportunity-for-8pm-warriors/

Edited to add – that’s a dead link but it was good the first time this post appeared! The website has done an overhaul and now it’s more about thoughts from an 8pm warrior. 8pmwarrior.com

First off I want to say I love the name “8pm Warrior”. That is so true of Amway Ambots marching off to their 8pm cult meetings. This blogger is not an Amway IBO but when I first heard of him I thought he might be which is why I took a peek.

This particular post got a few comments including several from a “James” who admits to 10+ year involvement in Quixtar/Amway. He writes rather lengthy responses explaining his point of view as an IBO. A lot of typical Amway speak. To give the guy credit his responses are well written and thought out but for all I know he’s copied and pasted from similar posts that he plasters all over the Internet. Years ago Joecool had a blog visitor named James leaving similar comments and responses to his posts. I can’t help thinking it might be the same guy because he invites others to contact him to further discuss the Amway opportunity. So did the poster named James who commented on Joecool’s blogs. Doesn’t really matter one way or the other except that Joecool’s “James” has not been heard of in a long time and I wondered if this was him resurfacing.

Amway warriors? Go to bed little boys.

 

How Do I Get Someone Out Of The Amway Cult?

There’s a podcast featuring Robert Fitzgerald of Pyramid Scheme Alert and one of the questions the interviewer asks is how do you get someone out of an MLM cult. http://theartofcharm.com/podcast-episodes/robert-fitzpatrick-mlm-doesnt-work-episode-247/

Fitzgerald’s answer goes something along the lines of that’s the million dollar question and if he had the answer he’d be a rich man.

I get dozens of searchers weekly looking for information on how they can get their husband/parent/child/friend out of Amway. What’s really sad is the number of people searching for that on Thanksgiving and Christmas when the Ambot probably didn’t show up for the family gathering or did show up with the arrogant asshole Amway Ambot attitude - and no one needs that shit at a holiday gathering.

People looking for a quick answer on how to get someone out of Amway or any other cult aren’t going to find it. Depending on how badly brainwashed the Amway cult follower is or if he’s showing signs of leaving the cult you might be able to reason with him and to the extreme hiring a specialist who kidnaps the cult follower and tries to deprogram their brainwashed Amway Ambot mind.

There is no one size fits all answer for how to get someone out of Amway. This is an evil cult. The Amway commissioned salespeople are built up to think that they are big important business owners instead of cult followers and are given this dumb fuck title called IBO = Independent Business Owner. The IBO attends countless Amway meetings where they are supposedly given business advice but instead are actually brainwashing sessions.

And yes I know because I was dragged into many Amway cult meetings disguised as “business meetings”. And no you can’t brainwash someone who can’t stand you and sees you for the lying scamming evil sack of shit scumbag that you are. No actual business advice is ever given at Amway “business meetings”. No information on getting yourself registered as a business, getting tax numbers, getting a business bank account, getting a business license, getting business insurance, writing a business plan, creating a profit and loss statement, etc, etc. Some “business advice” given at Amway meetings is to buy from your own store and buy tickets to the next Amway function. Don’t have anything to do with people who won’t support your Amway business. I have a whole bunch more dumb ass “business advice” given at Amway meetings such as don’t dress like a slut but they can be found on other posts on this blog.

Oh wait lets not forget this piece of advice that I have only heard in Amway not in any other business. You must ask permission from the assholes in the Amway upline before you do anything or buy anything. Cult cult cult cult cult!!!!!!!!!!!!!

People fall into cults for various reasons and commercial cults of greed like Amway have to do with getting rich. And getting rich with all their new ambot friends and in 2 years they’ll all be sitting on a beach drinking mai tais while bazillions of dollars in residual income from Amway come rolling in every month and they can sit back and retire and do nothing forever except walk the beaches of the world with the other ambots.

Cults use something attractive and tempting to con a follower into joining. A cult like Amway promises unlimited riches. Other cults might promise a special place in heaven. All cults promise their followers something appealing or at least appealing to the prospect who signs up. If the Amway cult leaders were honest at Amway cult meetings they’d say over 99% of you will never make money, you’ll lose lots of money, your savings account will be wiped out, if you have a house we’ll send you into foreclosure, if you have credit cards we’ll run up your debt to the point you might end up in bankruptcy court, and if you’re married we’re going to destroy your relationship so you’ll get divorced. But Amway cult leaders aren’t honest. They’re full of lies and bullshit about how everyone’s going to be rich and Diamonds sell tickets to brainwashed Ambots and show slide shows of their riches or stuff they’ve rented for a photo shoot and sneer at the followers if we can do it so can you. If the Amway cult leaders were honest - LOL like that would ever happen! - they’d never sign anyone up. That’s why you’ve got to be a good liar if you expect to make any money in Scamway.

It’s no different than Jim Jones and the People’s Temple. Jones enticed his cult followers to move to Guyana where he conveniently named a compound after himself, Jonestown. A tropical paradise where the followers would be free from the evils of the outside world. A place where colored cult followers could live in peace and not be subject to racism. Utopia. There was about 1000 cult followers living there at the end. If Jones had been truthful he would have said we’re going to a hot, humid insect infected country where you’ll be using axes to constantly cut back the jungle and slaving away at hard labor all your waking hours and then we’ll all drink cyanide laced Kool-Aid and die. Jones would have had much less success recruiting cult followers if he’d be honest up front that they were joining a suicide cult and the end was coming soon.

Cult leaders are LIARS!

That’s the only way they can scam people to join their cults. Promising something they know that individual needs.

Around here we get a lot of search engine hits on how to get someone out of the Amway cult. That tells us there are a lot of desperate wives surfing the Internet who are fed up with the Amway bullshit. Although wives have the most searches other searches are how to get a family member or friend out of Amway.

I can’t offer substantial advice other than wait it out and hope your husband is one of the majority who leaves Amway within the year when he finally figures out he’s not making any money. Everyone has different tolerance levels and bank account balances. What pisses off one woman might have little effect on another. Mostly what really pisses off women is the attitude adjustment their husband goes through due to involvement in the Amway cult. Sweet, sensitive husbands are turned into angry, ugly, sneering creatures who constantly criticize everyone who is not in Amway or supporting their Amway business.

But how do you get someone out of Amway? Unfortunately all you can usually do is let the brainwashed ambot dig their own grave. Once they max out their credit cards and drain their bank account they can’t keep tithing the Great Amway God and then they’ll face the anger and wrath from the fucking assholes in the Amway upline when there’s no more money to be sent up the pyramid. They probably are facing foreclosure, bankruptcy, maybe divorce. When they stop listening to brainwashing CD’s and attending Amway cult meetings their mind starts to clear. And they quit. Usually happens inside a year maybe two years. Any longer than that inside the Amway cult the person is usually a lifer.

I’ve had a few desperate visitors leave comments asking how to get their loved one out of the Amway cult and there really is no answer but the links in the right side of this page under more information about Amway might help such as reading the free ebook Merchants of Deception, watching the Dateline videos, checking out the Pyramid Scheme website for resources, or looking for groups that can deprogram cult followers such as Steve Hassan who has helped deprogram former Amway cult members.

Wives who are married to ambots and going through the shit the asshole in his Amway upline are putting your through might have to see a lawyer for proper legal advice and get their ducks in a row for when things turn worse. Marriages are hard enough when going through money problems and even worse when the evil Amway cult is the main contributor to money problems.

Hang in there as long as you can and I hope things get better for you.

 

Who Sells The Shittiest Towels? – Amway!

The worst towels I have ever used came from Amway. This was a few years back. I have no idea if Amway still sells shitty towels. I can’t remember what colors Ambot purchased. I definitely remember red. I think the other set was a different color, maybe blue or green.

The first time I used the towels all the little red fluff came off all over my body. YUCK! So I toss them in the washer and dryer hoping that a cycle will get rid of the fluffies. I know from past experience that sometimes a washing or two is necessary to get the lint off.

No such luck. For the next month I washed and dried those suckers multiple times following each use because everytime I used them I was grossed out by all the towel fluff left on my body. Talk about low quality at a premium price! Not to mention how irritating it is to dry myself off and have towel parts stuck all over me. Absolutely disgusting.

After a month I told Ambot I refused to use those shitty towels anymore. I went to the department store and bought Ralph Loren Polo towels. They were lower priced and better quality than the Amway towels. The best thing? No more shedding!

The second best thing is those higher quality RL towels lasted for years. They’d still be going strong except I decided I needed a change and headed to JC Penney to buy some nice plush Egyptian towels. If anyone is looking for good quality reasonably priced fluffy luxurious towels, they’re from the Chris Madden Home Collection at JC Penney. (Edited to add since this post first appeared on the blog I’m really fucking pissed off at JC Penney for not carrying this brand anymore the last time I needed to refresh the towels.)

Getting back to the fluff magnets, Ambot was able to return the towels with the complaint that they shed worse than our dog. I guess our sack of shit Platinum and other fucking assholes in our Amway upline lost some points on that refund too! Upline losing bonus points because of me is, well, always a bonus!
