Ateya Weave Pyramid Scheme?? LOL

⏳ Limited Access:

Register today to view all forum posts.

I unsubscribed. Not sure what took me so long to be honest. I cringe almost everytime I watch her videos.

I always liked Ateya, but this video just shows how much she doesn't care about her subscribers. I don't know why I always think these Youtubers are sincere.
 
Wow @ yahoo dragging! :)
I've had my yahoo addy since the 90s, when I first got Internet. I have gmail for important emails, but I love my yahoo addy.
Back on topic, I wonder if Ateya still uses Aphpoogee (sp)?
 
It's just another mlm like avon, mary k, prepaid legal, bedroom kandi, those extreme body shapers, scentsy, pampered chef, tupperware, acn, that organo gold coffee, arbonne, etc. etc. etc.


Scentsy is too damn high for what it is. I have one as a gift but man! I looked up the price of it and :nono: thanks for the gift but man! A Starbucks gift card would have sufficed.

The body wraps are pretty much Icy/Hot slathered on your skin and Saran wrap. Minty and warm with plastic.
 
I didn't know yahoo email was antiquated lol. I have 4 emails. 2 yahoo and 2 gmail.

I get confused over the disdain for hotmail and yahoo email accounts, Lol. I have 4 email addresses that I use regularly.

- My hotmail account, I've had it since 2006, and I use it when I sign up for stuff and for more personal usage.
- My gmail account I use for professional stuff when applying for jobs
- My blog email address
- My professional makeup artistry email address

Nope, not pronouncing success right really grinds my gears so I'm good.

People work hard to not have to work lol.

The way she pronounces "month" as "munt" cracks me up. She puts so much emphasis on it too. "Only 9.97 a MUNT!"
 
It's just another direct sales business, but the product is weave.

I don't believe all direct sales companies are pyramid schemes. I don't like that she's recruiting on Youtube though.
 
Off topic: I truly don't understand why so many stan for Gmail while rallying over companies like FB skirting the line with privacy issues. Why should everyone only use gmail? I have an account under protest especially since I can't sort and delete emails as I would like with gmail but all things being equal I still prefer my AOL account. Google is too dang nosy.

ON topic: Ateyaa is a mess.
 
I really do not like the way that the people that try to sell you these things pitch it. They always act like it's such easy money and it's a no brainer. This guy on my FB was always pitching that Wake up now nonsense the same way, and Lord, the people that used to pitch that Motorclub USA one. Her faux excitement doesn't move me at all.
 
Maybe not a straight pyramid, but an MLM. There are legitimate MLM's out there that don't rip off people. Only way I could see it happening is if you built a team that could supply hair to salons in different districts and some small, independent bss's or independent makeup/hair stylists that do shows and events. You'd need some capital, though.
 
OMG that was so fake. Made it through a little over a minute of that crap. Even if it is a legitimate MLM she doesn't sound sincere AT ALL

Ladies, I'm a little older and I'm REEEEAAAL low tech. Can somebody explain to me the differences between emails. I thought they were all the same. There's a hierarchy? Like social tiers?


About the MLMs--I have a friend that is doing that Body by Vi. I love her, honest I do, but now I'm avoiding her because I HATE the hard sell. Sometimes I think she's calling just to feel me out to see if I or somebody close to me can become a "client." I took her out to lunch for her birthday and was so embarrassed when she tried to sell the waitress AND the chef of the restaurant. :nono:

Gmail is in
Hotmail, AOL, and Yahoo are wack

LOL

That was real technical. You did not explain why one is technologically better than the other. Just 'cause you prefer GMAIL doesn't mean it's better....BTW I don't have Yahoo.Hotmail or AOL.....If either of these works for others what's the biggg deal???!!! Just wondering on a technical level....
 
Your email address can date you. If I see an aol email on a resume I would presume that person is 40 - 50 years old. Younger people are using gmail these days or their school address or their internet provider address (i.e., [email protected], [email protected])

Why are so many Black women selling weave and wigs?
There are so many other businesses available but every other day a Black "celebrity" is hawking weave or wigs.:perplexed

Right? Now all my gmails have to be synced under one main one being able to switch out users. Big Brother I see you watching and I don't like it.

I like Gmail better than Yahoo but Yahoo is my professional email. I don't know why but I feel like Gmail is more BS type of mail...boards, forums, etc. Personal/professional that's secondary to my work email is sbcglobal.
 
Dayjoy There is no technical reason. Its opinion that is misguided at best. The sad thing is the preference for gmail is repeated ad nauseum by human resource experts so if you're looking for a job its almost mandatory that you either have a gmail account (or your own personal one ie jobseekerbrooklynbornnbred dot com otherwise you're viewed as someone "out of touch" with current standards. Not one of these "experts" that I've questioned regarding privacy concerns can (or will) answer my question though. They are just repeating what was told to them.

LMAO I was just joking
 
If you really think about it, most of the major companies (your job) is a pyramid scheme. There's only one person at the top (CEO) and all of the hourly paid workers (you) at the bottom. I'm just sayin...

:lachen::lachen: I use aol and I am not in that age range lol.
 
We actually have an article on our company blog about what dates you on a resume. Old email accounts like AOL and Hotmail are one of them.

Lawd a weave pyramid scheme! I done heard it all now! What's next? Lol!
 
I don't like Yahoo because of the constant spamming. It just never stops. I have both Yahoo and Gmail.
 
she still youtubing?? I'm not gonna watch that cause I can't stand the way she speaks but is she still neck length? :look:

That video was pure authentic trash.

First of all her opening title is "Your on your way to success." Clearly Ateeyaa does not know the difference between "your" and "you're"

I wish I could go on but I stopped listening when she said...and I quote...ahem..."If you got a team that has another team, guess what?!? If they're under you...if they're under yo team..you want everybody to win!?"

Uhhh what?
