Ding Dong! Avon Calling!

Some time ago, someone claiming to be a relative (or ex-relative) of everyone's favorite discredited diet guru posted a little something about Hidey on Slamboard. One interesting tidbit was the allegation of a scam in which Hidey was selling Avon and claimed products and money were stolen from her.

Well, she was selling Avon, that much is true, as is evidenced by this horribly designed Avon Leadership Referral Page. Beware of the multiple pop-up ads. That's a valid past address for her.

A 'leadership unit' is apparently Avon-speak for recruitment. One wonders how many people actually contacted "heidi4avon@aol.com" and got sucked into whatever scam she was trying to pull.

Elle that was great to see more evidence of her scamming ways. I recall the Avon scam being mentioned as her way of defrauding others, but I had not looked into Kimmers involvement with Avon.
The other thing that was mentioned during an interchange with the source was that Heidi Diaz pretended to be receiving cancer treatment in the form of chemotherapy. I would imagine that her baldness helped facilitate that lie without anyone challenging her.

Now, this is a good example of why the members of the LCF Fascination thread- continue in digging up information and how we can't only stick to watching Kimkins.com.
Heidi is not going to stick to the same con when her assets are frozen, so that means she is looking for her next group of victims.
Thanks for adding another piece to the puzzle!

I tell you, it's a good thing her son had some internet skills to help her or Kimmer may have sold him off too! Anything to scam a buck.
