Anna Bey #35 The Elegant Stylist: Undersmelling the scam, the school is over, what's her next plan?

[teki_awas]

Hello tattlers, I have been summoned to the thread thanks to a correspondence from Bey International. For newcomers: I'm the A-list app's whistle-blower who was later blocked from the app just a few months after its launch. See my earlier posts for context.

As you can see in the invoice, it communicates that I will be charged for the 2022-2023 membership renewal. I can confirm that the money did in fact get charged and left my bank account.

It took Anna Bey from May 14th until June 6th to find out that I have been wrongfully charged. I did exercise my Right to Erasure and I have written confirmation that my data was securely deleted, last year, by Mighty Networks (the platform that manages the app). Wrong! They still have my personal information and my credit card on file. Excuse me while I go type a long email to both Anna Bey and Mighty Networks.

Holy smokes. I spent half of this morning scrolling through this feed and I cannot believe what I am reading about this person. This woman has had scam, after scam, after scam. When she got married, I thought that perhaps she MIGHT be legit. But then we never see her actually spending time with her hubby. She is always on walks alone, goes to shows with a girlfriend only, always seems to spend a lot of time alone. Then she has her social media job creating content for her socials, youtube, and her courses. That takes time too. So when exactly does she see her husband? She even seems to take vacations without him. She even posted a picture of a dead pigeon because she probably had no one around her to talk about it with. And what is up with this week-long "detox" retreat. It is not 2010 anymore and we all know that no one needs to detox. She just ate a lot during her vacation and wanted to lose weight, so she went to extremes, even getting an IV drip for no real medical reason? That is ridiculous that she is promoting something so dangerous. Just eat right and exercise again if you put on a little holiday weight. No need for such medically invasive extremes!

It seems like once she is finished collecting money from one course or FB group, she goes and makes another course or FB group on the same topic but uses a different name. She also seems to want to only hire women, as they are more easy to bully by another woman (herself) and women will typically accept a lower salary level. I am pretty sure she would offer a lower salary because she explicitly states that the person must already be located in Geneva (i.e. she doesnt want to bring someone in from abroad and be forced to pay a fair wage based on visa requirements). I could be wrong and maybe Anna would not take advantage of other women, but in my experience, If it walks like a duck, smells like a duck, quacks like a duck, its a duck.

The A-list thing is the worst imo. This is a thinly veiled attempt to gather people's government IDs, their google/facebook info, and make money at the same time. How does a government ID ensure that these women are, indeed, part of the elite? It doesn't. She is just trying to get data so she can sell it. Big enterprises like Facebook, Google, etc do not need a government ID to create an account. So why does Anna need it? Based on what I am reading here in this forum, it looks like she does not even provide a contract when users sign up, saying how the data will or will not be used. This is a HUGE RED FLAG. All companies, all apps that collect data from you have this contract in place. All of them. Otherwise, it is illegal in Europe according to the GDPR. I hope that no one here signed up for this garbage and if you did and you did not receive a contract saying how your data will be used, I sincerely hope that you report it to local authorities. I live in Europe, dealing with data and I am telling you, it is not legal. There are strict requirements here. If anyone else here has more info from the law enforcement or legal side of things, please do not hesitate to share as well.

Why would someone want to look “expensive as a tourist”?

 

[TulipLillies]

Hi, everyone! Just popping by from other threads. It's not going to be a popular opinion, but I don't really mind Ms Bey. She is snake oil salesman, which is nothing new. As long as there are customers, that will be lucrative business. I think she finally figured how to achieve her affluent lifestyle and her primary income is YT. I personally know a guy who is doing true crime on YT, has a channel with around 75k subs and who donated to good causes 78k so far. She is well over million subs and has at least 200k views on every video. She can afford designer rags. Does she buy original designer goods? I doubt. She is too wise for that. If she does, it's an investment. She is buying items that have permanent value on the market/collectibles.
I feel she is not a bad person at core. I feel she is badly damaged though, being through a lot before getting where she is now. I don't sense malice in her. She has strong male, active energy. That's why she failed in her attempts to achieve her goals through men. Men with money are usually alphas with same energy that she has - they are not attracted to the same energy women intuitively. They need female energy, passive and nourishing that she doesn't naturally has and can't fake. Her attempts to give feminine and seductive impression are forced and cheap, since they are not natural. She is also confused between desire to look like a lady/old money and imperative to be attractive to wealthy men. Rich men used to marry from their social circle for obvious convenience, but that is pretty much matter of the past. Even back in a day it wasn't always a case. Let's take Rothschilds who everyone knows, I presume - Jacob did precisely that, marrying aristocrat - his son Nat, however, married twice - both ladies are...well, interesting choice. Complete opposite to 'old money' type, let's put it this way.

She is very ambitious and hard working, don't be fooled - the thing is, you can achieve many things by trying hard, however, in this particular situation, the harder you try, more desperate you appear and that is never a winning combination. Anna is trying too hard. She would have better chances if she lets the pretending go and just be fun, relaxed and natural, which is what most men appreciate in women, them being affluent or 'Joes'. But she doesn't like herself very much, so she wears mask all the time, trying to fit the part she thinks affluent men like when it comes to women. That's the sad part. Aija is not good enough, she needs to change everything and to pretend all the time if she wants to be deserving, in her mind. Sadly, not all the changes she made were good. Just her lips are enough for her to not be taken seriously in circles she's desperately thriving to enter. She doesn't have naturally old money or classy aesthetic or vibe. You are part of those circles or you are not. Faking doesn't help there. You are an outsider and they know it. And you'd be better of with genuine personality that may be likable. She is visually too obvious - unlike Meghan, for example. And there is wrong energy issue. She is not a 'killer' by nature, she lacks that unscrupulous, vile streak in her. No win situation for her there. That's why she is making money off women very successfully. Gullible sods are here to stay from the beginning of times. Anna is their snake oil seller. Consenting trade, nothing illegal. Well done her, tough brake for those girls, but you do pay for the experience in life, one way or another. Anna payed for it in much worse way, than financial. The best thing she shares with those girls is to invest in themselves.

She was an escort and she went long way from that in a very short time by herself - once she figured that she is the one that has the power of changing her life. If those girls learn just that from her, it's fine. Yes, we can find million reasons why is her thing wrong or bad, but let's be real here - she is not forcing anyone to pay her anything, or to watch her content. She is no different from any influencer who is payed to flog rubbish. They are all after your money. She is not making false promises - that she will provide rich husbands for those girls once they pay for her course. She is clear about what she is selling, it's up to every individual to decide if that is worth of their money. She is using instant culture where everything is simplified, sized down to digested form, ready made and requires no brains and no effort. People love to think that they can pay for the shortcut to class, glamour, manners, style, wealth, lucrative marriage or whatever. As long as they are unintelligent enough to really believe that most of it is possible without putting time and effort into it. And even than. Internet is full of relationship gurus who teach women how to, basically, manipulate men, wealthy or poor, no difference, into commitment. Not to mention proper books about self help. psychology, business, style, anything on the face of earth that you may need in order to inform yourself and 'level up' in life. Achiee something if you were not fortunate enough that education possibilities and certain social background were not something you were born into. Those girls are choosing shortcut named Anna Bey. And that doesn't make her any less opportunist. But she is not doing anything wrong if you think about it. Not being entirely sincere about your past is not a crime. Most people are not. She isn't part of high society? She was close enough. And she saw the worst side of it, rest assured. A maid or a battler of the wealthy will give you better insight into that circles than anyone who was part of it. She sells what she learned hard way during years of very challenging lifestyle. She is pretty much open about it, or she used to be, according to what I've read here.
Again - if those girls can take the important part from her story, it's not a waste. It would be for someone else most certainly, but if they are not comprehending basics, all that she is selling will be beneficial for them.

OK. Too long for the first time. I realize it won't be popular, but that's just my two cents. Use your reading discretion, please. Just like you (should) do when going online and giving your money or time to various contents. Stay safe everyone!

oooo, the favorite destination of Eastern Europeans who can’t afford more (‘cause Croatia is costing double )……sorry, Raty’s idea of ”high society holiday”……how do you know it’s Greece, did she announce she found an “all inclusive” offer in some Paralia Katerini or similar ?

Actually, both Greece and Croatia have different price range offers, just like majority of destinations around the globe. You can travel both countries backpack style or stay in exclusive resorts/hotels which are, if labeled as such, little more exclusive in Greece, after all. The rest is a matter of preference. For example, I don't find Corfu to be the most striking among Greek islands, yet (again) Jacob Rothschild has based his favorite holiday home precisely there, enjoying the view on Albania every year for the last 40+ years, welcoming world elite as his guests very frequently.

There is one more thing I'd like to ask all of Tattle peops and especially mods - there has been, as far as I have been reading on here, many inappropriate, or lets say blatant racists and xenophobic comments regarding Russians, Eastern Europeans, now we have Greeks, etc. I see it as unpardonable, not necessary and intolerable. It shouldn't be going on here, and it shouldn't be tolerate. Thanks.

7 Driving Mistakes That Tell You're NOT Classy
My dear ehleghunt ladies, don't do these mistakes. Even if you have a Honda rather than a Mercedes, you can still be classy on the roads! Disclaimer: Anna is not a driving instructor

1. Picking your nose or popping pimples whilst stopped at a traffic light - yes, really. She said this
2. Eating in your car
3. Having a dirty, messy, or cluttered car
4. Road rage. If any of Anna's followers struggle with this issue, I recommend they watch this
5. Singing loudly in your car (yes, she demonstrates!) or playing loud music
6. Smoking in your car. Quote: "(they) can't be able to stop smoking."
7. Stopping in the middle of the road and blocking traffic. Quote: "you are not alone on planet earth"

Elegant driving? Honestly? Makes me shudder to think of what could be coming next. Elegantly scrapping the bottom of the content barrel, perhaps?

 

[teki_awas]

It was incredibly painful to look up logos of her products to make this meme, they're quite awful and low quality.

 

[Cykelkorg]

She gave us a treat today!
I must confess… I almost want to apply.

 

[anija]

Agree!

No matter where she is her travel stories are:
- boring room shots
- complaining about the weather
- complaining about other people's outfits
- sitting on a deck chair in some generic beach club
- sitting alone at a dinner table eating fish
- posing with a fake bag on random stairs in a button-down shirt dress
- sitting alone in a hotel lobby (sometimes drinking coffee)

Recap! Anna has rebranded for the millionth time, currently as "The Elegant Stylist" despite her obvious incompetence where style is concerned. She's running yet another scam webinar and falsely claiming to have a degree again, this time in "etiquette and protocol." She released a hilarious video about inehleghant perfumes where she referred to the "undersmell" of perfume and claimed her toilet smells like YSL Black Opium. Still no sight of Joe and/or Ivan.

Show us your toilet, Anna! You only share your IKEA closet filled with last year purchased brands and recent purchased 'SATC' dupes. Show us that marble toilet that smells like YSL Black Opium. Better yet, do a tour of your apartment. No, hotel rooms do not count any more since ladies here caught you pretending them to be your home and background screens don't count either. Come on, you scamming bi-atch.

Long-time lurker and first-time poster here. Dropping by just to report that I’m pretty sure I spotted Anna at Zurich airport this past Thursday evening. She was waiting at the carousel for her luggage, alone, sporting an A-line midi purple dress, the ever-present straw hat and wedges. She was watching a video on her phone and smiling beatifically most of the time.

I actually liked the outfit, and it did fit her nicely for once (she looks smaller in person and is quite slim), but she was extremely overdressed for the occasion and looked VERY out of place.

 

[Verona]

Calling that Bank Audi's property a big apartment... So big that in 7 steps you cross that room adapted to a closet... So big that until this day the restroom and the kitchen are a mistery... So big that 5 people in the main part of the "living room" would make it crowded... That can be big for someone who lives in a cubicle in NY, but for an alleged millionaire's wife that whole property is a joke. Taking exercises in a paved area outside the "office" is a joke. Picturing yourself in a gym only while travelling is a joke. It's a sum of details that shows that she is not living the million dollar lifestyle she preaches. She is not stuck with a high-caliber man nor is rich. That's what we've been pointing out since the beginning. And that's why that lunatic is breaking down right now hinting she is tired of it all. She can't keep up with the crap she created. Poor thing...

 

[Lilyhermes]

I'm a lazy dresser and I never get compliments on my outfits.

View attachment 1551111

What may I ask is stylish about this outfit? Pants way too short in length for the flared leg, ballerina’s that make her feet look like canal barges; a turtleneck/sleeveless top (always hate that combination) and most of all, a bag that’s too feminine and dainty for the rest of the ensemble.

There’s no style to this outfit. It’s so boring that it would put most anyone to sleep. She’s delusional if she thinks this is style. I doubt that Anna would recognize true style even if it bit her on the derrière.

 

[LucyGr]

Omg these questions it sounds like she is busier than U.S president. IS SHE DELUSIONAL?

 

[Verona]

I love the couple behind in a public display of affection... A plain jane and her average joe loving each other while Anna Bey, all "fancy" and "superior", a "catch" for "real gentlemen" is all alone... No "millionaire hubby", no Bassam, not even a damn client/friend...

 

[ThirdWorldGlam]

I haven't posted here in a while, hello elegant ladiezzz.

Some old members have stopped posting, which it's a shame, some valuable ladiezz used to contribute some good tips (like, real tips!) on fashion and lifestyle.

I'd like to point out some things that catched my attention during the last few threads.

- Her "luxury flat" - whatever it's a flat provided by her "husband's job" or a business lobby, unsure. It just feels like that's not her own flat or furniture at all.

But if that's her taste on furniture, well...is not that it's a great flat at all.

That thing in the background, looks like a front door. So she's reporpusing the only "spare room" as her closet. Not that affluent.

What in the hell are those bottles / mini-bar situation there? Screems "lobby" and/or "alcoholic" a lot.

I wouldn't display bottles like that in my living, Jesus, it's not that hard to have an actual mini-bar?

The fact that the painting in her background it's quite similar to the one of her living, leads me to believe that this decoration it's some basic lobby or business apartment, as usually those come with some generic designs.

I am not sure about the artists who made those paintings but I am 100% sure that if Anna would have spent a penny on art she would have shared that to death on Social Media.

Anna, if you're reading, will you try harder on going to auctions? Trendy galleries? Why is that you're never - like - LITERALLY NEVER, invited to any gallery event?

She can't afford art and she does not have the knowledge to even try to fake so.

And please, that random background visible throught the glass, that's not a private / expensive neighborhood, isn't it?

Now... Fragances.

Anna has visited a lot of duty free / airports in her lifetime, right? Probably more than the avarage person.
I can't believe that she lacks some really basic knowledge regarding some classics you can tell that she is lazy and unintelligent to an extent that it's actually, weird?

Dear elegant ladiez, going to the airport with comfy clothing makes a lot of sense, mostly because you are already on "holiday mood" and you are keen on spending those euros/usd/pounds on stuff for yourself. Or at least, that should be your mindset.

Anna has provided some horrible advice in terms of "being elegant in the airport" (while saving her fake clutch in the back of the seat??) and kind of forgot that one of the main opportunities that you have at any international airport, are the testers! yes! free stuff for you to try on!

No shame on not being literate about fragances.
On Tattle, we are not here to shame gals that have are not "old money" or that have not "bagged a rich husband". We are here to help

If you are in the position of not being sure about what fragances to buy or you feel ashamed by your lack of knowledge about it...
Do yourself a favour, next time you are at any boutique store or airport, wear comfy but super clean clothing and go try a few samples.

It's key wearing an outfit that fits you well but chill. If you have some nice bag, wear it alongside your comfy jumper, that's the vibe which will likely help you catch the attention of the staff there so you can try testers.

Don't be anxious about it! Even if you are not ready to buy anything, they're there to help and most people go try a bunch of stuff before or after the check-in.

My personal strategy it's trying just 3 or 4 testers, otherwise I feel confused by all the options.
I already know "the classics" but if you don't, that's where you should start.

You will notice that your brain will likely remember your favourite ones, keep the tags and testers and if after a few tries you're still in love with the fragance, that's it, that's your baby!
Go invest on stuff that you love. Don't base your purchases on random Youtube lists or on-line reviews.

Some of my favourite fragances are not that expensive at all and I found them after months going back and forth on different boutiques or trips.

Common sense here:
Expensive classic fragances, are expensive and classics for a reason. That's why it's silly the latest Anna video. It's not that you can't criticize Chanel, but you need to understand that their place on history has a reason.
You will smell some fragances over and over walking around certain social circles. You should NEVER (like, NEVER) say out loud if you dislike a well known fragance.
If someone asks you about your personal taste, just share what are your personal favourites and underline that "this or that" fragance it's not good in your skin. Which actually, it's the truth!

Sometimes Chanel No. 5 it's divine, sometimes it's a weird smell, there's also a seassonal and cultural aspect on all this stuff.

More common sense:
Yes, you can wear Britney Spear's fragances if you love them. But I would encourage you to find a few middle range price stuff for special occasions. It also puts you in the mindest of discovering high quality and understanding why some items are expensive. It's an art itself creating an iconic frangance and its branding.

I will add more on this later, but it's a good starting point and hopefully it's free advice for gals that been scammed in the past

 

[teki_awas]

Not creepy at all, Anna, not creepy at all. Take them where you never belonged!




A quick update on the borderline fraudulent charge for the A-list membership: I wasn't the only one wrongfully charged for the membership renewal! I'm cancelling my credit card to further protect myself from Anna Bey. If she needs money that bad, shouldn't she take out a loan instead? I'm surprised that a banker's wife can't manage her books properly.

 

[annabeyhoax]

Anna looks like one of those dolls that adult men use for company. What are those called again?

 

[The water goblin]

The main subject being 'elegance, elite society, networking with elite' but in reality she mainly trains women to become easy prey for sex industry.

Personally, this is also what bothers me with Anna and why I am on this forum. Her channel was recommended to me when I was a late teenager (and there were women in these threats also stating they found Anna quite early) and I was quite naive and impressionable in regards to relationships. I was in an abusive relationship at the time and her advice on where to search for “better men” really stuck with me. I didn’t want to marry a millionaire, I just wanted to find someone who would treat me nice. I thankfully found this thread quite early after I started watching her videos and realized how stupid her advice is.

Earlier this year I was approached by a significantly older man (I think it was like a 30-40 year age gap), who offered to pay me if I fly and spend time with him in the Caribbean. I declined his offer immediately and he proceeded to text me through multiple numbers (after I blocked the first one) and waited for me at my gym to talk to me even after I have told him multiple times I didn’t want any contact with him. It was quite scary. With some help, I managed to get him to stop. But I am mentioning this because according to Anna this would be the perfect man. He met me at a location Anna mentions as a good location for meeting good men, he seemed very polite at first and he offered me all kinds of stuff,… I can’t even imagine what would happen if I followed Anna’s advice on dating and continued talking to him. I think her advice is really dangerous.

 

[london89]

I'm convinced she's working a full time job somewhere and her 'technical issues' is that she hasn't had time. It's also why she posts absolutely nothing about her million dollar lifestyle during the weekdays but often a lunch on the weekend

"10 Things that tell you're educated" - expertise by Anna Bey

"We tend to think that being educated has to do with higher education. But actually being a person who is well educated has to do with so many other things than just going to school and get good grades."

I'm leaving in Anna's original wording and grammar and not correcting it since she is our educated expert.

"This video is not about pretending, that we are well educated."

1. "Not pretending you are well educated." - Anna is criticizing people who are discussing "specific topics to show off their whatever intelligence" or use "fancy language".
2. "Having variety in your life." - I love how she is speaking about being educated with all of these grammatical errors. Don't get me wrong there is definitely room for improvement with my own English skills and it is nowhere near perfect, but lecturing others about being educated while making so many mistakes - I can't with this woman.
3. "Having variety while traveling."
4. "Being well read." - "And there is this kind of stereotype that we have to read all the classics - Tolstojevski, Kafka, Shakespeare, etc. But the truth is that even tho yes, you should read classics, but what about also the things that you are truly interested in."
5. "Having hobbies." - So for Anna that would be binge-watching Netflix and reading Tattle?
6. "Attending cultural events." - "We don't want to just do cultural events just for show just that we seem educated and smart." Anna loves "seeing a good ballet, a good opera, a nice musical, or just going to the theatre in general." One of the few points Anna is qualified to talk about, she has a wide range of expertise in attending events just to pretend (when and if she is invited of course).
7. "Practice analytical Thinking."
8. "Not overusing the Term "I don't know"."
9. "Attending conferences and seminars." *Ad for her course* When have you, Anna, attended anything?
10. "Having correct table manners." *Ad for her course*

I can't with this one.
