Grossinger Toyota / Williams & Associates
Job Training Rip-off scam. They Promise a job but deliver a heist

I responded to a job offer at Grossinger Toyota from my Careerbuilder profile.

The pitch was that the dealer (In this case, Grossinger Toyota) hires Williams and Associates to screen and train their sales staff. Williams and associates charges all trainees for the classes and job placement which will be taken out of their first few checks when they are hired.

The scam is that nobody is hired, for a variety of reasons.By the time you get the phone call from the dealer telling you, you were not selected, Sam (W&A's trainer) has skipped town with your deposit $ and becomes unreachable.

I eventually did reach him after 3 days and he said not to worry, they didn't hire me so nothing would happen. Almost one year -to the day - later I am receiving phone calls from NCO financial collecting on the debt to Williams and Associates. The debt that SAM said "not to worry about" because they didn't place me so he "would take cae of it."

The lessons here are:
If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
If you have to pay to get the job, it isn't really a job to begin with.

Shame on you grossinger for associating yourselves with these thieves! What other creative ways do you employ to rip-off honest people?
