Talent Rip-off new news on the chairman

This is an article that I found on CNN.com:

"'N Sync's Pearlman probed

ORLANDO, Florida (AP) — Boy-band hitmaker Lou Pearlman is the target of a state probe into complaints that hundreds of aspiring models and actors were duped into paying up to $1,500 each for spots on his company's Web site.

The investigation, which began in August, has turned up "hundreds of potential violations" but no one who actually landed a job through the company, Assistant Attorney General Jackie Dowd said. Pearlman, best known for launching the Backstreet Boys and 'N Sync, issued a statement Friday saying he was unaware of the investigation.

Florida law prohibits talent agencies from collecting fees upfront, but the promoter said Trans Continental was exempt because it is a "scouting" company that finds talent without marketing it.

The company's Web site warns hopeful models that "chances of becoming a superstar in this industry are slim" and the company "will not book you directly." But Trans Continental claims more than 1,000 agencies and clients are registered with it."

FYI: I was scouted at the Hartford, CT office. I was almost tricked - those salopards will pay for wasting my time!
