I wish I had researched into this sooner so that I wouldn't have wasted my time and money. Here are the two adds in the Austin-American Statesman Sunday paper for May 18th down here in Austin, TX:
"Asst. Manager; WAAZZ UP! Are serious about having fun and making $. We have openings for Asst. Mgr. & Mgmt Trainees. No exp. Ok. Rapid adv. Call Elaine (512) 323-2745." (Name on office is Global Design under Scentura Creations)
OR (the one I was hired onto)
"Asst. Mgr / Mgr Trainee; CIRCLE ME! Serious $ working w / non-serious people. Wild & crazy ofc. Start immediately. No exp nec. Will train. Cindy (512) 385-5333" (Name on this office is Lonestar Designs also under Scentura Creations; Kim and Bryce are the ones who "manage" the Lonestar Designs office in Austin, TX)
Throughout that week they were spewing forth promises of having our very own office, making $52,000/year as a first year manager then $72,000/year for our second year (never went beyond 2 years... Wonder why). They even said there was a $10,000 bonus for each year that your office was open. We were only told little bits of info about the company and how to become successful each day before noon (before we all went out and peddled perfume the rest of the day). If we wanted to know more we would have to come back the next day. I was ready to leave by the third day but couldn't because I was still expecting my box of 15 perfumes/colgnes that my FFAR (family, friends, and relatives) had ordered from me for the first day contest. Oh yeah the contest... Who ever sold the most would receive $300... I sold the most and what did I get out of that contest a measely $20 cash that I didn't even get until a week later with my 15 fragrances. On top of all that the kind of people that they hired were unbelievable... 18 to 20 year old kids having like 5 kids themselves... People that have been in jail so many times that they lost count... Etc. That night is when I decided to see what was up with the company. Needless to say I spent one week there and left. I thought I was being hired on as a Manager Trainee but turns out I was selling business to business and in parking lots. There were so many questions I needed answered and these undignified people weren't helping so I turned to the Internet to do my own research into Scentura Creations... This is when I found your site. My eyes were opened and no matter what they said the next day when I returned with the flyers, all I could hear coming out of there mouths were bullshit. I was so pissed off after I read all the scam info on these bastards that I was ready to bring down the company... Unfortunately you were right about them covering their asses legally (barely legal I would say). If there is a way to bring this company down I will back y'all 150%. I am a very honest and trustworthy person so it boggles my mind as to how they can run such an unethical business... I couldn't do that, that is why I left. I am trying to get to these people right before or after their first interview with flyers and petitions on the company but I am only one person here that can do only so much.
I would love to bring down this company once and for all and to see the owner go bankrupt with his corrupt money. What else can I do, please... Any info would be helpful.
