I was just ripped off yesterday by Fashion Rock. I am an aspiring actress and a full time college student. I work when I'm not in class and have saved up my hard earned money to pursue my dreams. When I was researching the internet for "acting" through google's website... Fashion rock was one of the first links that appeared.
The website looked legitimate... The phone interview seemed legit, until they wanted to immediately bill my credit card. They built me up over the phone and continuously complimented me and after being interviewed by two representatives, the scouts told me that I had been selected out of thousands of applicants to attend this event on Orlando, FL where famous celebrities and tv network talent reps. Would be.
It was all bullshit! After being on the phone with Fashion Rock, I told my friend about it and he said that it sounded suspicious. So we did a few background checks with the Better Business Bureau and found out that so many people had been scammed out of their money-even after requesting cancellation of their reservations with this phony group led by LIE (not Lou) PEARLMAN. This is the same ugly fat guy that you see in lawsuits on VH1 invovling the Backstreet Boys and especially INSYNC.
He sounds like one greedy bastard to me and I think that this guy should have been placed behind bars years ago.
This posting is a huge warning to anyone who may be interested in modeling, acting, or singing.
You should always remember that if you are truly talanted... You should not have to pay to perform-you should GET PAID. The only fees you will ever have to encounter are headshots/zed cards or agency fees-not THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS! These companies prey on SUCKERS with no brains or confidence. I thought I had brains and confidence and they even scammed me-so please beware of these CRIMINALS.
-I will post again to update the status of my claim.
