(For all effected nationwide please notify. I am taking action on principle alone).
The company Simply Sweet Wine (simplysweetwine.com) is a complete scam happening not only in Austin, but other cities throughout the United States. They claim to have a headquarter (per there website) at "9600 Great Hills Trail Austin, TX 78759" and open Monday-Friday 9 to 5PM. However, this building allows clients (this is a legitimate building) to reserve space on a daily basis. Per the office manager, they were only there one day to instigate the scam. The building charged $90 for the office space and the credit card turned out to be declined thus the building lost the money as well. The office manager and building are also concerned. Please note the following regarding the scam:
1. A craigslist posting is placed stating jobs for $20 an hour doing wine demo's.
2. Examples (in multiple cities - I have screen shots in case they expire) can be found on Craigslist (search "Wine Demo" in "all gigs").
3. Upon instant hire, they charge a $25 badge fee (to get it made) which is reimbursable at training the following week.
4. The following week, the interviewer (a supposed "Curtis Jackson" whom we all met with and there should be video camera evidence of his presence) text'd some (not all) that training was cancelled because he was on vacation. His phone number (still have) was soon disconnected.
5. The website is registered to (I have more details in regards to this). Note how the name spelling differs here than the on the website.in addition, the website says he was born in Italy, yet "Cadafi Bryant" does not sound Italian by any means. That home address differs on his other websites (he is listed in Michigan as well) and the phone numbers are all invalid. And I doubt the "President" exists (Sarah Mclimans). It mentions she has been President for 4 years, yet the website domain only was created January 5. This is most likely to divert against the real owner.
Registrant:
Cadafi Bryant

The money reimbursed would be nice, but I am doing this more for the principle of bringing down somebody (or more) who is scamming many.
