Originally seen in a newspaper ad for extras casting, called star search casting. They told me that my card would be charged $99.70, and that not only could I have a refund within 30 days, but that once I got my first job as an extra, I would be written a check for $98 on the spot. They also said that I should be getting a few jobs within the first month.
After not getting any feedback from them for two weeks, I called to cancel. They put me on hold for hours, diconnected me, and gave me the run around until I finally gave up. Yes, it was a learning experience.
Now, after almost a year, they have charged my card $98 once again. This is a comepletely unauthorized charge. This little scam they have going is, I am sure, not their only one. When I called the phone number on my credit card statement, there are two "account" areas that your call can be directed to, then you get put on hold until you are eventually sent to voicemail.
Please avoid any casting companies that cast you over the phone. They are totally phony, fraudulent and they will rip you off big time!!
