ab casting liers north hollywood, California
me and my freind we responded to AB Casting posted on craigelist that they have work for extra in movie, we pay total of $100. and they promissed in 2 days they have a job for us, they told us to call the hot line and we will have instruction where and how to go for that extra job, i called the hot line for more then a week and nothing, fimnely i called the office and they pass the phone from one to another and told me that they will call me to give me the info for the job, 2 days latter i call the office again and ask for that person that promissed to call they pass me again from one to another and they said that person left the co, i ask to talk to the person i give him the money , the answer was he left the co too, finely they hang up on me, i call american express to cancel the charge , they show american express a bad copy u hardly can see that the money will not be revers, we never singe any thing.
since then i met ppl on shooting set and find out that this company well known as crock with the boss the biger lier in hollywood, when BBB try to investigate them they never reply.

3 MOTH AFTER B.B.B. ASK AB CASTING TO RESPOND FINELEY THEY DID, FIRST THEY TRY TO FLIP ANOTHER SCAMING STORY, BUT AFTER I RESPONDED STRONGLY AGAINS THAT THEY LEFT ME A MESSAGE THAT THEY ARE SORRY AND THEY FIERED THE GIRL WHO RESPONSIBAL (ITS A LIE IT WAS A GUY THE ONE WHO LEFT THE MESSAGE) AND IF I BRING IN THE RESCIPT THEY PAY ME, I DID BUT THEY DIDN'T PAY,
I ALSO FIND OUT THE OWNER OF AB CASTING "JOSEPH GUINAN" HAVE A NEW SCAM CALLED "A1 MEDIA"
I AM NOT SURE WHAT HE IS DOING BUT IT LOOKS LIKE SCAMING INVESTOR IN MOVIES, SO BE WHER,

..and I have never heard of having to pay to work as an extra. They are supposed to pay YOU for working. Acutally..many jobs as an extra these days do not even pay..but you get a good meal out of it for standing around for 12 hours.
I suggest you get out of this town fast or you will be eaten alive.

Just HOW STUPID are you? Judging by your astounding command of the English language, not very. Why would you pay to be an exted. That SHOULD have been a red flag. I would suggest instead of tring to get into the movies, you enroll in a good English grammar class.
