Exquisite Management LLC Tony Banks, Laura Marlowe, Dayton Designz LLC This company scammed me New York, New York
This company promised to have an online modeling portfolio made up for me on their website exquisitemanagement.com to be able to market me to their clients for modeling gigs. They told me to send in photos of myself and a one time payment of $200 to pay their freelance web design comapny Dayton Designz to be able to make and set my portfolio up on the site. Now Laura Marlowe instructed me to send the payment to a personal prepaid card of the guy who runs Dayton Designz which sounded suspicious in the first place but i stupidly agreed.
I sent in the photos and the payment on October 23, 2012 and waited for a response through email or phone of when my portfolio would be up. A few days pass and no word so I continuosly called Tony Banks the CEO of Exquisite Management and I also sent many emails to his assistant Laura Marlowe. I get a reply about two weeks later saying I needed more photos for my portfolio, so I send more in hoping to have it up within the next day or so. A week passes a nothing, these people don't answer their phones or emails, I even sent Tony Banks a facebook message asking whats the deal with my portfolio and still no response. And I tried googling the web design company Dayton Designz but found no information at all.
So I get suspicious and I contact moneygram and the credit card company of who I sent the payment to. I ask if I can get a refund since I got no services. They tell me there isn't much they could do so I still try to get ahold of Tony Banks. He finally decides to answer his phone on November 13, 2012 and very rudely tells me that the money was supposedly refunded and that he blacklisted me to all his clients. This was a shock since I never got an opportunity to even work for this company and since they are the ones who didnt fulfil their part of the deal. Whats worse is today I call Moneygram through where I sent the money and they tell me that no money has been refunded back to me. I have been scammed and blacklisted when I did nothing wrong. But I would just like my $200 back that I invested for services that I never recieved.
