Hey! I Saw Your Commercial // Mike Pointer Scam Artist, Liar, Manipulator Los Angeles California
Mike Pointer invited me to his free class. I was looking for a commercial class, so I signed up. The minute I did, he told me I would have to pay a $25 fee to reserve my spot, but it would be returned the week after or applied to my classes if I chose to take more. His "class" was him basically telling us all the amazing people he's coached and worked with and how they hire him long term and fly him places. There were wasn't a lot of diversity in the pictures, which is kind of weird cause he's a black dude. He kept talking about the "rat race" of the industry and how minorities who aren't cute or popular have a hard time. Someone asked him to explain and he said "Asians and Mexicans are in right now." Um... Okay. I'm a black guy, so I was kind of put off by that.
Then he kept talking about his faith and spirituality and God and that was annoying too. 2 hours had gone by and we hadn't learned anything. Then he showed us a list of places we shouldn't go and people we shouldn't talk to, and went on another rant about how only 5 or us will work once a year and all these agencies are rip-offs and badmouthing people he didn't agree with and how God was going to come back. LOL. Okay. by now I just wanted to get out, but he was trying to sell himself because he was running out of time. He asked the people who had paid the $25 deposit to sign their email addresses on a special piece of paper with our names and I thought it was to get a cool gift. Later I found out he charged all of us for the full amount of $217 twice in a month! When I asked him about it, he said that I signed up and that's why I gave my email address and that it wasn't his fault that I missed my class. I never went to one class, I just ran out of there, because he was making me so angry.
I got my bank to reverse the 2 charges and then last week, I saw another charge for $217!!! I closed my card and went there, but he wouldn't talk to me. After looking around, I see that a lot of people are getting smart about this scam artist and apparently he's illegal too. BEWARE of MIKE POINTER and BEWARE of HEY I SAW YOUR COMMERCIAL!

im sorry to inform you Mike Pointer of Hey I Saw Your Commercial but more people than just me see what a fraud and ripoff you are. I never wrote that first review but after you slung my name as an accusation in your rebuttal I've take the liberty to write a review of my own in this site. If I have something to say about you and your joke of a company I put my name on it! I have no reason to hide when saying the truth that you are a mean fraud and look at people as leads of sales instead of human beings. Happy Holidays, don't sling my name around or I'll always write the truth about you.

Mike Pointer, Owner and Founder of Hey, I Saw Your Commercial! here. As I check my records, I've never had a Calvin Bernard or whatever name this person used at my free class. I'm certain I know who this person is (Tim Chizmar) and he absolutely hates me. Something to do with my faith in God I"m sure of it. He has slandered me on many websites. He is not black either as he posted! In this day an age anyone can go on Yelp, Rip Off Reports or any type of social media and slander someone they hate. Even if they hate them because of their personal beliefs and faith.
The bottom line is this, anyone that want's to know about my program should come to a free class. I offer several of them a month. You can then check out the program for yourself!
Moving forward joyfully in Christ Jesus,
Mike Pointer, Founder
