Primerica ripoff fraud scam Riverside California
Primerica NOT SO OBVIOUS RIP-OFF!!! WATCH OUT!!!! YOU MIGHT NOT CATCH IT UNTIL YOU PAY THE $199.00 Riverside California .....
I went to a meeting at Primerica today. I was briefly interviewed (very briefly). The interview didn't last more than 5 minutes. I brought in a resume, and the guy just skimmed over it....really didn't care. Then he said he was recommending me to a bigger meeting where they would select who they were going to hire, and who they weren't.
I was needless to say excited, but near the end of the group interview, I was told there was going to be a $199.00 fee just to start, but it would be refunded. What they won't tell you is that it's only refunded after you take the 52 hour course, which takes 120 days!!!!! I asked about pay and benefits, and was told the pay would be based on what position I was going to be placed in ......
but they had no idea where they were going to put me either!!! I wasn't even given a ballpark figure as to how much I was going to get paid!!! The truth is that they recommend EVERYONE to these group interviews. No one is really selected out.....everyone is told that they were going to get a big fancy recommendation. AND THEY BASE YOUR JOB ON A LEVEL OF INTEREST!!!
I was given a piece of paper, and was told to cirle my level of interest from 1 to 10. If you circle 10, you get the job....if you circle any less, they really dont want you. I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH!!!!!! DO NOT FALL FOR THIS!!! THIS IS JUST A STREAMLINE COMPANY!!! They recruit all these people who seriously want jobs, and give them this fancy shmancy line, and you're in. DO NOT DO IT!!!! JUST WALK OUT!!!!!
There are other options however if you do accidentally sign and authorize the charge. Call up the credit card company and tell them it's a scam!!! WHICH IT IS!!!! They'll give you a temporary credit, and research this. But make sure you tell your credit card company about this site. Be smart, and walk out.

THE COMPANY IS LOCATED AT 9496 MAGNOLIA AVENUE IN RIVERSIDE CALIFORNIA. I POSTED MY RESUME ON THE UNEMPLOYMENT OFFICE WEBSITE.
THIS IS HOW THEY REEL YOU IN!!!!! PEOPLE WHO ARE DESPERATE FOR JOBS, AND WILL TAKE ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING WILL GET CAUGHT IN THIS, AND WONT BE ABLE TO GET OUT.
DO NOT RETURN THEIR CALLS!!!
THE TRUTH IS, THERE IS NO OFFICE JOB OR DESK JOB.
YOU GET THE LICENSE, AND YOU BASICALLY WORK FOR YOURSELF.....
AND THEY WONT TELL YOU IT'S STRICTLY ON COMMISSION!!!!
THERE ARE NO BASE PAY RATES.
THEY WONT TELL YOU THIS UNTIL YOUR 3RD OR 4TH MEETING.
ANOTHER THING THAT IS ALSO TRUE.....THEY PLANT PEOPLE AT THOSE MEETINGS TO LOOK LIKE THEY'RE APPLYING FOR THE JOB TOO.....BUT THEY'RE FROM THE COMPANY.
THEY SEND THEM OUT THERE AND PRETEND TO BE LOOKING FOR WORK. THE SPEAKER ASKS THEM ALL THE QUESTIONS, AND THEY'RE TOLD WHAT TO SAY.
BUT IF YOU DO GO TO THIS MEETING, AND THEY ASK YOU FOR THE 199.00, TELL THEM, "THIS IS PUTTING ME INTO DEBT!
I THOUGHT YOUR COMPANY WORKED TO GET PEOPLE OUT OF DEBT, AND YOU WANT ME TO PAY 199.00!!!" THEY WONT HAVE AN ANSWER FOR THAT.
THESE SLICK YOUNG PUNKS THEY HIRE WILL REEL YOU IN....
TRUST ME. IT'S ALL A LOT OF SWEET TALK....THEY'LL TELL YOU THEY HAVE KIDS, AND THEY ONLY WORK 2 DAYS A WEEK AND MAKE 3 GRAND A MONTH......COMPLETE BULL.
