I want to share my Horrible experience with a company know as "Trek Alliance." I was called by a woman who goes by the name Beth for an interview. She painetd this sceene of become weathly with a proven system. And that the company was worth 37 million. And would I be interested? Sounded good to me.

So, I put on my suit went to my interview. I arrived at the location, "Majestic Enterprises" which was in a pleasent location and not to difficult to find. I walk in an there are some 20-30 people sitting standing, all young and attritive. Music in the backround, people/ employees very bubblee, good looking women. I mean right off the bat I was saying this is neat.

Thus, my intrested carried on. I was meet by a man, Greg Schempp. He said he would be interviewing me. Now bare in mind I thought this was an interview?? So, anyway we talk and shoot the s**+* about everything and anything. Which, was to say differnt approach to an interview. Then all of the sudden the "Music" that would be similar to being played in an upscale saloon was turned off. We were asked to take a chair. And then "they" proceed with there presentation. That's right presentation. They go on to tell me about this company called Trek Alliance. WHO??

I am at Majestic Enterprises. But I sit there and listen to this. Watch the movie about how these people are making millions. They have my attention. And they proceed to talk about there products. Repeading saying that this is NOT A PYRMAID SCHAME!! Such as friendly cleaners, toothpaste, water purification systems, shampoo and conditioner and some dumb test with a light bulb.
And they then proceed to paint this picture on the white board of making MILLIONS. And how would you like to make 40% return on your money. I mean come on this sounded too good.

I was skeptical. They said all you have to do is by a $47.00 starter kit and the millions would be on there way. So, after the presentation they show me the "book" of what others are making. And there sucess stories. I start looking through the book and notice that the checks that are shown or supposedly copy of the actual checks have no routing numbers at the bottom. HUMMM..... But I said to myself maybe this is a good thing and they are saying that I have nothing to loose but a small 47 dollars for the starter kit. But you had to act today! And they told me that, ok for 295.00 Which they would completely refund if I was not intereseted for this Vegas Seminar. So, I say VEGAS?? Yes, we want YOU to go to Vegas with US in 10days to get "trained." So, I am under the impression that "they" are picking up the tab right??

Well so I thought. I will explain in a moment. So, I give them my card to run. They say, oh fill out this form and we will fax it in. I was not real keen on that. I said is there a better way. They say sure we can do it on the web site. So, I did. 295 bucks on my card.

Thinking its is refundable and that there is no problem and I have nothing to loose, Im going to vegas! I am going to make good money. Yet, how much speficly Im not sure. They said oh, at least 50K a year. And you should easily make a six figure income. They keep telling me that you don;t become a $37 Million dollar company for nothing. And have continue growth. So, I was more curious to know, what they knew and what was this magical system. I mean come on 37 million on these products, shampoo,water purification,vitimans, cleaning products, laundry detergent. What is there system. So, I figured I would go to vegas and find out. I mean I had nothing to loose but everything to gain right??

So, after the meeting with Majest Enterprise, that is really Trek Alliance I went home being a pretty excited guy. Or so I though. I started looking a document and business card that they gave me. AND let me tell you. I wanted to lean more about this new possible job and its company. So, i went to there website.

I do all this reading. And NO s**+* I see this picture of this girl. The same girl who interviewed me. But here name is not BETH it is Sally on the web site. I for some stange reason try to take a break not wanting to believe all of this. So, I check my email. And I have an email for a E-ticket. WHAT ? Thoese people used my own credit card without my consent to puchase the very same air line ticket that they said they would take care of. BAME! 236 smackers on the card in addtion to the 295. Thats almost 500 bucks. What the F** ?? I go crazy.

I go to the BBB and type in "search"-----Trek alliance. And there are over 300 entries of complaints of this company. I read on and on. And it is the same thing no matter what state you are in. I start telling my firend about this company. And she, immidently say Equinox? I go who? She says is that the name of this company? I said no. Its Trek Alliance. She then says do they have a web site. I say yes. She then say give it to me. She pulls up the site and says that she worked for this company 5 yrs ago going by the name Equinox. And she too see a picture of a woman on there site and say that girls name is not that. She proceese to tell me that they took here for 5,000 dolloar and 10 of here friends. I go 50,000 bucks. She said yes. She just keep saying to me stay the "Fuc*" away from those people they will screw your whole life up.

People I got lucky and missed the big scam. But be weary, of these people. They are total scammers. And the lady that called me beth is not really here real name. The products do not exist. Well they do but you will have to buy 2-4000 dollars worth. I could on and on. I just want other to know what could happen to them. I was lucky. And I was stupid. This is the most complicated scam I have ever seen. And I have seen them.

They have the perfect answer for everything. Good looking, sucessful people. Great atmosphere. But millions in 47 dollar starter kit and 500 later in investing with them to watch your money grow. BULLSH** The way they make there money is off you and the people you requite. Here you spend 300 buck that they say is refundable. But its not. And you get 10 more people. That 3,000. So if you have 5 new people and they all requite 10 people a peice that 50 people. $300 x 50=$15,000. Thats how they make there money. Do your homework. But from everything I saw, read and experienced. And put it all in on basket so to speak it all started to add up form what others had posted. ALSO, last if your read what others have said and look into these other compaines and there opperating names that they opperate under you will see that they have been indited for fraud and had to pay out monies.
Good luck

STOP! ..before you think about using the Better Business Bureau (BBB)... CLICK HERE to see how other consumers were victimized by the BBB's false or misleading information. Don't be fooled! It has been reported, when there are thousands of complaints and other investigations underway by authorities, the BBB has no choice but to finally give an UNsatisfactory rating to a BBB member business that is paying the BBB big membership fees every year. When a business is reported that is NOT a BBB member, BBB files WILL more likely show an UNsatisfactory rating, then reportedly shake down that company to become a member of the BBB. One positive thing about the BBB is, either way, if a business has an unsatisfactory rating with the BBB, you can be sure, the business is bad. But what about all those BBB member businesses that had complaints filed against them? Consumers never get to hear about them. What about the BBB advertising to the public? Is this a false and misleading perception they are giving about consumer confidence when dealing with a business? Click here to understand more of what consumers and business alike are saying about the BBB. You decide. ..Remember. The BBB membership is not earned, it's paid for!

I was looking for a modeling job and my mom phoned me about a number to call in the paper looking for actors and models. i called the number and i was advised that a representative would call me back.



A day later I was phoned by a woman not stating the name of the company and all she said was that she heard i was looking for a job and asked what i was interested in. I told her i was trying to get into modeling and she told me about an interview that week. i set up a time and the conversation ended.



When i arrived i told the lady at the front desk i was there about a modeling job. Most of the people in the waiting room with me were not very attractive which made me feel like I had a great shot because usually i feel like the most unattractive woman at modeling conventions.



I was called in by my interviewer Matt. He was about a year older than me and advised me that a guy i used to work with at a grocery store also worked for trek for some time.



I was introduced to a young woman that reminded me of a bobble head doll that you put on your car dash board. she wouldnt stand still and had this smile on her face that looked like some permenant plastic surgery .



Every one in the room looked that way! we were all advised to sit down and watch a video. Still i was thinking it was a modeling company and was not led to believe it was anything else. we sat and this movie came on about making money by selling a bunch of "child and Environmentally safe" crap. i got really mad when i realized what it was. I sat and listened to their garbage about how the person talking to us went to college and how that never got him any great job offers and how school was a waste of time and he wishes he would have found trek before he wasted his money on college. being a student myself this infuriated me.



Well, he continued to say that anyone who walks out at the end and doesnt sign up is stupid and should be ashamed of themselves for their stupidity. Well, i was ready to walk out right then. WEll, the speaker ended by telling us we had to by a 47 dollar starter kit and we also had to attend some convention for two nights and we paid for that too. we all got up and were advised to talk to our interviewer.



Well, i told Matt that i was not interested because i didnt even have enough money for my books or my tuition for school. He told me to borrow money from my parents or any one i could. i dont know how many times i told him no but he kept pushing like a quarter back on prom night. Finally he said " well take a look at our products, i noticed you have very lovely hair and think you would like shampoo." And he actually made me smell the shampoo.



I told him no for the 100th and final time after he had bobble head try to talk me into it too and i walked out the door. im glad i wasnt the only one. The funny thing about this is that my parents recieved a call for me about 1 month prior from a guy named Matt from some company trying to get me a job. Well, it was odd cause i lived with my grandparents at the time and had my own phone line. thats not even the end of it . a couple days after the hour of hell, i was called by a modeling company saying that i called for a job, and they WERE the ones that i called in the first place.



These people are belittling liars who act like The Stepford People.
