Take her to small claims. You'll win, she's been there before.

Yeah, that does suck to get played like that for your money. I hope theres a way to get it back. But i know four people who used to work at A New Concept. They have quit long ago, and even told me that it was a scam, which was why they quit. The boss or owner of A New Concept is a female and her boyfriend who is I hear, a criminal. I hear they use people's information stealing their identities.One day they even came to my school insisting people to sign up for a free photoshoot. They are scams and stealing people's money. A New Concept should get shut down!!

In regard to Shiry's posting and her husband Steve's posting (Report 249419), all clients who sign a contract at A New Concept are given three days to cancel if they send a certified letter to our company. We received a letter from Shiry that was dated more then a week after her three day right of recission. The Administrator called Shiry and explained that she was out of her cancellation period. A few weeks later, her husband Steve pushed his way through our front entrance door at approximately 8:40 p.m. The office was closed, front lights were out, but a few employees were doing their paperwork. He told everyone he had an appointment with the Administrator and was not leaving. After two employees told him we were closed, he refused to leave. They had no choice but to call security at the building. Steve began threatening and frightening employees and was asked to leave again. He finally left, but showed up a few days later with flyers that contained false accusations about our company. He taped them to the walls and elevators. The Director called him after that incident and told him that she would have to get a restraining order against him because he was on private property. He is continuining to harass our staff, clients and place flyers on the property. Raina Office Manager A New Concept Modeling & Acting Centre' San Diego, CA
