I put 2 of my daughters in their classes under an agreement that Shaun Michael and his "company" would train them and get them started in the modeling industry.  There is a $475 (or there about) fee for the classes.  He also tells you that you will need photos in order to get casting calls.  We had photos taken, edited and shown to him but he said that they were not good enough and we would need to use his photographer for a fee which we did not agree too.



His website continuously went down and is no longer available.  There are no phone numbers that we had that work any longer.  We showed up for a class one Sunday and he or his crew never showed up.  We later found them at another hotel giving classes in Riverside.  He was there for about 4 weeks than vanished again.  This was all back in 2008.  I now see that he moved to Ontario.



I did file a BBB report on him for which he responded to only stating that he gave us a 2 for 1 deal on the modeling classes.  I prooved him wrong showing the bill for the full amount for 2 kids being in his class.  I questioned his address, phone number and website for which he did not comment on.  I have found a few of his "employess:" only on my space so far.  Please feel free to look around and post links aswell.  I did run into one of his "employees" at the new Stater Bros in Fontana on Jurupa and Sierra, and Im sure they all live in the area.  Ill attempt to post photos if possible.



Maritza Melchor -myspace link (not been on since 2008)  Also look under her friends list at (Liz) another member of his employees.

1) This company does not even own an actual bus. They tell all their customers that the "bus broke down" or is "stuck somewhere" and then they pick them up with a car

2) Drivers are ALWAYS late --- ours was 2 hours late and claimed he was stuck in traffic. We checked on google maps and ALL the routes were green. (this was Saturday at 9am! us there ever traffic then?)

3) Driver made an unauthorized stop at convenient store to stock up on coffee and red bull --clearly he just woke up late or partied too hard the night before and wasn't really late cuz of 'traffic'.

3) Food/drinks are supposed to be provided but driver showed up with 2 bottles of water and OJ and stated "oh I wasn't given anything else"

4) Driver DID NOT KNOW HOW TO GET TO VEGAS FROM LOS ANGELES and asked us to bring our GPS!!! wtf?!?!

5) On our way  BACK from Vegas, they tried to books us on Amtrak and Greyhouse and told us we need to find a way to get to the station. ummm wtf????

6) The manager (Shaun?) said he would reimburse us and send is some free vacation vouchers that day. Uhhhhhh hello where are they??? And the apology letter? Clearly someone needs to learn how to run a business

7) This company is under his lovers name Roman Espinoza, but he is the real owner he figured that he would get away with it if he used his lovers name this is how he is getting away with ripping people off!! Shaun is a criminal - car theft - look at his records.

This company should be sued.
