I went to the HPSO website to check it out and it was lagitamate but the insurance was only $40 (NOT the $90 Troy wanted me to send him.) Then I called and left him a message that I had paid the insurance myself and that it was $40 verses the $90 he quoted and decided to wait on the business cards since I was a little suspicious.
Troy had said in our first conversation that "I could call anytime if I had questions, and also if I just wanted to talk." This seemed to be questionable as to this being a professional business when things became suspecious to me. I have not been able to reach this Troy person since I sent him my information; past addresses, SS#, a photo of myself, my resume and the $65 dollars via Paypal.
I really believe this is a scam since those now certified phlebotomist like me can not get hired with out a years experience are desperate for any phlebotomy job.

I do also have a problem with the "Laboratory Services of Santa Barbara" Troy Kindred. I did pay the $65 background fee and also the 89 for the insurance. Yes, I really do believe he is stealing money from people.
I would like to get together with a few other people and continue to pursue this and get my money back.
I do have emails from him and ofcourse like the others have said, he cannot be contacted. He is a scam artist. He also tends to flirt alot and wants you to send pictures of yourself. Ofcourse I didn't do it. It seems a little to good to be true.
This is the first time this has happened to me. I am a single mother of 2 and am really struggling financially, and feel that i was taken advantage of.

I applied and paid for the background check since the owner, Troy, told me he would refund the background check whether I got the job or not.
Anyhow, Proceed with caution if this is a company you think you want to work for.

Calls are returned in the order they are received.
Kindred spirits is who the PayPal account is under. No reason to change it.
Background check amount is refunded if something erroneous comes back on it. Or if the person changes their mind before it goes through.
HPSO.com insurance runs about $86 dollars a year so contractors are told $90. They just started a special for 50% off the first year ($45). You may have to tell them you work X amount of hours to get it.
The funds for Insurance are sent to HPSO not to our company. We dont ask that they are sent to us.
Funds saved by Contractors covering their own background will go into marketing for work for those same contractors.
Breakdown of $65
$30 to ACCUFAX-US.COM - for every 100 sent in we will receive a 10% discount so it takes time to hit the 100 mark.
$35 to Random drug screen to be ran by our company or LabCorp - who we have a contract with.
Please contact me if you are qualified and interested in being a part of this new venture.
