To start off i serach on craigs and find a Job for janitorial services, So i send my Resume, the next day i recieve a phone

call from a young female saying to please come in for an interview with your resume and 100 dollars and that the job was

paying 18 dollars an hour. So i go there at GPC INC 10 east 39th street 10016 between 5th and madison avenue and greeted by this guy call Mr Marra, tells me to sit down and asks for my resume. 

he looks at it for 30 seconds and then asks me why should i hire you? Then im all excited thinking im gonna get this job

paying 18 bucks and hour, so i tell all the reasons why he should hire me, then he says your hired! shook my hand and then 

asked me for the hundred dollars so i inocently gave it to him and then he said it was for the OSHA 10 hour general class

 40 dollars and the application fee 60 dollars, I looked at the paper that i was about to sign and it said 499 dollar OSHA

10 hour Genaral i was like WOW thats a lot of money, he said to come back later with the rest of the money if i wanted to 

get that OSHA course, So i was in a bit of trouble and started asking my self is this guy is legit? Well he just said i was 

 hired and for sure i was gonna get paid 18 dollars an hour,

So i had to come back the next day and give him 439 dollars cash, all said and done after i gave it to him he gave me a piece of paper telling where to go for the OSHA test, So i went and got my certificate which was to my surprise a legit place and the teacher was a real OSHA instructor. So i did

everything what that guy Marra told me to do, then he told me to call him on monday to scheduale my suppose First day

at work i thought, So i call that monday and then he tells me to come a week later with my resume, 2 refrences, Shirt

and tie, at this point i was like WTF is going on, I thought i was hired and now he's telling me to do this all over again?

So i go back like he said again a week later and see him for a breif moment and tells me to meet this lady a few doors

down the hall, i walk in sit down pissed off, she takes my resume, looks at it and tells me what to change and put in, I told

the lady whats going on here i thought i was hired??? she says, I dont get into what you and Mr Marra talked about im just

here to get you hired, Thats when i got reaL UPSET, she handed me a sheet of paper with 3 jobs postings and webites where

i can log in and leave my resume with that job site. I was so upset at this moment, i was like i can do this my self?

So i go back to Marras office and asked to clarify what was going on, and told him that i thought i was hired, he said

those words never come out of my mouth. I was so sad and upset thinking this freaken guy just took my money i didnt even

have! watch out for this scam artist hes looks convincing but he's a dam liar!!

I too went on craiglist sent my resume for porter on 3/20/2015 and recieved a call the sameday. I get a call from this woman named Ms Rivera and she tells me to bring my resume and $100.00 for osha training and then she tells me to come in for an interview on 3/21/2015 which is saturday I said ok I then go to GPC INC 10 east 39th street 10016 between 5th and madison avenue on the 12 Floor and I am greeted by this guy called Mr Marra, he tells me to sit down and asks for my resume and say's the samething he told other people why should I hire you? then I say what I had to say tells me your hired congradulations and shakes my hand and also asked me for $100.00 for the OSHA training hands me a piece of paper and it say's osha training $499.99 I said to myself that is way too much money he tells me can you come up with the money after he told me the job pays $19.00 an hour so I said yeah I then handed my $100.00 to him also innocently not knowing when I left out of the building I did not feel right so the training for the osha is on monday he was expecting me to bring the rest of the money. I go back to 10 east 39th street 10016 between 5th and madison avenue on the 12 floor as I am walking to the building he leaves me a voicemail telling me don't forget you have the training to attend. I go upstairs see this guy and I then told him sorry I can't do it he's like why not?. I said I changed my mind I want my $100.00 back he say's sorry there are no refunds I could of saved you a trip and told you this over the phone I told him I cannot spend money I don't have I am in need of money he then told me you have the reciept it's good for a year I said I don't want it. I want my money so I told him this is ridiculous he then tells me I will see what I can do where you don't have to pay me but it will be taken out of your check once you start working. I knew by this point that sob was lying. I notice when I told him I couldn't do it it was like he got upset because I didn't give him the rest of my money something in my stomach said don't do it this guy is really shady and a conartist BEWARE!!!!! someone needs to lock this guy up I have a feeling he scammed alot of people and that once he gets enough money he will get out of there and open a new office or rent anohter one somewhere else and go by a different name and repeat the process my mistake was I should of taken a picture of this guy and I will see if I can take a picture of him when I go back so I can post his face all over the internet so people will see him and aviod him it's like the other poster said money we don't even have so anyway a few day's later I call him up to ask him about what he said to see what he can do so I don't have to pay him but it will come out of my check etc... he answers the phone and he is acting like he never spoke to me in his life and was like did you go to the training? playing stupid I told him my name and then he was like oh yeah just pay the rest of the money for the training there is nothing I can do again I knew the sob was lying so I told him I am going to call the news people he was like yeah channel 7 abc news is the best one to call so anyway I hang up on him. I am glad I did not go with the rest of this bs scam and gave him the $439.00. I lost $100.00 and I am so disgusted I did. I did my research for the OSHA training it cost about $79.00 to take it so I was thinking wow he wanted to get more money from everyone TO: ANYONE OUT THERE THAT GETS A CALL FROM MS RIVERA THE BEST THING TO DO IS AVOID!!!! THIS SCAM I ALREADY CALLED 311 AND REPORTED THE ADDRESS HOPEFULLY THEY CAN CATCH THIS CREEP BEFORE HE GETS AWAY WITH ALL OF OUR MONEY AND EVERYONE ELSE'S I also contacted help me howard pix 11 news hopefully he will show that creeps face on TV.

To: any law inforcement please stop this scam conartits he is a crook.
