To whom it may concern:

The company is running a scam, boiler room, telemarketing organization for Auto Warranty.  You don't even know who you work for until you receive your pay check, after two weeks.  You never mention Local Klout, the name of their company, in your telephone presentation.  Your script says that you are calling from "The Auto Processing Department."  If the consumer askes further, the script says to say you work for " The Vehicle Protection Center.  There is a company called Vehicle Protection Center, with 18 Rip-off reports, selling auto warranty, but I don't think it is this company.  In any event, it is pretty scammy.

In a telephone interview with Noman, I was informed that one could make $15.00 to $25.00 per hour in salary and commission.  After just a few weeks, I could see that this simply was not true.  The most you could make is about $11.00 per hour, and that is with a start time of 7:00 am daily, and 4 hours every other Saturday.

There are cameras everywhere, the employeee turn over is constant, and there is no way to verify your commissions.  The leads you create are "Sold" by employees who work from remote locations.  They run a very "Slick" operation.  In fact the other owner, whom I never met, but I'm sure was watching me from a remote location, goes by the name "Slick" on the closer of record in the computer.

Bottom line, I'm a solid telephonic seller, work hard and expect to be paid for what I do.  These guys will "Work" anyone.  The whole place runs on pot and cocaine, the regulars are a bunch of hopped up drug addicts and alcoholics - openers and closers.  They call the same list over and over and over again and insult the public to an ungodly degree.  This is not telemarketing, it is teleharassment!

If you are thinking about working for them, don't.  They have been doing this, evidently for 10 years, under different names. They have this scam down.  You will be financially raped and will become a drug addict, alcoholic loser like most of the other working there.  

The job was misrepresented, the manager Noman is a liar and a sellout from Pakistan, the owner Cody is a smug rich punk, and "Slick" is obviouslly a royal a*****e and he can eat my shorts!  The three together are big time con artists.  Avoid them like the plague for employment.  And sue their balls off if you have beeen victimized by them in their scam warranty scheme.

Regards,
