My name is Anonymous Rex an alias.  I am using an alias because, as a Consultant, outing a former client for Fraud online isn't the best public relations or referral for future business.  I can assure you that everything written below is factual, truthful and documented.

I was hired as an Outside Consultant, aka Independent Contractor, by Moumouni Sere aka Mouni Sere CEO and Founder of ms2k Career Management a Recruitment and Staffing Company for the Hospitality and Health Care Industries located in Queens, NY.  The company, founded and incorporated in March 2006, recruits and places candidates through the H2B and J-1 Visa programs.

Mr Sere is a one man operation working from his home. He hired me to work from my home with the intention of helping him grow the business to the point where additional staff would be hired and outside office space would be secured.

My hiring was done online and over the phone as Mr Sere had responded to a Situation Wanted ad I had posted online.

A 30 day contact was mutually signed, copies faxed back and forth, calling for me to earn "X" dollars per hour for a documented 35 hours per week of work.  Payment to be made by check twice a month commencing Wednesday of the Third week and every two weeks thereafter.

When Wednesday of  the Third week arrived payment was not forthcoming. Mr Sere agreed to meet me on a Saturday in person, to give me my check, midpoint between our residences. This was the first and only time I've had any personal contact with him.  The company check I received was for less than 10% of my first two weeks earnings.

Mr Sere promised that by Week Five the company would have the funds to pay me my back earnings for weeks one and two plus pay me my current earnings for weeks three and four as certain expected payments to the company would be forthcoming.

At the end of the workday on the Friday of week Four I reminded Mr Sere that he would have to pay me four weeks earnings the following Wednesday.  He said the company had no money to pay me.  He said that certain expected payments had not been received.  He said he didn't think he could pay me as contractually agreed.  He said he couldn't pay me on the next Wednesday or even knew when he would be able to pay me after that date. He said he'd have updated news about paying me over the weekend and that he'd call me to discuss the matter by Sunday night.

No weekend call to me was ever made.  I told him verbally over the phone and reconfirmed the conversation via e-mail Monday morning of Week Five that I was resigning retroactive to the previous Friday and that I expected the balance of my four weeks payment by 1pm on that Wednesday. I told him he had Breached the Contract by not paying me as agreed.

Mr Sere told me he couldn't pay me and then claimed payment was conditional on certain objectives having been met.  When I pointed out that the Employment Contract clearly states payment is "X" dollars per hour for a 35 hour week with no conditions attached he got silent and then hung up the phone.

Clearly Mr Sere has no intention of ever paying me for the four weeks and 140 hours worth of services rendered.  Clearly Mr Sere has no intention of honoring a Written Contract.

ms2kCareer Management has been in business for more than 5 years.  Am I to believe that the company has no money to meet Payroll?  I believe that Mr Sere knowingly hired me with the intent of not paying me in full.  I believe Mr Sere is deliberately and systematically funneling money out of his company and into his personal or family bank accounts so that he can "legitimately" claim that his company has no money to pay me.

Makes you wonder who else he has stiffed!

UPDATE: Moumouni (Mouni) Sere, ms2k Career management, ms2k Jobs

AUTHOR: ANONYMOUS REX - (USA)

POSTED: Sunday, October 02, 2011

Moumouni (Mouni) Sere cumulatively owes creditors more than $25,000 for services rendered but never paid.  The list includes me as a Judgment-Creditor, his Residential Landlord, his Cell Phone Company, his Web Host Company, his gas, electric and landline phone companies, his car leasing company, his credit card companies.

I'm sure there are additional creditors that I am curently unaware of.

Legally, based on my NYC Civil Court Judgment, Sere is a Fugitive-Debtor.

Certain he will resurface in the future under a new company name and possibly using an assumed ID

ms2k jobs, ms2k career mgmt, Moumouni (Mouni sere) GUILTY of BREACH of CONTRACT

AUTHOR: ANONYMOUS REX - (USA)

POSTED: Friday, August 19, 2011

After a 4 month wait for  trial in Queens County NY Civil Court ms2k jobs, ms2k career management, Moumouni Sere aka Mouni Sere (Founder and CEO) were found GUILTY of BREACH of CONTRACT.

Officially they are JUDGEMENT-DEBTORS.  Judgement is good for 20 years.

Mr Sere had 4 months to voluntarily resolve the matter and abide by the terms of a Contract he authored and co-signed.  It was not surprising that he failing to appear in Court last night to defend himself and his company.

I fully expect the need to engage the Court's full resources in order to execute the judgement.

WARNING to ALL EMPLOYERS and JOB SEEKERS:

ms2k jobs, ms2k career management, Moumouni Sere aka Mouni Sere are all JUDGEMENT-DEBTORS having been found GUILTY of BREACH of CONTRACT.

Conduct business with them under their current names or similarly sounding names in the future AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Would YOU as an INDIVIDUAL or BUSINESS transact with an INDIVIDUAL and COMPANY that VIOLATES WRITTEN CONTACTS, fails to appear in court to defend themselves and is found GUILTY of BREACH of CONTRACT?

Ask yourself these questions before proceeding.

Moumouni (Mouni) Sere and his company ms2k Career Management CONTINUE to IGNORE the TERMS of a LEGALLY BINDING CONTRACT

AUTHOR: ANONYMOUS REX - (USA)

POSTED: Monday, July 18, 2011

Due to NYC Court budget cuts my Hearing Date is still a few weeks in the future.

Moumouni (Mouni) Sere and ms2k Career Management continue to REFUSE TO ABIDE BY THE TERMS OF A LEGALLY BINDING CONTRACT mutually signed by both of us in March 2011.

All attempts to reach Moumouni (Mouni) Sere and ms2k Career Management meet with ignored e-mails and phone hang ups.

He and his company are still in business and CLEARLY INTEND TO CONTINUE TO DEFRAUD ME out of 4 weeks of earnings for services performed as stated in the signed Contract.

ms2k Career Management UPDATE!

AUTHOR: ANONYMOUS REX - (USA)

POSTED: Wednesday, June 08, 2011

Today is June 8.  Called Mr Sere and asked him, "Where is my money?".  He immediately hung up.

It is 80 days since a legally binding contract signed by Mr Sere commenced.  It is 63 days since the contract was breached by Mr Sere for the first time.  It is 49 days since the contract was breached by Mr Sere for the second time.

Clearly THESE ARE NOT THE ACTIONS of an INDIVIDUAL or COMPANY INTENT ON ABIDING BY THE CONDITIONS LISTED IN A LEGALLY BINDING CONTRACT.

I look forward to winning a NYC Civil Court Judgement against Mr Sere and ms2k Career Management for Breach of Contract.  I look forward to having that Judgment executed as I expect Mr Sere and ms2k Career Management to ignore the Judgment against them once issued.

EMPLOYERS and CANDIDATES BEWARE!!
Do not conduct business with any individual or company that does not abide by a legally binding signed contract.

JUNE 1, 2011 UPDATE -- ms2k Career Management and Moumouni (Mouni) Sere STILL REFUSE TO HONOR A WRITTEN CONTRACT

AUTHOR: ANONYMOUS REX - (USA)

POSTED: Wednesday, June 01, 2011
Today is June 1, 2011.  Court date still in the near future.

Moumouni (Mouni) Sere signed a legally binding Employment contract with me, as an Independent Contractor, a contract he created and enforceable under NYS Law, 73 days ago.  He breached the contract for the first time 56 days ago by failing to pay me on time and in full my first two weeks salary. He breached the contract for the second time 42 days ago by failing to pay me on time and in full my third and fourth weeks salary.  To date he has paid me less than 10% of our contracted agreement and that was 53 days ago.

I called Mr Sere today and asked him where was the rest of my money.  Received the now tired refrain: "The company has no money".  "I don't know when I can pay you". "As soon as I have the money I promise to pay you in full." etc, etc.

Can't wait for him to tell the same unbelievable story to the Court.  As if the Court will even remotely believe him.

A Contract is a contract.  Don't like the terms then don't sign. (Again, he wrote the contract!)

EMPLOYERS & CANDIDATES BEWARE!!

Mr Sere and his company ms2k Career Management do not honor written contracts.  You would have to be a fool as an Employer or paying Candidate to expect to get any level of professional  service from this man and his company.

If he won't honor a written contract with me he won't a written contract with you.

Moumouni Sere & ms2k Career management UPDATE

AUTHOR: ANONYMOUS REX - (USA)

POSTED: Saturday, May 14, 2011

It is now 7 days since Moumouni Sere and his company ms2k Career Management have been issued a Summons as co-defendants to appear in NYC Civil Court to answer my complaint of Breach of Contract.

It is now 55 days since the signed Contract commenced, 38 days since the first pay check was due in full per the terms of the Contract, 24 days since the second pay check was due in full per the terms of the Contract.

Have the defendants made any attempt to resolve their Breach of Contract?  NO

Do I expect the defendants to voluntarily resolve the matter satisfactorily prior to the Court date? NO

Do I expect the defendants to tell the Judge on the Court date which will be months after the Contract was signed that the company still has no money to pay me? YES

Do the defendants deserve the public scrutiny, embarrassment and humiliation of being outed as violators of a signed Contractual Agreement?  YOU BET!

Again, as an Employer or Job Candidate beware of any individual or company that does not honor signed contracts.

ms2k Career Management UPDATE

AUTHOR: ANONYMOUS REX - (United States of America)

POSTED: Wednesday, April 20, 2011

Area Code for Phone number is 646. Business owner called me today to offer me the opportunity to continue working with him.
Still claims he has no money to pay me anything towards what is owed for four weeks work.Still claims he doesn't know when he can pay me in full.Yet, he expects me to return to work FOR NO PAY for 35 hours a week and to trust him that one day he'll catch up and pay me what is owed when he can't pay me, so he claims, for 5 weeks ongoing.

He was shocked when I told him, "We're through. Just pay me what you owe so we both can close the book and move on in life."

I wasn't born a moron.
