This place is a total rip off. He doesn't pay his employees on time he post dates every check because he really doesn't have any money. He also cons ppl into paying for back ground checks that don't exist. and if you are hired he violates all employee confidentiality he keeps employees files out in the open vulnerable for others to steal your identity. He lives in his office because he cant afford anything. You pay and he never finds you a job. He will take your money and make you take a class for a guard card and never sends your info to the state, he will just say he did and blame it on the state or it got lost or what ever he can come up with to take your money.  


IF YOU SEE THIS COMPANY RUN THE OTHER WAY CAPTAIN MCCARTHY  IS A SCAM ARTIST!!!!!!!

I met Cpt. McCarthy his company is now called "platoon" he sceduled people he had allegedly charged $25-50.00 for a "shirt" to work at his company, I would be suspicious of an employer charging a fee to place you at a job. There was so many complaints and reports of Cpt. McCarthy that I have reported it to the City of Los Angeles attorney's office for further investigation.

Platoon Staffing owner Michael McCarthy Fraud

AUTHOR: israfel78 - ()

POSTED: Saturday, May 04, 2013

I also fell victim of this person my family and I are struggling financially so I took a flyer posted at a worksource center and my wife got a call from "Captain McCarthy" stating for me to show up and that I will be consider my self hire right away.

I am already guard carded and I got my guard Card by a legit school that made us test and we had to get 100% so he can not say anything about me been dumb because he did not guard card me, I showed up and work for him two days, paid $35.00 for background check with money my family did not really have, but as I was promise lots of work we made the sacrifice.  I worked for him back in March 2013 and is now May 4, 2013 and I have not gotten paid.  He has given us the run arround and now I called his cell today and all I got was that his number was disconected.  We are going to file a BBB report and also to labor comission and we are also looking for way to find more people to back us up and definately we are reporting this to the BSIS he has gotten away with too much already and my family is suffering financially and he can't even pay me the 2 days I worked for him.  And check this out when I wasted my time to go to L.A. to pick up my pay check which by the way I did not get and still have not gotten pay, the secretary comes out while I was waiting and told me that the first day is alway for training, meaning they only wanted to pay me for one day and wanted free labor and pass it on as "training" Justice will prevaile we have already started a chain reaction and for sure something will be done.

Lets find ways to contact eachother and have this person be broght to justice!

POSTED: Wednesday, April 24, 2013

Good Day, I am the owner of Langner Security,   We once employed McCarthy as a manager,  CLEARLY He is no longer with us,  As a company we are going to just say that he has moved on. If you would like to talk to me about the Issue I will  go into it with you or any other person. My contact number is 562 842 4584,   If you wish to contact BSIS the licensing Department with Consumer Affairs you can call 916-322-4000 they will send you case to El Monte Fred Fields will more than likely be the Investigator Nice Guy,   Per my last conversation with Fred Fields there are way to many case for his office alone.   El Monte number directly is 626 444-4068,      If you wish to see how of the mark this guy is you can read how he has blasted me personally on rip of report http://www.ripoffreport.com/security-services/se/se-jay-burke-pi-ripping-off-80c82.htm,   (good for a laugh just for fun do the math)   As far as Langner Security we are still Langner Security and have not changed our name or our phone numbers,   If my firm can help you in any way please reach out to me if you have not received your guard card by now also please reach out to me I will help.      As far as you getting what ever percentage you earned what kills me is he admits to only giving you a 99 % the state of California says you must pass with a full 100% just say'n.     I would like to think that any person holding a PPO would not allow this to occur, so my recommendation would be to call the License Holder,  (they all cant be as blind or as dumb as I was)   He is also now not only Millennium Security but MPP and some other company,  his new phone number that he has been texting me off of is 626-586-6650.     One just has to think who charges employee's in times like this for a Job where in this industry we all need as many good people as we can get.   If I could be of any more help please Call me.....      562 842 4584   Thanks again William Bramble PPO 15563,

AUTHOR: LuisM825 - ()

POSTED: Wednesday, April 24, 2013

Ugh duh I'm retarded and have no grammar and i can barely spell :) duh... Lol oh wait that's not me! It's Michael McCarthy! Lmfao look I asked for an apology I said ill let you keep the money you ripped off for a simple I'm sorry. He couldn't even do that! How's sad that he never learned to be a man. Truth is he never tested me like he should have. He gave me a sheet with all the answers and gave me a sheet to fill in, this alone can get your license revoked because people who may not be qualified are helped by letting them cheat there way through. The live scan was turned in I had to call and ask for my ATI because McCarthy lost my paperwork and needed it so he can file and pretend it got lost in the mail, furthermore I have overwhelming evidence again McCarthy (voice call recordings and texts) admitting to everything I'm complaining about then a feeble voice call saying he's doing his best and that BC4 went under cause of this and he's just "the fall guy" lmfao dude big companies pick the smartest gullible person to be the fall guy, not illiterate asses who can't be men. :p in the words of Eric Carmen. "Nah nuh nah nuh nah nuh, ha ha ha ha ha ha" dude he is the real knee slapper

global

/'glob?l/ Adjective Of or relating to the whole world; worldwide: "global economy". Of or relating to the entire earth as a planet: "global environmental change". Synonyms overall - universal - worldwide

Lmfao! Dude when I said global I meant this up hear ^ lol I didn't think I actually had to specify that to you seeing as a child of 4 can grasp this concept!

This person fell a sleep during his class and scored 77 on the test. This test is open book.
took the test again with the class helping him with the answers and scored 78 when we said B he put D and funny part was it was only A and B choice. Finely after 6 attempts in the special needs class he got 99%. Now heres the funny part he never turned in his paperwork. so had call the live scan people to get his ATI number to processes his paperwork. The live scanner thought it was odd that Martinez gave him a urine sample. (Dude this finger print machine not urine tester now go wash your hands.)

So now we finely processed his guard card.

So I get a text from him and it saids the following-

(this has gone GLOBAL Ive gotten 67 likes  on a blog about your fraudulent activity and thats just in California)

OK stupid Global is one million or better. your global was the back yard.
you telling the world I'm a fraud when have no idea what the hell your talking.

While you're callin other people losers you sleep on a couch in your office lmfao to rope it off you got ur girl and her kids there too with NO shower that's child neglect if you ask a social worker. Oh and it's god send. Not god sent that's very ignorant of you to say but than again it is you. So now that this argument has gone web and frankly national ;p how's about you tell me where my 90 day refund is McCarthy? Ya know that same refus for 169 that your website promises if you remain unemployed. I have a screen shot of it if you'd like to check my tumblr or twitter or Facebook and Instagram. I've blogged about your company on all of them posted all ur rude insulting texts posted pictures of you and everything even those voice recordings of you yelling at me saying you don't give refunds then hanging up. Hmmm... I wonder... How much damage do you think I can do if I report this to the local news? Ya know that segment where they go to businesses with cameras and reporters asking why they've ripped off the citizens they should be helping in a bad economy? :) that's next. I'm just waiting to hear what you tell my friends at the better business bureau. :) ironically enough I don't think you'll be business professional. That's okay though. I was raised to have nerves of steel and I can wait you out an destroy you one day at a time making sure you NEVER rip off another human being ever again you're greedy and shameful 300 ppl to work while you've ripped off just as much. See I've been getting emails from people who have the same complaints I have had. I requested they report you too. It was a mass email to 65 people and that was just by noon. Imagine my surprise when I seen my email box full with 458 personal emails from people all other so cal saying you did the same thing to them! Shame on you McCarthy your mom would be disappointed that she tried so hard to raise you from a lower middle class home and tried her best only to have you become this... Oh btw I background searched you. Lol :D TAH DUH! See you don't need to be a private investigator to do nifty things. Lol ya just gotta know how to play the game.

AUTHOR: LuisM825 - ()

POSTED: Monday, April 22, 2013

Langner Security as well as an associate of theirs "BC4" or what ever they are calling themselves this week do in fact do damage if their able to. It pays to do research on a company before you actually sign with them. If the original poster of this is interested contact me and any one who's been scammed ripped off or used over all by any of the following companies wishes to contact me I welcome it because you can be vital to making sure these people never do something like this ever again. BC4" (or any veriation there of) "Millennium Security Inc" (or any veriation there of) "Langner security" (or any veriation there of) "pacific security" (also known as BC4) "New Castle Security and Investigations" (also known as BC4) "BackUpCode4" (Also Known As BC4) Please figure a way out to contact me.

As for the supposed "90 day refund" McCarthy offers I have a voice recording and text from him stating that he doesn't offer a 90 day refund at all. He also says he has never stated anything like that and that if he has it was because he was forced to because he was "the fall guy" btw McCarthy posted as a consumer when he should have posted as owner because when I met him he swore he was the owner of BC4 or what ever they're calling themselves now... At any rate again if you've been scammed by these companies aforementioned please make the effort to rebuttal stating so or contact me ASAP you can be vital to making sure no one else goes through all the bad they've out you through and you'll help shut their doors for good. Contact the better business bureau san diego office for further assistance if you'd like.

My name is Capt. McCarthy I have a open door policy You can come to my office at any time. My company has been open for 3 years I have put over 1800 people to work. I have proof of this and can be view at anytime. The person that has wrote this is a idiot he/she can get a refund in 90 days if we don't get you placed. This is in writing everyone gets a copy of this.

The only thing is most don't want to wait 90 days because they are losers The person that is writing this sounds like they have worked in the office. and was laid off due to poor work habits. as for living in the office this is a 24 hour dispatch and yes 90 percent of the time I am working 20 hours a day trying to put people to work while everyone else goes home. As for Confidentiality there no one looks at employee files except the office staff and yes they are out at times so we can view them so we can find the best position for the employee. What is funny that the person has no guts to put their name to this report.  

My Name I Capt. M.J. McCarthy 626-262-6102
