Excel Personal Training Anthony Fazzino conned me into doing a consulting project for his company for which he took all of the credit, all of the money,and never paid my company for the countless hours of work I did. New York, New York

I was approached by Anthony Fazzino to help him put together a corporate wellness program at Baldor Food Company in the Bronx.  Anthony needed a Registered Dietitian (which I am) to put together a nutrition program for the Baldor Employees. I was hesitant at first because Anthony came off very unprofessional and unethical through his actions and behaviors that he displayed.  After meeting with Baldor I decided it could be a good consulting job to work on and Anthony promised me 50% of all profits that he billed to Baldor.

  For weeks I went to unpaid meetings at Baldor which took away time from my seeing patients.  Anthony kept promising me that all of this work would pay off because we would make so much money off this project.  He even mentioned to me that if Baldor didn't end up going through with the project once we put it together that he would pay me for all of the time I put into this for his company.  It took me weeks and countless hours of work to put together the pilot program for Baldor Food Company.

  When it came time for the pilot program I was out of town and Anthony assured me it would be fine if my intern taught the pilot classes I had put together since it was just an introduction to what we would be doing and to get people to sign up for it. Again, since I was out of town I emailed him all of the work I did and made sure to put my letter head on everything. My intern had also took the time to make a power point presentation to sum up my project. 

After the pilot program was over my intern gave me feedback about what happened. Turns out that Anthony had removed my letter head from my work and passed the whole project off as his own.  Not one person from his personal training company spoke or did anything for that matter.  My company created this whole entire project and he stole it and put his name on it.

 When I confronted Anthony about it he denied everything.  I told him after I was paid for my work on this project I did not want to affiliate myself with him any longer because his actions proved him to be immoral and unethical.  Needless to say, Anthony never paid me a single penny for all of the work I did for his company.  He billed Baldor Foods $3,000 for the work I did and stopped returning all of my phone calls, emails, and ignored every invoice I have ever sent him.  Now that is the definition of a con artist.
