HITS NY scammed innocent people into believing that, for $5,000-$7,500 they were going to attend a 6 week training program to learn how to speak Korean, sing and dance in the style of Korean pop. The program was cancelled and those who signed up did not get their money back.

I would like my money back in full ASAP and if not, I'll pursue legal action. Among other things, they falsely advertised their services. The following is the False Advertising law from the NY Consumer Protection Agency. This is just one law they have broken:

The New York statute General Business Law section 350 seeks to protect consumers from companies' false advertising of goods and services. This law is used to attack the misrepresentations companies use in their advertising to lure consumers to purchase their product or service, for the consumer to discover only later that he/she was duped in the transaction. In the meantime, the consumer, having been induced into the purchase by relying on the advertising, may have gained little to no benefit from the service or product or worse, they stand in a worse position than before their purchase

HITSNY, LOIS CHUN UPDATE

AUTHOR: bblake - (United States of America)

POSTED: Wednesday, October 31, 2012

Lois Chun, principal in HITSNY the k-pop organization that turned out to be a scam, returned $200 of the $5,000 she owed me for the summer camp that never occurred and then she disappeared. What a sucker I was. ABC news NY exposed her organization as a scam (http://abclocal.go.com/wabc/story?section=news/7_on_your_side&id=8854009). What they didn't comment on are all the other poor people who were scammed by her for $5,000-$7,5000 not to mention the dance studio spaces she booked and scammed (one in Toronto, CA  is looking for her because she skipped out on something like a $20,000 bill). If you too were ripped off by Lois Chun, please step forward. You have nothing to fear. Her threats are all empty. She has since removed the HITSNY web page, her e-mail, phone number and is probably on the run back to Austin TX to scam more people through her catering company "Servd Catering." How people are allowed to get away with these sorts of things: internet fraud, stealing money from people under false pretenses and doing so over state lines is beyond me. But it's not over yet.

POSTED: Friday, August 17, 2012

My name is Mia Lerda and I would like to offer my support in your endeavor against Hitsny and specifically Lois Chun. I have been a witness and victim to the unprofessional behavior by that woman and her company staff . I've witnessed her take credit for other peoples work and art, tell kids to lie and steal concert tickets. I seen her promise concert tickets to children in return for grunt work. Ive also witnessed her tell kids to make fake facebook profiles to lure others into false situations and theivery,...shes done it all with saying she had permission by Korean Entertainment companies such as SBS, SM Entertainment, KBS and YG family and the korean produce association of new york. her unethical behavior has ruined friendships, caused internet bullying and drama and has lead unknowing families into trusting her. She has asked for money among websites and groups as well as facebook fan pages. She targets teenagers and preteens who do not know any better...ANd whenever she gets caught in this unprofessional behavior she deletes the evidence. Her recent kidnapping of a mbc documentary on a handicapped girl even is further proof on her stealing from people who cannot defend themselves. However please contact me if you need any help or letters of reference to any of these situations because this person needs to be stopped. I know 2 more teenagers whom she tried to borrow money from too. I hope you get your money back and I hope Lois Chun returns to the rock in Texas she came from! SHES A SNAKE and anyone who works with her should be forewarned on what type of thief and liar she is! Im sorry you believed in her.. im so sorry anyone did.
