Beware, before getting into business with these guys, I researched the name that he used to recruit me, Shaun Michael.  I did not realize I was dealing with Shaun Boylan and John LaRe.  

Quick version is I decided to publish the Movie Clips Magazine here in St Petersburg, Florida.  I sent Shaun the 1st $450 deposit and the 2nd deposit of $3640.  Prior to the 3rd deadline my brother suddenly passed away.  Due to my mother's health (she has Alzhiemer's) and the fact my brother was her primary caregiver, I had to temporarily reloacte back to Georgia to take care of her.  I emailed Shaun on May 27th and told him of the situation and told him I would like to refund the advertisers to maintain the goodwill with them and then recontract with them and go to print when I returrn to Florida.  Shaun disappeared (as he did with the other reports on here) and would not answer my calls.  

Thru email, he gave promise after promise that the refund would be processed... several times even saying it had been processed, look for it tomorrow. 34 days later, Shaun finally returned my call, explained how wonderful a buisnness man he was and promised I would have the refund by July 1st.  Today is July 6th and he has emailed a few excuses but still no wire.  

Guys please do your research before sending cash.  I have spoken to SEVERAL publishers who have been stiffed in similar situations.  Based on my plight, do not wire any funds that you are not prepared to lose.  I am pursuing criminal complaints based on the conversations on here about civil being a waste of time.  Hopefully, with the others that have posted on here, we can get together and show a pattern for Shaun and his companies.

New Name, Same Scheme Hollywood Savings Magazine

AUTHOR: - ()

POSTED: Friday, September 23, 2016

Just heard the new "scheme" is called Hollywood Savings Magazine.  Shawn Michael, or whatever name he is using now, along with John LaRe have "rebranded" the company in order to hide from all of the publishers and advertisers they have screwed.  Guys please do your research before sending them a dime.  It will not end well...
