Studio 58 Models, TCT, Options Ex employee tells ALL cheated employees and screwed the customers even more Orlando Florida

Although I continue to post occasional responses here, I quit doing extensive research a few months back. It became mentally draining. A few days ago, I took up where I left off. Where do I begin? Okay, here goes:



Since Ray has made mention of Alec, I'll start w/ him.



Alec Defrawy is Ayman A. El-Difrawi, son of Rafiah Kashmiri. I believe Mr. Kashmiri recently stepped down from the TCT Board of Directors. In 1995, Alec pled guilty to a criminal charge of conspiracy to commit bank fraud and wire fraud. He also uses the name Brian Anderson, depending on who he is dealing with at the time.



The other inidividual who was involved in the same conspiracy charge is David Elliot. He was recently dismissed from TCT, but has been rehired and apparently is working out of the Edge Talent office. He is supposedly an arrogant individual. I actually sat in on a conference call initiated by him from Florida. He gave us some hype about one of us getting a $1000.00 bonus, if we brought in the most individuals to the following Saturday 'open call'. After the call, I told my Executive Manager that I failed to catch the gentleman's name who had just been speaking to us (approximately 15 Model Scouts in the room). He looked uncomfortable and a little irritated that I had put him on the spot. He didn't even know the man's name. One of the Scouts said, "I think it's Elliot something". Of course, it turned out to be Dave Elliot. No one ever made mention of who won the bonus. According to someone on this website, the bonuses never come to fruition.



Next, I want to address the BBB thing. I had posted before about having reported Options/TCT to the BBB. I frequently check the San Diego area BBB info. Before I complained, there were three complaints indicated for that area office. The number has never changed, so the information is obviously inaccurate. Okay Ed, go ahead and say, "I told you so".



Rumor has it, Edge Talent is failing miserably. They never really got their feet off the ground.

Shall we get out the violins?



More news--TCT has been up to no good on Google. If you do web searches under the name Trans Continental, there are tons of glamorous cover up websites talking up TCT. They are causing the negative ones to be difficult to locate. I have still managed to find a considerable amount of beneficial and factual info searching under the name 'Options Talent' though. They are also creating 'look alike' websites to confuse the public.



Last, and this is important. Any of us who discovered TCT through Monsters.com need to report our negative experiences to Monsters. I have written them twice and will do so again. My sources indicate they are starting to listen to our grievances, but we must keep the communication flowing.



Don't want to overload everyone all at once with too much information, so I will end w/ this...



Keep the faith. It may seem like nothing is being done, but...(wink).
