BEWARE OF TBII

My boyfriend, who works in marine construction, had gone to TBI, a local West Palm Beach company (off Palm Beach Lakes Blvd.) who promised overseas work for big money. The owner, Barabara, or "Bobby" as she called herself, seemed genuine in person as she spoke of her grandchildren and false promises. She took >$300 cash up front and said she would put together a resume package to send off to companies and that he would receieve a copy of this in the mail shortly. Unfortunately, no package ever came. Also, he called and left messages every single day for 2 weeks and never heard back form her. He also went to the office on Thursdays & Fridays ("interview days") but no one was ever there.

It's been over a month now, and, of course, we have not heard anything from TBII. I am extremely livid that a seeming genuine peron could lie right to your face. I can only hope by me taking the time to write this that it will prevent others from being ripped off!!!

BBB ???

POSTED: Thursday, November 05, 2009

I saw the advertisement for TBII and was going to check it out, however i did look into the Rip Off Report..........good thing. It's pretty bad that someone would want to take your money with a deal like this. These economic times are bad and people are losing their HOMES! I would love to see a law passed that would make this a crime punishable by law. Enough said. The reason i wrote in is that Barbara Hoskins, the owner of TBII states that they are "A" rated with the BBB..........i can't find them on the BBB website and i did at one point find a link that says they are NOT accredited with the BBB. I wish i had written the link down, i will keep searching and i will post it.

 Barbara, if you truly want to prove you are in this to help people, prove it by waiving the fee until a candidate is hired...this is easy, have the candidate sign a contract that upon hiring he is to pay TBII their fee.

To the girl that wrote the information about TBII, my boyfriend and I just wanted to say "Thanks!"  We almost did the same thing.  I appreciate your information and you saved him the money... (and his job, he almost quit)

Sincerely,

Mary Ann and Dave
