GCG Consulting Group

Review: This site advertises online job fairs. For $50, I paid for my resume to be submitted to employers in Illinois, particularly Chicago. I corresponded with the contact email prior to paying to ask various questions. The site listed employers but the list was redacted, you got the unredacted list after you paid. Once I paid, I called three firms on the list, all of whom never heard of this site and stated they never signed up for the job fair. When I confronted the employee of the site, he stated I violated the terms of the agreement and that I was banned from the site. He also has threatened to report me to the ABA and my state ethics board. Beware of this site they are taking advantage of unemployed attorneys nationwide. Do not use this site!Desired Settlement: I would like a refund of my $50 and to see if this site can be shut down. It is completely fraudulent!!!!

Review: I received an e-mail about entertainment industry job fairs being held in New York City and Los Angeles. GSG Consulting Group charged $25 as an entry fee, which I paid on September 16th, 2013. To this date, I have yet to receive an e-mail, phone call, or any information on a job fair or potential employers. I paid the entry fee and haven't heard from GCG Consulting Group since.I e-mailed the Job Fairs Coordinator, T[redacted], on November 4th, 2013 and never received a response. I suspect that this is a "business" taking money from those looking for careers and never doing a service for said job-seekers.Payment receipt below:Sep 16, 2013 08:46:35 PDTTransaction ID: 57G004941B244530EHello [redacted],You sent a payment of $25.00 USD to GCG Consulting Group(k[redacted]@gmail.com)It may take a few moments for this transaction to appear in your account.Merchant:GCG Consulting [email protected] to merchant:You haven't entered any instructions.Description Unit price Qty AmountRegistration Fee -- NY & LA Production Job Fair, Sept 2013Item# 1279130 $25.00 USD 1 $25.00 USDSubtotal $25.00 USDTotal $25.00 USDPayment $25.00 USDPayment sent to [redacted]Invoice ID: 5[redacted]g8wccsgDesired Settlement: Refund my $25 entry fee.

Review: I was offered to sign up for a law school job fair where I would be able to interact with law firms online for a price of $50. I was given a list of participating firms that was redacted. I was told not to personally contact any firms as it would be in violation of the firm agreement. I received a few e-mails telling me to send cover letters back to this e-mail. After that nothing happened and I was never contacted directly by any firms. I tried contacting the number and looking up the business but they have no working telephone line. When I looked up their office on Google Maps it left me to a residential neighborhood in California.This is a scam and do not sign up for thisDesired Settlement: $50.00
