http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001882856982 I MET THIS GUY ASAP JONES- THREW CRAIG'S LIST. HE CLAIMED HE COULD GET MY ARTIST/DAUGHTER A SHOW FOR SPRING BLING. HIS AD SAID HE WAS LOOKING FOR FEMALE RAP ARTIST FOR THE ROAD TO SPRING BLING. B.E.T. SHOW. I WAS VERY INTERESTED AND CONTACTED ASAP JONES AKA GARY JONES AKA DOMINIQUE JONES (WHICH HE GOES BY BUT CLAIMS THIS IS HIS SONS NAME). HE MET US IN THE ULTIMATE SPORTS BAR IN DECATUR. SAT WITH US AND TALKED WITH US AND HAD TONS OF PAPERS AND ARTIST PICTURE PROFILES THAT HE CLAIMED THAT HE HAD ALL THESE ARTISTS THAT HE PROMOTED FOR AND ALL THIS STUFF GOING ON & I NEEDED TO PAY $20 registration fee PLUS $150 TO BEGIN THE PROCESS FOR SPRING BLING. I GAVE HIM $100 OF THE $170 THAT HE REQUESTED. HE JUSTIFIED HIS NOT HAVING BUSINESS CARDS, WEBSITE, AND OTHER THINGS BY SAYING THAT HE WAS JUST RESTARTING THE BUSINESS AGAIN BECAUSE HE TOOK A BREAK BECAUSE HIS PARENTS RECENTLY PASSED AWAY. WHICH TOOK MY FOCUS OFF OF THE FACT THAT HE DIDN'T HAVE ANY OF THE THINGS THAT "NORMAL" BUSINESSES THESE DAYS HAVE BECAUSE I FELT SORRY FOR HIM LOSING HIS PARENTS. HE CLAIMED THAT HE WANTED TO PUT MY ARTIST/DAUGHTER IN ALL THESE SHOWS & SET UP FAKE DATES WITH ME FOR SO CALLED SHOWS- AFTER HE COLLECTED THE MONEY LESS THAN A WEEK LATER HE CALLED & SAID THAT HE THE 1ST 2 SHOWS WERE CANCELLED. HOWEVER BEFORE HE TOLD ME ABOUT THE CANCELLATIONS HE STARTED TO ASK ME TO DO FAVORS FOR HIM. SUCH AS GO PICK UP A RENTAL VAN FOR HIM SO HE COULD PICK UP EQUIPMENT AND SAID HE WOULD PAY ME BACK WHEN I BROUGHT THE TRUCK TO HIM -THATS WHEN I BECAME SUSPICIOUS- NEEDLESS TO SAY I DID NOT GET THE VAN FOR HIM & THEN HE STARTED ACTING FUNNY LIKE HE HAD AN ATTITUDE WITH ME. I THEN FIGURED THAT I SHOULD GO RESEARCH HIM I CALLED HIM ON THE PHONE AND ASKED HIM FOR HIS REAL NAME AND HE GOT A SASSY ATTITUDE WITH ME. BUT GAVE ME THE NAME OF DOMINIQUE JONES... BUT HE STUTTERED WHEN HE SAID IT AS IF HE WAS GOING TO GIVE ME ANOTHER NAME. I SEARCHED HIM & OF COURSE FOUND COMPLAINTS WHICH ALARMED ME. BECAUSE THE SAME THINGS THAT WERE IN THE COMPLAINTS WERE THE SAME PROBLEMS THAT I WAS HAVING... SUCH AS... HE ALSO SAID THAT HE NEEDED TO SEE ME AT LEAST 3 TO 4 TIMES A WEEK AND ALSO SAID THAT HE WOULD CALL ME EVERYDAY. (I TOLD HIM THAT I DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO SPEND WITH HIM 3-4 TIMES A WEEK BUT TO CALL ME AS MUCH AS HE WANTED BECAUSE I WANTED MY ARTIST/DAUGHTER TO BE SUCCESSFUL) HE ALSO WAS MAKING PASSES AT ME TELLING ME HE WANTED TO BUILD A RELATIONSHIP WITH ME AND THAT HE WANTED TO TAKE SOME VACATIONS WITH ME TO VARIOUS PLACES. I REALLY WASN'T INTERESTED BECAUSE HAVING A BOYFRIEND WAS NOT MY FOCUS AND BESIDES I THOUGHT THAT HE WAS REALLY GAY. AFTER I DISCOVERED THAT HE HAD COMPLAINTS ABOUT HIM SCAMMING OTHER PEOPLE, I THEN CALLED HIM AND CONFRONTED HIM ABOUT IT & HE BEGAN SCREAMING AT THE TOP OF HIS LUNGS THAT I WAS WRONG FOR SEARCHING HIM ON THE INTERNET. HE YELLED I HAVE NO RIGHT TO LOOK HIM UP AND ANYTHING THAT I WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT HIM I SHOULD ASK HIM AND HE WOULD TELL ME & I DIDN'T HAVE TO LOOK HIM UP. I ASKED HIM REPEATEDLY TO STOP SCREAMING AT ME. BUT HIS REASON FOR SCREAMING AT ME WAS BECAUSE I HAD NO BUSINESS INVESTIGATING HIM. I TOLD HIM THAT THE ARTIST THAT HE WAS CALLING HIMSELF TRYING TO SCAM WAS MY DAUGHTER AND I HAD EVERY RIGHT TO SEARCH HIM. HE THEN WENT INTO THE MUSIC BUSINESS HAS OTHERS THAT HAVE SCAM COMPLAINTS TOO. I TOLD HIM THAT I WANTED MY $100 BACK & IF HE DOESN'T GIVE ME THE $100 BACK THAT I WAS GOING TO GO TO THE NEWS... NOW IF I PUT ANOTHER COMPLAINT ON HERE, YOU KNOW THAT I WENT TO THE NEWS AND THAT HE DIDN'T GIVE ME THE $100 BACK... BUT UNTIL THEN YOU CAN ASSUME THAT HE GAVE IT BACK. MY SUGGESTION TO YOU IS NOT TO DEAL WITH HIM NOR PEOPLE WHO DEMAND MONEY AND CONTRACTS ON THE FIRST DAY. DO NOT DEAL WITH A PERSON THAT HAS NO BUSINESS CARDS, WEBSITE OR VISIBLE INFORMATION AND REFERENCES. I BELIEVE THAT HE IS A SCAM ARTIST. ESPECIALLY SINCE THE SO CALLED FIRST 2 SHOWS THAT HE SET UP WAS CANCELLED IN THE FIRST WEEK.
