Total money lost $20,000
Type of a scam Other
I responded to a craigslist ad about a new food network looking for new chefs to film a tv show to be aired on their network. They demanded payment up front, when they received payment, they took their time to book flights and crew to film the show. Once the show was filmed, they took their time to edit and deliver production to network, implying the production company and network were two different companies and they had "pitched" my show to them, when really they are all the same company owned by the same person. They aired my show online on multiple platforms without contracts and without paying me for the show then dumped the show after signing a guaranteed letter of intent to air the show. They took my money to produce the show, then didn’t pay me for the episode they aired. I am out thousands of dollars, have to file bankruptcy and am being sued from everyone that was involved that I can no longer pay due to this company not fulfilling their contract to me.
