I was searching online for a security guard training school so I can obtain my 8 hour security certificate for a new job.I then found Blue Steel security guard training school's web site an called to set up an appointment to come in...June 2,2009, I went to the school an paid 25 dollars to get my certificate, sat in the class from 9pm-4pm, and watched a couple security video's..when it was over I finally recieved my certificate ..I was so happy thinking i was one step closer to getting a new job..
On June 16 i went to a different security agency to obtain my 16 hour o.j.t (on the job training) certificate when the instructor informed me that the 8 hour certificate that i obtained was a fake. He could of taken my fifty dollars anyway an let the job tell me that my 8 hour certificate was a fake but he didn't, an told me that I should try to get my money back.
I then sent Blue Steel security agency an e-mail telling them what was said by the instructor, an that i am now seeking a refund of my 25 dollars. I recieved a call back from crystal j the school director saying that I was not getting my money back, an that the certificate was an official certificate. I feel cheated out my 25 dollars and even if I cant get my money back , would like some light shined on this fruadulent so called business, so that this does not happen to anyone else looking to better thereself.
What can I do?
