Personal Drainer
I am engaged and decided to get in shape for the big day. I
was approached by a Personal Trainer in my gym (Gold's) and I signed
up for two months, but eventually he talked me into 5 months ($1000
all together). However this man then skipped town with a lot of people's
money!
I paid with a credit card and will get my money back, but some paid
for the whole year with personal checks! Another part of his
scam was to sign women up, work them too hard, be mean to them and
then they would stop coming to their sessions and he would keep their
money!
My advice is don't sign up for more than two months at a time, pay
by credit card, sign a contract that says 'Sessions will be formatted
to my goals and plan and I will like them or receive my money back" and
get a copy of their business license and Personal Training Certificate
(for proof and references).
