S.T.I.P. - SHINING TREE PROMOTIONS - SHINING TREE INTERNATIONAL PROMOTIONS Aka QUANTUM Aka Sapphire Skies Promotions Inc Shady and Pyramid Scheme Job all commission 1-5% goes to charity

I had a bad experience about two years ago with SHININGTREE INTERNATIONAL aka S.T.I.P.aka Quantum, a company in PICKERING. I was originally very excited to attend the interview, which promised work on behalf of charities for children (Toys for Tots, D.A.R.E., etc.). When I arrived, I was kept waiting for more than a half hour - which was enough time to read the marketing material they had laying out.

In trying to find out more about the company so that I could be more responsive in the interview, I instead found out that the company was set up more like a pyramid scheme. The marketing literature detailed how you could set up an office anywhere with just a fax and phone line, and 'start earning right away'; it was poorly written, lots of errors in spelling, etc.

I finally was brought in for the 'interview', which consisted of an alleged office manager reading my resume for two minutes (when I was told he had already reviewed it); no conversation AT ALL; and finally a dismissal. I was told they were 'just meeting people today' - which I found odd because the man hardly even looked at me! - and told to return for a second interview the following day. When I started to ask a question, his phone rang, and he told me he had to take the call, I should call him later with any questions. The receptionist wouldn't answer any questions either, with the excuse that the phones were busy.

I left in a very disappointed, but also angry, mood. Ironically, they sent me an e-mail almost immediately to 'confirm' the second interview (which I never set to begin with); I sent a very nasty reply back. The next day I got a call from the person I 'met' with, telling me not to bother showing up; when I started asking questions about what work they actually performed, I was fed a lot of excuses about how they didn't take money from people, etc., etc.

I had almost forgotten about this incident until I answered another ad on monster.com just a few days ago, for Sapphire Skies Promotions Inc in oakville. The way I was set up for an interview, had no questions answered, and even the e-mail confirmation, all brought it back. Now highly suspicious, I found a posting from someone else here, who mentioned the product FW1 - which is proudly advertised on THEIR website! I might add, the website looks professional, but is short on information about the company's ownership, management, etc.

After I discovered the posting here, I called Sapphire Skies Promotions Inc; when I asked if they were affiliated with Quantum Promotions, I got an instant 'no'; but when I asked for more information on the company, I was left on hold for more than five minutes before I hung up in disgust. PLEASE do not waste time on this company, I'm beginning to believe that this is a scam that simply shifts names and locations whenever they get busted. Don't fall for it
