I didn't but these people did: http://ripoffreport!.com/searchresults!.as!.!.!.

I'm guessing you're in Washington since that's where all the complaints are located!? Complain to the BBB, tell your credit card company and see if they can give you any credit back, file reports with whoever you can!. Ban together with others who have been ripped off, sue the owners to get your money back and make sure people know who ripped you off, what their tactics were, etc!. People like this often close up shop then reopen under a different name doing the same exact business!.

good luck!

We just heard about the PMAA closing their doors leave my 9 year old in the lurch after paying $6,000!. I did a "Google Search" on PMAA and got a blog in Albuquerque by a parent who was obviously unhappy with PMAA!. The blog was "Duke City Fix" but curiously - the blog comment was pulled!. Maybe because of foul language!. I am collecting information then I intend to employ the help of Jesse Jones of "Get Jesse" fame on KING-TV!. Anyone know how to start a class action law suit!? I believe one is in order here!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes, apparaently this IS happening all over the country!.

I live near Tampa FL, was accepted on the phone less than a month ago (being told I had the highest score for females my age in the audition), my mom forked over 4900 (my brother and I went and she payed for the two of us), and now (two days before class actually starts) they say they have no money, are considering bankruptcy, and are closing doors so no classes will actually be given!.

I felt that this thing was legitimate at first (though I don't have any experience when it comes to these sorts of things) but the way this just happened!.!.!.totally seems like a scam to me!
