Description

Alan Acton Schneider (alanactionevents.com) contacted me via text message to donate to his TOYS FOR TOTS event for Dec 24. He said in return I would get my LOGO on his banner and be interviewed for the event. I sent the money, plus tax and fees totalling about $250 or more, and he NEVER put my logo on his banner; NEVER scheduled the Interview; and has ignored my calls and text messages for the last month. HE IS AN EVENTS PLANNER and a SCAMMER. It is NOT a lot of money and I want to report him.
