got a call from a brady madden, asking if i was still interested in a job, he actually called my parents house and left them a message. I go to school in kalamazoo, but never heard of this company or applied to them in anyway...

..is this a scam?

I also got a call from brady madden for the same thing about an hour ago.  I go to school in Kalamazoo, but have not applied for any jobs.  I have no idea who it is or how they got my number.

Ditto.  Who is this guy?  A military recruiter maybe?

I received the same call a couple of days ago. I just called back and left a message saying I looked forward to hearing what he had to say. I think it's a scam so I want to talk to him and then report it to the police.

I got the same call this morning from a Brady Maddin.  Interested to see how Maria's so called interview goes.  I bet it's a group interview.  About five years ago, I went to one of these interview, fun thing it was at the same building on Kilgore and Sprinkle. The Health and Wellness Company also turned out to be a multi-level marketing company.  Don't get me wrong, I totally support multi-level marketing, but when focus and income shifts from product sale (product/service exchanged for currancy) to recruiting for profit, it is now a pyramid scheme.  I joined the "Health and Wellness" Company and made a lot of money but they were sure to suck ever penny and more back from me, through expensive desk fees and trainings, conventions.  Everyone who joined, who wasn't exactly salesman or should I say recruitor material, lost out on alot of invested money $2000-$4000) but I sure I lost out on much more, damn my persistance.  I finally quit after 6 months.  Two months after that Trek Alliance was shut down and under went a huge litigation filed by the federal trades bureau for being a pyramid scheme.  Don't get sucked in Maria!  Some of the big dogs who didn't get knocked down by the Gov, changed company names and started new companies.

P.S. Maria was called from same biz dif # 269-342-5770

If you get a call from Brady Madden, or anyone else from Westmac, do not hesitate to be extremely rude. As Jen said, it is an attempt to recruit people for multi-level marketing (aka) a pyramid scheme. I was approached by someone like this a couple years ago at a gas station and upon meeting with him realized it was one of these scams. These people are tools that have no professional experience. Do not agree to meet with these people! Tell them what you really think of their pathetic excuse for a business.

I just got a call from Brady Madden this last friday.  I have been looking for a job for a while so I called him back and scheduled an interview.  Now, after reading these posts and others on several sites all claiming that this is a pyramid scheme I plan on calling to cancel this interview tomorrow.  Thanks for all the information so now I don't have to waste my time or my gas.

thanks for the info... got the same call from Brady Madden and West Mac... don't know how they found out about me... although my resume is up on Bronco Jobs... kind of upset if Bronco Jobs are allowing this kind of company to recruit WMU students from their website! Thanks again!!

I got a call from him too.  It was kinda crazy because I went to high school with him.  I asked where he got my number, searched on this site and then called him back. It turns out that he had talked to another one of our high school friends that goes to western and that person referred him to me. Although my life is taking me down different career paths than what they do, they are still good people and these allegations are rediculous. ive known him since middle school as well as his family. plus, if its so illegal, why wouldnt the police shut them down?

Brady Madden called today
http://symmetrydirectscam.weebly.com spells it all out. This company is bad news!!

This is a pyramid scheme, and they are calling offering false hopes of "jobs" and "employment" when they are really trying to sucker you in to join a pyramid scheme!

BEWARE!!

FYI-they are also taking referral lists, alumni lists, church directories, and anything else that they can get their hands on to call people with, so yes you may personally know them, but they lie their pants off about where they got your name from!

I just recieved a call as well from a guy named John Barton, however the phone number is different.  This is definitely a scam.  The number I got was 2698708074.  If you receive this number on your phone, don't answer it or if you do answer it be prepared to just say No.  He seems to have a convenient answer to everything you have to say which easily leads to the belief of a scam.  I don't understand how they are able to get the cell numbers either but somehow they can.  Ignore anything that claims to be Westmac or something similar.

Yes, brady called me, then i know someone who went to this thinking it was a real job. It wasn't it is a pyramid marketing scheme. They say brady is the richest one in west michigan. My friend was at shakspears bar and saw brady being a waiter. I asked him about it and he denied it. He denied knowing my friend. It is a big scam and a waste of time. It is illegal and a trick, he tricked innocent people that were needing help on a job, they corner you after the presentation and make people by their supplies. Dont do it

Steve- I am sure that their products are "wonderful" as you claim, but thier recruitment tactics, which everyone here seems to have some serious issues with are not.

In fact, I haven't seen one person mention the products at all, come to think of it. Many people are complaining about being contacted for a "full or part time job" only to find out that they are being suckered into a MLM scam.

It's frustrating with the job market today, and to mis-identify yourself is illegal.

I for one, am grateful to websites like this that report the truth and give people a heads up about what's really going on.

Many of the same people involved with Symmetry Direct were previously invovled with Trek Alliance. Trek Alliance was shut down by the FTC for the EXACT same reasons that Symmetry Direct is now operating under, including false offers of employment and job opportunities.

It's only a matter of time before these illegal recuitment tactics catch up with Symmetry Direct. Websites like this must scare the tar out of those people...

I like how his "friends" from high school and college call him a good guy. It's pretty funny, cause I have a feeling it's probably Brady writing it. If the company is legit, then why are there so many posts saying all this s**t about it. If you could make "millions", then why the f*** cant you look this company up on the new york stock exchange.

Visit Brady Madden anytime at Shakespeares Pub, he gets slighltly awkward and gives his table away to another server if he remembers that he tricked you.

I just called Shakespeares.
I asked if a Brady Madden worked there.

That is an affirmative.

Funny that he can make "tons of money" working this pyramid scheme, but he needs another job.
