Hello everyone, iam requesting information on a company called united states tactical fugitive apprehension, also goes by the name vella enterprises international. It is suppost to be in garden grove california. I have not been able to find any information if its a legit company or a scam. I was told to pay $500 for the training and certs including the pc 832, and the 1299. Also they requested the payment from a green dot money pak card. The person i spoke to goes by the name deputy griffin. Any information or help would be greatly appreciated.

I think Tony gave you all you need to make your determination.

... be very aware of who you hook up with... California is an unregulated state and charlatans and scammers are abundant.

You might check out Rex Venator and "BailSpeak". Do a Google on them and read, read, read.

It might also help to verify a companies existence through record searches at the county or state level. Check the California Secretary of States office, or county/city court records for business licenses and such.

It's not a guarantee, and not everyone operates a corporation but it might help you verify a provider as legitimate.

Sounds like a total scam to me. I highly suggest you heed Mr. Suggs' advice.

Did this guy Griffin, state that he trained federal LE and had all kinds of certifications? Also, could you tell if he was black or white?

If he is the guy I am thinking of, it's a big scam. Do not send him any money.

I can provide more details if you want. Send me a PM or better yet call me.

This is a total scam. This is right in my backyard and I've never heard of these guys operationally...only their "school". And if it is the guy Tony is thinking of, he called me too. Again, total scam.

Beware of any private citizen that adorns himself with a rank.

Www.bailspeak.com the most credible school
In CA that is focused on your success. Further, 1299
Was sunset so they are advertising teaching compliance
