KSL 5 News investigates Tru Talent Management

HOLLADAY -- The company is called Tru Talent Management. People say the company approached them in public. But after signing up, they never wound up working on a stage or runway, and wish they had run away.
Whitney Moore was on the job at Wal-Mart when, out of the blue, a Tru Talent representative spotted her.
"He introduced himself and said I had the perfect physique for a model," said Moore. "It was pretty flattering."
The representative invited Moore to audition at Tru Talent headquarters in Holladay.
"He said ‘That was great. I really want to get you signed up,'" explained Moore. "So I'm thinking 'Oh! I'm gonna get a job. They're going to be an agency for me.'" More: http://tinyurl.com/talentmanagement7
