Model Talent Network a SCAM? - Page 2 - MyModelTalk Free Casting Calls for Models and Actors!

They tried the same with me . . . · 11-17-2006, 01:10 AM

Model Talent Network is comprised of low life scum who are afraid to rob a bank so instead, use trickery to steal money from people. I went as well. i saw the post they posted on craigslist so emailed them. then they called me to come in. they said i don't need anything except a license to come for the interview. i get there, they make me fill out a small form and then ask if i brought pictures. since i didn't, they wanted me to pay a nice amount of money to have them taken. i am surprised the police have not raided them and jailed them for fraud. a person who left after me told me they tried the same on her but they wanted 3 times as much money for the pictures. it must be that they see if you look like you have a lot of money, they charge more. I wonder how much sadly fall for this. They play music videos on a tv in the "waiting room" and think thats all people have to see and they will beleive its a legit company. The lady ("interviewer"), i am not sure if her name was tee or what it was but she looked like she showered in sh*t. I am pissed that they dont care that you waste your time coming in to them just for them to tell u u need to pay an enormous fee for pictures. If they actually had clients who needed models and they can make good money off of you, would you have to pay money for pics. I wonder why they havent been closed down yet?

Well Model Talent Network is mad with us (or maybe just me). They posted a quick memo on thier site telling people that MyModelTalk.com slanders modeling companies and websites.

They even listed companies we supposedly "lie" about and slander.
E.G.: lori anderson/hitman records, NMPadvertising, and silvertouch pictures. Amazing that some of the campnies they have named are definately at odds with the indurstry.

Again as before they named names of people that have "dared" speak thier mind on MMT and raise objections to how they were treated. Before they did it on craigslist and the CL users were good enough to flag it down.

*Sigh*...

Here is the link. You may want to read it for yourself (grammar is a little bad though)...

Hi. I got screwed by model talent network too. I knew it all along too, but like, somehow they got away with it.

Anyways, now I have one phone number of an agent they told me might be interested, like they're sending me to him actively. Aside from that, I have a bunch of stupid prints and a list of mailing addresses of agencies I can send them out to.

Should I call the number and/or send out the prints? Or should I just move on and pretend this never happened?

If you have contact information and it is good information then use it to your advantage. never throw away a "good hand". As for dealing with MTM in the future that is up to you. There are lots of ways of finding out who agents are and getting their contact information.

The MMT directory for example is free however it was just launched and is in it's infancy.
