Has anyone heard of AfterSHOCK talent? I got an email from them (after submitting photo's) stating that they are interested in seeing my son. There's very little about them on the web and of course the submission was to a blind ad.

All I got were these links.
And I did a search for the owner Vincent Anthony and nothing but the Myspace page adn alont of iMDB stuff came up.

A quote from their myspace page:
YET...they are not legally licensed to represent talent in niether NY nor FL...which is where they're two offices are said (on myspace) to be located.

Another url for them:
http://www.hometown.aol.com/aftershocktalent/

Which is even worse with presentation than their myspace page.
It doesn't even try to cater to clients who may be interested in booking models. (Unless, they're hiding this mystical website from the public alltogether. But you also get on contact info like a street address nor a phone number. Just the email address. And no attempt to even have a website?

I don't trust it.

The unfortunate thing is the increasing numbers of people who play agent without following the required laws in their state. The best thing one can do to help contribute to the continued well being of models and talent is to report the violators and hope that they're taken down, fined, and closed up.
