I got the same call last night (Oct 2ed) from Jack Diamond and he asked me to email him 3 to 5 headshot pictures and 3 to 5 full bodyshots. he said it would cost me 250.00 for a Tell a card! How do a go about finding out if this is for real! PLEASE HELP
You know, we all are getting the SAME speal.... from these so called casting people... right. No one that I've found yet can prove or disprove them. That's what is scary. You are taking a huge risk.
Now.... they very well may be real and legit... right??? BUT BUT BUT.... I bet IF they are...... they make far more from all the peeps that send their varying amount... 250-288-300..$$$...... to them..... Half or more than half don't make it on any show I bet... and they pocket that money.
I spoke with that GREG dude. seemingly nice... but... in panning them out... voicing concerns... I couldn't get them to give me the security that if I sent money they would come through or keep in touch on their end of it.
No where in their contract is their a protection for you. PLUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is the alarming part for me..............
In speaking with Greg S. on the phone.... ( about the contract I read) I asked about the time frame... The contract doesn't even give a time frame that you are held accountable to be represented by them for... Scary... BUT NOT THE ALarming part!!!
He said if you later on... decide you want to cancel the contract... you just have to mail a letter with your signature on it asking to terminate your contract. You can even fax it. So what they hay???? What business would cancel a profitable contract like that????? seriously.
So stay safe... even if they are legit... take the smart safer route and follow the guidelines to audition from the ACTUAL Network or shows website. Like ANTM... you mail tape... do that...
I got a call today from this same guy today!
He told me i could be on a show called "Girls and Bad Dogs".
...Now lets just wait and see if this "show" ever comes to air.
