Hello,

I appreciate your interest on this assignment, I just want you to know that our client has assured me that part payment will be mailed to you, until you receive and confirm payment we will not shoot, your total pay for the job is $1300 as I said earlier and upfront part payment of $300 will be mailed to you first and the balance of $1000 in cash immediately after the shoot. regards your poses just practice the one you know for now as time goes on before the shooting date there will be someone to practice with you and teach you more pose and styles because this catalog will be publish world wide this may be your open way opportunity.

If you agree to take this job and will obey all rules and regulation that will be giving to you on this assignment get back to me with the following information below:

Also she said after we confirm the part payment, as you know the shoot date has been fixed to be held on 7^th of May 2011 let me know if the date is ok for you. Make-up, hair etc would be taken cared of at the Studio as we are presently deliberating with some studio agents over location, remember you can come along with anyone of your choice.

You have 12 different fashion outfits to cover as I already mentioned which would be provided by our client on the day of the shooting, most type of clothing will be Jeans and Jackets.
I hope all is well stated, make sure you get back in touch with the above required details at once thank you.

Regards.

FIRST EMAIL:
The spacing and the email format is suspicious, the grammar is horrible and modeling agencies and bookings would most likely NOT present the expenses and pay so forward. They are offering $1300 for an amateur like me. NOT right....

SECOND EMAIL:
They would be sending me $300 in the mail after I provide them with all my information????
hmmmmmm now at this point if the light bulb in your head has not clicked yet...I don't know what to tell you. After I read this, I received another EXACTLY email from a guy named Ralph. Man how much more obvious can they get? As the light bulb in my head lit up, ring ring**** SCAM written all over it! So I went online and typed in "modeling scams" on Google and I found these sites and forums:

Think carefully and STAY SAFE!!!!!

Truthfully, i dont think anyone understands that sometimes there is so much going on that i cant handle and have time to hang out with friends. people blamed t bc of my bf at the time and w/e but truthfully at that time...my parents were splitting up for good and the whole family was a wreck to a point that i would cry myself to sleep every night. there is things that just keep happening one after the other and time just past to a point where i feel lost. and when i hit that point where i felt "lost," i didnt know how to reconnect anymore bc i had that feeling where i didnt belong anymore....i wanted someone anyone to reach out and say "hey your still my friend" but no one did...no one texted me just to say hey...so i felt like you all forgot and didnt care about me...i felt all alone in life...no friends...no one to care for me...no family...so i just had one person beside me and that was my bf. i couldnt tell the whole world about my family...too many things were happening that i didnt have time to JUST STOP and explain everything.... the drama hasnt ended my family cooled down for a year but its starting up again since last month....i cant take it anymore...im literally crying ad stressed out each day and night....

i missed you guys the most

I hope you guys understand...there is difficulties in life...and I just like everyone had went through one of the worst times in my life...try to understand me without doubting me, misunderstanding me, blaming me, or neglecting me

I love you guys...to me once your accepted into my life :) you will always be there...maybe sometimes I don't say it or show it but you are very special to me.

I have never forgotten you :)
