I came across an email lately stating that there is a modelling opportunity for me from a person who claims to be Sam, by the email, ssaamm80@yahoo.com. He sent me a promotion that says Marks&Spencer is holding a model casting call. He claimed to be a referee that works in Viacom in the States(Viacom is a media-tv company in the States) and that he had found me through other referrals. He claimed that I can get paid up to RM 24 000. Wow-ing huh? So I looked through the promo. Weird enough, I find that the photoshop skills are really bad. The promo doesn't look like something a big company like M&S would produce. Not only that, he claimed that M&S is working together with Berjaya, Astro and Genting for this project. Weird combination, no? Alright, moving on, the details on the promo actually states the payment for models (mind you, never did I once, seen that on a casting call promo). Besides that, they are so lazy, they even forgot to put in the closing date and contact details! And as far as I know, M&S doesn't hire local models. That adds up to my curiousity.
So as always, before I sign anything with any company, I do my homework. I went to M&S and true enough, there weren't such model casting calls. I asked him for referrals, and he was trying to divert whenever I insist on wanting such informations, he even got mad, trying to proof that he isn't asking me for any money and it is only for my own good. The last message that I've gotten from him before I stopped replying was when he wanted my portfolio- my pictures in good quality(prolly, for him to misuse or to sell off) To confirm, I sent an enquiry letter to M&S. True enough, it was a fraud. So please do take notice, friends. And to Mr. Sam, please do brighten up and improve your skills before wanting to cheat. Please do not waste your time and make a fool out of yourself.
Inspirations.
you have perverted fans!
