Isn’t This Prohibited?
I received this PM in response to a casting I posted: “Hey Aquarelle This is *****from ******Talent- www.******.Com I saw your casting call so I thought I'd reach out to you for potential collaboration. We are a new licensed talent agency that books actors and models all over the U.S. We have a model in Chicago that can do the shoot. I've left a link below for your reference. (Model’s name)- https:*****Talent.com, etc. We make booking talent quick and easy and do not charge any booking/agency fees. We are here to assist with your talent needs for your productions however possible. Just let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!” (Agents name) Phone # (Email and website) The guy who sent me this has an MM profile as a Los Angeles model. The Chicago model he is referring to me has her own MM profile. Isn’t this a violation of MM rules? I’d appreciate your observations regarding this. Nov 14 22 10:15 pm Link Sluggos are indeed prohibited. Nov 14 22 10:29 pm Link I'd refer it to the mods for investigation. Not seeing a blatant red flag, but no harm in checking. Nov 15 22 11:07 am Link Had the model responded directly to my casting, I might have hired her. Due to this “agent’s” intervention, I won’t. He helped her lose a gig.

Not on Model Mayhem per se but just in general. Nov 19 22 04:59 pm Link veypurr wrote: And it toke 4 days to get it reported to the mods. If I got a PM like that, I'd report it to the mods first not post it here. Nov 20 22 07:47 am Link |
