Success.. Success.. SCAM!

You think you are getting somewhere with your modeling career and then.. SCAM!

A model agency can sometimes offer you the best deals but sometimes it is too good to be true, and in some cases that is the reality.

When applying to join a modelling agency always do your research, and ask other people have to say about the agency. Ask the agency if you can pay them a visit, this way you will see where they are based and whether they are legitimate or not. If this is not possible give the agency a call, this way you can talk to someone at the agency about any enquiries you may have.

Before you sign a contract read it thoroughly make sure you have all informations. Ask questions on any concerns you have because if everything goes wrong and you have paid a fee with no work for a long period of time, there is very little chance of you getting your money back.

Luckily there is some help 'The Employment Agencies Act', this act gives people applying to work for an agency 7 days to decide whether this is the right opportunity for them. Under this act you can then leave and not carry on any further with the agency if it is felt that they are not reputable.

Remember to do your research and that ignorance is not bliss in the modeling world.
