DEFAMATION/ SLANDER/ LIBEL SCAMS

We've heard reports of people telling models that our site is a scam. If anyone is here on this site because someone told you this and you wanted to see for yourself, feel free to read over our site and judge for yourself. We have nothing to hide. We create and make scam busting tools free of charge. Why would we be making tools available to take down scams if we were one? If we were a scam, we would be cutting our own throats with our scam fighting tools. As you have already figured, we are not a scam, and are here to help models and modeling industry professionals. If someone told you lies about us, it is highly possible that you have experienced a scam, and that scam would be the people who are slandering and defaming our site. Often, those same people try to steal our material and sell it back to the unsuspecting models who stay away from this site because they were "warned". What better way to conceal the source of their "original material"? If anyone says anything negative about this site, you MUST consider the source. WHY are they telling lies about us? What MOTIVATION lies behind their opinions? WHAT do they have to hide? You must investigate their business practices. Agencies may not like us because we teach models how to become their own "agency" and book work without an agency. Modeling schools don't like us because we have much better information than they do and we make it available to models for free. Managers don't like us because we teach models how to manage their own careers. Scams don't like us because we shine a light on the patterns of their business practices AND create tools that they cannot defeat. Those that hate us cannot beat us, and some of them show how criminal they truly are by stealing from us and then denouncing us. If ANYONE knows of any party slandering or defaming us, please let us know. If anyone knows of any party stealing from us, please let us know.

Scams listed here are not limited to models, and different types can be easily combined for new types of scams. If you cannot CLARIFY their intentions and VERIFY their references, go somewhere else to do business. It's professionally responsible to do so and lowers your risk. There are lots of great companies out there, like our advertisers and the companies in our resource sections, who are not scams. You owe it to your career to shop around and be selective.
