A man by the name of Andy kuo sent me a text message asking me for my email address so that he can send me some information about a photo shoot. I received the email from a Justin McGinnis on behalf of Allure Model Management. The email explained everything that needed to take place including how the company was going to cover all the expenses necessary to get to the job. They were looking for cast and crew for photoshoot hosted by intradeco apparel. The company sent me a check for $3,900 which a portion of that was going to go towards a personal agent who would take care of the reservations for the hotel and a plane ticket. When I received the check I tried to deposit it into my bank account but it was rejected for security reasons. So I was asked to cover the $300 as a down payment to the agent, so he or she can begin work on the reservations. Every single time I would send them money it will always be a different person. I purchased multiple gift cards for the payment in which case they asked me to send them a picture of both the receipt and the gift card. After I covered the last $200 that the agent needed I didn't hear anything back from them.
