Known Scammers

Click here for tips on how to avoid being a victim. The following is a partial list (not exhaustive!) of known scammers:

Magnificent Body: This scam typically begins with an email message that says something like: "I must confess you've got a magnificent body, but I'm contacting you just for business." It then goes on to promise upfront payment by cashier's check if you accompany the sender to an upcoming party. The catch is that you are asked to return part of the payment (which they often claim will be given back to you after you attend the party), but the check will bounce soon after you send back their requested portion and, of course, there is no party at all.

Induction Party: This scam is another variant of the above and typically begins with an email message like: "Seeking a model to escort me to a friend's induction party in two weeks time." It then goes on to promise upfront payment by cashier's check if you accompany the sender to the party. The catch is that you are asked to return part of the payment (which they often claim will be given back to you after you attend the party), but the check will bounce soon after you send back their requested portion and, of course, there is no party at all.

REGINALD FOX: He tries to persuade you to pay him upfront for an "Adult Entertainers License" or a "Medical Fee" but it is worthless and you will never hear from him again once he gets your money. He also uses aliases of David Miles, Brian, Kevin, Derrick, Darren, Chris, or R Fox; he sometimes uses the email address of snowmanagement1@gmail.com or djsmodels@yahoo.com or cb31models@yahoo.com or jrhmodels@yahoo.com or fullermodels@yahoo.com and/or the phone number of 323-671-6103, 323-269-9638, 323-799-8204, 424-222-6252, 323-667-4065 or 323-495-3842, but he undoubtedly uses other aliases too, so please beware. Do not give this scammer any more money!

Magazine Scams: These scammers are getting more and more tricky in how they hide their identity. Please do no accept any offers to be paid for your photo to be used in a magazine where you are asked to return part of the payment. The payment will bounce AFTER you send back their requested portion. Recent scammers are using email addresses of alangottlich@gmail.com and cwtv@hot-shot.com, as well as flirtsmagazinc@gmail.com, but they change them regularly.

Mystery Shopper: They claim to offer you employment as a secret shopper or a mystery shopper, but actually they want you to cash forged checks. There is no real work and you will be liable if you deposit any of their fraudulent "payments." Please immediately report any emails you receive of this sort. They use the email addresses of okishajaggarine@yahoo.com, Tasmin.folks@gmail.com, mcwood82@gmail.com and probably many others.

Bevan Weston or B Weston or Bevan Mulrey: He claims he is an agent for various companies within and outside of USA. Really, he just wants you to cash bad checks. He often uses email address of bweston002@gmail.com or bweston@poetic.com.

Harry Scott of SIFY Modelling Company will claim to offer you a shoot in the UNITED KINGDOM. This is a bogus offer designed to get you to pay upfront fees. He often uses email address of haryscott@sify.com and phone number +447024026825.
