Stay Away

One of our models who fell for a scam* by Cents International just sent us the following comment:

Once you gain some experience in the industry, its easy to become complacent regarding your relative safety in out of town situations. A combination of complacency, a desire to "make it", money, and a great deal of ignorance can lead you into some serious scam situations. If it has a possiblity of being fake, check references including Alan. I really wish I did, as Alan has knowledge of many scams and would give objective advice in the situation. I almost called Alan to check, but for some reason hung up the phone thinking he may talk me out of the opportunity of a lifetime.
I am now worried about identity theft and security at my home address and it all could have been avoided by calling Alan. Guys, when put in any situation that you can't 100% verify legitimacy, it would be best to give someone like Alan a call. The worst he could say is he has never heard of him, but he could just save you from the worst headache of your life.
