New Faces Modeling - Review in Advertising category
Hello, I received a message via my twitter page asking me if I was interested in turning up for a commercial shoot next weekend, though I would have to pay out £320 for a costume hire and will be reimbursed on the day of arrival, they said I will receive £3020 for the shoot. I'm not sure if I should do this, as I've been Scammed before through an agency called Models Direct, knowing as Talent Management, I've been with them for 2 years, I handed over £134 and did not find me any work at all. Thank you, Kind Regards, William

They scammed me and they took advantage of me
They made me pay upfront, then they made me pay for a lousy portfolio of low quality, then they promised me to help find me work, to upgrade it (but they ended up not doing anything!) and when I got fed up after several months of waiting for them to find me work and I got so angry that I tried to confront Peter and demand for proof that they're legit he ("Peter") kicked me out and said he never wanted to see me again. He even allowed me to work in the office, but only briefly, and he and his colleagues treated me like rubbish. They had no respect for me at all!

New Faces, Now trading as Millenium Castings: Scam
After answering an add in Gumtree for extras I recieved an email from Millenium Castings. Millenium Castings Bear Street 11-12, London WC2H 7AS Leicester Square, 0207 766 **** 0207 766 **** The scammer who runs it changes the name so many times its best to search for it on google using the two phone numbers. I am a professional photographer so I did not need the to take my photos but I asked him many questions about his company and why they needed "18" photos. He was unable to remember his bosses name; saying his surname was at first "Peter" Then saying he got it wrong and it was in fact, Punwar, Then he said he couldn't remember the website address of his own company, then said it was down and there was no point me knowing the address for the old one, then he said he doesn't know the new website address. I pointed out that its a bit strange that he doesn't know the name of his boss or the website address. He said he had only been working there for "7 weeks". I got ore and more suspicious when I asked for a list of the photos that they require and he said then need between 15 and 20 and I said, "ok. List what you need so I can supply those for you." He said "angry, sad, happy, thinking, shocked..." and then couldn't think of any more. So he said, just do two of each! :) I was actually laughing by the time he hung up on me. But I shouldn't laugh. This guy is a real scammer and its such a shame that they prey on gullible wannabe models, actors and extras who haven't done the research. He will probably never be stopped. Because how can you prove that its not a real agency. All he needs to do is submit one person to one job and he is doing what he's supposed to do. He can always blame the model for being too ugly! :) If we all called his number every half an hour and spent twenty minutes asking him questions he would not be able to run his scam...

New faces Models agency
Updated by user Nov 16, 2012
I also forgot to mention that the interview lied to me that they only accept photos from few photographers they only recommend. She said by law i have to get them done legally with their photographers.
If i have photos done by other professional photographers they most likely will not be accepted. Instant money making scam alert!!!
Original review Sep 17, 2012
New faces models agency Cameo House, Bear Street Leicester Square, London WC2H 7AS 0207 766 ****. I got details from Gumtree joblist. This agency is a scam. I went there last week Sept 2012. An indian accented lady picked the phone up to book an appointment. When i got there i knocked on the door as they wrote to do so before entering. I saw an Indian looking lady who asked me to wait outside the reception area, not very friendly at all. I was called in and the same indian lady interviewed me. Again not friendly but better than before slightly. I was told the photographer will take pics of me and i shud pose in 10 different ways. i felt i little comfortable as the photographer kept taking pictures before i changed as i didnt know what to do. Then the indian lady told me to ring in half an hour to get my results. I called in half an hour and no one answered for ages. So I walked to their office to find the indian lady there by herself. She said everyone has left now and she closed her laptop so could not check if i was successful. She said we need to check if u are photogenic. Then she goes call tomorrow in the afternoon. I did and another Indian accented lady picked the phone up saying everyone is out doing castings and she couldn't help me. I asked her to tell someone to call me the next day. I made her promise. The next day came and went. No one has called me and it's been a week. Absolutely rubbish modeling, extra,acting agency. Unprofessional and the room they take the photos looked a bit like a tarot card readers room. Please do not waste your time going there. I'm very pissed off with them as I had to walk back to check if I was successful or not and got no answer. I donno what they did with my pics and personal info.
