Modeling/Alpha Model Group new identity
Last night my wife and daughter were subjected to a evening of entertainment
courtesy of Xtreme Talent, LLC of Fort Mill, SC. They ran a "models needed"
ad in the Richmond, VA paper--they only needed 30. You had to report to a
conference room at a local Holiday Inn. They were very slick--very convincing.
After an educational session about the in's and outs of the modeling
business and warnings about all the unscrupulous people that
just want your money, it turns out all you really need is to let
them post your on-line comp card on their model network to get all the
exposure you need for success. A bargain at $549 and $20/month
maintenance fee.
Why would you not trust them-- they said they were
Christians--they really did. They were also confused. They handed
out a
sheet describing their network service. In writing, they say they are
not
an agency. In the spiel, they said that they are an agency. I guess what
they say in writing would trump what you thought you heard if it came
down to an argument. My wife didn't get any complete names from these
characters, but the main players were a likable black guy and stocky white
guy (looked like a football player) with his hair pulled back in a pony tail.
A little research led me to your site. All you have to do is compare
the
websites for OTM/AMG to that of Xtreme Talent and you start making the
connections--same models, same bios. http://www.xtremetalent.biz
They are registered as an LLC in SC but their registered agent is an
anonymous front company. They joined the Better Business Bureau way
back in September 2006 and have had no complaints filed (yet). On the
BBB report they list Ms Allison Goebel as owner.

My daughter had a very hard time believing they were scam artists--she
was very disappointed but, luckily, not out any money. I do wonder how
many they did reel in during the call backs--there were more than 30 other
aspiring models (mostly black children) there last night.
