DEFINITELY A SCAM!!! I KNEW IT RIGHT AWAY BUT CONTINUED TO FALL FOR IT. YES I PAID 150 BUCKS FOR A UNPROFESSIONAL PHOTO SHOOT FROM A BUM LOOKING GUY, CRAP WHITE BACKGROUND AND HORRIBLE LIGHTING, THIS GUY NEVER DID THIS BEFORE!!!. THEY ONLY THING THAT MADE THEM LOOK GOOD WAS ME AND MY PROPS. THE POOR GIRLS AND GUYS WHO VOLUNTEER FOR THEMHAVE NO IDEA EITHER TILL ITS ALL SAID AND DONE AND YOUR MISSING 1000 BUCKS FROM YOUR WALLET! TODAY I GOT THE THING IN THE MAIL SAYING I WON A CONTRACT! YAY! LUCKILY I DO MY RESEARCH AND FOUND SOO MANY COMPLAINTS. ITS FAKE AND NO ONE SHOULD ASK YOU FOR MONEY LET ALONE MORE MONEY BECAUSE YOU WON! DONT FALL FOR IT! I WATCHED SO MANY GULLIBLE, UNTALENTED PEOPLE WIN ALL THEY NEEDED WAS MONEY FOR THE SHOOT. I AM GOING TO DO WHAT I CAN TO GET THE WORD OUT THERE HOW FAKE IT IS. SO MANY OTHER WAYS TO GET INTO MODELING DONT LET THIS COMPANY RUIN YOUR DREAMS OR HURT YOUR EGO. I CANT BELIEVE THEY BEEN DOING THIS 25 YEARS OR MORE TO INNOCENT PEOPLE AND THEIR LOVED ONES...ALWAYS DO YOUR RESEARCH AND ALWAYS CHECK THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU! WHICH THEY ARE NOT ON, HMM I WONDER WHY!!!

believe it or not? model productions / american mall model search is a big SCAM!! and there are a lot of reasons why believe me...i got to know this company like the back of my hand it all started with me doing runway and than they said come back for a photo shoot since i passed the runway walk so i agreed because i always wanted to be a model so me and my family took it from there. we came back the next few day's for my photo shoot and i was talking to this guy whose wife owns the thing and i was talking to him about how i thought one of their scouters were cute and he said oh? what about my son the guy that would be taking my pictures at the moment i went he's okay, i guess? anyway after that i went to take my pictures i saw his son oh what a handsome young man he was and from that time on i had a big crush on him. anyway after my photo shoot was my final contest the talent show i did it and i think i did GREAT! but... weird stuff started happening the company assured me i would get a call, email, or something in the mail stating if i won a 1YR contract or not in 2-3 weeks well now me writing this it's been about 3 weeks i have heard NOTHING from them and when i asked the companies daughter about it she got offline. than other weird stuff started happening the son i had the crush on was my friend we would text talk and stuff and than all of a sudden today i checked my friend's list he blocked & deleted me and never answered any of my texts anymore when i saw him at the modeling place he would walk away and ignore me the family started getting a big attitude and everything more so now as i leave this comment a sixteen year old female who i have always wanted to be a model or be in the business has had my dreams shattered by this company and their staff. i always gave them so many nice comment on how nice they were and after i did everything in the end they must have realized i wasn't model material and my $150 for pictures wasn't enough because now i sit here with no longer looking forward to a dream i though i had...also their family who had become my friends hurt me because they became my enemies and than the son who i liked a lot broke my heart by pushing me to the side like i was nothing sooo? what did i get out of this company? NOTHING!!! but hurtfulness and distrust. THEY SUCK!!!
