I am completely convinced Proscout is a legitimate company.

The success stories are endless. I myself know numerous people who received NUMEROUS callbacks(I am waiting for a reply email as to what it led to!).

I just got back from their interview(I have attended one event. ) They turned away 3/4 of the people that showed up for the interview. If this company was a "Scam" they would accept the 800 dollars from ANYONE who brought it!

Lastly, watch the following video...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKkZWTsGWWU&feature=player_embedded

You can tell that the success stories are not scripted, especially from big names, like "Jesse Plemmons", why would he give a fake testimonial?(He is on the show "Friday Night Lights").

Jae Head from "The Blind Side" is another terrific example.

How can you call Proscout a scam? I do not doubt that agents may be compensated to go up there...but the fact is, if they see real talent, they obviously take it. Go prepared, and STAND OUT.

The ones screaming "SCAM", are the ones that left empty handed, AND with an empty wallet!

When factoring in the 800 dollars to attend proscout, you have to think LOGICALLY.

Proscout is not an agent, they are a jumpstart to your career. They get you in front of agents, that otherwise, would not take the time out of their day.

You could spend hundreds of thousands of dollars(in my case), to relocate to Los Angeles, start small, build a resume, find an agent, etc. BUT- That will cost me hundreds of thousands. Purchase a home(not interested in moving short term, if I go), but even if you lease...LA is 2-4 times as expensive as anywhere else. Headshots, Acting classes, all the necessities to find an agent. We are talking serious cash.

Proscout is a huge savings, if you TAKE ADVANTAGE of it. You can't start a business without some startup costs. Same thing here.

And if your business fails, as you lack knowledge and experience, that does not mean anybody "Scammed" you, just means opportunity knocked, and you were not prepared to answer.

I took my daughter about 3 years ago they choose her and we did our pictures with them then shortly after they canceled the event and said it woud be rescheduled and never heard from them again. Then i called and called with many messages left and not one return call then their web site was down after that. arfter some time when i would call them it would say mail box full, of course with all the calls from everyone that was scam. Dont waste your time it's a scam

Procscout is out to get your money, plain and simple.
I attended an event with my daughter this past year. Our hotel alone was several hundred dollars.
They waved her fee if she would vouch for them .. and she has, but then again so have lots of people on this complaint board. I wonder how many of them were hungry teenagers lured by this under-handed promotional scam.
She got a call back, but nothing ever materialized. The agent was rude and not sincere within the least, her got her hopes up, then never called back.
I went mainly to keep and eye on her, the whole arrangement seemed shady to me and it was.
If you really want your child to 'make it' in life, don't set them up with a scam like Proscout is trying to pull. Sure they have the hype down pat, but in reality, these kids are being set up to fail. Spend time with your children, show them that you love them .. and be on the watch for scams like Proscout.
