Is is real or a scam

Yeah that's a classic scam. They charge you a lot of money but they make it sound like just a little by saying you'll get paid even more... and you never do.

Come to think of it, my niece was stung w/that scam. When I say "stung" I mean she fell for it hook, line and sinker, but because she was only 12, she wasn't able to get together enough scratch to follow through. They took her aside and told her that she was exactly what they were looking for and filled her head w/dreams of the spectacular career she was going to have... she just needed to spring 200$ or so to get it underway--for some reason, they weren't going to make the investment for someone so promising. She tried so hard to convince the family to finance this opportunity, but in the end, they were far too shrewd to fall for it.

Pay me £400 and I'll let you work in my sweat shop...

SCAM! Or at best very poor business practice and if that's their model, I would find someone more scrupulous.

that sounds totally legitimate and you should go for it

That's a scam. No other business would let you pay to work for them.

Don’t agencies have to be affiliated ?

I would have thought if they were genuine they’d be registered somewhere.

Screen actors guild; BAFTA; something like that ?

Sounds like shite.

Scam

It’s almost certainly a scam so avoid them

Scam. Legitimate agencies will never ask for a fee.

Sounds like a scam

It's about as real as a 13$ bill
