Another talent expo fraud. A company rolled into town with commercials or post cards to call to get your child on TV. The problem is they want from $1950 to over $5000.00. You go in and you are sold on why you should do it if you are picked.
If you are picked, you call in the next day to find out, and then you register and give your money away. You do not need to pay to model, the point is that you should be getting paid.
This has been done before by IMTA, which these companies just continue to change their names. This one is sneaky since they use The as their name (pronounce Taay). I could not find references for most of the people involved, but the ones that I found were involved with IMTA. Please, do not blow your money, speak to the Attorney Generals office before you get into any schemes like this. I spoke with Colorado's Attorney Generals office and they could not do anything until the complaints were made. Meaning, you first have to be scammed to complain.
Logically, the big agents don't have to seek talent. Talent comes from all over the world to seek them. Call up a reputable agency and ask them if this sounds right. Here are the names involved.

Good luck, and let's stop this fraud from happening to innocent families.
