I am a single mom wanting the best for my daughter. I was persuaded by several people to put her into modeling and to do it now while she was young. So I started my search for what I thought was a reputable modeling agency. I looked in the phone book and there it was Kids.com. I gave them a call set up an appointment and I thought she was set. I do however remember asking them did I need to bring anything other than my daughter just to see if there was going to be a large sum of money asked for because that would have indicated to me they were a fraud. But the guy I was speaking to said no.
However that became a different story once I got there. The first part of the interview went fine. They show you all these legitimate magazines and their walls are posted with kids and they tell you how the kids are always working and then they take your child in another room to see if the child can take orders and be okay without you. Once thats over then they ask you for 595.00. Of course I didn't have it. But they seemed so legite to me that I went home and saved and saved and saved until I came up with it.
Mind you that I'm a mother on disability so it took some months for me to come up with it. I'm very angry and hurt because all I wanted to do was open some doors for my three year old daughter and start her a college fund with the money I thought she could have earned. My disability money barely take care of us I really can't afford 600.00 in pictuers.
