They post ads on Craigslist saying they're looking for extras for TV and movie roles. They call you and tell you to come in for an appointment. When you come in, they demand $200 to take photos of you.

This place is a scam! They c****e their company name all the time and charge you $100 to get head****s in some back room. Do not meet with them!

WOW!  Thanks for the posts! I also answered an ad from Craig's List for film extra work, and these scammers called me a few minutes ago, and I answered. I was wondering why they said "modeling" when I was looking for extra work - they're not the same. But I was going to go in at 6:00 PM today - they were insistent I come today (!), and I just called and canceled and said I can Never come in!.  I answered a couple of other ads from CL.  They're probably scams also. Thanks a***n for the heads up.

Thank you for all these comments. so glad i read this, i just got the call (in fact they called me twice, didn't pick up the second time). the women was speaking so fast and she was so rude i didn't even understand what she was talking about. I answered an ad on crigslist for a watch commercial and thats how i got in this mess.glad i read this!

I'm so happy I Googled them as well. The girl was talking so fast, I had to ask her to repeat her statements. I will not go to them-they even sound sketchy over the phone. Thank God!!!

Wow- just got the call and so****ing made me google them, and am reading all this- there's no way i'm going there. Thank you for informing us... you've just saved me big time.

I got the same call but googled it and got all this info about how its a huge scam.. please don't waste your time everybody.  I was about to get up early and go to meet with this sleeze bag.. the name itself sounds ******ed.. "***d West".. do yourself a favor and don't go!!

WMT is A BIG scam. I went in for an interview  today 3/11/09 and as soon as the receptionist gave me the form to fill out a girl walking by put her hand on my arm and said, "It's a scam, don't go, it's a scam". I kept what she said in the back of my mind the whole time....I even asked the receptionist if there was a fee, she said "no".......Even though the girl told me that it was a scam I still wanted to go and see for myself. I opend the door to the "waiting room" and I was shocked to what it looked like. It was VERY small room, not even a room it was like a closet with only 5 chairs to sit in (I'm not joking). I went in...I was called and sat down with this guy named ***d West. He said that he really liked my look and he would like to work with me  but he needed to get my head ****s together and a full body photo and this would be $200. He then showed me some video of a girl that he worked with and a photo on the wall of Molly Sims and him in the background of that photo. I could totally see that the picture was photoshoped. Why was he the only person in the background? I didn't see anyone else around in the picture. Oh, and his office was weird to. It looked like a 13 year old girls room with ***dreds of magazine cut outs ALL OVER the walls. Do me and yourself a favor by not going to that Place. WNT Model and Talent is located at 224 West 35th street 2nd floor room 216 remember this address because when you come across the ads on Craigslist or any other site they don't ever show what they're "company" name or address they only show their phone number. Their number is (516) 679-6069, if you see this number on an ad for modeling or talent DON't CALL!! just like that girl said to me, "IT"S A SCAM, DON"T GO, IT"S A SCAM".

I got a call, no message was left on my answering ma****e.

Okay. Just got a call from this #. Unfortunately, I answered...The woman set up an appointment with me. I called back.. asked if I would have to pay money for "photos"/"website"/etc.. other bs like that, she said possibly... I canceled, and gave her a fake #.This is so ridiculous and unprofessional! PLEASE SAY NO IF YOU ANSWER THIS #!
