Some bloke said he was calling from a modelling agency and asked me to pay a £50 'deposit' to secure a meeting with one of their agents. They said it was refundable, but felt a bit dodgy to me.

I got a couple of texts saying I’d been chosen for polo models or something like that. Then some bloke named Ed left me a voicemail too. Same message both times.

I came across an Instagram ad for commercial modelling and decided to give it a go, uploading a photo. Within 24 hours, I got an email and a message, then a phone call from someone called Ed O’Connor who was super eager and congratulated me for getting to the next round. He mentioned studios in places like London, Manchester, Miami, Camden and so on. Then he asked for a £50 deposit to hold my spot, which immediately made me suspicious. I told him I’d ring back later. He kept pushing for the deposit, but I wasn’t willing to pay a penny. Eventually, I agreed I’d call back soon. After doing some digging I found this site and saw it’s a scam. When Ed called again, I told him I knew it was a con, though he denied it of course. Anyway, don’t waste your time or money - it’s a total scam.

I got a call from what sounded like a modelling agency, or at least thats what they said. Pretty sure it was some sort of scam, felt off to me.

Cheers to everyone - after looking through what you lot said, I went ahead and blocked the number. I’d been thinking it was some kinda scam.

Cheers to everyone who shared their thoughts! Once I saw your replies, I went ahead and blocked the bloke’s number. Initially, I had a feeling it might be some sort of scam.

Have you managed to get your cash back? I already handed over my deposit, but he's refusing to return it. Is there any way to sort this out?

Hey all, I had a run-in with someone calling themselves Ed O’Connor who tried the exact same trick, asking me for a £50 deposit. What really helped was looking up reviews online first, then I quickly rang my bank to stop the payment and get my money back. Just a heads up to everyone: never hand over cash to anyone claiming to be from a company unless you’ve done your homework. Always double-check things, and if it feels off or fishy, just walk away!

I went ahead and paid before I even thought to look up the number, but something felt off so I checked online and seeing all these reviews really surprised me! The guy I spoke to, Ed O’Connor, came across as really nice and persuasive over the phone. I work in sales myself, so I can’t believe I fell for it, feels pretty daft. Fingers crossed I'll manage to get my deposit back!

I spotted an advert online and sent them my photo, then got a call from Ed O'Connor at C M Models. He was very smooth and kept flattering me, seemed quite keen to lock in an appointment. He asked for a £50 refundable deposit, but then suddenly brought up a portfolio fee of £1099, saying we could talk about that later. He come across really pushy and weird, so I told him I didn’t have my bank card with me. That didn't stop him though, he kept pushing about internet banking like he wasn’t taking no for an answer. He said he’d call back at 2pm but I ended up blocking the number and looked them up online. So glad I did - turns out it’s a massive scam. If you get a call from 02071352078 just don’t pick up, they're up to no good!

I had a call from 020 7135 2064 as well. I didn’t pick up and waited to see if they left a voicemail. Then I checked the email they sent, but it landed in my junk folder, which threw me off. Tried looking up the agency but couldn’t find any real info online. After doing some digging, I found this page and noticed loads of other people were getting the same call. They wanted me to pay a 'refundable' £50 to book an appointment, all from someone named ‘Helen Harper’. It all seemed really official and well put together, but I still had to be careful because scams like that are everywhere nowadays.

I was trying to find some details on this matter when a really dodgy number rang me up, saying I had to pay for an appointment. I said fine, I’m happy to pay, but he then said I had to pay over the phone. I told him I didn’t have a card to hand, which made me really doubtful. So, I just blocked the number and ignored it. Honestly, don’t trust these sorts of calls - they’re sketchy. Never hand over money without checking everything properly first.

I got a call from Ed and he seemed proper professional. His deal was sounding fishy, like maybe a scam or something. I’m so relieved I decided to look up his number on Google first and stumbled across all these reviews here! Big thanks to everyone for helping me dodge losing £50!!

Do not give these people any cash! I phoned Ed O'Connor from another number and the name James Scott came up instead. They’ve got loads of websites, all saying they can boost your modelling career. They try to get you to cough up a 50 quid deposit - places like Commercial-models agency, Lotus models and the rest. It’s all just one big con. What’s worse is they’re still at it, scamming folks out of their money...

Don't fall for this trick. If modelling is your goal, don't let these idiots make a quick buck off your ambitions.

I'm really glad I found this site before going any further. Thought about putting down £50 after chatting with this bloke who seemed super sketchy and way too eager. Thankfully, I came across these reviews in time!

I came across something called model guide or lotus model agency, and after searching online it looks dodgy. They keep switching their name around a lot. They ask for a £50 deposit, which they do give back when you show up for the photoshoot, but loads of people say they really push you hard to buy an expensive portfolio afterwards. Apparently it can cost over £2000! So yeah, watch out for this one!

This number called me too and said pretty much the same stuff as everyone else is saying. But instead of Edward O'Conner, the guy said his name was Edward Lotus, which seemed a bit odd to me. Seems fishy, so I reckon it’s a scam as well.

I got a text from this number saying, "Hi, Edward from NEXT GEN TALENT here. Thanks for your application. Loved your look, please call us back asap on 0207 135 2078. (Check your email!)" Then an email popped up that looked pretty official, signed by Ed O'Connor, New Faces Manager at Next Generation Talent, with the same phone number and website ngtalent.co.uk. Not long after, they called me and we spoke for about 13 minutes. I’d applied to be a model, but the chat was quite weird. They asked me to pay a £50 deposit and send more photos. So I decided to Google the company and the person’s name but couldn’t find any legit info or address. I’m not 100% sure if it’s a scam, but I’m glad I found these comments about the number here and didn’t go through with it.
