I uploaded my picture online on Capital Models because of an ad I had seen on Saturday 17th of June as a spur of the moment thing to see if anything happened or came of it. Following Monday, Harvey Micheals from London Fashion Models calls me to tell me they liked my photo and that they want me to come down to London for a pre-assessment photo shoot that they will pay for all I need to do is pay a £50 deposit to ensure that if booked l would definitely turn up. I thought this all seemed legit. After I got off the phone I googled London Fashion Models and a very authentic looking website appeared which I quickly browsed I then called up and booked the appointment.
I was then sent me an email which was from LFM. In the email it contained a website londonfashionstudio.net I went on the website and again it all seems legit, saying that the building is in Oxford Circus area. I called to cancel my appointment well in advance because of work commitments to which I was told I would have my money in 5 days, every time I speak to the company they keep on spinning me around and still have not returned my funds I logged onto my online banking to see that the company had taken money out of my account for the deposit using the name ‘Teseract Limited’ which is registered as a computer maintenance I became suspicious and after some digging I have come across this website exposing this type of scam it is just a way for them to get your money and genuine modelling companies do not ask you to pay for a deposit or portfolios.
Beware of the name 'London Fashion Models; ‘On Vogue’ and ‘Bespoke Models’ and the number 020 3026 5370 02038130448
