Wow!!! What a great scam!

This is a direct copy and paste from an alleged 'booking agent/photographer'.

Followed by my reply, I have yet to hear anything back. I assume he wasn't ready for any sort of intelligent reply.

Please spare me the opportunity, as I'm not into cashing fake checks,
giving banking information out or being strung along on a useless ploy
for you to drain my bank account for some ridiculous amount.

I appreciate you taking the time out of your oh so precious day to
troll through the model mayhem pages in order to attempt at praying on
a few under intelligent aspiring models with promises of riches and
stardom in search for one that might fall for the scheme, scam, game,
or whatever you may so choose to call it.

I also appreciate the efforts that went into the plot of it all and
the drama and the copy and paste of the generic offer that you've come
up with.

What my questions to you are,
How many people have actually fallen for this?
Would you say that if you invested this amount of intellectual
manipulative genius into a legitimate business eg actually becoming a
real photographer or agent, that you would actually have more success
and more money without guilt or stress?

What an ass hat!
