866-611-8672

They left a message saying for me call this number back ask for Keith Dawson

got a message from a guy name jean/gene phillips
he had a heavy accent and knew my name
and he said he was a creative director or something about modelling
the thing is, i have an account on exploretalent.com so i though it was legit...but then i looked this up

Same for me- Kevin Dawson

Got a call from:
1-866-611-8672?
It's COMPLETE [***].
They called me Saturday morning but I was out getting a tattoo,
Called back today (Feb. 9, 2011)
Some guy with a accent answered, background was really loud..
They transferred me to a guy named David. He also had an accent..
Oh and by the way the transferring music sounded all 'boot-leg'
sounded like they put the phone next to the radio or something lol
The guy asked me what time will I be able to call back tomorrow,
I asked if they can e-mail me some information
He assisted to talk to me on the phone.
I got curious and googled this numbed and came across this site.
I knew it was too good to be true.

I got a call from them yesterday during class.  I listened to the message and then tried to call back this morning and there was no answering machine.  They told me I was a perfect match for one of their leading roles in whatever they are doing.  So glad I found this next time they call I'll pretend to be a funeral home or something.

HI even i got a casting from exploretalent, a guy called jason called me n told me that i have selected for some auditions n i couldn't belive it, I paid $120 n with in 2 weeks i got an opportunity, Now m working on my second audition, Thank you guys, thanks to explore talent, it works

This is a total scam.  Any talent agency requesting money to make you a "star" is not legit.  Do not give them a dime!

Totally a SCAM ,... I had to tell my friend who is an officer to tell her to stop calling and remove my name from their list. She got scared and said that they do not problems and will not call me ... LOL

i guess u are one of the scammers ... SCAM SCAM SCAM

i got a call from the same agency, telling me that they want me to go to Europe, they must be out of their mind i don't even know the company or anything about them.(they was calling from California)

just got a call from 'adam' smith with a heavy accent at my parents house. no modeling jobs call their house so i was extremely suspicious. called back at 10pm and no answer or machine... not the type of client/agency has ever worked with me!

i google this number after i got off the phone with these people this is basically how the scam started.I had a missed call from this number and i called it back and after multiple transfers, i began speaking with a lady who had an indian accent and was talking about how attractive my picture was, and how i fit the casting directors request so well. She was talking so good and i knew it was to good to be true because i never activated my profile it was just on there and she was telling me all of the information that she knew about me from the website trying to sound legit. Eventually i realized it was a scam when she began telling me to pay two hundred for a year of service then she went down to 120 for six months and i told her i didnt have the money she even offered me to pay 70 for 3 months i was thinking this lady is desperate i felt as though she was a scam working her quota. She even asked if i had relatives that could help pay, even though i had the money i wouldnt dare give this random number any credit card information of mine. She told me her name was KATALYNA JONES and she is the "senior director" and her extention was #126 and she is expecting me to call her back i oughta tell her i know she is a scam lol. Thank God for Google!

I got a call from "Coty Malcom" same number as everyone else, got my info from a castimng web site.
said gthey were holding tryouts for a suppoting role in a sequeal for "Black Heart")?) I couldn't really undersatnd him, thick  Indian accent ( with a name like Coty Malcom...give me a break) said there wer no fees, that casting director would be callin back on tis sunday past( today is 3/15/2011) to inform eme of place of audiction etc...gave me a call back number  866-611-8672 with extension 121.
Never heard from them ..was going to call ...didn't instead I found this site

i recived the call last night, it was very confusing coz i did enter my info into a casting web but its the first time they call, they usually send email to u with the casting info and if u sumbit the info to the director then call. so i keep thinking and when i google the number find all u guys histories.. thanks a lot, i haven't call back and i wont.. thanks guy, nice day

received call, could not understand what they were saying, said something about an audition. lost call an did not return it.  knew that it sounded like a scam.
no company name was given just given name of an Adam Smith saying to ask for the creative director.

They told me they were casting for a movie with Christian Bale, Morgan Freeman and Anne Hathaway, and that I'd been selected for the casting as Ashley.  Also asked why I'd never modeled before, since I was so pretty.... I'd signed up for a casting website for extras years ago, but I'm not model material and have little acting experience.  When I said "This doesn't make sense," the line went dead.

Yeah a man called me he was a creative Director Mr. Martin and to call back for him and when I did this lady answered saying they had found my pics online and how beutiful I was an that I was perfect for this role and blah blah blah... and when I told her well i recently moved to Chekoslovakia.. she was like yeah we can accomodate you the'res no problem for me and then I was like yeahh but what kind of job is this for she kept saying that moving the auditions to chekoslovakia was no problem for her and I was like if you can find it cus it's the check republic now .. u bimboo and then she hung up :-/

I got the same call from Adam today as well but could not answer. Left a message and said he was the creative director from Explore Talent. At first I thought it was an April Fools prank but I did sign up at the website. I searched the number and saw all these entries. I think I will call and see what will happen fr me and post back to tell what happened.
I am looking for work, but I am not naive at the same time.

This call is from India under the guise of EXPLORE TALENT.

The site is a pay-to-submit for roles/gigs and I have NEVER see anything on Explore Talent's website that was NOT already posted in other FREE to submit sites (such as Craig's List).  When first signing up for Explore Talent, I paid for the membership only to find out I can find roles/gigs free, so I cancelled the account.  

FIVE MONTHS LATER, I noticed on my bank statement that Explore Talent started charging me again, even though I hadn't even used the site *&* had deleted my profile.  It took another month to charge back to my account- and they had charged me every month.

What to do when they call: Be polite & say, "Please don't contact me anymore, I'm with an agent," and they will never call you again.

Same thing...modeling scam.  Told me all I had to pay was $200 and I would be playing a supporting role in the Dark Knight sequel :)  It's that easy!
