After reading many many complaints of their fraudulent activity I decided to respond with the following:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi Heather,
Thank you so much for your quick response.
Unfortunately, after doing some due diligence on your "Agency" I came
across more complaints than expected. I was just preparing myself for
the interview but realized that most of the people you have worked with
consider your company a scam/fraud. So, I will have to decline your
invitation.
I hope you find it in your heart to go a different direction in
life. I am a business owner myself and ethics play a big part in my
business. Without it, I don't think I would be as successful as I am
today. Thanks again for considering me, I hope this e-mail makes a
difference.
Take care Heather.

Thank you guys for posting what you did. I really appreciate it and thought this email to Heather summed up your efforts.
-One Love.

I was doing a clients hair when she told me she was taking her son to this "agency". My son is signed with a "reputable" agency. In conversation I learned that she was told they would have to pay $30 a month for their "service". I knew IMMEDIATELY this was a RIP- OFF... While browsing the web, we found this page. Thank you RIP OFF REPORT! Because A: Almost EVERY single REPUTABLE Talent agency IS located IN THE LOS ANGELES AREA- NOT Orange county B: Any REPUTABLE agency would NOT CHARGE YOUR FOR THEIR SERVICES. Reputable agents WORK FOR YOU- NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND. They are ONLY PAID (10% is industry average) for all the MONEY YOU MAKE AS THER REPRESENTED TALENT. C: While headshots/zed cards are important- ALL REPUTABLE AGENTS will allow you go ANYWHERE for your photos- NOT INSIST ON YOU USING THEIR PHOTOGRAPHERS... So to wrap it up in short: If THEY ARE CHARGING YOU, IT'S A SCAM.

Funny but the rebuttal to my original complaint is the exact story I heard when I went to Infinite talent for my interview@ I have been emailing Heather about all of this and she has been very defensive. She also gave me this link so I could read this rebuttal. I find that VERY COINCIDENTAL. I also know how to get on a site under a different name and make postings. YOU HAVENT FOOLED ME!!!!!!!!!

I just wanted to say thanks to the girls from Infinite Talent and let everyone know the pictures I took for me have opened up a world of response for me. I have booked the a spokemodeling job for a major beer company and I've used the pics to land 2 other paying jobs. I'm shooting Sat for a Lifestyle clothing designer, that's been around for 20 years. Has a big fashion showing in NY in the next few weeks. He's wanting to put his clothes up online and the pics got me the go-see. I also booked a jewelry print ad that will shoot 4/17 and run in Japan (All Silver-It's gorgeous) come this May. Posters, mailers, catalog and magazine. All of this has happened in the last 2 weeks. If it wasn't for me connecting with you these gals who hooked me up with their photographer. I wouldn't be on my way to more and more modeling gigs. Thank you so much.
