Model Talent Group Unscrupulous Scam artists that prey on children and young adults trying to fulfill their hopes and dreams ! Kansas City , Missouri

Yes, we fell for it as well!! A talent scout from MTG was at a pageant we were attending,obviously trolling for parents and their children in hopes of luring these hopeful victims into their scam. So very convincing, we set up an appointment and met with "Tasha". The interview was very upbeat and positive and nothing lead us to believe this was anything but a reputable Modeling Agency, with our foot in the door for future endeavors. My daughter has ALWAYS had hopes and dreams of entering the larger scale acting, modeling and entertainment world beyond her numerous local castings. She was so excited that this was FINALLY the opportunity she had been waiting for! So we signed the $39.95/mo for 18 month contract to FINALLY allow her to spread her wings. Then came the photo shoot. Once again, several candidates of various ages were there trying to ,also, fulfill their dreams. This day heightened my daughter's anticipation of the new opportunities ahead. The photo's were an additional fee of approx $350.00, to start her web page for potential clients to view her photos in hopes "she would be the one!" Six months now into the contract, no calls: actually we cannot even get them to call us back!(After 8 attempts of leaving messages on each extension) .Now, reading all these other reports...what are we suppose to do? If we choose to cancel the contract, it is a $400...or continue the contract for the $39.95/mo for another year. Either way we are screwed...but the most upsetting point is the disappointment and upset ,as well as humiliation my daughter has suffered as a result of this!!! I can only pray justice prevails and this company is shut down, preventing others from suffering the same injustice! Any help ,advise or input into our situation, as well as others being taken by this company are sincerely welcome!
