LeModeln, Inc. RIP OFF FAKE MODELING AGENCY FLUSHED DREAMS AND MONEY DOWN THE TOILET ripoff abused & mistreated ripoff business from hell cheated employees and screwed the customers even more con artist fake Boardman Ohio

Dont let the fake agent fool you too. I thought it was real and too good to be true. I responded to a add in the newspaper for models. Little did I know they were gonna take me for one hell of a ride.

My childhood dream was always to be a model. Not for fame just to do fashions shows and runway shows. I was modeling for about 3 years when I ran into this agency. I thought I would expand my options a little so I decided to go and meet them. My mother went with me just incase they tried to sneak something past me. They told me that there were all these famous people being represented by them (they had pictures of them on there walls) they told me that there would be different work for me to do everyday and that I would be working all of the time. They even had some of the models there for me to talk to. Then came the part where they told me I would have to pay an agency fee of 28.00 every month to be represented by them. I was told that my pictures would be on there website and hundreds of clients would call in everyday to request my resumes and pictures. I talked it over with my mother and decided not to do it if I had to pay.

Well when I told them what my decision was they assured me that i would make at least 500. a week, if not more so it would actually pay for itself So I figured ok i'll make the money back in no time. Ya right. I signed the contract for 3 years wich was a huge mistake. As soon as I signed with them they then told me that I was no longer aloud to have anything to do with my other agent wich really upset me. They told me that I was not aloud to work for anyone, other than them, in a 100 mile radius of their office. Well the contract was already signed and it was too late to turn back.

I spoke with one of the guys that worked in the office for her about having pictures done. He said that the price of the pictures was between 500-900 dollars. This would include a professional photographer, makeup artist, and hair stylist. I said that i would have pictures done by someone else but they said that they would not accept them. He ended up steeling my deposit from the company (not just from me but from a lot of the girls and guys) so she fired him. But then he ended up working there again for her without giving any of us an explanation. I didnt want to work with someone that was stealing money from me and the agency I was working with!! Back to the photoshoot. It was awful.

She had some joe shmoe that she knew take the pictures, her very unexperienced daughter did the makeup and hair. i looked like a hooker. She said that she gave these pictures to clients for work everyday and that was 1 1/2 years ago, to come to find out that she still has every single picture in a file drawer and she wont give them to me. she says she will have to sue me for the copyright.

It has been almost 2 years since i signed with LeModeln inc. and i have only done 3 jobs. Two of the jobs were parts in movies that i was supposed to get paid for when the movie came out. The first one came out and cut a check to the agency since that is how she told them to do it. Nobody saw a penny of it. As I was on the set for this movie in Deleware, i met 7 others who also fell into her trap. Boy did they have lots to say and the proof to back it up but it was way too late.

There is this number for a voice mail that she puts all the job openings on so if you are interested you just call and set up a audiiton. Well turns out that we have to pay an additonal 20.00 per audition we go on and the client that comes in to audition us also has to pay her a fee. She clearly stated in the beginning that everything besides the monthly 28.00 was free. Shes a d**n liar. I have been on over 30 auditions with no call backs. Thats a little funny when i never had any problem with getting previous jobs.

Well after i realized what was going on I quit paying my monthly fee. She started calling me and harrassing me at my job, my home, my cell phone, and she was calling my family. She would tell people that she had this great news about a job for me that she needed the number to where ever i was at and then she would continously call there. She yelled at me on the phone once because I told her that me and a lot of other people figured her out and she told me that I am worthless and ugly and fat and i dont deserve to be a model. she told me that no client would ever want me to work for them. For one im 5' 8" and weigh 125 (not fat at all) Please before she came along i was on the morning show live 4 times and i have done nermerous photo shoots for tommy hilfiger, ck, the gap, well you get my point. i have done over 25 fashion shows for big clients with over 3 thousand people attending. I had bigger clients that i was working with before her, i didnt NEED her in my career. I simply wanted to expand my options to see if i could get more work.

She is a very very rude, ignorant and fake person. I would only hope that no body else gets sucked into her money making scheme. She once told a model over the phone that she needed her to pay her back fees that she owed (wich was fine and understandable but you dont do that in front of the other girls) then when she got off the phone she told her secratary that she needs to pay her bills at home and if we dont give her the money than she cant pay them. She said that she owned the agency as a side job but she had a really important executive job that payed her all kinds of money but that was a lie too. she was a FREAKING CONSTRUCTION WORKER. This woman is and all around scam artist and she is getting away with it every day. She takes these hopes and dreams of all of these girls and guys and she flushes them down the toilet. Never caring who she is hurting. She is using others dreams and paying her bills with them. I just wish that in some way she could be punished for what she is doing. Please dont fall for her scam like i did. There really are modeling agencies that are real and that will get you the jobs and the paychecks that you deserve. and dont ever let anyone tell you that nobody wants your work cause you are fat or ugly cause that just means that they have very low self esteem and they put others down to make themselves feel better. Dont worry it will catch up to her in the longrun.
