Jacqueline Caraballo / Marvle Models Fake Model Scout

Jacqueline Caraballo posted in a Facebook modeling group that she was looking for a face model for a paid photo shoot. I messaged her and she stated that she is a model scout and talent manager.

Jacqueline's messages were unprofessional with poor grammar. Her tone turned ugly when I questioned having to pay a $500 fee upfront for the job.

Her message to me was: "I'm looking for models between 18 to 50 of age for l'oreal shoot. Shoot entails:makeup session and hairstyling." She also asked: "Do you have any agent representing?"

I sent modeling photos of myself and my daughter. Jacqueline messaged me: "I just received email from L'oreal that I should ask your daughter if she can travel to Austin because one of there best photographer is there she will be available for the same date all this is because she had the look they want for there advert."

I said my daughter would be available and asked what the pay for the shoot was.

She replied: "Shoot for L’oreal
Shoot theme: Bold and beautiful
Shoot type: print
Shoot budget:$1100
Shoot entails: make up session and hair styling shoot pay is $1100 She get paid immediately after the shoot She would be reimbursed at the shoot site."   "Fee is $5 $500 The $500 is for accommodation and costumes and feeding That would be returned to you at the shoot site That is the meaning of reimbursed"   I replied to the message asking Jacqueline if she was asking for us to pay her $500 before the shoot. She responded: "I got you one of the biggest shoot in the industry. Your daughters face would be on there web site and I also work with marvle models and your daughters face would also be on there web site http://www.marvlemodels.com/ marvlemodels.com The $500 is for accommodation, costume and feeding And you would be reimbursed at the shoot site. Thanks for wasting my time"
