They let you make a free profile only to send you a fake response saying they are making a movie or commercial in your city and that you would be perfect for the part but they need to hear from you immediately, only problem you have to be a paid member to reply, you can get the 3 day trial for 1.99 just so you can find out more, this person that replied to your profile isn't real so you will never get a reply from your reply, and if you have the account for three day you will be charged 40.00, Stay away

If my first consent gets process, this is an add-on to that. I also sent Talent Hunter an e-mail, asking them if this is a scam and why do you advertise "FREE" everything, until you get these e-mail auditions possibilites, then you have to pay. I did mention the fact that when you sign up, through a registration, that usually indicates the binding contract, just like consenting the use of your credit card to purchase something. Using that "FREE" registration allows a membership status, if you are allowed to build a profile. No where in their policies does it state anything that helps or protects you as an individual giving out your information, therefore allowing them to sell your information to multiple third party sources. So not only they collect the fee for a bogus membership(just to respond the e-mails you are sent), but they also sell you out as well for money. I questioned them about the testimonials and about their site of what is actually real.
Well long story, they cancelled my membership. I find it kind of funny. Two reasons why. First reason: i sent them an e-mail earlier disclosing information on why i have to pay money just to respond to an e-mail that was "intentionally" sent to me, says the e-mail body. Second reason, they never responded to any of my e-mails, especially today when they cancelled my profile. I got no response, just three e-mails; All sent on 07/28/09;
1)Booking Notice: ABC "Dating In The Dark" is Casting for New Show.
2)Booking Notice: Models on a Mission Casting Phoenix Talent
3)Your account has been cancelled
BODY of #3 e-mail of notify@talenthunter.com:
Dear,

Your profile has been cancelled!

We thank you for being a valued Talenthunter member and we look forward to your return.

Sincerely,
TalentHunter Team

So not only any communication, upon cancelling my profile, account, membership (whatever they are calling it these days, or whatever is stated in the terms of service/policies), they then insult me by saying, "THANK YOU FOR BEING A VALUED TALENTHUNTER MEMBER", and then making sure i do not respond to this e-mail because it is auto-generated.
Not only watch out for this company, but for a company to have THIS many problems needs to be investigated or better SHUT DOWN!

I actually put a post up here about the new scam about the google pays. There are these people advertising about how you can make money using google. The funny thing is, in small fine print; or many obstacles to the back door to find out the terms of service. They state; how they are going to charge you, how much they are going to charge you, and if or when they are going to charge you, but mostly they express on how you cannot get your money back once they get it. WHY? Well it is simple really, LAWS in our country PROTECT THESE PEOPLE!!! Since you use your credit card, it entails a signed/signature document. In other words, i can write anything i want on a piece of paper and somewhere on there stating that i will given an amount of $1.2 million dollars in a 30-day window; well if you didn't read that, and used your credit card to buy something from me, you gave me permission to take out as much as up to $1.2 million dollars within 30-days, therefore after that, it will be a re-occuring fee of $19.99 and setup fee of $69.95, and the sleepy tax, with rental tax that your state provides will be charged to you at $99.99.
This company is the same concept, but different principle. Meaning, TalentHunter.com advertises the word, "FREE" for registration for a membership. When you do that, you not disclosed about this membership, furthermore; you actually didn't sign up for a membership, even though that is what they said! When you create you profile, it makes you feel that its real. Sorry to break it to you, but it is FAKE!!! WHY, HOW do i know this? Well its really simple, i put stuff in my profile, that no one would want to look at, let alone send an e-mail to them to audition for these roles that don't exist. The testimonials are fake, if you cannot review them fully, and they are only expressing the "GOOD", "POSITIVE" notion about the company. That is not what testimonials is all about. That is what the MEDIA does to take things out of context.
I for one is very pissed off on how these people can get away with this crap online, but yet our country is in a turmoil. Doesn't any see the big picture here? The country is in trouble, these people are scamming us and getting away with it; what i mean about that is that they took our money and we don't see it again! Our justice is corrupt and won't do anything unless there is a certain amount of complaints. So here is a country based on the people for the people, but yet government has the final say! I for one would like to start a revolution that pertains to our CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS! Like what i am saying, good, lets start by fidning out these scammers and setting them for our own JUSTICE. There was nothing inhumane for hanging people, unless you think that the death penealty of equal or more death that you created is better?
Last thing i will say, "IF IT IS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE(IN AMERICA), THEN IT IS!"
I say this as an individual, as an embarrassed citizen, as now the minority that was on top of his life, until i was screwed by the U.S. GOVERNMENT! Did i mentioned i am caucasin? "FREEDOM" is a word expressed very loosely by corporations, and government officials to fool us citizens to feel that we DO have hope, but will really have nothing. I still don't feel safe and i still don't trust the US GOVERNMENT, even with my life...... did we all forget about 9/11/2001? That was the time our government threatened our lives by allowing terrorist in our country and allowed them to exercise OUR RIGHTS!! End result, well we all know that!

We have to start somewhere, and i willing to dedicate my life, to an actual freedom; not just a front to be needy greedy!
