No legit model agency will ever ask you for money. So yes, its definitely a scam. You should report them to action fraud.

Of course it's a scam.

If you are good enough to be a model you do not have to pay up front!

100% a scam. Sorry.

No, don't do that. Genuine modelling agencies will only deduct any fees and commission out of the payments they send you once they have got you paid work.

If you post another thread about modelling agencies in the 'extra curricular' board on MN, I think there are people on there who know about that sort of stuff.

It's a scam. My friend fell for it, we warned her, she ignored us and parted with £500 which she never saw again, nor did any modelling jobs materialise

As said above, a genuine agency will not ask you for money
