FALCON POWERS – Have you ever dreamed of acting in a major film production? For many, this dream can quickly turn into a nightmare, as of late, fake advertisements have been spreading on casting websites and Facebook groups, exposing aspiring actors to serious deception.
These fraudulent operations follow a simple principle: participants are asked to pay a registration fee of 1,050 euros, with the promise of a refund from the advertisers later on. But the truth is, those who register in these operations never get their money back.
According to media reports like “Le Soir”, the registration fee is also accompanied by a false promise of compensation for travel expenses, which is also untrue. To prevent these scams, individuals must be vigilant when dealing with online acting advertisements.
It is advisable to verify the credibility of the companies and thoroughly review their backgrounds. One should also be cautious of advertisements that use the names of films in production to make their offers appear more realistic and attractive.
