This is an example of casting red flag, read below… can you spot why it is off?
“We have reviewed your casting submission and you have been selected for the T-Mobile US, Inc test shoot. We are organizing a test shoot for this project, If you don’t mind I’d just like to check your availability with the dates below and if you’d consider working with us on this project. At The New York Fame, Inc, we want to support the creativity and vitality of the world through a creative affluent urban outlet that attracts the attention of a multicultural audience. It is our goal that we will premiere an all-time brand, which will be embedded as a fabric across the states for years to come.
T-Mobile is the third-largest wireless carrier in the United States, with 98.3 million customers as of the end of Q2 2020. The project is a photoshoot and commercial for T-Mobile. The US wireless company benefited from the twin forces of lockdowns, which made people more dependent on their phones for connection, and the closing of its long-awaited merger with rival Sprint. The deal made T-Mobile the third-largest player in the US telecoms market, trailing AT&T and Verizon, and is expected to give the big phone companies more pricing power.
T-Mobile US is changing wireless for good and as one of the most recognizable brands in the world. We’re about more than dollars and cents. From disaster relief efforts to renewable energy initiatives, we recognize our responsibility, because people come first. That’s what makes us the Un-carrier. T-Mobile US, Inc is moving beyond telecom. While our network grows, we’re leading innovation for the mobile web and the Internet of Things. We’re diverse, passionate, and have an unbeatable team spirit. The moves we’ve made for our customers and employees haven’t gone unnoticed and that’s why We are interested in working with you for a professional photoshoot to create commercial awareness about T-Mobile US, Inc brand. There is no nudity, fetish, bondage, and other adult content involved. This project is strictly for T-Mobile US, Inc.
Furthermore, the test shoot and project photoshoot shoot is November and December respectively. The Management will be responsible for any expenses incur throughout the photoshoot and your escort if you are coming with someone. T-Mobile US, Inc is expanding its products after acquiring SPRINT which has made T-Mobile added 452,000 postpaid phone subscribers in the first quarter.
The next stage to be fully involved in the T-Mobile US, Inc project is the test shoot which you will register for with a refundable fee of $125. With T-Mobile US, Inc our nationwide network covers more people and places than anyone else. And now that Sprint is part of T-Mobile, our network is bigger and better than ever.
