Am I scam magnet or what? 

Supposedly "Staremodels" is owned by Elite and opperates out of Chicago.  They have a website but is "private for photogs and models only" They wanted all these non-pro pictures of me without my head in it for lingerie stuff.  Beware.... plus their e-mail addresses are aol lol

general rule is always ask for their phone number and refrence it with a white pages listing. If it is a legit business the first clue (not the die-hard decision maker) is always to see if they actually are listed as a business. Most scams don't even bother to look decent, so common sense usually weeds them out quite quickly.
