Technically you should ignore him. And you prolly shouldn't call him out and cite his mm#. Most people frown upon that so you might want to edit your post. You also should take down your im info to avoid people like that.

Sounds a little scary to me. I had an experience yesterday (another site) where the guy wanted me to pay my own way to him and then I would be paid ('if I was what he wanted"...well, at all the way across the US and back...I said NO! (He also seemed a bit strange...

Let me guess: You'd shoot and then the decision would be made that you were not what he wanted...

1. remove his screen name

2. move on. he doesn't want to provide references, and it seems he doesn't even want to shoot anymore since he is not responding..

strange situation regardless though...

good luck!

Exactly...at least that was the drift I was getting. He claimed a model had backed out on him and he "needed help:, etc, etc...so, I figured he wrote to me, he saw my profile. But...he seemed right off to be offering up reasons for this and that. Like, not wanting to "get burned" again. Plus he seemed to be leaning towards the porn end of things...and though I do nude photos, I definitely do NOT do porn. Syas so right on my profile...
