Hi

My name is Myke Macino. I am well known film producer and am working
on a new british feature film called British Gangster Wives.

We are a massive budget film with a Hollywood cast and will be in cinemas
next year. We start film in August.

We are looking for many actresses to play glamorous roles.

You must be prepared to shoot full nudity for sex scenes on film.

If interested please email me back so to arrange an audition. We are
doing auditions across the UK.

At the audition we will rehearse the sex scenes with me and you need to treat
that like it was a real scene and done for real.

Its important you convince me that you want the part and can handle
the filming of the sex scenes at the audition with me

The film will be massive

Yours

You are totally incorrect.

"Silvertouch" has been sending such "invitations" for years.

Could that be considered a "deposit on account"?

There was a guy named Gordon who did it here on MM for two years . He used several names so he may still be doing it .

A dumb ass model I know asked me if I thought she should go for it because the "pay " was good "if" selected LOL

There is a guy in this area who tells girls he needs to personally give them at least three orgasms before they start shooting so he can get them in the right "mood " for the shoot.

Very old scam.

Scam.com's coverage of this--with the same producer name and film name--dates back to 2006, and I'm pretty sure it was old news even then.

Since it hasn't been "updated", it's apparently working...

(His Resume on IMDB is hilarious!)

Yup.

The Stage wrote him up in 2004, and even then, warnings about 'Myke' dated back to 1999.

I'd play along with it. See if he buys you a plane ticket.
Then take someone else along.
With a camera.
And a baseball bat.

Craigs List is absolutely full of similar ads, perhaps even less credible, than the one posted. Although Craigs List has the capability of monitoring such scams, or restricting them by, for example, requiring "real" Email addresses from persons posting the ads, the bosses there choose not to do so. They also choose not to respond at all to correspondence from browsers who notice the frauds, or even from victims.
