It has come to our attention that individuals impersonating West Model & Talent Management representatives have attempted to harass and exploit hopeful models.
Please beware of individuals claiming to offer modeling careers, connections, photo shoots, bookings, etc.
These individuals often make urgent requests for photos and personal information, may make threats to expose your information, or even ask for payment.
These individuals are committing fraud and are in no way connected to West Model & Talent Management. We recommend that you do not respond to these requests and never share photos or personal information with strangers.
If you are unsure of someone’s identity or an inquiry you have received, please call the agency: 636-527-7473.
Keep in mind:
- West will never request any personal information such as a home address, social security number, financial information, or passwords from unsigned models.
- West will never ask for nude or lingerie photos.
- West does not contact potential models through Snapchat, Skype, Wink, Tiktok, or Facebook.
- West only maintains two Instagram accounts: @westmodelmgmt and @westtalentmgmt
- West only requests phone numbers through our online submission form and we will never text an individual who is not signed with West.
- If you submit through the online submission form on the West website, West will reply directly to that submission.
- Emails from West will originate from @westmodelmanagement.com
