    Modeling
    I have gotten an opportunity to model in San Francisco. No money is coming out of my pocket, it is all being paid for and I am also being paid. My question is should I go for it, although I am super nervous about leaving Canada, and going somewhere COMPLETELY different,around a bunch of strangers. I am turning 19 this year. I am curious to know what anyone else would do?

    First and foremost I would thoroughly check out the company and their personnel before I did anything. If that all checks out I would also take your mother and or father, another family member or someone close that you trust with you. And make sure that they are with you constantly.

    Good luck.

    I would still check them out with the BBB in San Fran and any other method that you can think of BEFORE you go there.

    If you are going to be a real model, you will have to be hired and work for many agencies. Have they sent the plane ticket, have they paid any advance on expenses ?

    It was actually a pedaphile not a modeling agency

    I am so glad that you checked further hon. Always approach these things with a ton of caution. There are a lot of 'bad' people out there be careful, glad you are safe.

    Have you turned him in I hope?

    I didn't know it was illegal to do that.

    I never thought of it, but I now see its common sense
