if they ask for money
if they want you to take new headshots from their photographer
if they ask for phone call fees
if they tell you you're going to be the new miley cyrus
the main thing is money they should never ask for money!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Don't pay anything to your agent!. They make money when you make money!. That's the most sure-fire way to tell whether it's fake or not!. Even headshots!. They can suggest you buy some but they cant force you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
