All About Signing Tour & Storm Leaders

2009-10-30: Many of you know that I helped out with the BYU Midnight Release party. At first, I thought we'd see maybe one to two hundred people, but nothing like the likely four hundred plus that entered that bookstore. Walking down the line handing out materials and just engaging with fans was a blast. The Bookstore was very helpful and really put themselves out there to make this a great event, doing their best to help us get the live feed up and running. If you missed the event, or some of the latest events, you can read about them at the links below. Thanks go to TOR and to Jason and Jennifer for getting this all set up!

Midnight Release - Be There!

2009-10-16: 12am - Tuesday morning, the 27th. Utah has the pleasure of being the first location for The Gathering Storm book signing tour. So, come get a book hours before your fellow fans, meet Brandon, get it signed, and introduce yourself to me if you have any extra time. I'm already preparing another Asmodean question.

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


Myke Macino
CEO Silvertouch Pictures Hollywood & London

apparently the scam actually dates back to about 1999, but still pops up everywhere.
the sad thing is, that probably a few people will still fall for it..

yeah, the place where I found that scam had all those links too, and a newspaper cut from 2004.

just HOW stupid do you have to be though..
I know there is a lot of model scams going round, people offering to pay you about $6000 for some little job, and apparently you'll become famous, too.
but SEX scenes? ..

It's a classic porn industry entry level "recruiting" tactic. The sad part is that they keep making people dumb enough to fall for it.
