The scammers identified themselves as Rich Monetti, an editor with VueMagazine, and proceeded to offer a photo shoot job that sounded legitimate. After a few back-and-forth emails, I was convinced this was a real job offer. However, the red flag came when the person offered a money advance to pay for the models, which is unusual in the photo world I come from. See the initial email below:
