Check Scam Alert

There is a popular check cashing scam preying on members of the film community.

Scammers will find your name and contact information on production online job posting sites and/or online directories like the Nevada Production Directory, Craigslist, etc.

They will engage you through email or text asking for your resume and offering you a position with attractive rates of pay for various production positions with vague details.
