SUPERMAN V™ EMAIL SCAM

[MALCOLM XERXES™]

The following Email fraud was forwarded to me with the express intent of duping me (& others, no doubt!) into sending money to someone whom I have never met, in order to secure an *unpaid* role in a film for which I had not requested an audition!

Mal,
thats awful! why do people have to be so evil?

OK.....

Uh, that's definitely a new one to me. Interesting scam. Thanks for the heads-up, Malcolm. I'm going to post this email warning in the 'Actors' section of my website, as there are far too many naive and desperate wanna-be actors out there willing to do anything for a shot at the big leagues.

The worst part is you know that there are hundred's of people who have probably already been duped, and are expecting to get their stuff---Those are the one's I feel sorry for.
