OneModelPlace is always concerned about the safety of our members. We are sending this correspondence to allow us to further investigate concerns raised by several of your fellow models.
<br><br>
Specifically, we have learned that a person established an OMP account member and began sending emails to models under the name “iCandi Productions”, including the following:

At these supposed casting calls, we are told that the individual may have referred to himself as “Randy” and/or “Mark.” However, he may also go by the name “Avi” or “Ira” and is said to possibly speak with an accent. He may have an olive or tanned complexion. He may also use an assistant that goes by the name “Lisa.”
<br><br>
Based on information received, we strongly urge you not to have contact with these individuals or this organization and to report such contact to us. The iCandi Productions website itself, at
www.icandiproductions.com as well as this individual’s OMP account were apparently established through stolen credit card information. Based on our initial investigation, the scheduled castings appear to be fraudulent.
<br><br>
We have filed a report with law enforcement, but would request any information you can provide, including the following:
<br><br>
1. Name(s) used<br>
2. Physical description of any person you met (ex. W/M, 30-40, 5’10”, complexion, hair color, etc.) <br>
3. Accent<br>
4. Tattoos, Scars, or other unique identifiers<br>
5. Stated purposed of the casting<br>
6. Address of the casting<br>
7. Date/Time of the Casting<br>
8. Any unprofessional conduct or questions <br>
9. Were you videotaped? <br>
10. Any phone numbers, email addresses, or physical addresses used to contact you<br>
11. Did you provide them with any personal information such as credit card information, date of birth, or social security number? <br>
12. Any other comments or observations you wish to provide.
<br><br>
We appreciate your prompt response to this email and any information you can provide to assist this investigation. If the suspicions of other models are confirmed, we intend to take legal action against those responsible, including possible criminal prosecution, as appropriate. If you have any questions, please let us know and thank you for your assistance in making One Model Place the preferred location for models and photographers.
