This fake producer/manager and horrible photographer contacted me about working with me on projects in L.A.
It turns out everything he said was a lie and I did a little
homework on him and found out he's being preying on
young girls for a long time. He propositioned me for
sexual favors and I absolutely refused what a sick old
man and he became violent and evil. I will never be
so naieve ever in life. He's crazy and stay away from
him if you are smart.

Was it your sole purpose in joining our forum to make this post?

I don't put much merit in warnings like this, without having some type of evidence... (i.e.: email conversations between the two of you about the situation with the original headers intact...etc that support what your claims are.. or multiple non-anonymous models having the same claims)

Was it your sole purpose of responding to make yourself look like the axxhole you really are?

Look I do have emails and a police report. Why don't you get off whatever trip you are on and face reality. The modeling world is full of People who proposition young girls all the time everybody knows that its really only one step above prostituition. Girls just have to be careful and don't fall into those power traps. You obviously are some unexperienced guy, because no doubt you are, that doesn't have a clue or maybe you've just taken it upon yourself to be like Eckstein. Why on earth would you take up for him!

Excuse Me?!!

First of all, you are verbally attacking the board/website admin. Secondly, you are attacking my friend. If you knew Aaron, you'd know that he is one of the fairest and nicest people you'll meet. Not only through this website, but behind the scenes he has helped and stood up for many models and kids not only for finding good work, but also in their safety and getting their prints/cd through tfp shoots where the photographer didn't deliver. He wasn't attacking you, just stating the facts that without some form of evidence, there's not much validity in your original post. It all may be very well true, but we don't know.

Look at it from his point of view. You post with an alias, which is fine, but we don't know you here. For all we know, someone can post something of similar nature as you posted with the only motive is to damage a reputation due to a personal grudge - having nothing to do with business. We don't know you or the details. Someone could very well post on another board how you're unprofessional, crazy, wacky and need professional help. How would the readers of that post know for sure if it were true or not?

Instead of replying defensively, why not email or pm Aaron with the details. Now, not only do you owe him an apology, but you've damaged your professional reputation here for all to see.

We like to get to know people before we judge them. We could very well give you another chance.
I have no lid upon my head, but if I did you could look inside and see what's on my mind.

If someone made a post that said "beware of JustMeBeingMe... she attacks photographers and steals their equipment" I would have replied to that the same way I replied to your warning.

The reality I am facing is that you have made this same warning post on numerous modeling and photography forums across the Interent anonymously... you haven't given anyone anything to back it up, and you fail to identify yourself.

For all anyone knows, you could just be an ex-wife or girlfriend trying to hurt his reputation. You could be a model that didn't show up to an important shoot of his so he gave you a bad reference and you are trying to discredit him... Or he could be a murderous stalker... I can't say either way which is true. I'm not "taking up" for anyone.. I am just going on the facts that have been presented to me.

To be honest... the only evidence I have concerning either of you is that you are verbally abusive which really does not help backup the validity of your warning.

I edited the photographers name out because she hasn't really given any proof of her claims.

I usually tend to take the models side (as this is 'primarily' a modeling site), however she gave me absolutely nothing to go on.
