You’re not just a model—you’re a brand. And brands don’t hand out their passwords to just anyone! But what happens when a tempting offer from a 18+ agency lands in your inbox, and you think this could be your big break? Let’s dive into which agencies you should run from and which ones can actually help you become a star on platforms like OnlyFans, 4based, or VISIT-X.
How They Scam You
Seems simple enough, right? You sign with an agency, they promise you tons of subscribers and money, you make content, and everyone’s happy. But not so fast! Scam agencies have turned it into a science to leave you high and dry.
1. “No Contract Needed—We’re All About Trust!”
If someone tells you a contract isn’t necessary—run. Agencies that offer work without a contract typically don’t hold themselves accountable and can do whatever they want with your account. You could lose access to your money, personal data, and, worst of all, your subscribers.
2. Locked Out of Your Own Account
Imagine this: you’re working with an agency, they’re supposedly helping you grow your account, but suddenly you realize you don’t have access to it anymore. They’ve changed the passwords, and now you can’t even see your messages. All the money goes through the agency, and you’re left with nothing.
3. Fake Promises of Big Gains
“We’ll get you 1,000 subscribers in a week!” If you hear something like this, it’s likely a trap. Scammers often set unrealistic expectations, reeling in inexperienced models hoping for quick money.
4. Shady Contract Terms
Some agencies might sign a contract with you, but with clauses that’ll make your head spin. Vague conditions and complex payout schemes will have you working on the edge while someone else rakes in the money.
How Not to Get Scammed
If you want to avoid falling into a scammer’s trap, here are some practical tips:
1. Do Your Homework
Before signing anything with an agency, take time to research it. Google reviews, look for social media comments. If the agency is legit, it’ll be out in the open, not hiding in the shadows.
2. Always Read the Fine Print
Even if the contract looks boring—read it from top to bottom. If something’s unclear, get a lawyer involved. Don’t allow anyone to manage your account without clear rights and responsibilities outlined in the contract.
3. Talk to Other Models
Social media is your best friend when it comes to gathering intel. Chat with other models who’ve worked with the agency. They’ll tell you what’s up and warn you if the agency is involved in anything shady.
4. Keep Control of Your Account
Never hand over your passwords or personal info unless it’s absolutely necessary. If an agency demands full control of your account, it’s time to reconsider whether you’re taking too much of a risk.
5. Don’t Trust “Quick Success” Promises
Building a successful modeling career takes time and effort. If someone promises you instant money and hundreds of subscribers, it’s probably just hot air. Real professionals will help you build your career steadily, not through shady shortcuts.
How to Spot a Good Agency
Good agencies don’t hide—they have a reputation and happy models to back them up. Here are a few things to look for when trying to identify a trustworthy partner:
1. Transparency in Their Work
Professional agencies are always clear about their terms of cooperation. They have a solid contract with clear rights and obligations, they don’t demand full control over your account, and they don’t make outlandish promises.
2. Easy to Reach
A good agency is always available for contact. You can get your questions answered any time, and no one is ignoring your messages or hiding behind silence.
3. Proven Experience
Check out who the agency already works with. If they have well-known models in their portfolio, that’s a good sign. Experience working with platforms like OnlyFans, 4based, and VISIT-X also plays a big role.
4. Real Results
Trustworthy agencies don’t promise overnight success, but they can show real case studies of their clients who’ve achieved success through their cooperation. Pay attention to the numbers and testimonials.
Unsure About Agencies? Try Going Solo!
If you’re still unsure about agencies, why not take control of your career yourself? Running your own account may seem overwhelming at first, but it’s not as scary as it sounds. Sure, it’ll take time to learn the platforms and understand how to attract subscribers, but at least you’ll always be 100% in control of your career.
