Scam Alert: Why I said "NO" to Geeky Greens

Scam Alert: Why I Said "NO" to Geeky Greens I’ve been in this industry for forty years, and if there is one thing I’ve learned, it’s that your intuition is your best agent. Recently, I came across a post on Craigslist for a "Host" position with a group calling themselves Geeky Greens, claiming to be a top TikTok Live agency. They even told me they won "Best Agency" awards for 2025 and 2026. Well, it’s only May 2026—how can you win an award for a year that isn't over yet? The Red Flags I Found: The "Google" Test: I searched for them, and the results were clear—people are calling this a scam. Always trust the research! Impossible Claims: Legitimate agencies don't brag about future awards. Craigslist Casting: While some small jobs are there, be very careful when a "big agency" is recruiting through a Craigslist email relay. What I Did (And What You Should Do): I Cut Contact: Once I saw the red flags, I told them I was NOT interested. I Reported Them: I officially reported the post to Craigslist to protect my fellow actors. I Stayed Professional: I didn't let them pressure me into an onsite interview. My Advice to You: In Hollywood, everyone is looking for their "big break," but don't let your excitement blind you to the truth. If a company feels "fishy," it probably is. Keep your photos and your personal information safe! Stay sharp, stay safe, and keep focusing on the real productions. — Grandma Georgeta God bless everyone.

If you want to look it up on TikTok it will show up. Best TikTok live agency award was received for 2025 and 2026. If you'd like to meet with me virtually next week, do so before going onsite so you feel more comfortable.
