“Talent” scouters

Kidnappers can rely on the egos of kids a lot. One way they do this is by pretending to be talent scouters. They’ll walk up to children and say, “I work for a modeling agency” or “I’m a photographer—I’d love to put you in a magazine” and ask the child to go with them. Actual talent scouters, photographers, producers and such do not walk around seeking talent like this. They have offices. They have casting directors find experienced talent with portfolios for them.
