The entire thing is riddled with poor grammar... there's much more than just one misspelled word.

The world of models and show biz is so competitive these days that past are the days 50s 60s or even 70s when models were discovered in the street or in every day life. Get real and think can it be anything else other than scam? Our company e mails gets littered with scams all day long

I feel for people who even think could be otherwise

Don't send them an email address.
Don't send them your phone number.
Don't send them any money.
If you get something from them with an address or phone number or in the rare event, a check, don't reply but check out the address, phone, or where the check came from. 99 to 1 this is a scam.

Sounds like a scam template IMO. If you feel it's a scam, it most likely is a scam. What kind of site was it that you got this message from?
