How do I make sure the modelling agency isn't a scam?

I went to the Eaton Centre with my friend today, and this man came up to me and gave me his business card. He said that I had potential to be a model and that I should come visit the studio, and bring my parent along since I’m underage. I visited the website, and the agency seems professional, and has headquarters all over North America! Should I trust this agency and give this place a shot, or is it a scam?

This seems to happen in places when you don’t expect it. 3 things you need to watch out for that is a scam. 1.They say you need to take lessons in modeling, if they ask you to pay for it . . .it’s a scam. If they want you, they pay for everything. 2. If they say you need pictures, and tell you what it’s going to cost . . .it’s a scam, remember they pay for everything. When they tell you, or your parents that it’s going to cost them money, IT’S A SCAM! If this so called Modeling agency wants you . . .THEY PAY FOR EVERYTHING! The only time you pay for anything, is food, clothes and whatever else catches your eye. ;)
