Man Arrested in Connection with Alleged Casting Scam
A 57-year-old man has been arrested today in connection with an alleged scheme involving falsified documents and false acting opportunities. The arrest follows an investigation initiated by reports in November of last year.
The initial reports described a man who allegedly falsified documents and posed as a casting agent for an international company.
He is accused of offering deceptive television and film opportunities, reportedly in exchange for sexual activity.
As part of the investigation, detectives executed a search warrant yesterday, around 9 AM, at a residence in Lewisham. During this operation, documents and electronic items were seized.
The man, identified as the occupant of the Lewisham home, was subsequently arrested and transported to Surry Hills.
