CAIRO – Dr. Ashraf Zaki, head of Egypt’s Syndicateโ of โฃRepresentative Professions, issued a stern warning on 2025/08/15 against individuals fraudulently using theโข name of the popular television series “Choose 4” to scam aspiring actors. The syndicate is prepared to pursue legal action against thoseโ exploiting the show’s recognition for financial gain.
The warning comes as reports surface of deceptive solicitations targeting young artists andโ hopefulsโ seeking entry into the entertainment industry. These schemes involve requests for money in exchange forโข purported โopportunities to participate in the series, a tactic the syndicate condemns as “completely disgraceful.” The issue underscores theโ vulnerability of emerging talent to exploitationโ andโฃ the need for vigilance within โขthe Egyptian โขfilm โand television sector.
According to โa statement released by the syndicate’s media office, no person or entity has been โauthorized to conduct nominations or auditions related to the series. Synergy, the โขproduction company behind “Choose 4,”โฃ has confirmed it has no affiliation with the fraudulent advertisements or casting calls circulating online andโข through phone solicitations, relyingโค solely on its official pages for announcements.
Dr. Zaki and the Board of Directors are urging artists and amateurs to disregard these false claims and to immediatly โreport any instances of attempted fraud โคor extortion linked to “Choose 4.” The syndicate pledged to take “strict legal measures” against anyoneโ misusing the โseries’ โname or the syndicate’s authority.
