Fake Big Brother Contests: Payment Of Votes As The Audition

Any contest that requires you to first gather votes from your fans, whom have to pay cash for such votes in order to help you qualify is a scam!
Event organizers these days like to copy Big Brother’s voting style. But what is worth doing is worth doing well! Big Brother will never ask you to go and get votes to enable you to qualify. It is after you have qualified that you will now require voters. The only marketing you do to get votes is how well you win the interest of fans on screen and not physically trying to win votes from friends and family via emotional blackmail.
Some of these copycats turn the prospective contestants into marketers of the show by asking them to get votes in order to qualify. In order words, you are expected to pay for your audition with the money generated from your voters. The fact that it is possible for a contestant to easily use his or her own money to pay for the votes, also questions the validity of the results of such contests.
Lastly, how sure are you that the actual results they present are authentic? Your number of votes may be accurate but what about those of other contestants, who also took part? How can you be sure that the other results are not staged?
Big Brother doesn’t just announce results and we accept them. They go one step further by using world-acclaimed auditors like Alexander Forbes to authenticate any of their results. This way, fans can rest assured that the results are authentic.
