Upfront or setup fees
Ko te mea e mahi ai tēnei waehere
You pay the agency money before it earns you anything.
He aha te take i pā ai ki a koe
This is the single most reliable marker of an agency scam. Documented setup fees run $500-$5,000. A real agency makes money when you make money — that is the entire premise of commission. If it wants cash upfront, it has already been paid whether or not it ever helps you.
