Yep. I can relate.

I make them turn their cell phones off while they are shooting. They are here to work, not text etc. If their phone dies, that's even better.

The girl, her loser boyfriend and another guy had driven around to a number of check cashing places until they found one where the clerk didn't notice the typing error and accepted the second one.

I had a model steal a check from the back of my checkbook then write a check for 1k to her friend. When the check hit my account, I got a copy of it then searched MySpace for the name on the check. Found the model on the girls friends list and took care of it from there.
