Guest Report post Posted February 24, 2022 As I hinted in a previous post, this problem is far from unique to the industry. On many websites you'll see people advertising items, vehicles or apartment rentals below market value under pretext, they need money quickly. They'll say many are showing interest, but if you pay immediately by e-transfert or gift card, the item is yours. But once that money is sent, communication ends. Same caution if someone ask you to meet in the middle of nowhere. Understand the market, use common sense and don't fall for pressure tactics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roamingguy 300292 Report post Posted February 24, 2022 After a re-read of this thread I was reminded of an upcoming date (yes it'll be post op but one I'm very much looking forward too) that I'm having so a deposit (2nd one) has been sent to the lady. And I've paid deposits (well in full) since 2011 (unless a lady doesn't take deposits) and never lost a deposit. So I'm going to continue paying companions by etransfer, including for this date.

Quietfun 20 Report post Posted February 26, 2022 I think a lot of you replying have never seen the level of effort going into these scams. Im assuming a lot of you live in the major cities where there is literally dozens or even hundreds of women providing services. These scams go beyond being verified on LL. Some of them have twitter accounts, instsgrams etc. I have even been hustled by ads that have reviews on CAF. I have been hustled by ads that have websites.. and because i look for an outcall. I have even been hustled by legitimate providers. That's the absolute worst when they laugh because they already have "regulars" and hustling someone for outcall deposit is nothing to them and wont affect their bottom line. It's not as cut and dry as a lot of you make it seem but I do appreciate the suggestions 1 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will roll with this narrative ! 😜 ~ Shit. You got me. You know how elite companions often don't have that many clients? I am, in fact, so utterly super-elite that I have... no clients at all!

Guest Report post Posted February 27, 2022 Here a few words of wisdom on the topic: - Some things are worth a lot more than money. - Doing everything right doesn't guarantee a positive outcome. - And no opinions or experiences will ever reflect your own. If you value something, don't give it to someone you never met. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is a whole marketplace of suppliers, but we trust Amazon reviews to help guide us to the best offerings 😉 First, Amazon reviews are too random to be reliable. You either find other sources or take a chance. Second, If a product is crap, damaged or undelivered, Amazon will take returns or simply issue a refund depending on the value of the item. Even if the process is sometimes slow, you'll see your money back. If not, there still some legal and financial options to resolve the situation. Quite different from dealing with an underground marketplace where consumer protection laws don't apply. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reputations don't always meet expectations. And being real, doesn't necessarily translate to good or safe. Can use those as a baseline, but should still do some homework.

There are only 2 mature SP in my area- one is a coke head who I had a horrible experience with. But found The other to be a pleasant surprise and stick with her now. I think the bad blood goes both ways with the SP having their share of no shows too. Keep looking. They aren't all cons! 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hardydardy 1029 Report post Posted March 14, 2022 (edited) This would all go away if the powers that be would've legalized everything and everyone when they changed the laws, in the first place SP's and clients could make their own choices. There would be no stigma's or legal ramifications for the client to report the ripoff. SW's could operate openly as they do in other countries. Traffickers etc. would go the way of the Marijuana, Bootleggers, have with lifting of prohibition and legalization of weed. Why do we look at Europe with its Red Light Districts with a sense of 'its OK' and yet we have a system here that allows for nefarious characters to profit of those who are part of the world's oldest profession. There needs to be change that protects all (SP's and Clients). While SP's have to advertise in 'offshore sites' at great expense to get the word out. This leaves everyone ripe for the picking. SP's have to trust what comes to and through the door based on a couple of texts and are vulnerable to who knows what. If things were different established SP - Client relationships would be easier and stabilize the life of the SP (no getting evicted or outed from apartments, hotels etc) the SP would have the right to carry on their work in a particular location as long as there was agreement with the landlord / facility. Many Hotels are looking the other way now and taking the money and a see no evil approach however if something happens the SP is out in a snowbank. ...... Time for the craziness to stop!

And yet, I can't help but think of everything clients have put me through as well. Name calling, threats, no shows, low ballers, sending me to the wrong address for kicks, even had a client break my door and steal my money after I saw him. The misogyny, disregard and disrespect I encounter every day is sickening. My point: it goes both ways. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes I does make it hard for us BUT we wouldn't have to ask for deposits or other means of security if we didn't have reason to I have been in this industry for along time and I have always tried to give people the benefit of the doubt and over look deposits to only have my time wasted..people sometimes like to take advantage of others when they can I feel alot better now asking for a deposit knowing I can secure my time at least Especially when I am inviting you into my personal space If uncomfortable with sending a deposit or I.d they can always contact a lady that doesn't require one 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
