anonymous e-transfer

Some banks allow an alias for etransfer, PayPal, Amazon GC & Giftcards.ca which has Uber and others you can load to an account (the later can take up to 48 hours but you can screen print a receipt). Many providers also accept a good reference or your P411 ID if you have it. Great question!
You send the Amazon card code.
There is also an e-giftcard option which goes to receivers email.
:gossip:
I never thought of that! thanks!!I ask for PayPal
You can create a fake PayPal account and send money from your real account to your fake, then send to mine
With e-transfers you don't give the password until you arrive at the incall and are inside so it doesn't work any differently than cash in the sense that you can still turn around and leave if something doesn't work for you.
I don't know which one of you this was, but its not appropriate to message us on our work phone and insult us for no reason. I was simply explaining how to etransfer so that the money is exchanged at the normal time of arrival and this is what I get first thing in my phone.
I meant logical reasoning in my text, was annoyed and typed fast lol

what a loser quoting an LSAT score! ie you may as well come out and say I'm a kid with no real life experience
Thank you! I really appreciate the kind words. This person wanted to be cruel and mean, I only posted part of the conversation (I tried to nicely explain I wasn't saying everyone should etransfer), so they messaged my work number to anonymously do it instead. Running a business is not easy! I do all my own marketing, website, scheduling, planning while also being a fulltime student. I only pointed to my LSAT score, that I'm proud of, because this person was questioning my ability to use logic when they themselves couldn't even understand that I was just providing clients with information to safely use etransfers if they decide to.
Now, I understand this person is the exception not the rule! I have lonely terb and merb clients (finally got my first reviews, it's on merb) but I thought I'd make an example here because he came into my work phone to be rude to me for no reason because he was too much of a coward to do it publically.
If you're enrolled in auto-deposit, if someone sends you an e-transfer, as soon as its successfully deposited it will send a confirmation email to the sender that contains your real name (or whatever actual name) that you have with your bank.
But when you send an e-transfer to an email that isn't linked to a bank for auto-deposit, it will require a question/answer. The confirmation email sent to the sender will NOT include your real name, it will use whatever name the sender saved your contact as.
So I have my personal email linked to my bank for auto-deposit, I give that to friends and family for easy deposits. But I give my work email to clients for e-transfers, and when I receive it I just login to my bank app on my phone and fill out the question/answer and the confirmation email that is sent does not include my real name, it just says "Tasha" or whatever name they saved me as.
This, except I did change the name that shows up on my etransfer through my settings, just in case
Are you able to link 2 separate emails (1 work and 1 personal) to 1 bank account or do you have a separate bank account for work and another one for personal?
I have heard stories about people canceling e-transfer if they have not been deposited by the recipients into their bank account in a timely fashion so it's something to keep in mind as well (if you are not using auto-deposit for work).
That is just awful. Thank you for sharing.I used to accept E transfers, then a client reported it and canceled the payment AFTER our session.
My account was locked and investigated. I have switched bank providers now but i lost alot of money and my account was frozen for MONTHS.
The reason I only accept PayPal now
E-transfers can be so convenient, but between situations like that, and the possibility of being hacked (probably only a concern for large e-transfer amounts) I can definitely see why some would avoid using e-transfer. I like PayPal also since you can link multiple CCs & bank accounts to it.
I never heard about that with etransfer only paypal! If a client did that to me (reported the payment as fraud) I would definitely report it to the police because falsifying fraud is a crime. I would never screw over a client, any client who is this bad of person deserves what they get legally.
Not all banks have the same features. I know some ladies mention they're able to change the name that's given for etransfer confirmations. I'm unable to, so if I give a client an email that is set up for auto-deposit with my bank, it will send them a confirmation email when it's been deposited that includes my real name that's registered with my bank.
Again, cant speak for all banks, but I'm able to link multiple emails for auto-deposit. So I could have, for example, one email auto-deposit $ into my chequing account, and a separate email that auto-deposit into my savings.
So yes, I can link separate emails for auto-deposit to my bank account. But again, I personally just give them my work email that isn't linked to my bank at all, so that way I can just get the email, deposit the $ accordingly, and the confirmation email to the sender says "Tasha accepted your etransfer" or whatever name they saved me as a contact.
And yes, I've had my a few incidents like that. I've never had a client claim fraud on an etransfer..after reading horror stories of these things happening to other girls, I rarely accept etransfer anymore. My biggest frustration was clients not telling me until they arrive they didnt have cash and expect me to take etransfer. So I'd do it to make things easy, but then some e-transfers take up to 30+ minutes to send. So that's time I dont appreciate wasting, and the one time I went on with the session and said I'd just confirm i recieved it before the client left, I got caught up in the session, enjoyed our time and said goodbye completely forgetting about confirming I recieved the email. He of course cancelled it before I ever recieved it.
So yeah..yikes. cash only please!!
Yes! I just genuinely dont understand why/how someone could do that kinda thing. Like, it's one thing to falsify fraud and freeze our bank, but the thing I find most unsettling afterwards is the feeling like I've been violated. I provide a service expecting to be compensated. My consent is the money. I wouldn't have provided those services without being compensated. It's all just really disturbing..
