Deposits?

[Mango_XX]

I believe that many reputable ladies are safe. Ones with web presence, maybe reviews, but Twitter and social media is always a safe bet. Like any business, if it’s taken seriously it should be smooth.

I always prefer cash for Incalls. About the only reason Inuse cash these days.

however the number of “deposit scams” have increased.

The problem is that the scammers that scam you guys fake book real escorts. It was so bad at one point ALL of my bookings were fake one day. I havent had that problem in a while but they dont stop. They try almost everyday, multiple times a day and they can be very threatening and abusive when they fake book and get caught doing it.

Deposits arent really required but sometimes its the only way to weed out the scammers from the real people. At the very least it can deter the scammers... but it also deters the real clients and that's what the scammers want.

If escorts dont have a method to figure out whos real and who is a scammer they unfortunately have to put up with the abuse.

I stopped accepting texting apps for bookings and I had my first time waster tonight in months.

He booked and then cancelled after I asked if he was sure he could make it several times. I cancelled a pedicure and pushed back plans even though I was done for the day and he screwed me around but this used to happen daily. Sometimes multiple times a day.

The scammers force women to have to accept deposits but generally it doesnt cost a woman anything to get stood up. It costs in lost wages but I think most real escorts are going the route of NOT taking deposits for incall to show that they are real.

A person asking for a deposit isnt automatically a scammer but 100% of scammers are looking for deposits.

The reason why a real escort would need deposits is because of all the fake bookings from the scammers on LL.

I take deposits for outcall and some people read "deposit" and lose their shit calling me everything they can think of...but its just how it is. If I dont ask for them, I get sent all over the place on fake calls.

Can anyone provide some guidance on the requirements for delays for Incall bookings? I’ve seen so many ads that ask for 50% up front for Incalls.

I don’t partake in outcall but I do understand the reason for that (uber taxis whatever). But I’m not sure about Incalls.

I don’t like the idea of giving out my email related to my EMT account for discretionary reasons.

Is it fair to say that these are all scams?

Fair enough... I understand your perspectives. And honestly, I feel sorry for all what you guys are going through.

But, why asking for references is not enough? I know everybody needs to start somewhere, but why can't you do it for established clients? (Ok, maybe I'm delusional, please educate me...).

 

[TigerFlex5]

I've never taken references because I dont know the worker referring these people. Generally when im referring someone to another girl its because I dont want that client. It just feels like im being passed along someone's client they dont want.

Some people might not see it that way but it just feels weird. Then I have to look into a girl to find out if shes legitimate.

Maybe its just me but I've never made a referral to a good client. I always suggest other girls to make bad clients go away, politely.

Ok, got your perspective. Rarely heard that. I heard it before but rarely.
Well your problem remains full. But if you have your clients with deposits, be it.

I also sometimes ask if the ladies have Twitter or reviews. Twitter is actively suspending accounts but anything other than OF is real good sign to me. Especially if someone is announcing their tours etc.

I have no issue with deposits if they can be done without exposure, but I'll never share personal information. Once you do that, you lose control over it forever.

Obviously I see why providers request it, their security is just as valid a concern.
