WTF Terb???

As mentioned already above, i suggest that any member concerned should be running a browser, ie Firefox, with both "Google Reverse Image Search" and "Search Image on TinEye" add-ons installed.

A simple right-click on the suspect image will catch most images if they are online somewhere. It's not 100%, but it sure cuts down on the fakery, especially on certain classified sites that some indy's tend to use.

Photos, descriptions, age, it can all be misleading. That's what this board is for, to try to gather some honest intel from first hand accounts.

Also, some Asian agencies do actually use real photos, perhaps shopped, but they are not all bs. Penelope photos at ASB are actually her. Just sayin'.

Oh fuck here we go with the victim mentality ..
Where is the Muslims to jump in next ? This is a board to get some inside info for the sex work in the city
COMMON
IF YOU HAVE HOBBIED FOR 5 minutes you know there isn’t a real pic in a Asian agencies

A naive hobbyst claims to have discovered Bait and Switch and I'm claiming victim mentality?
IF YOU HAVE HOBBIED FOR 10 minutes you know there are real pics in some Asian agencies.

I've noticed that running a simple reverse image search seems to be beyond the grasp of a lot of board members.

I keep saying that you should get a "second opinion" when running a reverse image search. GIS doesn't always recognize images that may have been altered. I've noticed that Tineye is better for that.

But as I also keep saying, to no avail it seems, it's just a matter of common sense. If it looks TGTBT, it probably is. There is no way in hell you're going to get a smoking hot Instagram model for $80/hh working out of a sketchbag apartment building or fleabag interchange motel. Try thinking with your big head instead of your little one!

As for the OP, hopefully he learned his lesson. As I mentioned earlier, there are members who have been here for years who still haven't figured out how B&S works. Or they're clinging to the hope they're going to find a unicorn, a total smokeshow charging "poverty club" rates.

Rule 1: Asian agencies never post real pictures.
Rule 2: if you think the pictures are real, refer to Rule 1.

As with most generalizations, this is not true. There are a few Asian agencies that do use real pics. Not a lot, but they exist.

Terb is not responsible for what paying agencies post. It is up to the agency to post real legitimate pictures and make sure they are authentic. I think the problem comes from too much airbrushing / photo shop because its true that agencies do use these on their photos. It is also the clients responsibility to do his research on the girl he wants to see. In this situation I would say both parties are to blame ( The client for not doing the research & the agencies for posting inaccurate pictures.

However terb is definetly not to blame ; they are simply providing a platform for women to advertise. That is it ; nothing more nothing less.

Let me rant. As one of the few legit sites for adult services, for reviews and advertising my question is. WHY the hell do you allow so many Agencies to post FAKE pics. I mean come on I exclusively enjoy the company of the “Asian” service provider, and yes typically I use this site to review the ads. But shit, I mean the pics you allow these agencies to post are ridiculous. It’s just getting frustrating from a customers perspective that even though the cost of the hobby is going up you “terb” are allowing these agencies to take advantage of the very people that make you money. Which are all us pervs. Have some respect for us and at least give an accurate pic. Or put a disclaimer on the pic like they do on commercials, that what you see is not what you will get. We already have to deal with bs reviews we should not have to worry about bs pics.

This is a free site.....why do you think that is????? Advertisers.

As far as fake pics are concerned : experience, research and common sense will allow you to figure it out for yourself and not waste your time and money.

Getting burned is part of the cost of doing business in this industry, you just hope over time you minimize those instances.

Well said and I will add that I am surprised how unflattering the agency pics are in so many cases (girl much hotter than her pics) - not great photography...

I'm again going to state that it seems like there are some members here who don't seem to learn from getting burned and go to see B&S time and time again.

Either that or they'll believe it when the lady hands them some sob story about how they're using fake images to "protect their privacy". Which is, IMHO, utter bullshit. With the easy-to-use imaging apps and filters, there's no excuse for escorts to use stolen images.
