How reliable/safe are advertisers on EB?

[jasonlee087]

As the title states I'm curious how verified the "verified" advertisers on EB are? I'm looking for my first time, been to plenty of AMPs and now I'm branching out. Thanks for the input everyone, I've been lurking for a while now and appreciate all the input!

I will personally vouch for every lady on EB. What's that? You don't know me? Well, then, you see the problem with "verified", don't you? And what do you mean by "safe."

It is (I believe) generally accepted by posters to this website that the EB girls are more likely to be legitimate providers than a random selection from BP. But, everything contains an element of risk. No promises. You have to decide if the risk is worth it to you.

As a beginner, your first goal should be to build a reputation and get a few ladies that will vouch to other ladies that you are clean, healthy, polite, honest, and not an ax murderer.

I've been in your shoes before. You need a strategy to mitigate your risk. Here is one that I read about that is easy to understand. Open two windows in your browser, one to EB and one to the Colorado reviews. You are looking for a lady on EB who has a recent review in the review section, and also has a large number of reviews by a large number of different reviewers. This will be a good indication that she is safe and legitmate. Just remember, there is no sure thing.

For example, scanning the reviews and EB, the first name I noticed that met this criteria was Valentina Sanchez. She has a review as recent as the last week in February, and has a large number of reviews by different reviewers and is advertising on EB today. This is not an endorsement of Ms. Sanchez, as I have never seen her. Just listing her as an example of what to look for. She also has a lot of very good and fantastic ratings, but appears to not be everyone's cup of tea. This is the YMMV principle in action.

I hope this helps get you started. There are other approaches you can take. Others may wish to chime in. Once you meet a provider in person, especially an experienced one, they will be happy to answer a whole bunch of questions if they are comfortable with you. Mind your P's and Q's and they may suggest some of their friends for you to meet.

Oh yeah. Don't forget why you are there. Have fun!

Good luck.

"Oh yeah. Don't forget why you are there. Have fun!"

And don't be stupid. I'm a a little new to this too...at least in CO. Research anyone on BP. Compare them to reviews here. And most important Imo is know how to handle your self once you are with them. There are certain precautions to filter through scams and possible LE. Look through this board for these. Screening is a pain in the ass but ultimately makes the fun in this whole process. The proven providers can you give you the reference. I like more BP or newer providers that are less mechanical. Look at P411. It not much $. I won't give personal info but that's me.

[jasonlee087]

Thank you both for the input! To be honest I keep getting stuck on the risk of LE or whatever. I can't have anything like that happen for professional reasons. I'm wondering if the hobby is for me due to this reason specifically. I've read countless times that there's always a risk and we, as individuals, know what we have to lose. Anyone else in a similar boat? Thanks all!

+1. I personally have had 100% success, in terms of having a good time with a good provider, the few times I have used EB. I have had less success with BP (more like a 70% success rate). That said, nearly every experience on my "Top 10 List" came from BP. BP is a bit more like Russian roulette (as there is often no TOB info for the ASPs posting there). Not for the faint of heart. But there are some AMAZING providers there.

Have also used TNA, Eccie, and TER (when not in Denver). Very high success rate there.

Every single Lady who is listed on EB has been Verified.

What this means is we each have sat on the phone (with the person who runs the site) for a 15-20min conversation explaining to us how the site(s) work. We are NOT given access to EscortBoards.net or EscortPhotos.net until this process has been completed. Even the ads that are listing only the "Stats" and not a full color ad, have been verified through this process. Our ads do get checked to ensure we are compliant with the standards listed in the agreement we must acknowledge before we are allowed to go live.

The full color ads are paid for and the "grey stats" are free.

Hope this helps!

[Sweet Hannah]

Exactly what Justina Carter said. If you are worried whether or not a provider is verified, look elsewhere. Don't waste our time. Good luck !!!

I can understand your position. We have all been there.

My strategy now consists of seeing a great group of ladies so that requesting appointments are easy to come by, they are enjoyable, you are welcome by those ladies, makes it easier to add ones to your likes, easier to get references.

Honestly it's a little bit of work but it's worth the time you put in. Respect the hobby and the hobby will respect you back.

As for the EB question, I great place with great women. Take your pick with your preferences.

Yes, much more "verified" than BP (BP verified is does the credit card work??)

However, does this EB "verified" screen for:

• accuracy of pictures - no, even the rotating star ones. more than one using same pics as when i first hit the site five years ago
  
• drama free - no pimps, controlled substances, etc. - no
  
• bat shit crazy that are known to out people - no
  
  • will seek revenge for poor review - no
    

Could go on, but for the newbie audience do not for a second think that all is as it appears on EB or that all are somehow "guaranteed" or without risk. But definitely a step above the BP only - although many start on BP and move up the ladder. Do not assume all are safe and legit.

[jasonlee087]

OK another noob question, do agencies typically provide more anonymity? Or should I stay away from those? Something like cosladies.com? I'm In cos if that didn't give it away.

I appreciate everyone's feedback thus far. You all are very welcoming and I appreciate that!

Why say it like this? Seems like he had a legitimate question and WANTS to try out EB girls. I don't see anything in his question that suggests he is going to waste anyone's time.

Stay away from cosladies or denverladies, unless you want to serve yourself. Agencies are just like independent girls. Some screen, and some don't.

If getting caught would ruin your life, and you REALLY don't want that, this is not an activity for you. If you can stand some risk, start calling well reviewed girls, who don't mention references, or screening, in their ads. Someone will probably see you, if you're polite and don't play 20 questions.

Good Luck!

Step 1) Join P411. Nothing is bulletproof, but I think Gina has made that method as close as possible -- others may disagree, but not many, I think. I didn't go this route & instead gave providers info they asked for. It worked -- so far -- fine for me, but I wouldn't do that again. P411 signup: https://www.preferred411.com/secure//index.cfm?fx=Client_Add&ref=0 )

Step 2) Find a "newbie" -friendly provider on P411 who will see you without "Okays" but with the P411 account. Be a good client and ask her for an Okay. Rinse and repeat.

3) Get a burner phone, "hobby" -only email account and stick with the "well-reviewed, well-regarded" ladies (there are actually many). You may not see the provider you really want to right away depending on how many "Okays" she prefers, but eventually.

That is just one route albeit a bit more spendy than what Pfunk, for example, suggests. Just my two cents. Good luck.

bat shit crazy that are known to out people - no

Since this has come up again, I have to ask - does this list exist? I've had only fantastic experiences with women here, but I kind of hate feeling like there are known land minds I could trip over.

I also gave a TON of info to two providers, one I never even got around to scheduling with. I just didn't know better. But I learned, thanks to people here.

There are outstanding providers who didn't ask for anything. See a couple of them and ask if they'll give you a reference. If possible, find two who are P411 members, but it isn't required. With two references, you can get a P411 account with almost no other information. Hobby phone, hobby email, two references and you're the invisible man.

I tend to be lucky. The first local provider I ever called gave me some great advice, which got me here. I picked her from a Backpage ad, so it could have gone very differently. I really owe her, and a couple of other people here. Been kind of thinking I owe myself another visit with her too.

To answer the original question, that was part of the advice I got. EB is a very good place to look. Find someone you fancy, then check reviews. If there are several reviews, give them a call. Then pay it forward. If you had a good experience, leave them a good review.

Your welcome, as for giving out your personal info to only "two providers," I wouldn't worry about getting outed. Unless the two girls you seen have a history of outing clients or providers. Not all providers/johns are bat shit crazy. But the numbers are growing.

Thanks again everyone, I'm going to take it slow and do plenty of research. I'll keep you all updated!

Actually we're not verified. Unless things have changed drastically in the last 5 years I am pretty sure that EB doesn't really verify anyone. I never sent a copy of an ID or had anyone vouch for me. I signed up for the site and waited for the phone call and that was it. The phone call is explanatory and not much else.

The thought that EB is somehow magically better than BP isn't true. Guys need to always do their due diligence when it comes to research and ladies have to build a reputation for themselves so there is something for the guys to research. Signing up for an advertising venue doesn't always equal verified.

[Guest]

Actually we're not verified.

I once posted on TOB that the escorts on EB where in fact verified. I was wrong and Gina corrected me on this. Lucy kytten is correct, no provider on EB is verified she is legit. Do your own research.

[Bit Banger]

While EB providers may not be 'verified', statistically (anecdotally? based on reviews & 411 requests) I am more likely to have a better experience with an EB provider than a BP provider. There are other boards which engender similar trust (TNA, ECCIE). Interestingly, I would select a BP provider before booking with someone from Eros in the Denver market. I also find BP useful (though ads need extended research) in markets not covered by the above mentioned boards.

The MSM talks about the increase in prostitution caused be the Internet. They talk about how much easier it is to post ads. What they don't talk about is the improved odds of finding a safer, quality experience due to information sharing between clients. Today is a vast improvement over the print ads & street walkers forced on us after the Progressives closed the brothels & red light entertainment districts.

That's a great reply, Justina. and just what most of us wonder about when it comes to EB. Thanks for posting.

There is a risk in everything we do in every part of life. All you can do is minimize that risk, and with reviewed ladies on EB you can do exactly that. But you can't eliminate risk all together. Do your research. And if you do use BP, make sure you can find a review. Be careful. Don't be desperate. And be safe.

[Guest]

I'll third that, definitely not verified. They could be talking to anyone on the other end of the phone. You pretty much just sit there and listen as the rules are explained and that's it, you're good to go...

My advice is just do your research, if there are a few reviews from legit reviewers, you'e most likely safe.

.....

A 15 minute phone conversation does NOT constitute verification.

The only thing that comes even CLOSE to counting as "verified" is a history of positive reviews. Otherwise, posting in EB doesn't mean shit. Just ask the guys who booked with Katie creme, or one of her alter egos.

[jasonlee087]

Wait, now I gotta ask what's up with Katie creme...?

Oh, I thought there was a verification. I feel like I am always emailing a photo copy of my ID. LOL. My bad. I found the original email I received after registering.

" We need to contact all advertisers personally so that we can verify the information contained in their ad as well cover the how to's of the site. "

Thanks girls for clarifying that up. xxoxo

When I advertised on EB they never asked me for my State Id. In fact no one has ever asked for my state id except another provider. Now maybe things have changed since then. That I don't know.
