What would you do ?

17 posts in this topic

I found a provider who is going to be in the area- a traveling provider.  Upon a google search of her phone number a number of things came up under the heading of scam and law enforcement.

I know you can't believe everything you read on the internet but.....I find it hard to believe that a provider would not know what comes up on her own Google phone number search......

thoughts ?

There are a number of websites that use bots to scrub provider ads and phone numbers from backpage.  They then post these with warnings like "Danger:  Susie Creamschmear has been busted. She's now working for the police!

They leave the info up, hoping to extort money from the provider to get it removed.

It is a total scam.  Ignore.

FFS how many times do we need to go over this?

That website (bustedescorts.com IIRC) is a friggin' scam.  They crawl BP for numbers and put them on the site to extort money from providers to have the 'alert' removed.

Is she on P411?  If yes, ask Gina if all is well.  If not, she should be and so should you.

I say pass. Way too many wonderful local ladies with excellent track records to take a chance on something like that. If your gut says something feels strange then trust your gut.

I agree with H2O.  In a few months if she has a some more reviews you can always reapproach her.  Otherwise make sure you trust whoever reviewed her.

I sure if you search the website's name on this board, you could have found this information.     

By not doing so, you look like a ass.

I never made mention of that website- In fact it was not one of the ones that came up on my search. I believe it was Long Time to threw that web address into the thread.

Escortsbusts is one of many but the basic idea that All are scams.....

For the providers themselves it takes quite a bit of efforts to remove info from the scam sites.

Well why don't you tell us what site you are talking about?  You are here asking for advice but intentionally being cryptic.

Help us to help you.

Not on 411, only has 1 review on TOB- I reached out to the reviewer

 

Perhaps some guys feel more comfortable PM you than writing a review. But there's not enough info to know who you're talking about.

That would take a 411 and posting the info here would be in the wrong forum but I do agree with you.

I specifically did not mention the provider. I felt it was not the way to handle this question and not fair to her. 

As for me not searching the board for my question.  Point taken and in the future I will dig deeper prior to posting but I do appreciate the feedback even if I was deemed a ass 😄

The benefit of creating a 411 along with your own research is to glean additional info. BuT in doubt I would say you went it the right way by being cautious of any info that might hurt an otherwise respectable provider.

Exactly what Yorick said.  There are MANY scam sites claiming various escorts were arrested, are part of sting, are working with LEO, etc.  They are ALL scams, harvest their info from usually BP and represent no reason what-so-ever to hold off on a lady you are interested in.  Most ladies that have ever posted to BP are on these sites, but it means NOTHING. I have never yet ran into a legit and believable "she is working for leo" site.  Not one.  Scam on the other hand, yes red flag but only if contained in a review from a reputable site - here,  ECCIE, TER in a pinch.  And then still shaky depending on reviewer. :cool:

You certainly weren't by any that remember being fairly new and that have any interest in being helpful.  Perfectly reasonable question.  As to covered here before ..... what hasn't been? lighten up on the guy.

Lastly, by all means a specific 411 post about specific lady WITHOUT the reference to meaningless scam site info could be quite informative for you.  You were quite correct in not repeating derogatory info without being certain it is correct.  

Good luck!!
