Just looking for alternative thoughts and opinions.
As surprising as it might sound, I've been mongering for close to 2 decades now and have seen the rise of more and more scams over time. However, as the world becomes more digital and digital payment rails become more accessible and something that potential providers accept, I wanted to know if anyone had any positive experiences with a real provider that accepted a deposit to reserve their time.
I remember a time when BKS was not primarily Hispanic women from the Miami area. LOL.
I know that most are scams and they are usually the fastest ways for you to part with your money, but always interested to hear stories counter to the norm.

Re: What are your rules? And Re: Deposits beforehand
[QUOTE=KillDatAss4479;6867937]Got me kinda curious. What are your hard rules?
Mine are:
-I NEVER send a deposit.
-I prefer BBBJ. But CFS is a must for me.
-I don't spend more than $400/ hr.
-"AI" generated/obviously fake posts are skipped.
-If I Google the number and see different faces. I don't bother.
-No fat chicks!!
-If I walk in the door and am "disrespectfully" catfished, I leave (this has eliminated 99% of the asian ads for me).
-If the woman smells like hot garbage, I don't power through. I stop, explain why, and then leave (I've wasted a few hundred over the years). No second chances with this either.
-If their ad has pics of a creampie. I move on as well. Seeing a stranger's spent nut is not sexy or appealing to me.
-If I see them and have a bad experience (they are not friendly, they are drugged out, they are just bad at their craft, etc etc). No second chances ever - I do not repeat.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=JohnD89;6868671]I know a lot of folks absolutely do not send any deposits beforehand and it's definitely the safest and most conservative thing to do and absolutely eliminates scams on the front end (does not eliminate the good ole' knock on the door or run to the bathroom trick, etc), but has anyone ventured to send a deposit to someone they felt was more reliable and was actually able to complete the deed / transaction without issue?
If so, what are some signs or criteria you use to filter out the high probability scams from the potentially real providers prior to sending.
Also, if sending digital payments, what digital payments platform do you use to try to best shield your identity from the provider. For example, I know in cashapp, you can simply make it a profile name that they see but it can be anything of your choosing. I feel other platforms immediately expose real identification information to the payee (PayPal / venmo).
Any information is greatly appreciated.
J.[/QUOTE]I use a completely different approach. The method that I use for choosing who to contact in the first place eliminates the need for most of your rules. I only consider providers that have multiple of the following:
1. An ad on Tryst or P411. I haven't figured out how to verify many of the Eros or Models World ads that have only pictures and a phone number.
2. A personal website.
3. A presence on Twitter (X).
4. Reviews on TER or PD.
This usually gives me enough information to decide if the provider is my type, both physically and for personality. After reviewing all of this, I have a really good idea whether I would want to spend time with and money on a provider.
It also means that the provider is treating this as a business, so it more than likely guarantees to break a couple of your rules, in particular max of $400/ hr and no deposit. Since she is treating this as a business, a deposit scam is totally against her interest, and trying to please a customer for possible repeat business is very much her goal. I'd say that I've paid a deposit for more than half of my visits, and I've never been scammed.
I have always been directed to a nice, safe location to find the woman I expected to find, freshly showered and dressed very nicely / sexily. That's not to say that I haven't had bad experiences. For example, Fiona Ender was a huge disappointment for me, and I didn't even have to pay her a deposit. A couple were disappointing compared to their pictures even though she was the girl in the pictures. However, I have always felt safe going into the situation and almost always had a really enjoyable time.
I have broken my rules a couple times in order to see Noa and Samara, but there was enough discussion about them both on this site that I felt safe.
The major downside with my approach is that it puts me in the higher tier of providers, and they are usually touring. So, I've spent more than I ever thought I would, and very likely more than most of the active members on this board would even consider spending. This limits my activity in general and also means that I can only repeat if and when she comes back to town. But, I believe that shopping in this higher tier gives me safe and enjoyable encounters. If you do your shopping right, you get what you pay for. If you do your shopping wrong, you can definitely get screwed (not the good way).
I know that many members will think I'm an idiot who spends way too much money, but I cringe when I read how some guys are willing to risk their health and safety for a cheap QV in a seedy location worrying about drugs, disease, scams, muggings and stings.
