[QUOTE=DrTravel2015;4684042]Here's my experience. The impact on you depends on where you are. In Charlottesville, for example, coeds dominate the pool. In a place like D. C. , you have lots of students during the academic year, but also lots of students coming home for vacations / summer, plus interns visiting for the summer.

Good times for colleges are generally early in the semester. Students are back and getting acclimated. Bad times are exam periods--especially finals, but also midterms--and vacations. It depends on the school, but late August through just before Thanksgiving is good. Over Thanksgiving, students are away, and they are prepping for finals shortly thereafter. Then they go on break. Things pick up in mid-January and are good until fairly late April, when studying for finals intensifies. Spring Break has 2 effects--the pool is down when the students are gone, but many students are hard up for cash and really want to go somewhere fun with friends. There seems to be in influx of SBs in late February / early March and more willingness to negotiate. The pattern sometimes repeats at the end of the spring semester, as SBs need money for summer travel.[/QUOTE]Great insights! Thanks for this.

So I've only been on seeking since October, and I've had a good amount of success, while running into some of the usual scams.

Girl who is in distress and needs money ASAP to pay a bill or get their car fixed.

Girl who says she can only know you are serious if you send her money before meeting.

Girl who plays up that she wants an arrangement and you talk for a while and when you are finally getting together and she is taking an Uber over she asks for you to send her money for the Uber cause she is broke. She won't accept an Uber to pick her up (dead giveaway is when she says my friends warned me not to do this bc of all the girls kidnapped from Uber. News never made public and how can I force Uber to do something outside of pickup and drop off).

I'll be honest and say early on and more times I care to admit, I've fallen for this or thought this time is different bc this girl and I have been talking for days and she shared all this personal info and mad pics, so why would she waste all of that time for $10, $20, etc.

It's got to be generational that a girl will waste hours of time and share a lot for personal info, just for a few bucks, when they were about to get hundreds of dollars.

Obviously, this will continue to happen, but I think we can work on thinning out the scammers if everyone reports each and every scam they encounter.

I believe it's against Seeking policy to sell content and I think they frown upon online only, so take a pic of your convo where the girl introduces the scam pitch and report them. Since the profile is blocked when I report it, I don't know how many or how often my reporting leads to a blocked user, but hopefully it doesn't take much. If 2-3 of us report a user it is bound to work.

Losing money is a pain in the ass, but the amount of time I've spent talking to these girls (and don't get me started on the ones that ghost after tons of back and forth messages) is insane. Although I do think the girls who ghost without explanation are also scams who catch on (or maybe feel guilty) and know they won't get money out of you.

Good luck all and let's get the scams the he'll off the site.

[QUOTE=Dimples572;4695383]So just for clarity reasons. , are voguematerial, Educated Ella & Adrianna522 catfish / scams or you just weren't comfortable with their ppm requests? Thanks.[/QUOTE]For the posts I listed "ppm," that means I think they are legit and that is their asking price. I don't mind paying that allowance once in a while, but don't want to pay that consistently, so I thought I would share. Enjoy.

I second everything this man has shared.

One addition: I've found a massive influx of SBs in Dec. Many need cash to buy presents.

For those paying cash for gifts, they need the money up front. Look for spikes in activity and willingness to negotiate from December 15 to Christmas. For those who pay by credit card, the bills are usually due to be paid in January. That coincides with New Years resolutions. Look for spikes then as well.

Anakoko. Requires $10 via cashapp before even discussing meeting up.

[/QUOTE]That should be 4.

She stated that her time on SA has been OK, but her last SD was so busy he was only able to meet up once and a while and all they did was hook up. We set up a date for the following week and I told her that I'd try to see her for more than hookups. But before that day came we texted and she prefers ppm (presumably any meet) and asked if 500 was doable. I declined; a little rich for my blood, but maybe one of ya'll want to give her a shot.

Unfortunately a number of scams I ran into I report and all of the communication disappeared but here are some I was able to locate. Some might be deactivated already, but I blocked most of them.

Profile Names only.

Scams by selling pics, asking for money or something shady.

Naughtybabygirllllxo.

Katieshue33.

CCwhite98.

Cutestudent11.

Ghosts Lots of time talking and planning and drop off the map the day of the date, sometimes as they said they were leaving. Ridiculous.

HeresAChange4 You.

Abbybaby018.

RisRis.

Julezz44.

I don't know about you all, but I'm inclined to avoid meeting up with any friends right now. I don't need the hassle of explaining how and why I happened to be in touch with someone half my age, thank you very much. (Not that my opsec should be that vulnerable to the CDC.). Downturn and more precisely the expectation of what may be coming over the next few months doesn't help.

That said, for those of you who have your acorns stored away and are single, this could be a banner time coming up to be a SD. Particularly with business travel and conferences being whittled down and cutting out the one-night stand SDs willing to put down a little more to get a sure thing when they are in town. Good luck my friends.

I declined as well. I'm assuming that one guy was too busy because he didn't want to pay 5 each week.

Was with a provider yesterday and she said can we meet Thursday and I asked why and she says there have been lots of cancellations and she is free and even hinted at being free because she is ATF and a regular. I declined as I had other things. But hearing from a few that there have been lots of cancellations.
