Robbery.
No name, no reviews. Asked for 150 ss Greek and she said yes. I should have known too good to be true. Setup too easy. Then inside she did a regular cop check. After handing the money over I saw a dog. She put the money with the dog and went to bathroom. Texted 'her friend' saying everything is okay. Then her 'husband' calls and she kicks me out. I say not without money. She gave $50 back. I suppose she learned to give some back.
Lost $100 easy. Some red flags were 'have we met before? And texting back faster than any other escort I've ever seen.
Red flags that I ignored:
Asked for face pic (I didn't give one, but will remember this for later).
Asked if I'm from this area ("where you from though I want to make sure I don't know you".
Now it makes sense since they probably hop cities a lot. Also asked for age / race up front.
I'm an idiot. I should have walked away when I saw her but for the price the services would've been a deal. Well I'm out $100 but not on the evening news.[/QUOTE]Hey sorry about your loss! It stinks when it happens!
Sadly you are not alone, as many guys make the same mistake. I hope that is a small bit of consolation? I think we all learn these lessons one way or another, sorry your lesson was so expensive.
Perhaps now, you understand why a few of us pound the table about learning about the hobby from others, rather than paying "tuition?"
For others lurking here, dude violated [b]Rule #1- [color=red][size=3]Never pay upfront![/size][/color][/B] He could have ignored all of those other red flags, if he had not paid up front: She would either have delivered, or put up a stink at which time you toss a "no thanks" $20 in the corner and get out of dodge.
Anyone who wants to learn the "rules" for mongering, and some techniques on "how to" NOT pay upfront, can read this short thread:

Is 15-minutes of your time worth more than $100 or some other amount one might get ripped off?
Hope this helps!
Well that's a first for me

No, you are not an idiot. Maybe to trusting, in too much of a hurry to get what you came for, and possibly overzealous. We have all found ourselves in your position at one time or another. We don't view ourselves as idiots if we learned from the experience.
There's a lot going on with this meeting that maybe could have given you clues to the end result. She asked for a photo. That has blackmail written all over it. In as much as there are things she will not do there are also things you won't do. You could have just said your modeling days are long behind you. You are interested in a business deal only. If she wants to share photos she can go on Facebook. You have boundaries. If she remains within those boundaries then maybe you can do business. Your boundaries include no personal information between you. Too much can go wrong with that. No upfront payments. No Venmo, Cash App, PayPal, or Gift cards. This keeps honest people honest. You don't mind verifying you have the funds and you will place them in a neutral spot in the room.
Let's Keep in mind there is a risk for the provider and client. Your aim is to minimalize your risk. That is all you should be concerned about. Let her worry about her own risk. By meeting at a location of her choosing your risk level goes way up. You don't know who else is there with her or close by. That kind of meeting should take you out of your comfort zone. How far out is up to you. You could also offer to Uber / Lyft her to a neutral location. That offers her and you a safety zone. If she balks you might question why. I always say never be afraid to back out of a deal if your boundaries level is violated. Part with your funds and you transfer control to her.
One issue to keep in the front of your mind is if she's providing a service that is not legal then she has no obligation to be honest with us. Agreed? To her, we are nothing but a means to an end. We are nothing but dollars. That's it. She doesn't care if we have a heart attack right in that room. She will go through our pockets before calling 911 if she calls at all. We are not sweetheart, baby, honey, love, etc nor any other term of endearment. We are dollars. That's it. When we leave she's telling the next client the same thing she told us.
She asked where you are from. Tell her anyplace but not your home port.
I would guess there is no "husband" or another handler. The reason I say that is she returned $50 to you. "Husbands" and other types of handlers are a greedy bunch. They want all you have. My guess is she took a gamble and offered you the $50 hoping you would cut your losses and leave. If that's what she was thinking then she was right. Right or wrong you did the right thing by leaving. No telling where that could have gone. It's a hard lesson to learn. I hope you don't find yourself in that situation again.
You alone are your best friend when confronted with these conditions. She's not going to bail you out. She will take what she can get. It's up to you to protect your best interest.
If you view this as an education and learned something of value then you may be able to help another monger when faced with similar circumstances. Me, I'm just an 'OL Gator.
