[QUOTE=Mcsylv;5581706]So I've probably just been conned, but I've never seen something this elaborate before. Girl's location is DC, but has in her profile that she's in Dallas and wants to travel and meet people. This is her profile, Looking2 Travel, but she's taken it down:

We start chatting on Wednesday. The conversation on SA is brief but useful, established what we both wanted and she clearly spoke english well, wasn't one of those "me love you long time give 200 venmo baby" type broken english chats of an obvious scammer. After a day, we move to text and she deactivates her account.
Texts were also indicating this was a real American girl. We made plans for me to fly her out today, and she did things that a real girl might if she's trying to be safe with a stranger, like asking where she's staying, telling me she's telling her friend that she's with me, etc. I made a joke about packing her taser in case I'm an axe murderer, and she gets serious and tells me not to joke about that. FEELS like a real person, because why would a scammer bother telling you her friend is keeping tabs on her and that she's not amused about getting murdered jokes. They'd probably want the exchange to go as smooth as possible and not add wrinkles that might make me hesitate. She gives me her full real name, email, phone number, and American Airlines frequent flyer account. When I enter her AA account number, the system detects she's real and a popup asks me if I want to add her travel information. So, I thought this girl HAS to be real.
Long story short, I buy the ticket. The day of, she asks for cashapp for the luggage fee and uber ride to the airport. She specifically says it's $39.43 from her place in Plano, TX to DFW. I don't think much of it, send her $70. Her Cashapp account even has her photo on it, further adding a layer of legitimacy. She obviously never shows and ghosts me. I check the reservation and it was cancelled, and a refund was requested.
It's so weird, such detail for a scam. Like, a bot couldn't do this. A Russian being paid pennies wouldn't have the patience or the knowledge. Why would a fake spend so much time ensuring their own safety in text? Why would a fake have a full, genuine and verified AA frequent flyer account? Why would a fake bother mentioning the place in TX they're ubering from, and a number like $39.43 for the ride instead of just asking for $40? Why would a fake deactivate their SA profile, instead of keep it up to scam more? Surely creating a new profile every time you scam someone has to be really time-consuming, need to make a new email account to go with it and everything. All for $70? WTF.[/QUOTE]You're not the only one she's done it to. When are you guys going to wake up and stop sending girls (sic) you haven't met money. Shit, I've sent one's small amounts like you to girls I have fucked only to be ghosted. Just stop it. I know you have a lot of money, but you're being used, and when you pay these girls $500 plus, you fuck things up for the rest of us!

[QUOTE=BDM1227;5580233]Hotels are definitely cheap in NYC right now. But the girls are not. I'm from NY but get all of my action when I travel.[/QUOTE]Shit, hotels are like $300 a night. In DC they're still under 200 for good ones. I don't roll in a fucking motel 6.

Most likely answer is that she was for real but she chickened out. With that said, let this be a lesson to never send anything in advance that you arent otherwise ready to light on fire, because that's what you are doing.

You may have had a different class or type of ticket and I know things have gotten a bit more flexible with the major airlines these days. If not, I'd honestly presume with that level of detail she just got scared.

[/QUOTE]Not a bad score if you can get 20 guys to do this in a week. What I know is that I've never met a girl that I sent something to. Whether it be cash, venmo, or a pizza. In advance of a non-compensated meet and greet. They never show.

I think her location changed to Tampa a day or two after it was created. Big red flag for me when someone changes cities every couple days. Looked into it, and she is an active Dallas escort going by Taylor Madison (though according to her site, she's currently touring in Tennessee).

Good catch though.

There are enough sims who will fall at the thought of a young hot girl coming down to fuck you without too much effort on your end. But it never happens. If you send money consider it gone, they always ghost, the ones who will meet you will never ask money upfront. I always tell them no, and they just go away, if they were having intention to meet you then they will still meet you after the no to money demand, so that's the clue, they just want your money. They care nothing about it, you're just a guy online who is fair game. In their head they justify it by thinking of you as a pig who deserves it.

They lure you into a false sense of security with a low amount. Subconsciously, you think "sure, what's a few bucks; if they were going to scam me they would go for more."
I was explaining to my kid that a good rule of thumb is if someone you don't know asks you for help, assume it is a scam. It is fundamentally contrary to human nature to ask strangers to help.

Her message. We can meet and hang, but no kissing, sex, or more than a hug and maybe hand holding.

Another scam
[QUOTE=Arty33;5569145][URL]https://members.seeking.com/member/8a56116b-8949-4d51-bbd9-56fa0c0c3bb7[/URL]
Paris babe, says she is a dancer at club indulge at Baltimore and also a student. Any experience with her? Is texting with her about meeting, says she needs 5 oo for first date to get to know me better before anything happens, then on its' 250 per meet. Sounds like scam, who actually undersells like that unless the intent is to keep the bait low enough to attract someone without giving anything back. Don't think this will go anywhere, so just checking with others.
Another flake, Sultry Sarah or SultryBabySarah she goes by, don't have profile since I blocked her. She and I have been texting for 3 weeks. She is reported here by others (can't find them now) as asking $1 k for meet. She started with 7 w / me then countered with 5 and agreed. Went back and forth over schedule, she said will meet this week, set a date, was very quick to respond to everything showing interest and excitement. Then when I was on the way to meet, about 45 minutes before agreed time comes the message with family emergency. What a boat load of crap! I almost expected it from her based on her behavior, so wasn't mad, but told her she is a fake and she started hurling words at me about how insensitive I am with her Grandma in hospital blah blah. Blocked her! She is premium and looking for suckers for her scam. She probably found a fool to pay $1 k. BTW, she is moderately cute but not super hot or anything.[/QUOTE]Her profile is gone now, but she still kept texting me planning to meet. Wasted time texting me over several days with believable stories on her life and schedule, then wanted to meet last week, couldn't and planned to meet this weekend, so set up a time. Up to then everything was going as a normal meet plan would, and she said book a hotel right away, we decided on one, after a few more messages later said she has her own lube, what?? Who says things like that, and then comes up big reveal, she says I don't do hand to hand transaction so drop it inside my dashboard while you are inside my car, after that we'll go. Okay, LOL, right, so I said I can't do anything like that. Immediately she flipped and said I can't if you cannot it's risky for me and bye. Dodged that bullet. SA is either full of scammers like this or the bit $hes that f#ck everyone like a musical chair. See my next report on that.
Sweethearrts, reported here by me and others. She's cute and petite and I saw her couple of times, went well though there were some complaints. She asks a lot but settled with me for 5, and she is prompt with me, easy to schedule and no time wasting on drinks or dinner. But, third time was when I figured she must be f#ck $g multiple SDs on same day, I know none of these SBs are one at a time even if they claim, but coming to the date with sore pu$$y is a step too far. She showed visible discomfort, holding back, pressing her legs tight, contorted face, all of which made it less interesting and eventually I lost interest. I am not wanting to be 3rd or 4th in line, perhaps on same day, or may a day before. Anyhow, done with this one as well.
Then later said first let's sit in my car for a few minutes just to make sure everything cool, and I had some bad feeling already.
