Philly Sugar

Philly is the dreggs.

If you can't confirm she's a legit single mom, a college girl or atleast has a car and drives. AVOID.

[QUOTE=OverKill418;5721496]I honestly think much of it is a control game. I did have one that I was seeing a few months, she asked me to cover her emergency dental bill. I did, thinking after a few months, why rip me off now? I also just lost my mom and was kinda distracted and thinking what kind of degenerate would try and scam me now? Well she ghosted after that. Another lesson learned. She actually called a few months later saying that she was sorry and felt so bad. She wanted to come see me and make it up. Then asked for 400 $ to cover her college tuition. I said no and blocked her. She started messaging me on Facebook, calling me from burner numbers, calling from her work phone ect. Begging me to take her back and that she learned that she needs to make amends and be a better person. All bullcrap.[/QUOTE]

Wow! Sorry to hear you had a girl stalking you on FB, calling from burner numbers, etc. Something like that is why I have a Sugar identity and why, to me, OpSec is so critical. Text / Voice App layered on top of a burner number is my approach. I find a wacko like that it's time to get a new App number. IF that fails, the Delaware River figures in the future of the phone and a new burner. Start over. Hope you can eventually lose this girl. Good luck!

Haven't seen her on SA for a while, I just hopped back on this month. It's all good, I'm divorced, nothing to hide, was kinda funny seeing her go through such dramatics. She much have run out of marks to grift.

[QUOTE=Runner8;5721446]think that once we have been together a time or two they are entitled to ask for an advance at any time[/QUOTE]I learned this lesson with my first Stripper SB. We were cool at first then it was like a faucet. She wouldn't leave me alone. Even called the wife. Tg for cool wife. Any who.

Best app ever. I tell them I use it and that when it is on, I am playing. Cuts those calls down. Textfree. Us.

This is about SA profiles in particular. I've noticed a pattern where someone claims to be "new to the area", they are very attractive (so that's 2 red flags), are quick to reply to any contact and then, after just one or two exchanges, ask for your cell phone number. (3rd red flag). I don't have a burner or an app, so I usually ignore fast requests. Especially if they didn't view my profile (but I know you can stop those notifications if you want). Anyway, two days ago, one of them gave me her number (Boston area code despite the stated DE location) and asked for mine. Instead of ignoring her, I let curiosity get the best of me. I asked her where she was located and she was able to respond consistent to her stated location on the profile, but then I ignored her after that anyway and she blocked me. Yesterday, a very TBTBT candidate showed up and again, rapid response to exchange cell phone numbers and meet. I answered her request for my number by writing something along the lines of "I'd rather communicate on this platform at least for a little longer, if that's ok. " I was immediately blocked.

So my question is, What do they get out of the "scam" to get your cell phone number? Sell it to solicitors of extended car warranties? What else can be done if they simply have your number other than doing a reverse search and finding out your name, age and where you live? I'm sure I'm coming across as a moron but I thought I'd ask. Please be gentle.

I believe they are bots or scammers. A phone is valuable for scammers as they use them to send malware links to your cell hoping you will click on them.

You should definitely get one of the following- a burner phone, google voice, WhatsApp, or any number of texting apps. Using your real number is foolish.

Be Safe.

Please be gentle.[/QUOTE]Several years ago there was an outfit called "Exposing Johns" that posted on CL & BP. They got dudes to respond to adverts and send texts about sex for money or sex acts they wanted to perform on the "girl", using their cell phone numbers. For those that could be I'd'ed through SM or other means as IRL people, the site posted their IRL name and phone number on a easily search engine found website. Nothing like a spouse, girl friend or potential employer finding your explicit texts on that website! But alas they were good guys and for $500 payment would scrub your information off their site! I see no reason why this kind of scam couldn't work on SA, after all women are free members.

Just because you haven't thought of a scam, doesn't mean the next oe isn't just around the corner. Feel free to monger for escorts or sugar babies using your real name & number. Just be prepared to suffer consequences.

One should follow the same "rules' as online mongering when on SA too.

Not sure how the OP does it without a burner but when you discuss allowance it should be off the site or else some disgruntled chic can report you and get you banned for talking about allowances and $$ A lot of the pros on there will quickly try to move you to text for the same reason. They have probably been reported before so they move off the site to talk $$ They don't want to waste time chatting it up if your allowance is too low or if you don't seem serious.

Be Safe.[/QUOTE]I used Pinger. Basically a fake number for texting and in a pinch as a phone. When I was still married I buried it deep in a folder on my phone and turned off all notifications so a "new message" notice wouldn't pop up that my wife could see. And it has a block function, so if someone goes off the rails you can just block her.

Any info on SA Saint?

Messaged and immediately told me to text her at (610) 931-8796. So far $$ so kinda steep.

I don't think an out of town area code is a red flag by itself, unless she's saying she was born and raised here. Moving to text quickly isn't really a red flag -- I want to get them to text as fast as possible to stop wasting time and not risk losing their attention. I don't want to sit on SA all day waiting for replies. And I don't know why you wouldn't get an app -- Google voice is free and you could have a number in the time it takes to read this.

But in extreme cases, you just dump the burner and start over. Less of a headache than burning you IRL phone. But yeah, stuff like layering an App on an IRL phone works, until it doesn't. There are always ways to take short cuts with the rules.

Point is a very active poster here did what you did. Layered an App on his IRL phone. Problem was that often the App failed. Unfortunately the App failed while his SO was borrowing the phone and as a result he's no longer with us.

I know we all tend to take technology for granted and assume it always works. But if it doesn't, then one has to face the consequences. So it is easier to just get a cheap burner and layer an App on that. Seems to be the best OpSec we have these days.
