Online Operational Security
I don't know the answer to FarFarAway's question, but it prompted one of my own. I use Gmail and Google Voice to contact the SB's. Google Voice is tied to my burner number. So I give the girls my GV number to text me, nad usually read the texts on my computer, not on my burner. GV has not connection to me, burner was bought with cash, prepaid TracFone that I pay with debit cards I bought for cash. I use a VPN to log onto Gmail and Google Voice.
Lately, almost every time I try to log into Gmail, it tells me that it doesn't recognize the device I am using, and wants to authenticate me with a text to the number on file, which is my burner number (note, I did NOT opt into two factor authentication as a regular thing). Sometimes Gmail gives me the option to authenticate by another method, like confirming the email I used to register or the phone number on my burner. But usually, the only option is to get a text with a security code. No doubt the reason Gmail doesn't recognize me is that the VPN is using a different IP address every time. Funny thing is, this never bothered Gmail until recently.
Using a text to authenticate is a pain in the ass for me. When I am at home, my burner is normally stashed in a very very safe place, and I don't want to have to dig it up a few times a day to check texts.
Anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions?
Yes any call made from GV app or web site will have your GV # as the caller I'd
[QUOTE=FarFarAway;4255973]I am asking for advice / experience among Google Voice users. I frequently access my texts from the webpage voice. [URL]google.com[/URL]. It has 3 tabs, messages, calls, and voicemails. When you go to calls, you can see all of those you made or received. If you click one of those, you receive a message that it will try to call that # and to provide a # where it can connect you. My question is, do you think this is blinded from the other caller? In other words, I am sitting at home or in my office, could I use this to have a call w / a SB from my landline but have it appear to her as if it is coming from my GV #?[/QUOTE]You do not even need GV app or web site to make a call using your GV # from any phone dial your GV # and while the Google greeting is playing press 2 to a make a call and follow the instructions. I do not have a PIN set up and my GV # is on speed dial on my "main" phone so it is just 2 button presses before I can dial any US number for free! Of course I delete the call to my GV # from the phone history after the call.
You do not really need a burner phone with Google Voice

Of course the carrier will have a record and if there is a chance that someone e. G. SO may review then better to use a burner.
I used Visa Vanilla this week
[QUOTE=Grafenberg;4263455]What payment method is currently used, I read reports that the Visa vanilla cards no longer work?[/QUOTE]It was a fixed $ amount card, not one that you reload. That might make a differencer.

I think it's for AT&T users.

Almost a success, and bridges ablaze
Several weeks ago I met this 23 yo who was new to SA (I had to teach what is a M&G). With a college degree in a useless field she had a low-wage job and wanted to try cashing in on her beauty. Her boyfriend, from whom I was to be a secret, didn't give her money. Very intelligent girl with an amazing body, one of the best bodies I've ever had sex with.
At the M&G she suggested $200 per visit but she was to think about it. After a couple weeks of chatting and thinking she told me she was very frustrated by the site, with the usual complaint about aggressive guys and "creeps". I'm sure it's none of you gentlemen reading this. She told me I was the nicest guy she had met, but she had a lot of anxiety. So I had an idea which she agreed to: I could date her platonically for a finite time at half price ($100) until she made up her mind. It seems like a good idea for the type of girl I'd like to date.
After just one such date she texted me that she wanted to be my SB and she deleted her account on SA. Unfortunately, then the rinsing began, more proof that nice guys finish last. Her new price was now $300! To seal the deal she sent me naked mirror selfies. Then on the morning of the date she asked for a $100 tip with a promise to come down to $300 on subsequent dates. To the detriment of my anonymous handle's reputation here I confess that I caved in. However, the sex was fantastic, a great memory, and she was very sexual. To make a long story shorter, she subsequently made more financial demands, which I refused, and then she cut me off with a good-bye message saying that if she ever had an SD again, that "what I ask for, I get". I was always polite. I think that basically for the amount of money I am able to spend she didn't like me enough.
On another note, I contacted a previous SB named Mary who had quit me for the Nth time due to moral qualms. In some ways it was a mistake, but I wanted to check on how she was doing because we'd had unprotected sex. I'm responsible that way. She was at first polite and neutral but a few hours later I received a hate-filled diatribe that started with "Slave Master!" (I'm white, she's black) followed by accusations that I had manipulated her and how disappointed she was for "catching feelings" for such a "fucktard" as me, etc. I didn't argue with her but just said I was sorry that I had hurt her. I haven't heard from her in 2 weeks since then and I certainly won't bother her again. Bridges thoroughly burnt!
