[QUOTE=WhiteBear20;7456804]So I found a (reviewed) provider on PD. I'm experienced enough that I can sift through the fake reviews, and can get a good read on the provider via text messages. I'm also very picky about who I'll let come to my house. Because it's my house. Most of us here are locals without anonymous and risk-free hotel rooms.
This provider showed up and did everything I hate. She wanted more money ("a tip" before anything even started) and she wouldn't do the thing she was coy about via text ("we con talk about that when I get there honey, but I'm very open-minded! And even worse, her pics were pretty far from reality. Oh, and she had her girlfriend waiting in the car outside.
All of these things ruined the mood for me and I was no longer interested in anything with her. She'd made it to my room at this point. I calmly told her she'd ruined it for me due to the negotiating. She acted like it was my first time and should have known better. I gave her $ for gas and time and sent her on her way. She left in peace and didn't complain. I actually am a long drive, so that amount seemed fair.
Here's the thing. Most of me wanted to give her nothing as she misled me the whole time. And in a hotel I'd have tossed her right out and not given it a second thought. And for an incall I'd have bailed. But this is my home, and she now knows where I live. I wanted to keep the peace and not worry about her returning pissed off and doing some damage. $ was worth it to not have to worry about her. Of course I could also post a bad review. But she still knows where I live.
So. What say you, members? Worth the $? Should I just have tossed her and taken the risk of retribution? What am I not thinking of here?
I'm not Senior but I've seen many providers and am hardly a newb. This interaction has stuck with me. I don't want to post her profile just yet.[/QUOTE]Red flag phrases: "we can talk in person" & "I'm very open-minded" which are really euphemisms for "I'll agree to anything over the phone as long as we meet in person first" & "get ready to get upsold a lot".
I'd post them here and the scam reports thread so that this business practice becomes less common at least.
Personally, I'd have thrown her out as retribution but like you said, not a great idea to make an enemy for no reason.
