Complete newbie. How to avoid scammers
December 17, 2023 06:23
Hi all. It's been on my mind for a few years now to hire an escort. I've finally decided to take the plunge in the new year.

Do those of you with some considerable experience have any advice I could use for avoiding scammers and time wasters? I am asking both clients and service providers, who might have any tips for me.

I don't have a car anymore and rely on public transport. So to get messed around at the last moment would be twice as bad for me. I live in the Scottish Highlands so I also have to travel a distance by train, (it's 70 miles to Aberdeen which the closest place with any escorts, from me in the Highlands). Edinburgh and Glasgow are way too far.

I know about AW and VS. But I have also heard that they're very unreliable for real women. Ideally I'd like to meet up with an attractive younger woman, but more important than that, is there's a real woman there at all, and not a scammer.

Any advice would be great.

Cheers.

I would be tempted to do a search for escorts/companions in a major town near to you and arrange a hotel room for at least one night that coinsides with the date you have arranged.

It can take some planning but hopefully will be worth it..

I am still buzzing from my meeting with a new to me lady i met yesterday here in London so go for it but i keep away from AW/VS etc and use well known independent ladies via Cherry Girls etc.

London is full of agencies and independents so perhaps really push the boat out.

Keep an eye out for Pamela Gorgeous, she was/is in Aberdeen for a couple of weeks but said after that she was going to London for a few weeks break, not to work. She likes Scotland but not Edinburgh or Glasgow so goes around smaller towns and cities. Said she'd be back in the new year. The only problem would be if you met Pamela you'd think they were all like her and it would be all downhill for evermore. She's a fair skinned blonde Brazilian of 28 and is the most beautiful and best escort (in the UK) I've met in nearly 50 years, when it was MY first time. Her friend Bianca's nice too. She uses her own genuine pictures on Viva Street and Adultwork but they don't do her justice. She's incredible.

Other than that the best bet these days as I've said in previous posts are the Brazilians, who usually use genuine pictures and all seem to be keen to give good service. Plenty of them in your area and north of the border generally.

The Asians on VS and AW - which is all you'll have same as me - always use fake pictures or ones taken of them years younger. But still worth a go if you like Asians, as I do. They're usually cheap at £100 or £120 and are pleasant and try and give good service, and some are ok looking, but are never the stunners advertised.

Other than that you'll have to take your chances. The worst of the post covid days are past and I think things are improving again. I wouldn't however set out on your new adventure thinking in terms of "scammers" which is a bit hostile and negative. The worst that can happen to you is you'll spend an hour or whatever in the intimate company of a woman who may not be what she looked like in her advert. That's maybe not ideal but she's not trying to steal your house.

The experiences you have if you get stuck into it properly - every couple of weeks at least - will certainly brighten up the Scottish winter.

And go for it! I would add. New punters in more distant areas from the major cities are always welcome to see. If we didn't give these ladies the business they need they'd stop coming here, and then where would we be.

And if you are new to this, though you may naturally be a bit nervous with a trembling cock the first time, forget about all the scare story bollocks you read about - NOTHING bad will happen to you, no pimps, no threats, no druggy crazy females, it just doesn't happen 99.99 per cent of the time and has NEVER happened to me in the UK - and certainly not in your area. You quite possibly will have a very good time, but the WORST thing that could happen is that the lady is not who you expected and you may leave slightly disappointed. Though I vividly remember the very first escort I had was a fat plain trot in her late 40s or thereabouts and I thought it was fantastic.

Thank you. This is all very useful information.
When I say "scammers" my biggest fear (besides being mugged or something) is the considerable time and cost to get to Aberdeen to find no one there. I am not too worried about the woman not being exactly as described. Inverness is about half the distance, but from what I have heard, there's far fewer ladies working in the area, compared to Aberdeen, with it having a lot of workers from the rigs.

AW and the other site are advertising platforms, some great ladies other scammers.

Window shopping is fun, don't send to may emails, that makes you look a time waster, a phone call is better and you can judge if you and the lady get on.

The more established escorts with a lot of feedback tend to be more reliable.
Re: Complete newbie. How to avoid scammers
December 18, 2023 12:07
Thanks. How reliable would you say the verification checks on their profiles are? On AW.
I did a search recently with that option, and a couple popped up in Aberdeen.

When escorts join Adultwork, there`s all sorts of verification/identity checks - but that`s no guarantee of service.

There are feedbacks that people leave, problem with that is if you leave a negative, good chance you will get a negative back so people don`t leave them.
If you have a negative. when you book someone else, she`ll see it and could put her off.

Tend to get a lot of Romanians in the likes of Vivastreet, ignore them, everything is fake.

If the girl that catches your eye, phone her up if she`s got a number listed, get a better idea of what she`s about as opposed to emails.

Thanks. I've read that a few times re Romanian girls on VS. I'll keep that in mind.

Good luck Mike! 90% of my punts are good. 5% terrible and 5% fantastic. There isn’t much correlation between price and service.

Do your homework, scrub up well before the visit and treat the lady well. You can’t expect a GFE if you are horrible to her.

If your region is so much of a desert, has it occurred to you that many others there may have already solved the problem? I am referring to swinging groups. Such groups are great fun, and cheap or free (I shall abstain from making anti-Scot jibes). The snag is that it - by definition - usually involves group activities. For me, that is an attraction ... but I seem to be the exception in this forum. And not only in that respect ... as I am sure Ness will rush to tell you.

Good to see you're still with us Moravian. If you've been absent for more than a couple of weeks I do begin to worry and wonder. I'm sure all advice is welcome, but the lad is new to all this apparently and will be nowhere near ready for your levels of ultimate gangbang perversions. How many have you attended now, well over 40? And you're still at least partly capable, at 85? I've said already that you are a living marvel.

Worrying about escort scammers is one thing, but at the opposite end of the scale are those escorts who still permit you to engage with them, the Florence Nightingales of the industry, as kindly and compassionate as anyone alive. How must it be for them to face a scrawny bag of bones in his 80s with a skull and two or three teeth on top of a body, if it could be called that, would turn stomachs in a mortuary, never mind a knocking shop. But still they take you on board. I hope the new lad gets lucky and first off meets one of those type of kind ladies. However it's good to see you are still alive and active. The newbie has a long and colourful way to go before he reaches your levels of gangbang depravity, not to mention your penchant for ladyboys under tables.

If I really fitted your colourful descriptions, Ness, do you think that I would dare go to orgies? I think that I have mentioned in the past that I come from a very slow-aging family: my son, at 52, still often gets asked for ID in Tesco and my father, then 92, was once asked whether he was looking forward to retirement. I am still stuck on 40 events, partly because they have become too woke and partly because I am busy trying to start a new business. Perhaps I should try that FKK place, although it does not sound sufficiently 'interactive' for me. There used to be a place near Zuerich (and near a former residence) where one could screw at the bar (and I am teetotal). I shall have to challenge you, some day, to a game at strip-poker-online.com and then you can revise your description (if I let you win). Merry Hibernal Solstice (I am also an atheist)..

You never cease to amaze me Moravian. You complained recently that you were out of gangbang action because you fell out of a tree. You shouldn't have been climbing a fucking tree at 85, or driving a car to gangbangs (you also complained recently about the cost of petrol to get to them), and now entirely undaunted you are looking to start a new business. FFS will you ever recline and wait calmly for death in your rocking chair?

I do much admire your pluck and determination of course, but it can't go on. It's only a thin covering of skin that's holding you together. In the festive spirit I wish you a very Merry Christmas also. And be sure and make the most of it, because it's very likely to be your last.

How typical is it to have a shower when arriving at the meeting place? I'll be showering before l leave on the day either way.
But I've heard that it's expected by some if not all the ladies. Or have I heard wrong?
Re: Complete newbie. How to avoid scammers
December 27, 2023 09:40
A good proportion of the ladies like you to shower on arrival, even if i have showered before leaving they like it.

The higher turn over ones might not insist on a shower, getting dressed watching a "lady" wipe her pussy with a wet one before the knickers went back on for the next client doesn't add to the ambience.

OK that's fine. Does the shower time come out of the time we pay for, or is that only after?

Depends on how much of a clock watcher they are. One of my very first punts was booked an hour, but was there an hour and 20 mins! She gets a lot of repeat business from me. Always go for the shower, even if you have had one at home, as the WG will feel a lot comfortable with the punt

But as a first timer, read the AW reviews but take note on the reviewers; do they have much feedback themselves ? Are all the reviews submitted over a small time frame ? Also google the WG username as she may show up in reviews on Punting message boards.

Hi Scottish Mike ,
Be careful as I booked a girl on AW yesterday and paid for a hours booking and admittedly was running 15 mins late due to being given a postcode on the way to begin with as I had a 30 mile journey to get to her location and then on arrival at the first postcode was then given a secondary postcode and then had to confirm the address when I was at the street. Which cost me 15 minutes punting time. I was then asked to take a shower. No issues with that. So had the shower was shown up to the room had sex and was given a massage with oil and asked if I wanted another shower and as I came out found my clothes awaiting me outside the door. I was annoyed as I still had 15 mins to go and could have managed another pop which I had already paid for. I was tempted to a complain about it but as she is a beautiful looking girl my heart overruled my head and I went on my way feeling cheated.
