(Outcalls) Safety Advice and Tips
« on: 24 September 2014, 04:56:23 pm »
Hi, I work as an 'Outcall only' escort, and just wanted to share a few tips with other working ladies.

- Be wary of accepting drinks you haven't seen opened / poured in front of you, including water
- Be careful with other people that may be in the property (if, for example, you're going to visit a client who lives in a shared house and has flatmates in other rooms). 
- Take your handbag with you everywhere.  If you go to the toilet, your handbag goes too.  You can use the excuse that you're touching up your lipstick.  Keep in mind that the money will be in there, and also your mobile phone (never be without a mobile phone during bookings).  On the subject of handbags, don't carry any identification on you (not even a store card with your name printed on it).  When I was new to escorting, I didn't take my handbag to the bathroom with me, and exited the bathroom once to find a (very nice and regular) client with his hands in my bag.
- Take a look around the room for hidden cameras.  This includes laptops, mobile phones, tablets, and possibly smart TVs.  Secretly filming bookings is rare but has happened to escorts in the past.  Needless to say, this footage can be used for many malicious purposes, including blackmail.  Be careful if a client is overly fussy about having you in a certain position, this has happened to me once before during doggy-style, and it wasn't until after the booking that I realised the angle he was coaxing me into was directly opposite the computer on his desk.
- Look for any signs of drugs and/or weapons and if you feel in danger, make an excuse and leave.  If necessary, forget the money; your safety comes first.
- For hotel bookings, sometimes it's best to meet the client outside and walk in together holding hands.  I have been kicked out by hotel staff on several occasions (but mainly on later outcalls) because I was not able to show them the room key or prove that I was staying there, and they wouldn't let me 'visit my boyfriend quickly'.  I was dressed conservatively and don't think they knew I was an escort.
- If you are driving yourself, don't ever tell the client this.  If the client does find out that you are driving yourself, make sure you make a brief phone call to your security buddy/agency in front of the client as soon as you arrive.  Also, it's best to park slightly away from the house (perhaps even in the next road), so the client can't catch your numberplate. 
-Be aware of where the exits are at all times
-Finally, another small tip, I have been to several bookings where the music has been so loud that I could barely have an audible conversation with the client, let alone hear my phone.  It's important that you have your phone in your handbag at all times and that you can hear it, so if the music is very loud turn it down, in case your security/agency/driver needs to contact you during the booking.  In my four years of working, this has only happened a handful of times, once was when my driver texted me to let me know a woman had just parked and was walking into the house (luckily the client assured me that it was just the cleaner, and not his partner).
Keep safe and have fun  8)

Perhaps other people can think of more advice?  When ladies stick together, clients treat us with more respect.  :)

For incalls, I have various everyday items scattered around to use just in case I need to defend myself.  A can of Deep Heat spray with a plaster underneath the direction of spray (so i dont spray myself accidentally in a moment of panic) next to the bed and one behind the pillows on bed.  High heels outside bedroom door, they make very dangerous weapons.  Rape alarms on the front door handle and bedroom door handle. 

I not done an outcall in years, but if I did the Deep heat spray would be in my bag.

I'll again just point everybody (newbies especially) to the main SAAFE site including the article on outcalls; whilst individual views are useful, the forum isn't a substitute for thoroughly reading this.

If you used it on somebody, you'd likely be in considerable trouble unless you could explain why you had a can of Deep Heat in your work bag. Maybe if it was a holdall that also had some gym stuff in it?  :)

Hi samanthaangel,

That's a good idea about the deep heat spray.  I carry contact lens disinfectant solution, apparently this has a similar effect if needed in an incident.
I have never done incalls, as in my experience, clients can be indiscreet and neighbours can be nosy.  I also worry that if I did incalls, I would receive unexpected visits from clients outside of my working hours.
However, I think if I started to offer incalls, I would try to stay as safe as possible by keeping a long jacket next to the main front door and a spare key and a mobile phone hidden inside the pocket.  This way, if a nasty client turned up I could run out of the place with the jacket on!
I would also put the money in another room, without the client watching where I put it, in addition to hiding any valuables (Apple iPads, expensive jewellery, etc.).

No, it really isn't. At least the contact lens stuff could feasibly be explained as a handbag item if there were also contacts in with it - a doctored DH spray can might as well be a Stanley knife (or from a legal POV, a gun).

Not sure if this makes me sound a bit OTT as I'm not overly paranoid but I never were chains or anything around my neck as I feel this could easily be used to choke me  ::)

Interesting as I incidentally avoid earrings too as it hurts badly if pulled.  But if I have mentioned regarding the chain thing and other ladies seemed to look at me like I was being hysterical.  I've not noticed anything about this being mentioned before, maybe I missed it on here.

Alternatively a can of the 'Impulse' or similar body spray/aerosol deodorant may be as effective?

 From tbe main site, out call advice. Although new to escorting is it really reasonable to start asking for clients land line numbers and real names any more so for them to ask your real name  and numbers  - although I do use my real first name?

As for not wearing chains and leaving heels outside the door I figure if a clients wants to harm me there are loads of ways he can do this and leaving heels outside the door won't really change anything.

Err yes it isn't just reasonable but pretty vital.  You are going into an unknown space, at best saving yourself a lot of timewasting being sent on a wild goose chase to wrong addresses and at worst with no one knowing who you are with and where exactly to get help etc. 

As for not wearing a chain around your neck etc, it's up to you what safety measures you take but why ignore good advice that at least gives you a fighting chance of avoiding serious harm?!?  It seems to me you are willing for something to happen to you with such a fatalistic attitude.  Yes there are loads of ways how clients could harm me or mess me around.  But guess what so far I have never had to post a warning and avoided going anywhere for a wasted trip.  If you don't care for your safety I won't and prefer to instead offer my advice to those that might find it useful.  :FF

Hi,
It's also a good idea to memorise the number of your agency / security friend in case something happens to your mobile and you need to use a payphone / someone else's phone!

I think its good idea not to wear any kind of shoes with straps or anything around ankle. Just plain simple heels which you can slip off and run if you need.

I don't have a fatalistic attitude but a realistic one.

I know I have not been doing this long, but I have yet to get a real landline number. I guess 75% are mobile numbers, the rest are with held. On the withheld ones when I ask for a number I either get given a wrong number or another mobile.
