Backpage has truckloads of spammers posting 24/7 so
presumably they have the know-how with bitcoins.
I'm not going to bother,

I can't say I miss Backpage that much though.
The spamfest has lowered the standard of clients Backpage attracts.
Too bad they can't be arssed to police their site better...clients look elsewhere.

I was having trouble with using pay Safe several times until it accepted. Then noticed at the bottom to only use bit coins. All the hassle with bitcoins. It put me right off, its like climbing a mountain just to pay.

After browsing here should have blown alot on backpage that will be my next attempt.

All of a sudden the paysafe option has been "restored", but since yesterday (and for 24hrs) it was not working. I had already registered with Paxul, talked with a few bitcoin sellers and was about to take the plunge. problem is that non of the bitcoin sellers will give you their real identity -but will ask you to e-mail them a government ID scan-. Then there's the guy who wants you to pay through western union, another one through paypal e-gifts and another who wants to meet you in person and have you handle him the money. it's all like very "secretive" and none of them want to give you too many details. I feel like I'm buying drugs or something.


 Dunno, but the whole thing feels... dodgy. >:(

Somebody is clearly putting a lot of pressure on Backpage at the moment, just as they did with Craigslist. Both have significant non-sex work sections, or they would doubtless be going the way of RentBoy.

Still, if they want proof of ID before accepting escort ads, I would want anything they had on me deleting sooner rather than later.
'The Ian formerly known as SW5'. What they said: "Indispensable", "You are our best resource", and (hours later!) "I'm afraid that you're being made redundant..."

Just saw this concerning if you feel iffy about giving ID...

'If you pay attention to their terms and only use sellers with 100+ positive feedback you should be fine.'
Feedback can't be faked can it...innocent face?
Phahh humbug!

Exactly.

I was talking with this guy who didn't want to give me his location or any details and he had a picture of some rapper in his profile. He wanted me to send him a scan of my passport and meet him in East London.

Like...Are you fu#$%^g kiddin??

Then there's this other dude in Ireland who only accepts US dollars and you have to buy him bitcoin through paypal e-gifts.

 wtf ???

And all these dodgy dudes are in the paxful website reccomended by backpage!

I mean.. if all these sellers are doing something legal/legit why their fierce need to secrecy and hiding their location/ identities???  When you go into Amazon or ebay to buy stuff usually sellers have their websites posted on their profile, most of the time with a physicall address and a real phone number.

Why is the bitcoin market not operating the same way?

Conclusion:

So visa and mastercard pulled out from Backpage because they wanted to help "making the world a safer place for us women". And now Backpage is reccomending us (the women) to meet  online strangers  in some street corner while carrying lots of cash and a copy of our passport?

WTF??

Hi

I got bitcoin without giving any id. I paid for it in cash and using my escort email. No ID required.


There are machines in London and big cities that you put cash into. The machine I used was the size of electric kettle.
You open up a wallet(BlockchainDOTcom).All you need is a email address for this. No ID required.

Find a place in your city that has bitcoin machines. There should be a lot in London.

You hold you blockchainDOTcom (wallet) up to the machine and it automatically brings up your details.
Put in money to machine and it tops up. The money appears straight away on your account.

When you go to pay money with backpage hit launch wallet. It will give you a long code.
This code you will send the money from your wallet.

Find the bitcoin machine in your city.

Hope this helps.

Moderator I want to help girls. Hopefully what I have written is ok.

Hi Elaine, and thanks.

I've tried a hundred times the "launch your wallet" button on backpage, but comes as an unrecognized address. I've tried it with different browsers in my laptop, and an updated safari version on my iphone. Nope. It always comes as "this address is not recognized". hence the reason I tried the other bitcoin buying option.

Anyone else here has had problems with the Backpage "launch your wallet" option? is it only me?  :-X

Launch wallet

Firstly, you must be logged into your wallet (blockchain)
When you launch wallet a code appears where normally the URL address is.
copy this code.

Back to wallet.

Paste this code into the sender's address.

You will hear a funny beep as the transaction is made. Payment made straight away.

Hope this helps.
