ukescorts.directory scam site?
« on: 16 April 2016, 12:01:20 pm »
Hi, does anyone know if this site is a scam or a genuine directory affiliated with adultwork? It has thumbnails straight from escort's adultwork profiles, showing the main profile picture and mine is on there. They have an adultwork banner at the bottom so I thought they might be affiliated with adultwork. Any replies would be welcome as if they are not part of adultwork then I'll ask them to remove the link to my profile.

It looks like a site just using the AW referral scheme which gives them a few pence for any sign up as a result of clicking one of the links. They have no control over who's small images appear.
I believe when you join A W one of their terms is you agreeing to appear in such promotional tools.

Yeah, it's a referral site, in order to not appear on sites like that you have to tick the box on the Edit Profile page that says "Only show on AdultWork.com" - if you float over the word "help" next to that line it explains all about the affiliate program.
