The big scam agency thread

[Ngirozi]

Hi beautiful people. There are agencies operating under the following names "elegantescorts.net" or elegant companions. They do not exist. Offering "non sexual escort service vacancies,they will encourage you upon your application to join immediately. Days later they will tell you several interests are after you and that you are going to make a lot of money. This is when they will request you pay advertising and mediation fees of up to ?350, which a witch operating under various names will assure you is NOTHING compared to how much you will make the following week after you have just TWO dates which she " has lined up". After paynent they send you a bogus contract. Once it clears,she will disappear. And a male companion of hers will call to say "date cancelled" and that's where that story ends. Now many may roll eyes and think "who'd be stupid enough to pay". A great many desperate women whose circumstances are such that risk taking overules logic. Putting it out here so that no sweethearts are conned by these sons of b******. I was naive to the utmost highest degree and paid a hefty price.

I'm surprised too....I'm really hoping they're just being slow but do delete it at some point... I'm so paranoid now as there is no membership, it's completely public.

The agency was dukesofdaisy.com & the second was elegant-escorts.com

The first is moderately up front about the fact that it's really an ad site. As there's minimal demand for non-sexual escorting, the ad fees are going to be virtually all of their income.

The second is in Spanish because it's Mexican.. If it was -companions, they look a lot scammier.

On the plus side, they should take your details down after three months. If you tell them you intend to break their T&C, they may do it earlier.

I think it it most likely a scam.

Any agency in any industry that asks you to pay money upfront is a scam.

If they are really an agency they will find you work and make their profit that way - there is no need for them to ask for an upfront payment for anything unless they are scamming you.

So glad I looked on here. Spoke to a woman today called Emily from elegantescorts.net.  She told me she had 3 interested clients and one wanted to meet me Saturday however she would need a ?340 advertising fee to get me signed up before I could go ahead. Something about this rang alarm bells in my head. I was told that they were a members club for millionaires which didn't seem to fit with their website. She didn't sound very professional and so I thought I'd do some digging. I found the identical site for Elegant companions and then googling more I found this thread.   Does anyone know of any reputable agencies?   I'd  be really grateful for some advice being new to this.

Most of us would say avoid agencies and go indy.

Non-scam agencies exist, but they all involve being sexual with men. As their income comes from this, agencies are usually less than fussy about who they will send your way.

So..

If you thought there's any market for non-sexual escorting, forget it. Anyone saying otherwise is just after your money.

If you are willing to do sex for cash, have a read of the main SAAFE.info site and let us know if you have any questions after that.

A caller this morning claiming to be from discreetescorts agency told me there was a female client wanting a 2 hour outcall tonight but I had to pay ?109.50 up front. I said I wouldn't be paying them anything until after the booking (as per the normal procedure for all legit agencies) and they said they'd give the booking to someone else (aka keep looking for an escort gullible enough to transfer ?100 plus to their fake ass agency for their make-believe booking scam). Another male escort had the same call and also realised it was a scam and called the number on the dicreetescorts website and was told it wasn't them making the calls. The number they called from was 0778890****

Hello
Would like to know your opinion on this: escort agency director wants to "try me out" for a fee (a booking) before he can reccomend me to client.. Is that normal?

This might be something some agencies do but you don't have to do it.

I wouldn't. That's completely unprofessional on his behalf unless he's going to pay you full price for your services. Otherwise it's just a sad, old man trying to not only make money off girls but also trying to get a free/discounted f***. Men like this make me mad. I've known people who have joined an agency and been told at the last second that they have to do this, and it always ends up the same way if they go ahead. It ends up being a Micky mouse run agency by a pervert trying to also get his end away.

In the long run it's up to you, but I personally wouldn't.

I wouldn't because it sets a precedent for your relationship with him and he might start expecting freebies. It's no wonder agencies are illegal, they're all so scummy. Everybody should go indie.

Hi All,

very new to this so apologies if this is a silly question.

I registered to be a non sexual escort and the agency is being a little vague. They've said after they took all my details and told me i had a booking that i needed to pay an advertising cost for a 12 month contract. When you sign up with an agency how do you know if once you've paid they wont run off with my money? Also is there a place online i can read reviews on agencies?

Thanks your advice would be so much appreciated.

[xw5]

They will run off with your money! It's a scam because there's almost no market for non-sexual escorting.

I'll merge this with the bigger thread on this in a minute, but congratulations on not paying them. Which bunch was it?

Hey, I have recently been scammed by premier escort! Do not go near it! I'm so annoyed at myself for being so trusting and stupid! After ha if read all the advice on here I know 100% that I've been scammed. I stupidly paid the "agency" ?280 of my own money for an "advertising fee" and that was meant to be their lower cost!! She told me I would earn this back in a couple hours! I'm so annoyed I fell for this, the woman on the phone sounded nice and told me that I had 3 men lined up for dates and even gave me their names, ages and the name of a nice restrarunt near me that they would meet me at. Her number was blocked which is a tell tale sign but I was so caught up in wanting this tale to be real that I fell for it! Does anyone know if there's a way I could get my ?280 back?! I'm a student and really needed the money and told her this, how heartless can people be?! I had really got my hopes up that this would be a way I could make some money, does anyone know of any non sexual escorting agencies that aren't scams?! Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
