The big scam agency thread

[mature helen]

Scam, never pay up front to join an agency.

Yes, I've merged it in here - I think this lot have been mentioned before .

LW, 'social' escorting is a myth. If you're not prepared to be sexual with men for money (and this doesn't necessarily mean actual shagging - plenty of people don't) then 'escorting' is not for you.

I've said it before, but this is another reason that of all the stupid euphemisms we hear daily I think 'escort' is the stupidest .

Hi there been contacted by blue chip entertaining and really worried as to if it is legit please can anyone help thank you .

I've moved this to here - basically, any 'agency' asking for money upfront before you have cash in your hand from a client is a scam, no matter what excuses they give for asking for it.

I'd really appreciate it if someone could pm me some agencies/parlours in London. I've seen so many ads on Cl, Backpage etc. but I don't want to go down that route and end up in a bad situation. I am new to escorting (a few months) and have seen a few clients independently, but at this point I'd really prefer not to do it alone. I understand that an agency takes 30/40% for something I could do myself, I just need the consistency right now. I also prefer for someone else to deal with my bookings for me.

And read the main site www.saafe.info

Any other questions come back and ask.

Never pay an agency - they should be working for you. As LOTN says read all the site, not just the forum. Try and go indie, even if you can only do out-calls initially, or book hotel rooms for in-calls.

Don't give anyone money up front for anything, an agency is a pimp operating through legal loopholes and you are giving them a cut of your takings for getting you bookings and in some cases transporting you. You don't work for them or owe them anything.

HI everyone!

i have been reading quite a bit online about people saying non sexual escorts just isnt real and its a scam, but i have seen many other articles saying it isnt a scam, the problem is i havent seen anywhere reviews or credit backing these companies up that i have found
i was wondering if anyone knew about these particular agencies and if they really practice what they advertise

house of ladies (no fees at all, sign up, and have a skype or msn interview)
occasions (?20 background check fee and website fee, allow 7 days for processing)
companion directory (have not seen any fees listed for joining)

Thanks !

Cant help you as we are all prostitutes here. I cant believe in this day and age non sexual escorting along with straight male escort companies are still able to get people to part with their money.
Give them ?20 and see how much work you get...

Any 'agency' wanting any money from you before you have cash in your hand from a client is a scam, no matter what the excuse for it is.

Companion has been mentioned here before, possibly even in this thread. I can't remember where their 'please send the money' comes, but see paragraph one.
