No, it is not right - I have no idea what this site is or where they've got their information from (I suspect it's the US) but talking about selling, offering to sell or selling sex in the UK is perfectly legal and always has been. As is buying it.

The only offence even vaguely relating to this is soliciting, which only concerns public places and is a public order offence along with others which cause a public nuisance. Even then the exchange of money for sex is not illegal, it's loitering or approaching somebody with the intention of doing so that is.

There is no such thing as the UK National Escort Association in any credible, official sense and this reeks of a new tack by the scammers, to me at least. I wonder at what point they'll start asking people for money for something?


EDIT: Having just skimmed the content of this site, I can categorically say that it is possibly the biggest pile of steaming horseshit I have encountered in an extremely long time. It is clearly cut and pasted from something Stateside (much of the spelling is American) and the 'advice' is so bad it's almost funny if there wasn't a slim chance that somebody might believe it. They're actually recommending people use Paypal, ffs .

Having checked the domain reg (and upon looking, the websites are virtually identical) it's an offshoot of EscortFX, who are bloody website designers of all things, not sex workers (not that folk can't be both, but in this case it's pretty clear they're not).

Perhaps they ought to stick to what they know, and leave prostitutes to do likewise.

Yeah, I think they're really after selling expensive agency websites and the text is there to get search engine hits.

From their 'terms and conditions'

The website administrator does not make any warranty or representation that information on the website is appropriate for use in any jurisdiction (other than great britain (sic)).

If they don't know that the legal system in Scotland is different from that in England and Wales, how much reliance can you put on their views?

Like Amy said, complete crap.

Thanks girls I've read pretty much all the articles on here and looked at SW5 so I know what's what now

I just looked at this website.......jeez what a pile of crap.

The scarey thing is someone thinking of escorting might stumble accross it and take it as gospel.
