A while ago i also got called by a so called captain with the same story. I blocked the number and reported to site admin which working girl i visited in the North of Pretoria. She is still advertising on this site under two names and profiles as well as on another site. I was told i may not mention the working girls name. I havent punted since this happened as the trust is gone. I even reported the number to the police but they do nothing. There are so many lovely ladies out there that i want to visit so i will stick to areas and places i have visited before like Anita's and of course wg's that i have visited before all this crap happened.
Why can't you mention her name. If you make a factual comment, there is motion wrong with that, not on her profile or on the forum. Not telling is is allowing us to see the same fate.
How many people just see pics and call from their normal phones? Then get called and scammed without knowing there's any recourse

When they call you, just keep em talking so that you can make money for your next punt off them
This premium rated number advice is top notch. Need to look into how to do this.
It's well worth it, You can use it to generate easy punting cash for yourself. Just dont abuse it by calling the advertisers and making them talk for long hours, after all they are doing this to earn a living

A regular of mine also got a call from these scammers. I warned him a while ago about this going on yet he was still rather worried. What worries me,on the day the scammers mentioned he called /went to a girl, he did phone me early that morning but I was sleeping and didn't pick up. How is that possible? I most CERTAINLY did not sell my numbers and would NEVER EVER DO IT.
He called someone else after since you were sleeping. One of them passed the number.
He's not your only regular and you're not the only wg he calls either.

Thanks for clearing that. That's so true. And obviously the blame goes to the lady last visited. Fcking sad.

I am so tired of hearing about these scammers, and how many ladies and men are falling for this bullshit! Seriously! We all know about it. It's affecting our business in such a negative way, yet the topic and information is being discussed on the forum all the time! Search the forum! It's been brought up time after time on this forum alone. I don't mean to sound like I have a lack of empathy or compassion, but let's be realistic.
It's not ESA's responsibility to manage your extra mural activities. They provide a marketing platform. They are not your babysitters or your parents to tell you how to punt responsibly. We are all grown ass adults on an adult platform. If you want to play in the Purple World the onus is on you to protect yourself the same why you protect your bank account details!
It would however be a plus if ESA had a "Warning" and "Advice on Protection of Personal Info" when signing up, informing clients of this situation. And maybe also add a disclosure form for their advertiser's to sign that the photographer's can take with on photoshoot's to inform the ladies on how to handle these absurd requests and what their rights are to protect themselves. Once a lady has signed this and accepted the responsibility of protecting her clients and is approached and then chooses to work with these con artists, then they understand and accept that they will be automatically banned and named and shamed!
We need to inform the new ladies and punter's and those that don't know about the forum. I have had clients calling me about these incidents that have been forum members for 10 years+ and still don't know we have a forum?
Use a punter phone!

Excellent post with good suggestions. I've also reached fatigue with the topic. Unfortunately we'll keep seeing more of these posts because most of us begin to recognise the importance of abiding to punting rules - like using a punting phone - only AFTER we've been burnt. It sucks to say, but sometimes school-fees are a necessary evil.
On a slightly tangential note, I will say that searching the forum has given me some valuable insight, especially considering that I went into this lone-wolf. The forum was a lot more raw in the past and some interesting things pop up when you search for certain topics.
I took it a step further and went to crime stop with them. They are everywhere like roaches.
Best advice get a punting phone and never give the girls your real names.
Stay safe
