Biggest Red Flag

[George1990]

I’m sure most will say deposits is #1. I’m going to say filtered photos. That’s a hard pass for me. Asking for deposits doesn’t always mean they’re fake. Filtered photos on the other hand. 100% miss every time. And I’m not talking about professional studio photos. They tend to be fairly solid given the expense.

When they have multiple names I am out!

Multiple names usually means they are trying to reinvent themselves. Filters you just ask for a selfie or 2.

I got with both. But everytime I have given a deposit I have got scammed
And if I think the pics have been messed with I ask for a selfie.
Any provider now will to give u and fully clothed selfie. Is a hard pass because u know they are hiding something

So many red flags...

....dude in the pictures
.....pictures that don't look like the same provider
....most of the listings that push content first
...illegal items in the pics....

I agree with George - deposit not always a red flag but filtered pics are.

I would only do a deposit with a well known and well reviewed provider though.

Most of them it is a hard hell no.

Seconding heavily filtered (and especially AI-enhanced) pictures. In my experience with a couple girls who have used them on Seeking, even if they were legitimately really hot in person, they just had an awful vibe to be around and often were unusually clingy. Not sure if it's an insecurity thing, an inflated view of themselves thing, or something else

Deposit for me because every time I gave a deposit even for a girl that was reviewed, I’ve been scammed

STG shows what cities the ad is posted in. If it’s many cities far apart, I know it’s not legit, unless the body of the ad refers to a tour. Also, I pass when the location is something vague, instead of at least a city. “Down town” or “near you” is a red flag.

[George1990]

I’ve learned that on Tryst, when multiple cities are listed, more often than not, the provider is advertising in those other cities for the same dates as well. Clearly a scam.

Multiple names for travelers is frequent to conceal their patterns of travel, been told this a couple of times

[Tomb8871]

Why would they want to conceal their pattérn of travel?

[Streambed]

Stalkers, ICE …. Use your imagination

Other thing that always concerns me is when they are offering party favors.

Any provider off of STG to me personally is a red flag…
