Very well said
It is with great sadness that I make this post but at this point I feel that it is necessary to warn the community about a popular provider that took advantage of a client.
In late January I lost my mother and in her honor and for my birthday so I began planning a trip to her favorite vacation spot of Hawaii. I decided that I would invite one of the ladies from this site to go with me. At his point I had not decided between which lady I would take but I had asked several that I knew and enjoyed spending time with. TashaVegas and I have known each other for several years and we had a friendship above and beyond our relationship on this site and she is the one I ultimately decided to take with me.
Tasha and I quickly came to an agreement to compensation for her travel and in late March/Early April she requested a deposit which I happily provided as she requested. Over the next month I continued to make payments as she requested to assist her with personal issues. I booked hotel and flight accommodations for the trip based on our agreement. I also do have documentation of all of the text messages and payment that I provided her. The day we were scheduled to leave I completed my end of the agreement. An hour before I was scheduled to pick her up to go to the airport everything went bad. Tasha sent me a message that she was had emergency and was going to Quick Care but that she would meet me at the airport. I went to the airport and checked in and waited for her to arrive but Tasha did not make the flight and did not communicate with me after that time. I made my way to Hawaii where upon my landing I received a email from Tasha explaining why she was unable to make the flight. I advised her that we would be able to rebook the flight but she stopped all communication with me at that point and I spent the entire week in Hawaii alone. I don't believe Tasha's story because there are pictures of her shopping in LA when she was suppose to be in Hawaii.
There are a lot more personal details here that I will not share in this public forum but there are several other highly respected members of the community that know the specifics. I simply want to warn the community that Tasha and her great reputation for being a reliable provider isn't actually the person she is made out to be. My situation is very similar to an incident that happened with another gentleman about 2 years ago and is very well documented.
Since my return Tasha has promised to make payments until the debt is paid in full and apologized for the situation. Again I don't believe her story. I never thought I would be in a position where I would need to post this about someone that I liked and trusted like I did Tasha. I know I made a mistake prepaying but I believed I was dealing with someone I considered a friend so to have her lie to me and not live up to her end of the agreement has destroyed our hobby relationship and our friendship as well.
now my meet n greet RSVP issues make sense now. guess it wasn't just me.
Nice way to make it about you though
I am sorry this happened to you. I will nit even consider her on my trips to vegas. I have prepaid similar to your story. It is scary and a lesion I need to learn. please keep board updated if she does make restitution...
Damn, anyone who researches this girl would know you should never pay in advance.
But Tasha is particularly aggressive in making demands and not keeping her end of the bargain.
Tsk, tsk.
Doesn't matter who it is NO money in advance IMO, looking at your reviews when did you see her or any other lady in Vegas to know how aggressive she is? just wondering!
she has done this exact same kind of thing previously. Hopefully the word gets out enough this time to prevent it from happening again.
you have never posted before and today you post this....there is always two sides in every story..we should not jump to conclusion unless we know her side too.
Knowing Tasha like I know her, you motherfuckers can talk shit all fucking day and night and you won't sway my way of thinking.
That lady has been nothing but good to me and treated me like a king from the first time I met her till now.
Not a one of you can change my fucking mind!
The only one would be her and her alone...!
"known each other for several years and we had a friendship above and beyond our relationship on this site"
I guess that goes to show you that any show of "friendship" over and above
Is really just an scheme and a illusion/mirage - hopefully not every seasoned provider is like that
It's always about the money and only the money. Too bad that dishonesty is rampant in the hobby but this is not a surprise since the entire experience is based on lies. Once you understand and accept this fact you won't be disappointed.

I would second that, and on top of it she is a real nice lady!
Huh?
never prepaid and if the deposit is needed should only be a small amount like $300-500
I've been harmed by her before. It disgusts me to even think about it.
Just remember, when Tasha Vegas shows her true face, you can't believe how ugly it is.
I don't know what gets into certain ppl's mind to do certain things that harm others but actually in a long run harm themselves.
simply GOOGLE this phrase below
Which brings up others "alleged" past interactions
Tasha in Vegas owes me
You maybe should have just considered hooking up with some local talent in Hawaii. But maybe you got money to burn for such deals...
Hell, as a local here in LV I hardly even hobby with these Vegas girls anymore. I've taken to doing it on vacations because in the past couple years the back biting, price ramps, etc with these girls has gotten too much. Must be a sign of the economy maybe...
Met her a couple years ago on this very site. She was recommended to me by a mutual friend. Didn't actually see her till late November, early December of 09. Or was it 08? Anyway, she, I and another lady cohosted a dinner and party together. I didn't know WTF to do, and Tasha stepped up to the plate. She orchestrates many parties in LV and never heard a bad thing yet about any of them.
So, we made a date for the afternoon of the party. Wait. Let me backtrack. When another gent and I flew in, guess who picked us up at the airport and took us to our hotel? Had lunch with us, the other lady, and another she picked up at the airport?
So we had our date. I was smitten. Actually before that but I digress. The next day the other lady and I had Tasha join us on our date.
Get where this is going?
The next time I went to Vegas I saw 3 ladies. One of them was Tasha. She came to my hotel, and when I went down to meet her we went and had lunch with a hobby buddy of mine and his civvie GF who had no idea how we all know each other. The ladies became fast friends and I just sat there and watched. We ate and drank and after Tasha and I went upstairs for our date.
Now, Tasha and I became friends. We'd call each other on occasion. I remember calling her and she was in a bit of a jam. I asked what was wrong and she told me. I felt bad for her and asked her if she needed anything. She said she could use some funds for her babies. I asked how much, she told me, I asked for her greendot card number and she said she would take it off our next date. I said no. I told her she was my friend and if I could do anything to help her I will, NSA.
Last September she was going on a tour and coming thru here. She called and told me and I jumped on it. She's an ATF as far as providers go, and a damn good friend. The lady she was supposed to tour with cancelled out on her, but Tasha couldn't pass it up because she had more lucrative engagements than mine further down the road. But she needed money. I forwarded her half of what I was going to give her anyway and she came.
Well, she came. But she didn't see me. Shit happened, which I'm sure is the case with the whiner OP, and she knew I was going to Vegas in November and said she would do this for this to make it up to me.
Not ONLY did she make it up to me, she went WAY above and beyond what was expected of her. Almost felt ashamed because maybe I took advantage of her good nature and her willingness to make a bad thing right.
Oh. And guess who took me to the airport when I left the next day?
That's right. Tasha-fucking-Vegas.
So sorry if I don't share the same sentiments as the OP. As far as I'm concerned Tasha's shit don't stink and I'll see her forever as long as she lets me.

Glad to see she has at least one white knight. Up until last week I would have agreed with you but I have now see the other side of her. Hopefully you heed my story and don't fall for her game.

Better yet, I'll PM you my number and you can try to convince me otherwise.
I got all weekend. There's not a goddam thing you can tell me about Tasha that will sway me from the way I feel about her.
I'm PMing you right now with my number. Use it.
(Your posts are all over this thread. I'll just post under this one.)
When I read your posts in the last year, I thought it might be a happy-go-lucky persona that you wanted to convey, but as I can see in this thread, it has not been an act.
When I started this hobby almost 6 years ago, I wouldn't classify myself as a White Knight, but I tended to be on the provider's side. . . the benefit of a doubt thing, you know.
Then I got very involved in the hobby, especially with the second provider whom I saw. For the next two years I paid for her service on the average of once a week. I don't just hang out occasionally with her, I got involved in many aspects of her life. It turned out she had a boyfriend and at the same time was married, twice in that period of them. She didn't have to lie to me, I wasn't going to be her boyfriend. but see did. However. she dealt drugs which I didn't know. Her husband didn't even know she ran a brothel until the cops looked him up. (By the way, he's a physician.) He divorced her and she married her boyfriend. What I am trying to say it that deception is the nature of this business.
I was active with my circle of friends in this hobby; some of them are screeners and schedulers. I, and they as well, learned the other side of many providers. Many providers tell you how great you are and talk shit behind you. It is not that all providers are deceptive, I know decent ones; but for those who deceive, when they do, they are very good at it. That's what they provide -- fantasy.
substantially all the posts in this thread (putting aside the original post) are either from alias or dudes with no reviews. Just sayin....
The only providers who will chime in with their "real" IDs are the ones who are dumb enough to think that by trashing Tasha they will win some brownie points and get more clients.
not talking about providers dude. I'm talking about guys like you. Really??
Why would one even consider what you had to say if coming from an unknown source and without the capacity to check reviews etc. Any comment you have is by definition without merit. Again, really??? If you can't post under your handle then don't post at all because your comments are meaningless.
I don't like aliases but judge them by the merit of what they have to say. You play in San Diego, I'm guessing these other peeps play in Las Vegas and might not want to have their playtime cutoff from a negative post in the RO board.
As to why a provider would post with an alias. Perhaps she knows this person either personally or professionally and doesn't want to have either relationship effected by what they post.
the alias thing is just bullshit. If one has something to say on this site with their handle (whether it be a provider that we can check reviews and pm folks that have seen them or it be a hobbyist that has reviews and whitelist okays etc. that one can verify) then use your handle so one can get some comfort with respect to credibility. Otherwise, hold your key strokes and bit your tongue and don't post under an alias. And, while I have some reviews in SD I do play all over including Vegas, the CV and San Fran mostly which you would find if you go thru all my reviews. Point being, at least in my opinion, if one is going to post something don't hide behind an alias because, at least to my thinking, I might read the post but discount it entirely for being masked by someone hiding but still wanting to have folks hear their bark. I don't hear your bark because its from some unknown entity that has no meaning to me.
I have my reasons and I will continue to post under an alias. You don't have to read or respond to any post contributed by an alias.
I forgot that as a provider I have no right to express my personal opinion and not have it impact my professional image.
After all, its not like I pay for my VIP here, right?
You asked WHY most replies are posted by non reviewers or aliases. I answered from POV of provider.
MY reviews have absolutely zero relevance to subject at hand.
thanks for calling me sir but don't think I really deserve that and don't want to fight. It's just that you say ( I think at least ) that you have inferred ( which I did in no way imply but I can't help what you might infer) that you have no right to express an opinion? I just would like to know who the opinion is coming from. Is that too much to ask? In the end how is one to make a judgment about credibility? Not sure how a comment might impact a professional image but I guess I would say why make a comment in the first place if you can't do it under your provider handle? My point is simply if it's under an alias than why even consider it because if it really meant something one would not post it under an alias. And in the end I would most welcome to know who you really are so Pm me if it suits your fancy.
Newton my posts are not under any alias. I don't blame people for not wanting to get involved. I didn;t want to post this here but the girl repeatedly lied to me and took advantage of me. There is no excuse for her actions and even though she has read these posts she has not said one thing to defend herself.
I am an honest person and if she makes the situation right I will update my post and let the community know.
No, I get your posts are not under an alias and if you read my first post you will note that I parenthectically exclude your post from many others that have either an alias or no reviews. I do not discount your post in any way. It's just all the odd follow ups to your post with all the bashing coming form either alias folks (whether it be providers or hobbyists hard to tell-read some of the prior posts) or dudes that have no reviews. No judgement here. I have never met Tasha and have no comment. It's just the comments in the thread (again, after your initial post) mostly are either alias posts or from folks with no reviews. I would also say I get, based on your story, you got screwed but I wonder whether this is the right venue as opposed to say the reviewers only board to start with? I know I have no right to question, but I wonder if in the fiuture one might try a little less public venue ( and perhaps you did) to vent this first? Enough said and keep us posted on the outcome.
I gave her the opportunity to discuss this face to face and she made the plan to do it and blew me off. I asked several people here for advice on how to handle it and they asked me to post it here and that I was not critical enough of her behavior. I was not on the reviews site or knew nothing about it until after I posted here.
okay. If you go to the top tab" discussion boards" and then to the sub tab "more" and under the more tab you will find reviewers only which has a few threads about this topic that are alledgely only open to view by VIP types. Dude I am not questioning your posting because I have no idea. Just giving some options for the future.
But what do my reviews have to do with me rendering an opinion? All my reviews are going to tell you is how well I do my job as provider. Nothing more and nothing less. Unless you truly believe that my ability to suck cock somehow related to my mental capacity or credibility.
Yes, occasionally aliases are used for vicious personal attacks. However, there are very legitimate reasons why people may choose to use one. For example, someone may want to be able to express his/her opinion and not have it easily googled.
Even under this alias I can assure you that sun will come up tomorrow. I have no dog in this fight. All I did was answer your question. If you are not satisfied with it for whatever reason, posting it under my "real" ID won't make any difference, will it?
The End.
You can feel free to discount any post you like, but if you pay attention to my moderating style, you'll see that I'm far more likely to allow HER to state her opinion than to listen to you piss & moan about aliases.
I guarantee you that several of the people posting here are upset at the news and not wanting to trash her unless/until the allegations are proven to be true. I find it to be quite understandable that they would use an alias in this situation.
You can probably kiss that Whitelisting goodbye, along with your deposit.
I am shocked at what you have said as it does not portray the Tasha I know at all.
I can tell that you are doing your best to tell the facts, but there has to be more going on.
This makes no sense at all to me.
If this all works out in the end, it would be good to post something.
Balboa
Pretty sad when the best white knight is MP67.
Seriously, all white knight responses are irrelevant until Tasha posts.
IMO most are jumping to conclusions without knowing the whole story. I have seen Tasha several times (dates) and outside of the hobby we have had drinks and talks. She has always been honest and up front with me. I have purchased items for her when she had a child and this was with NO asking on her part, as a matter a fact she told me it was to much at the time. No one has mentioned anything here about her fear of flying and I know that trying to get on that flight ended with a trip to the hospital with an anexity attack. We need to butt out and let these two have time to settle this out before we make such quick judgements. After all he said himself "Since my return Tasha has promised to make payments until the debt is paid in full and apologized for the situation."

......After all he said himself "Since my return Tasha has promised to make payments until the debt is paid in full and apologized for the situation."
If that is true "Tasha has promised to make payments until the debt is paid in full and apologized for the situation."............................then why did the buy who originally posted the complaint write the post at all? Did she renig on that promise and apology - or? It certainly doesnt make sense if that is what she did to start complaining--unless something else occurred that he is not stating

[guote] My situation is very similar to an incident that happened with another gentleman about 2 years ago and is very well documented.
even though she does have a fear of flying (or at least so she says) she does get on planes and has flown to Hawaii.
Again, don't denigrate what others are saying unless you know it not to be true. I know for a fact that she has flown round trip to Hawaii and to many other cities despite her "fear of flying."
Besides.. if she was scared of flying, why would she accept the offer on the first place... ????
She accepted the offer for the $$$. It's always about the $$$.
When she realized she could make the same or more without flying she decided to go to LA.
Plus, she flies more than you and some of the others think. Someone else said it perfectly, she tells you what she wants you to know and nothing more.
That's fine. She accepted an other offer. Fair enough. Then she should pay back the other guy and call it a day. We are not talking about $100 here..If not, then she should be ready to take some heat. Either ways, I don't understand how she can be defended if she does not pay him back.
I am not a stalker. I was aware of her fear of flying but she assured me that it would not be an issue. She was nervous but why would she agree to the trip if she wasn't ok with the flight?
I've joked with her about this and it scares her shitless.
When she posted on the GD Board about what to do when she got there, I posted I was surprised she was flying.
I talked to her that night on the way to the airport and she wasn't 'Tash'.
Yeah, that's right. I talked with her on the way. Asked her if she was alright, and she just deflected everything. She knew what I was talking about. Fucking little toughy is scared to get on a fucking plane.
And this fucking asshole, who sends me PMs won't acknowledge the fact and thinks it's a hit to him, even though they've seen each other and she white listed his sorry ass.
Give her the benefit of the doubt, fucker. She'll make it up to you.
You know what gets me? You were friends by your own admission. But you're more worried about your pride than her reputation. And you're presumed friendship, up until now.
You took a young, beautiful mind and twisted it beyond repair. Hope you're happy with yourself.
Me? I'll wait. She's a toughy, I know. And I'll be there for her when she needs or even wants it.
You guys never cease to amaze me with the retarded excuses you'll make for a girl who you really do not know much about at all. You know what she wants you to know. She has done this not once, but twice....that we know of.
Let's say she does have a fear of flying......did that fear of getting on a plane also prevent her from sending him back his money?
Lady, you're talking out of your ass! You have no fucking idea who I know and what we talk about. The time we spend together, the shit we talk about, and the things we do together.
Let me make this clear. Right here and fucking now. TashaVegas is the shit. I'll take every fucking one of you on for as long as it takes. THAT'S how much I care about MY friend.
NEXT!!!!!!!!!!!
Then pay her debt to clear her name & she can pay you back, buddy.
Jeebus christ! I was gonna post the same thing.if she has a fear of flying why agree? As always, money makes people do things they wouldn't normally do. And let me tell you a little story,i knew a girl better then anyone, we'd spend nights together, just hang out, all off the clock. I'd seen this lady cry many times with her sob stories. She seemed really cool and I thought we were friends. Boy was I fucking wrong, but I had my blinders on and I only saw what SHE ALLOWED ME TO SEE. I guarantee you I knew her better then you know tasha,i met her family and friends. Well lets just say she will do whatever is necessary to get what she wants. I'm not saying all, but I'm sure a good portion of providers are this way,treating some guys like shit, taking advantage when they can, but keeping there white knights happy so they can always come to there rescue. When I put my rob report out you should have seen how many pm's I got saying man shes going through a tough time, or man she owes me way more then that, and just a genuine pussy whipped fest of guys coming to this bitches defense (i never call a lady a bitch, she was a bitch). It wasn't till about after a year later more people started coming forward. so I guess you may be a lucky one who will never get to see the real her, just the fake, charming, likeable facade she allows you to see. Some of these women are beautiful on the outside, but they are the ugliest person ever inside.
Thank God someone has the nerve to post what it really is about for the MAJORITY of women who enter this biz (not all, just the big picture overall).
Let's face it, this biz doe not attract your normal gal Fridays who just say "Let's fuck random strangers for money" and be able to deal with the emotional and spiritual repercussions of doing so on a daily basis. They are either mature people who can make difficult decisions and do so consciously, or they do so out of no education and a selfish "me me me" mentality.
The mindset has to be there already, and most people who operate on the fringe already will have no problem jumping head first into this biz with visions of easy money and high living (but have no idea of the value of money) dancing in their heads.
There is a reason it is illegal everywhere but a few places...because it attracts liars, deceivers, manipulators, cheaters, pussies, emotional cripples, bullies, and ACTRESSES...among a small percentage of well adjusted folks on both sides.
Well put and right on the MONEY !!! No pun intended .... couldnt not of been put any better than you did, now if only WK like MP67 et all could only SEE this for what it is geeeeeeeezzzzz Louise.
Guys WAKE UP and smell the roses will ya.
Unfortunately the cold steel blade of truth hurts
and what he is pointing put below is the slap in the face truth unfortunately

Well Tasha might have a fear of flying but she will fly for the money and she has flown a lot! Next White Knight statement please! LOL
Lady went almost 3 weeks without seeing her kids to fuck our sorry asses for money back in September. Drove her vehicle, which I've been a passenger of many times, from Vegas, thru NM, Texas, Oklahoma, to Tennessee and Kentucky and back.
I'm sharing way too much information with you fucking assholes in defense of her and possibly damaging my own relationship with her, but I don't care. She knows, and I know.
The fact of the matter is, I'll fight with you all fucking day and night for Tasha.
You do that for friends and people you care about. That's the way I was raised, and I'm not changing anytime soon.
so who am I to say she didn't? She told me she swam so I believe her because she's always nice to me plus I have no reason to believe she didn't swim to Hawaii.
Now that I think about it, Osama bin Laden told me personally that the US government flew those planes into the world train center towers and the pentagon . . . so there!!!
It's easy to argue against using an alias when you're the white knight or shill. It's a whole other issue if you use your "real handle" to criticize a popular escort especially when you want to see others in the same city.
After you've been around for a number of years like me you learn that a bad review or a critical post opens you up to a thrashing from white knights. It can affect who will or won't see you and of course you have no idea what the provider might be saying about you on the private provider only board. And some of these providers are personal friends of the moderators which can also have some influence about how the post is handled (this is a generic statement - I have no idea of this board's moderator knows her or not).
People want to believe the fantasy and anyone who criticizes it is demeaned. Also, many providers have loyal friends who will jump into defend them. How many hobbyists have someone who will jump in to defend them? So, as you can see, the deck is stacked against the hobbyist whenever he makes a critical post. For that reason and the fact that the OP used his real handle, I would tend to believe what he is saying, as he is knowingly exposing himself to a lot of criticism.
I have to use an alias because i've tried the other approach and it hurt me personally even though my posts were accurate. So I don't buy the argument that posts under an alias have no value.
I have seen Tasha both before and after her name change. At one time she was my ATF. And while she didn't directly steal money from me the reason I stopped seeing her was because of lies, manipulation, and similar behavior. So based on what the OP has posted, previous similar posts by others, PMs, and my personal experience none of this surprises me. When she was my ATF I would never believe what the OP posted. I now know better.
What is annoying is how some people jump to her defense simply because they have yet to experience the problems and so assume they never occur. I think that's simply a sign of lack of experience or even ignorance.
The Bottom Line....is:
If you did this to a provider in reverse and had her thinking she was going away for a week and you did not give her a deposit (that she could keep in case you blew her off) and you blew her off last minute- i am sure a that provider would probably never see you again (because she probably blew off many other appointments because she thought she was going away for a week and if there is a message board on the provider side she would probably post it on there to "warn" other providers that you did not come through on a commitment---etc
So --if it happens that a provider --makes a commitment to spend time with someone and then blows off that person at the last minute and that person bought tickets and hotel based on that committment and could have just stayed home and kept the money he spent on travel to see others locally then that seems like something other people should at least be told as well just like the reverse above
MP67, since you are so certain Tasha would NEVER rip you or anyone else off, why don't you & her other WK's get together & pay him back the money she owes him. Then she can pay you guys back.....
Jerrica... I think I just fell in love lol. But damn i love me a smart witty woman, and you my dear fit the bill
LOL won't hold my breath waiting for this to happen
If you are not willing to pay the debt for Tasha, quit justifying for her stealing.
Geez I can't believe how naive some ppl are
Thank you guys! All I am saying to her WK's who claim they will "fight for her" is....put your money where your mouth is or STFU. It's quite simple really.
Man up and quit whining - you're both here in Vegas, book some appointments and let her work it off.
Is that so f'in complicated?
Hey - it's hooker 101 pal. $$$ is a one-way street. You get pussy, never cash. Deal with it.
Somehow importing a hooker in honor of your dead mother doesn't stir up a lot of sympathy for me. You could try Oprah but her show ended.
Really Puck? I paid for an experience not to have appointments here in Vegas. Would you expect me to trust her to deliver those experiences here so she can work it off much less that I would want to see her after this? She lied to me several times and I told her that if she did it again we would be done. She chose to lie to me and went to LA to work other appointments in her own words. I am not whining I am simply telling the community that this provider who even as of last week had people rave about how reliable she is proved to me that she isn't reliable. If I am out the money so be it I knew the chances when I gave it to her but I trusted that she wouldn't cheat me out of it. I learned my lesson.
Atta boy Puck say it like it is
Perhaps if you told everyone just how much money you are talking about here they would have a better understanding. Not my place to say it though, so I'll leave that up to you 
The agreement was for $7000 for the trip. The ticket was $700 plus there was a personal loan that was over an above bringing the amount over $8000.
You're an idiot.
Let's have a new thread - everyone who has gotten $$$ back from an escort post it here.
*cricket**cricket*
It's simply not in the nature of the beast.
Period.
If you hand $$$ to an escort you consider it gone forever - or you don't hand it over.
An escort that I considered a friend yes I did. Have you never made a mistake? I trusted her and I it didn't work out. C'est la vie
If you can piss away 8g's and say 'C'est la vie', obviously it's not the money deal. You're pride got ran the fuck over. Tell me I'm wrong?
You're not doing anybody a service by starting this thread. You're whining like a little kid cuz you want to go to Disneyland.
You fucked up. You gave a provider money upfront and your dream date didn't go as planned. Boo fucking hoo.
I'll turn you on to a little secret though. I gave Tasha money upfront too, tee hee hee. And guess what? I had a fucking blast seeing her! Again and again!
Sucks to be me sometimes! 
He obviously knows he screwed up & is out the money, but that doesn't lessen her responsibility in all of this. AT ALL
This is not an issue with ALL providers, this is an issue with providers who get their jobs confused with a social networking venture. I have been in this business at some level or another FOR OVER 20 YEARS....not once ever under any circumstances have I EVER ripped off or been suspected of ripping off, or came close to ripping off a client. I have BORROWED money from a client AND PAID HIM BACK IN CASH A WEEK BEFORE I PROMISED TO GIVE IT BACK TO HIM.....I tried to OVERPAY HIM..... Why did I have to borrow the money in the first place, because I really did have an extreme family emergency (someone murdered my nephew....and I had to go home the day I got the news) and had just paid every bill I have 6 months in advance.
Please READ my profile and my reviews. I had a client AT MY CURRENT rates (do the math) take me to PEBBLE Beach for a total of 5 days. All of which was paid up front and weeks in advance. My review from said client is HONEST, FAIR AND SOLID. Allure does not fuck around with other peoples money. It brings bad karma, would ruin my business, and I do not have the fortitude to steal.....
Last month I had 20K sitting in my "DEPOSITS" account.....I was unable to keep the appointment and refunded the entire amount in full without any drama...I took a 1K hit giving the money back and that is fine....I just wanted to be fair....you will not see a thread, hear a rumor, or a fucking peep out of the client who was paying to take me to Fiji....Ya know why Puck? BECAUSE THIS IS A BUSINESS. I gave that man back his money without blinking an eye....and no it is not a case of: "Well good for you Allure you have it like that" nope it is ok this is how A BUSINESS IS SUPPOSED TO BE ADMINISTERED. I had a conversation with the client who gave me 20K and I came to the conclusion that I was not going to be a good fit for him, gave him ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL HIS MONEY BACK, and declined the appointment.
As of right now I have a $$$$$$ deposit sitting in my deposits account, I will not touch it, until I am in the airport LEAVING the city my appointment is in.....which will be after the appointment. Why do I wait? BECAUSE THIS IS A BUSINESS. Clients are not atm machines, they expect me to be personable and professional....and it is EXACTLY what I do. Show up do my job and go home. My lights, gas, food, clothes, and other bills are accounted for by properly BUDGETING....the money I EARNED....not the money I will earn.....NO PUCK I PAY MY BILLS VIA money on hand for cocks already sucked.
And no this is not odd for PROFESSIONAL companions to keep accounts set up specifically for deposits and not spend the money until after the appointment, it is not odd that I needed help and broke my neck to pay back the client who loaned me money....it is called BEING FISCALLY RESPONSIBLE. Being a provider doesn't mean we are all automatically financially RETARDED......being financially RETARDED is a character flaw.......it has nothing to do with our jobs.
I feel horrible for the OP.....8K is a lot of money. Oddly enough I feel really bad for Tasha, I am at a loss for words.
But Puck you cannot generalize or lump all providers together.....we do not all take advantage of our clients..........some of us have our businesses set up as actual businesses, pay taxes, and treat our clients well.....it is hell trying to get a new client....it is very easy to keep the loyal clients that I have amassed over the years by continuing to be honest and fair with them.
Respectfully,
Allure
but the exceptions prove the rule, as the saying goes.
Be honest - how many providers would you lend or advance money to?
Not many, I'd bet.
I've helped ladies out a few times when they were in need. They know who they are. One or two probably laugh about how they got over on me, or think they played me for a fool. That's not the case, because I helped them for my own reasons. Google 'metta'. The only time I've ever brought it up with them is if they asked for more, and then I gently remind them of the previous debt only to explain why the tap is shut off.
If you expect repayment from an escort, you're a fool. That applies to 99.9% of escorts. Congratulations for being in the .1%
You can't say that only applies to escorts.....what you just said could easily be applied to humans in general. That's why they say you should never loan money to a friend, is it not?
and will do it again, but only on "great if I get it back, no hardship if i don't" basis.
Thanks for the reinforcement.
And the very same people who are screaming bloody murder here will be saying "OMG you are so great!"
Kind of funny.
I do not lend money to anyone......If I can afford it I will gladly give it to the person asking...and not expect it back. If I get the money back.....I am always pleasantly shocked.
If SOMEONE IS ASKING FOR MONEY IT MEANS THEY DON'T HAVE ANY MONEY.....NOR WILL THEY HAVE ANY MONEY IN THE FORESEEABLE SHORT TERM FUTURE....SO WHY WOULD I THINK THEY WOULD HAVE MONEY TO RETURN MY MONEY? I am not a bank or a collection agency.....the FDIC does not govern my purse......
Even the Bible says: A fool and his MONEY are soon parted.
I am sorry but the OP is an idiot.......Tasha is no stranger to trainwrecks, websites built in honor of her handy work, or angry ex clients she has ripped off and friends she has crossed. Once is a mistake....several times is a business trait.
Why anyone would give HER a dime in advance is simple.....she is young, blonde, white, blue eyes, a tiny spinner body, manipulative, and needs a SAG, Tony, Emmy, Grammy, and any other Award for her acting skills....had this been my old ass.....I WOULD BE DELISTED....banned...and allllllll fucked up.
....and no I am not hating.......I have no desire to be untrustworthy.....I actually LOVE MY JOB AND I HAVE A HEART...ALLLLLLLLLLLLLL MY CLIENTS KNOW I AM TRUSTWORTHY.......I have been called "MEAN" I am very MEAN....I MEAN it when I say I will show up and do my job and leave drama free...I MEAN EVERY WORD OF IT...and I MEAN IT when I say I can be trusted with a deposit......so yeah I am MEAN AS HELL.
8,000.00 IS A LOT OF FUCKING MONEY....I can buy a motorcycle with that, or get my boobs done....and I think the idea that the White Knights on this trainwreck should anti up and send this man his money...then wait for the Damsel in Distress to repay them is a wonderful idea....bc none of this hits home/pockets for any of them UNTIL THEY ARE OUT OF 8k.
This reflects poorly upon those of us who do what the hell we are supposed to be doing.....but men don't seem to respect or want to see smart girls....who don't confuse a client with an atm machine, or the hobby for FACEBOOK!...oh no we are way too business like.....yes we are which is why we don't steal from our clients......
Speaking of the Damsel.....WHY AINT SHE ON THIS THREAD DEFENDING HERSELF.... SAYING SOMETHING?....ANYTHING.....HELLO IS THIS THING ON? HELLO...anyone helloooooooo?
I thought we would be.
As far as where t is on this thread, if she's as smart as ZI think she is she's working it out with the OP instead of volunteering for a lynching.
I still say he could put this to bed by negotiating a local trip - or several - and not 'banking' on someone who, for whatever reason, finds it difficult or impossible to fly long distances to overcome their phobia just for him. I'd be wiling to bet he'd wind up with a stellar deal and at a rate he would be wise to keep quiet about.
Bottom line, someone doesn't have to lose in order for there to be a winner.
Driving to Hawaii is not an option, Amtrak is not, a cruise was not an option on the table ....the flight phobia drama is non sense. The appointment should have been declined straight away....as soon as the venue was mentioned. I will not leave the country with a new client....I have been asked and there was no need for me to repay shit bc the request was IMMEDIATELY DECLINED. So there was no exchange of money. She should have never taken a dime knowing she is terrified to fly.
No, she is not smart, at all!!!! Smart business people KNOW their weaknesses and handle them. Her weakness is she cannot deal with other peoples money....cure for that.......STOP DOING MULTI DAYS...ONLY WORK WHERE SHE CAN DRIVE....AND REFUSE TO TAKE DEPOSITS........
Puck I love you too pieces, but there is no excuse for any of her behavior........had she been using her brain there would be no train wreck with her as the topic on any board.......if she has money issues I get that I respect that...being a provider is the fastest way on Earth to fix that, but to remain in business she has to do HER JOB and stop stealing money.
She is a well reviewed young beautiful girl with a great body.......there is no reason for this drama. Young, beautiful girls, with great bodies, should be making more than 90% of their clients....whisper that back to yourself SHE SHOULD BE MAKING MORE THAN 90% OF HER CLIENTS.....I am an OLDDDDD BLACK LADY AND I CAN PULL IT OFF....so no I am not buying into the: let's feel sorry for her.
To steal $8,000.00 from someone who is supposed to be her friend and who just lost his Momma.....do you have any clue how HARD THAT IS? That is some fucked up ass shit. He just burried his MOMMA, lost 8K, spent a week alone in paradise, and got ripped off....and is now having to beef on a hooker board....and he is never going to see a dime? ITS FUCKED UP. Puck it is fucked up....although he is a blazing idiot....I feel bad for the OP.......this is not cool.
going to have a puff and a smile.
This reflects poorly upon those of us who do what the hell we are supposed to be doing.....but men don't seem to respect or want to see smart girls....who don't confuse a client with an atm machine, or the hobby for FACEBOOK!...oh no we are way too business like.....yes we are which is why we don't steal from our clients......

okay so its now 2011 and I see the same story....and I'm still getting the same feedback.
I can give you THE VERY SAME FEEDBACK MYSELF! Just since Nov ALONE ...I have hired 3 assistants to help my with my business......All three were venomous snakes and yes I blacklisted them!!! I was threatened to outed to Metro if I didnt pay her $80...one actually did calld vice because I wouldnt be her personal cash puppet....so on and so on......and these are only my own personal stories....the OP lost out on his 8 grand but at least he wasnt threatened felony charges over $80.......
So I hear the same story all the time with my potential clients who decide to go with "the other choice"
and everytime.....I shake my head....I cant make you do what you dont want to do.
You blasted the fuck out of me and told ladies not to see me because I'm a drunk and perceived as unstable. You fucking forget 'why' I go off on people. Because I fucking care about the one's that get beat up on and you were a witness to that.
You with your crocodile tears, asking me to stop when it was your fucking friend that was starting all the shit. You taught me a lesson that night, that's for fucking sure. I might've been drunk, but I remember WTF.
Now you fucking go off on how you pay back if you can't commit to the appointment? Tell them how when you make an extended engagement that two thirds of that time is spent on 'Allure'. Shopping. Eating. Buying you drinks you drink cuz of the high price and not cuz it gets you buzzed.
You're such a fucking hypocrite. Even when you went on that Showtime deal, Gigolos or what the fuck ever, that was totally fake.
Just shut your fucking mouth. You know, I used to love and respect you. We, or actually I, had a lot of fun when we got together. Then you fucked me. You didn't even give me the respect of lubing up. You just stuck it in, dry. I forgive, but I don't forget.
I might be a drunk, but people know where I come from. I don't use alias' and they see everything. Warts and all.
YOU, on the otherhand, are someone to be leary of. Sometimes I miss the shit out of you, and sometimes I wish I never met you.
BTW, even though you took down my white list, I leave your review up just to spite you. Cuz I want everybody to know, even though it repulses you, that at one time we got along.
You have a great weekend, inspite of...
I've been enjoying the trainwreck so far but Allure has made a FABULOUS point. I have a very similar method of running my business as Allure... it's simply called operating with INTEGRITY.
Unfortunately, there are folks on both side of the envelope who lack this quality and it's a sad day for anyone when they run across them.

Respectfully,

You have no right to jump into this like you have a vested interest and then calling him an idiot.
I think he has already considered what he can call himself without your help.
And the way you shade *ALL* providers into one same class is pathetic. You know as a fucking moderator you should have a little more class than to start name calling when you have no dog in this fight. But, many of us do know your style. It precedes you.
Some girls conduct their business in a professional manner, other do not. Some gals take deposits and pay it back or live up to the agreement, some do not. Some girls seem like they are always needing money, for rent, their kids, utility bills, etc., others would not even think of it. Don't lump them all together.
AMEN!
I'm not a moderator and my opinion is as valid as anyones. Kiss my ass.
Go fuck yourself little man.
All I know is that in 2 years as a mod on a dozen different boards nobody ever once accused me of extorting free sessions from providers. Unless you can say the same, take your wannabe-pimp hat and stuff in in your festering gob. Or is that failed-pimp hat?
You acting like you even know where the high road is - that's some funny shit.
And for a rumor that started some 6-7 years ago, you still carry it forward. That and you know nothing about the rumor or its truth. Won't waste my time explaining it to a mindless fuck, with no more nobility that what you have.
Puck the Fuck... that is the one I remember. Go piss up a fucking rope. I'm all done with your childish shit.
We all have our circle of friends don't we? Thankfully they do not run into each other. lmfao
I'm definitely with Puck on this one. How's your deal going, BTW?
Sanctimonious motherfucker.
Almost forgot about your old ass, but I do hope you're feeling better.
In any case, the fact of the matter is Tasha's deal. You saw her as well as me and a few other 'gents'.
You have a problem with her? I don't. She walks on water as far as I'm concerned. Call me pussy whipped, white knight, WTF ever. That lady treats me with respect WITHOUT a fucking envelope.
I got all goddam day to go up against you and everybody else that talks shit about her.
Let's go.
You want to go around with me is that it?
As soon as I get through with my surgery and can breath again, I'll look you up on that one okay.
As for Tasha, don't drag me into this. I know who Tasha is. I have known of her and about her for years. However, "You saw her as well as me and a few other 'gents'" could not be further from the truth. Don't know where you heard that one. I have never seen her with her cloths off except at a pool party and that was all good. But no, I did have never "see her".
One day, a scorpion looked around at the mountain where he lived and decided that he wanted a change. So he set out on a journey through the forests and hills. He climbed over rocks and under vines and kept going until he reached a river.
The river was wide and swift, and the scorpion stopped to reconsider the situation. He couldn't see any way across. So he ran upriver and then checked downriver, all the while thinking that he might have to turn back.
Suddenly, he saw a frog sitting in the rushes by the bank of the stream on the other side of the river. He decided to ask the frog for help getting across the stream.
"Hellooo Mr. Frog!" called the scorpion across the water, "Would you be so kind as to give me a ride on your back across the river?"
"Well now, Mr. Scorpion! How do I know that if I try to help you, you wont try to kill me?" asked the frog hesitantly.
"Because," the scorpion replied, "If I try to kill you, then I would die too, for you see I cannot swim!"
Now this seemed to make sense to the frog. But he asked. "What about when I get close to the bank? You could still try to kill me and get back to the shore!"
"This is true," agreed the scorpion, "But then I wouldn't be able to get to the other side of the river!"
"Alright then...how do I know you wont just wait till we get to the other side and THEN kill me?" said the frog.
"Ahh...," crooned the scorpion, "Because you see, once you've taken me to the other side of this river, I will be so grateful for your help, that it would hardly be fair to reward you with death, now would it?!"
So the frog agreed to take the scorpion across the river. He swam over to the bank and settled himself near the mud to pick up his passenger. The scorpion crawled onto the frog's back, his sharp claws prickling into the frog's soft hide, and the frog slid into the river. The muddy water swirled around them, but the frog stayed near the surface so the scorpion would not drown. He kicked strongly through the first half of the stream, his flippers paddling wildly against the current.
Halfway across the river, the frog suddenly felt a sharp sting in his back and, out of the corner of his eye, saw the scorpion remove his stinger from the frog's back. A deadening numbness began to creep into his limbs.
"You fool!" croaked the frog, "Now we shall both die! Why on earth did you do that?"
The scorpion shrugged, and did a little jig on the drownings frog's back.
"I could not help myself. It is my nature."
Then they both sank into the muddy waters of the swiftly flowing river.
I believe this story is often used to describe nature of female friendships
So her behavior is acceptable because its her nature?
The OP takes a big personal risk by warning other members of a bad experience he had with a provider. Isn't that what this board is about? Helping each other out?
Or is the purpose of the board to run free advertising for a bunch of escorts with a handful of white knights and shills repeatedly piling on hoping for personal "favors?"
I appreciate his candor and if he helps prevent one other person from getting ripped off then hats off to him.
The rest of you white knights don't have a clue.
The truth is a beautiful thing no matter how ugly it is...but the white knights and "let's be fair and hear both sides of the story" people like having their heads buried in the sand.
She has priors, people...got it? But she is still such a good person and popular so she gets a free pass...nothing new under the sun here or anywhere for that matter.

Very well put !
The guy gets ripped off, and some of you sniveling WK's have her toes stuck in your mouths.
This type of behavior from a provider is even more disgusting. This is not her first rodeo ripping someone off. How some of you guys can come on here and kiss her ass amazes me. This behavior should not be tolerated on either side.
To the OP. Yes, you were stupid for paying her in advance, especially with her reputation. Research is your friend. Good luck in getting paid back. The money is probably already spent.
Sorry this happened to you. It's a lot of cash to get stolen.
The subject matter is Latin for "buyer beware".
I can certainly see why lv posted this "alert" & can empathize with him regarding the loss of his Mom; I lost my Dad in Dec. & traumatic events like that have a way of fucking one's head over.
But, LV, dude, regardless of family tragedies, that does NOT explain laying out an 8k DEPOSIT IN ADVANCE ! I'm no MENSA member ( which I'm sure will get some agreement here )but I wouldn't pay ONE FUCKING CENT IN ADVANCE FOR A "DEPOSIT" ! What you did was so spectacularly lacking in common sense that it understandably mitigates sympathy for you from many on this board.
Still, that being said, I'm very sorry about the run of bad luck that you've had this year.
It is not unreasonable for a guy to give a girl a deposit on a trip like that. Not at all.
However, people emphasizing his actions more than hers is BS.
What is he guilty of? Trusting her far too much.
What is she guilty of? Leaving him hanging @ the airport, on vacation in Hawaii alone with nothing but time to think about how he just got fucked. She stole 8,000 from him. That is a felony.
& you misunderstand me; if she's guilty of what's she's accused of, fucking reprehensible & she would justify the condemnnation & bad rep. that would be heaped upon her.
That being said, I'd still like to hear Tasha's side of the story here, along with pertinent facts coming from all quarters. "More" you gotta humor me about this "quirk" I have about "innocent until proven guilty"-------
I'm sure we would all love to hear what she has to say. She is aware of this blog. She has contacted the author of it.
Her silence speaks volumes.
The last time she got the jump start on the other hobbyist. This time she didn't.
I also have know Tasha for many years but from this report and pass reports I will NEVER!! pay her up front Tasha gives great service on a single or Multi hour Date. She has a wonderful heart but is youg and struggling as a single Mother. If you can not afford to give a upfront depoist. Know you may never get it back don't do it.
lvbhm4fun I hope she makes arragements with you to pay you back but if she doesn't it was a expensive lession to learn. I do hope TASHSA also learned a lession as to accepting depoist and as Allure commented put it in a account and DO NOT spend it until the trip is taken. Will I see Tasha again Of course Will I ever give her a Depoist No Way
The OP did what he wanted to do.
It still does not seem like the Tasha I know, so I hope the OP and she are talking.
If i was her, I would not want to do anything in this thread. Do it offline.
Nothing more is gained by continuing this thread.
I have loaned money to ladies and have been paid back in cash or pleasure. Only one person did not pay me back. It is between the two of us and as someone said already about if they needed it, what makes you think they can pay you back.
That said, I only had one other person in my life not pay me back everything owed. Also a lady in trouble, but a friend and coworker then. Don't get all upset. You give loans to help someone out. If they screw up, why raise your blood pressure over it. Mind you when someone does pay you, then you do get to feel good for helping.
I have gone on extended trips and I have paid much more than the OP did in this instance. In a few cases, it was up front. No drama, it is a business. I did several small trips prior to taking a long trip.
I guess if the OP did know about her flight issues, it would have been best not to temp the great god Murphy as he did. No excuses for her as to why she would have accepted.
So let the OP and Tasha work this out
For what ever it is worth, my personal opinion of this whole mess, "PUT IT TO REST". tHIS BACK AND FORTH bULLSHIT HAS GONE ON LONG ENOUGH. Little Phil, don't you think enough has been said for this topic?? Any more should be handled back channel, and no more public shit! Like I said, just my .02 opinion, and I am sure I am not alone in this. Grow up people!!!
if it was the other way around and the hobbyist robbed the provider his name will show up on a blacklist and that's fine but why the guy should not alert other hobbyists when it is the provider being the rob? the op should write a rip off review so it will stick on her profile before everyone forget..
Any further postings will be pulled, the poster moderated, and moderated posters will be dealt with harshly. I will allow Tasha one opportunity to reply, but nothing else by anyone.
