Fake reviews annoy providers, devalue TER, deceive newbies...
Calling them out is not easy either, especially when all you've got to go on is a sense of smell.

Two new reviews out today for providers new to MN, from the same area by someone from that area (apparently).
The appointments took place in MN according to the reviewer. However at least one of the women in question, by her own admission, won't arrive here until Tuesday.

Low and behold they posted in Tryst and the same guy just saw both of them.
Not sure is fake but would put money on a shill review /
No different when the day before some of the Russian  girls would be coming would change location and low and behold a new review would come so she would be found.

It's always a good idea to research the reviewers with new providers.  As you say it's not proof of fake reviews but it is certainly suspicious and worth warning others about.

...so the pants of the reviewer claiming to have seen them both in Bloomington are on fire.

ORanger, agreed a shill may be different from a total fake;  neither are helpful to the credibility of reviews in general.  
Ironically shills can be especially harmful to the providers' rep -- see the remarks about Olita in the thread below.
Some agencies don't care about such things, and accept the trade-off, and that has done harm to TER too.  Surely most individual providers probably do care, especially those who stay put and build a business.  

The consumers certainly care. It's almost a point of honor to point out the crap so that people (especially newbies) aren't duped. And it's more fun than ... monopoly.  But less fun than naked monopoly.

There are several things TER could do to improve. One of them would be to pay at least as much attention to the credibility of the reviews as they do to insisting on lots of dirty details.

My thought was, after all these years, some still go to Bloomington? Then there are the airport travelers.

I agree you need to look also at the reviewers as well.

But these two new ones that you mention are 50/50 on the smell test is you ask me (passing if fake or not).

If you look they have been seen in Denver area both of them.  The one has a twitter account and said on she was in MN back on Jan 25th or so.   So some of the stuff could possibly be where you are looking at "ads" and what not.

But I personally don't like Tryst.

But everyone stay safe out there and with TER coming back and new people in the mix vetting, fake reviews, and just lack of reviews... we all need to becareful and safe.  

This goes to clients seeing providers.... do what the providers ask with reguarding screening.  They screen for everyones safety.  

Stay safe.

Just to press the point.  
1. Provider #2 was not here when the review was posted. Take my word for it, I checked, not by reading an add.
2.  The reviewer seems to be based in the west, with handles on other boards. Imagine that's you.  Would you take a trip to MN to see providers from home?  

So as Old Ranger points out this is shilling at its finest.

All posted reviews by reviewer are the first for every provider, and they all are nothing less than 9&9.

All things considered, this is quite the scenario, many planets align well here.. Let's consider....

- This guy knows how to pick em without intel
- Has an amazing time, every time
- So great he doesn't repeat

You know where I am going on this... I could be wrong though...

Yes.... but I was reading into the Twitter page of the one.  In the guys review stated he saw them in Denver.

But yes... seems fishy as well.    

But stating facts that it could also possibly be real.... would I risk it... NO.  

agreed that the stars align for this reviewer often... LOL

But the one that "isn't in MN" yet... he reviewed in Denver.

But another thing to look at.... These two ladies are touring at the same time as well... here in MN.

Which is fishy to me as well.  When neither add talks about a possible "duo".

Also one of the providers reviewed like I mentioned on her twitter page said was in MN before any of her ads stated it.  So could be true she is in MN.   But reviewer also stated he saw one in Denver.

Too many things to consider and I am a pass on them....  

But to totally discredit isn't correct because there are some things that could make sense...

But great catch on the history of the reviewer.  

...so someone agrees with us.

Or if they noticed this thread on their own.

The problem is that the profiles will go into the cities of "other cities worked" as well. This guy just mixed up their main city with the city they live in.  
  If I was a lady that travelled alot I would change my city to where I am currently in so I pop up on top of the review pages and it makes me known and out there. Its called marketing.
  Both the Denver ladies were here (other sites said they were), May not have been exactly when the reviews came out but who cares.

I don't want to spend any more time on this, but...

When you and I write a review, one of the boxes you fill, manually, is location of encounter, or whatever it's called.
The guy from Denver filled in MOA for one and Bloomington for the other. Manually.  Manuel Lee.

So that was not an error.  It was a shill, designed to pop up on the MN list. I don't doubt that he knows the women. I do doubt that he saw them in Minnesota.  I do doubt the value of the reviews which were by definition deceptive, and we (MN folks) were being deceived.  

Don't let them get away with it.
