A couple of interesting situations in the past couple of months. First, I made the intro; her first line was, "I'll bet you cannot afford me?". I thought about what she meant... her pictures looked good but young. She told me what it was, and it was lower than usual for what she mentioned...red light went off in my head. So here it comes, she needs a 50% deposit because a deposit stops a  guy from committing violence.

The second one was that I was going to head out of town. I was thinking about surfside. I need help finding out more about her entry fee. She sends it back between a Hamilton/Cleveland and two. About a minute later, I got another text, and she said, "what's your budget?". This is the second or third time asking for my budget has come up. Do I need to bring my defibrillator, or does she have one?...for that amount? It's just interesting sometimes.

No need to know who the girl is.  

But i have so many questions.   I was curious to know if she was some random ad or if she was already established asking for a deposit like that.  

Maybe  she was new and hasn't learnt how to screen yet 🤔  

I just hope she finds a better way keeping herself safe.  

But it sounds like she might have been a scam  

But both very interesting indeed.  

All signs point to a scam. And never do deposits! Geez

"a deposit stops a  guy from committing violence."

I wonder how that is supposed to work.

This same excuse on why she needs a deposit has come up before...is this in some new handbook? I knew it was a scam; there was no intention after the deposit that she would show up. What was interesting, just for the hell of it, I said cash only, more than her rate, and she said no cash. It was just an experiment to see their reaction. You're right; I don't know how a deposit would stop the violence.

This defiantly was a scam

It was a random ad, and I'm 100% sure she was not an established escort. She had that "look," like some others on specific sites.  

She might have been new and thought it would be easy green paper, and she might even get a client once a week. Five franklins in a week for a 20yo for doing nothing ain't bad...times are tough.

 There's always the BF or friend waiting outside for protection. Those guys don't realize they could be in more trouble than her. Because it's called promotion for anybody to drive her to a date, actually anything to do with her business. Clients have been caught in this exact situation. If a traveling escort comes to town and a client picks her up at the airport. It's still a promotion for him, even driving her from the airport to her hotel.  

The last one is she was at the high end and didn't do very well at that rate; I decided against it...not for that amount. So I wonder if she puts in a wiggle room for the rate.

"because a deposit stops a guy from commiting violence"  This theory holds water if you keep the deposit and never see the guy.

Do not agree with you on much but Yup - !!!
Now personal ID may protect but doing that right after I send my deposit
