Thats what it cost to try to set up a mtg with the phoney Rachael: $275 as 50 percent deposit plus $29 fee from Western Union. call me dickhead from now on (in fact thats a great name; I will change immediately!!).

Can you give us any specifics?

You were WARNED a few threads below!!!!  There's a sucker born every minute. A number of your TER buddies  stated DON'T send a deposit to someone with no positive track record!!!!!

Sorry you got taken.  Most of the providers are hard working honest women who only want to please.  Learn from this and you won't make the same mistake again.  Also, we are here on the boards to assist you in any questions that you may have.

Let hope this will be the last time we will call you a DICKHEAD.

This was stated several times in the Rachael thread below, but it bears repeating: Never, ever send a deposit, the only exception being a lady with many (I'd say 25 minimum) excellent reviews and a sterling reputation.

I have given a deposit exactly twice in my time in this hobby, both times to ladies with solid gold reputations. One has become a friend who I have seen several times since (with no advance deposit, obviously); the other had to cancel the appointment for personal reasons of her own - I received a full refund and her heartfelt apologies within the hour!

But for a lady with no reviews and no reputation at all? Never, ever, no how, no way!!

Call it a learning experience. Be glad you didn't taken for more. Hang here more often and it will be alright!

Everyone warned you about her...but nevertheless...if you read the board and still went ahead...I commend and thank you for taking the hit and confirming what we all believed.

Chin up and tomorrow is another day.

Most of us can only guess that you would have been ripped off if you sent in the deposit to her. No one knew for sure, but we all took an educated guess. At least now we know for sure. I am sure that someone was thinking about sending her a deposit and then read your post and decided against doing it. Its a shame that you lost your money, but at least you let all of us know, so that we don't make the same mistake.

My understanding is that Western Union will have the recipient fill out a form and produce identification in order to retrieve the money.  Ask them for a receipt and maybe expose the rip-off artist.  On the flip side they might have your full information.  Whether or not you expose them, you should get a copy of the receipt in case they pull something else with you.

There are too many rip offs on that site. The good escorts suffer due to this bullshit. What a shame!

some good suggestions all around (particularly calling Eros. Oh, and by the way, if I spent more time reading these Boards I wouldn't have much time for anything else!!) But how about this: is there a computer whiz out there who could tell from the various emails I received from her, as well as a slew of pix, how to identify her, or at least track her down? like all the spam people do?

anyone in TER land seeing her shoould have steered you away.

Better luck next time.

Cheers!
