You're right to ignore them, BP is a cesspool. Another one to lookout for is "asexyservice" as it's just an ad scraper and is just as bad.

Some of what you're seeing on these sites is legit. In my experience somewhere around 10% is provably legit, another 15% is iffy, the rest is garbage. Most of the garbage is just bait and switch, so you're not going to ever see the girl in the photos, because she is likely an instagram model that has had her pictures stolen. LE also loves backpage, and usually uses fake images like this to setup stings.  

 
Other major red flags I've learned are providers on TER that have 1 review by someone who has never reviewed before, these are likely fake reviews, provided they're positive (ie 6 or higher performance/looks rating). They're also more likely to be fake if they only have backpage, or a site like asexyservice as their website/ad links. If they're negative, they could also be fake, but far less likely.

Only on BP there are smoking hot girls ready to bend over for $80 and will go BBFS for $100. Don't waste your time with BP unless you are located in an area that has no other advertising option.  

BP is like the casinos where the house always wins and sometimes you get lucky.

don't give the BP gals a second thought.

In addition to all of the scams (cash and dash, upselling, etc.), a lot of the ladies on BP seem to have the strategy of trying to just get the guy out there.  All too often, once the guy is out there he "thinks with the little head" and "even though it wasn't the girl in the pics" he decides to stay because he has already expended resources.

Not all BP ads are scams and Bait and switches, (as some folks onTER would have you believe). However, very close to 100% of the ones that look TGTBT are! If there is a really hot photo and a really low price, it is a scam, bait and switch, or police sting.  Why do they work? Because a lot of guys don't think clearly, (thinking with the wrong head) and a lot of people are gullible. Same reason there are still scam emails from Nigerian princes, and friends stuck in foreign countries. Enough idiots fall for it that the scammers make a profit. Sometimes they just need one idiot to fall for it.

...a massage. To my surprise the photos were accurate too. But that, as most here know, is very rare on BP. I guess the providers who post fake pics are hoping that once you get there you'll go thru with it rather than make a scene. They are relying on a hobbyists paranoia and general fears that go along with this hobby.

If you see a tempting picture that might be TGTBT, you can do a reverse image lookup using any of several services. Frequently you will find that the picture is of a real model working in some other city or country. There was a case of pics being stolen from a photographer's website. Even if it is a picture of a real Provider or Porn Star, it does mean that she is escorting in your city but that someone may have stolen her pics to use in their own ad.

Thanks. I always do a google search on the number to check for reviews. I was really just curious what happens. I think the whole point of being here is to be an educated consumer/provider.
