He (she) gave her(self) a score of 8 and 8.  Hah, if you believe that, I've got land in Florida to sell to you.  Honest, it isn't underwater....well at least not that much water!

Erecticon has only one review which also takes away his credibility.

If Erecticon is not Austin, then I would bet it is Bridgette.

I don't know how the TER ripoff banner got turned off for Austin, but obviously she must feeling the effect of people knowing that she is not worth a penny for her to fabricate this fake review.  It is almost believable.  

It seems to me that Staff should institute a policy where known ripoff providers can only get positive reviews posted by guys who have posted reviews against providers that are not on the ripoff list?

Austin an 8 in performance, maybe for trying to fake this review yes, for her sexual performance for a paying client, ROTFLMAO!

One can only second the above post.

When it comes to rip-offs in San Diego, Austin, along with her pal, Bridgette, belong to a whole new class.

There may even be an inside joke with her new "posters" handle: erecticon. It could be broken into the following: erect(ion)...i...con(game). I could easily imagine her having a good laugh, since the underpinnings of her cash-and-dash operations is that men are so stupid. If so, I can assure her that hobbyists in San Diego are not sharing the laugh.

I have posted a "problem report" for Austin with this erecticon, and hope that Staff will reinstate the "RIP-OFF" banner that she so richly deserves.

BTW, Austin on a personal note (since it's clear you devour these postings). When your looks fade in a few years and you're selling pencils by the side of the road, we won't be buying any of those either.

Is it possible that this "guy" really did see Austin and thinks that her service is top quality?  Maybe since he has only one review, this is the only person he has seen.

I personally believe that Austin and her friend don't give a damn about TER or their reviews.  They prey on unspecting men who see their fancy websites and give them a call.  You got to admit, they are beautiful girls with really nice websites (you rated them 8's to 10's - not me) and if you did not know about TER, you would not know they are ripoffs.  

To prove this, they must be making really good money to be able to afford advertising on every escort website out there that will allow them.

I personally think they hurt our business by making gentlemen very skeptical and thereby not seeing as many "new" girls as they would like.  How many times have I heard ya'll say "Take one for the team"

OK - I've rambled on long enough - It's just that Austin and her friend get so much attention from everyone on these boards.  Next time, how about announcing to everyone when a girl gets a really good review so others will most definitely see it, others will see her, they will have a great time, and she will make more money (and have a good time too).

Just my POV

Austin has been a known quantity (as in "rip-off"), since the days of the LAIF/Big Blue Pond. I have never seen a review by a legitimate reviewer have any physical contact, let alone a BJ, as claimed by "erecticon". If Austin did give "erecticon" a BJ for any amount of money, then I say let's take him down to the nearest 7/11 and have him buy lottery tickets for us, for he's one lucky SOB.

Like with most of the dot-com experiments that have gone dot-bomb (or, in their case, dot-con), yes I think that Austin/Bridget have indeed fallen on hard times. For a while, they were trying to make money by setting up pay "web-cams", but it looks like that's pretty much fallen through.

I agree that their business model must suck these days. Since they run a "cash-and-dash" scheme, there is a constant need for new marks. These usually are visitors to S.D., and are taken in by their websites. However, I disagree that sites like TER are not making a dent in their business. The occasional "outlier" posting here, proclaiming their sexual virtuosity shouts out one of either two possibilities. It is either Brad Pitt who got lucky, or a self-posting.  Moreover, it was Bridget who threatened to sue southcoastvip.com if she couldn't go on that site. Fortunately, Sedagive gave her the brush-off.

What can legitimate providers do about the famous B & A team? If you advertise on the same sites that they do, complain to management. Threaten to take your business elsewhere. For sites such as sd-exotics or eros-usa or cityvibe, maybe half of all listings are bogus in one way or another. If the percentage gets too high, serious hobbyists just tune out.

Just my, "2-sense".

Unfortunately, the review was removed before I could read it. However, I have read several reviews of girls that gave nothing more than a HJ and were rated an 8 on performance. I feel the same way about Austin as the rest of you. But, it is possible that some guy got a HJ and was satisfied. I don't believe that she gave a BJ though.
  Just the other week, I saw a provider based on a review here, and got burned for $$. She did not provide what was stated in the review. She even told me that she was pissed about that review and how many problems it had caused her. It was nothing more that a guy writing a false review. Nothing new there. We have seen them at one time or another. Just my piece.

The very first strip club job I ever had was a Pure Platinum in Kearny Mesa. Austin was one of the "established" girls there and doing very well.

That was in May 1992! Even if she was the minimum age for the club - 21, she'd be 31 now. How come my profile lists ME accurately as 31-35 but hers says she's 22?

Yes, she's still a pretty girl with a tight bod. But I can't believe anyone buys she's 22.

MM

She's actually 37, but she's still hot !!

Claiming to be so much younger is just another aspect of the false advertising that Austin specializes in.

Actually, all of my objections to Austin/Bridget would evaporate, if they simply advertised in the "dancer" category, rather than "escort". No one would expect any physical contact with a "dancer."

When I first strted in this hobby, I didn't have a computer. I had to take my chances with the yellow pages. I did that about 3 times before finding swing magazine. Out of the yellow pages,I only got 2 HJ's and 1 russian. The russian was from a very large girl from Australia. I have heard that there are escorts (from agencies) that will do FS, but I have never met one. Besided, I hear that they charge about $$$ above the agency fee. Too much for me, considering it's a gamble to begin with.
  I can still remember my first FS girl. I was surprised that it was offered. After her, that's all I wanted. Thank you TER!
   I agree that she should only advertise as a dancer, but I guess that's up to SDX, Eros and the others. Bummer for the poor guys that don't know any better.
