Here are the things I do.  

First and foremost, ask if they have reviews.  If so I check them out and look to see if the description matches how they describe themself, as well as any pictures.  Sometimes two different provides have the same name and they wind up with the same TER ID but also sometimes fakes simply point you to a legitimate provider's reviews.

I google the phone number with the word "escort"  that often returns a lot of profiles.  If the same number appears on multiple profiles with different pics they may all be represented by the same agency.  But if they all say they are independent, they you know they are fake.  

I also do a google search with text I pulled off their description for the same reason.

If the same number or text shows up with the same pictures in multiple locations for the same dates that is suspicious too, though some sites do not take expired ads down -- it increases traffic to their site.  There are also some sited that copy ad content from other sites without the provider's permission.  

Google image search used to be great at identifying profiles using pics stolen off modeling websites but google does not search on people's faces any more, probably with good reason.

"Verified" means nothing.   I reported one "verified" provider who was using an Eastern European actress's stolen pics on Adultsearch. Adultsearch took the ad down, but it was back up a week later -- "verified" again.  

What other things do you do to check out providers before scheduling?

and if there are no new books I want to read, I check out a provider for the day.  

I too Google the number and check out ads on other sites besides the one I found them on. Often different names and places for the same phone number. I then check out the TER reviews

END OF MESSAGE

I always check TER first. Rating, quantity of reviews, the reviewers seem legit (they have reviewed other ladies and ratings vary), etc…

 
Sometimes, if I have more questions, I PM those who reviewed her.

 
Occasionally, I will search Google and check if she has Twitter. But honestly, without TER reviews, it’s usually a stop. I make very few exceptions.

developed over several weeks of reading here:
1. ter reviews, at least six in the past year
2. message latest reviewer or the reviewer with many reviews and whitelists even if he is an older review
3. check for personal website (not a deal breaker but most legit girls have one) or an ad on tryst  
4. rates 500 - 1000 and screens clients, also reqiests deposits (LE will not bother charging such high rates, screening, and requesting deposits - they want you to come to them NOW so you can enjoy BBFS with the hot 22 year old blond college cheerleader for 100/hr)
5. check phone number to see if consistent across many ads and on website and more importantly here
6. reverse image search - i was told many steal photos from instagram hotties that look similar but are legit
7. social media presence with active posts - twitter, onlyfans, bluesky, etc

if she checks all of these boxes she goes on the list

Did I miss it?    You all great detectives, but did anyone suggest writing a respectful email to the provider?

We providers can understand what you're worried about, of course, and I think most of us would spend a little time being real on email.  And in fact, I prefer to get to know you a little.  If she asks for more money than on her website, or other stuff shut it down.

In addition to running photos through image searches, I run them through an AI detector to see if they have been artificially created or enhanced.

What you're saying is great if we just want to get to know you. But before we even want to consider getting to know you, we want to know things like: Are you real? Are you the same person in the pictures? Are you good at what you do? Do you do the things I like? Are there hidden upcharges? And, these are not things that we will ask a provider. We need a third party way of verifying we are not about to waste our time and money. Now, once we clear this hurdle, we may want to get to know you. But that depends on the guy, and it's not something all providers want to spend time doing.

I came across this happenstance, while perusing photos on E. I clicked on two different photos, where they both had different phone numbers in separate area codes. What are the odds that the only difference would be in their hair color?

Amelia's details:
Age:24
Ethnicity: caucasian
Hair color: red
Eye color: brown
Height: 1 m 69 cm
Weight: 50 kg
Measurements: 91bbb - 60 cm - 92 cm
Affiliation: independent

Rosa's details:
Age: 24
Ethnicity: caucasian
Hair color: brown
Eye color: brown
Height: 1 m 69 cm
Weight: 50 kg
Measurements: 91bbb - 60 cm - 92 cm
Affiliation: independent

What are the odds that two providers have the same measurements? Probably pretty high. What are the odds these are accurate? Not sure, do more digging. What are the odds these are scams? Again, not sure, do more digging.

How many different bra, panty, shoe, blouse, pants, skirt... sizes are there in the world compared to number of women that wear them? Seems like a lot of women are wearing the same sizes and that is what the measurements come from.

Need more info. SOMETIMES, people use different phone numbers for "market research" to determine which ads are generating the most replies (and the most closed sales). (It used to be a pretty standard practice.) It COULD be a scam. It COULD be a legit Provider with more than one phone number.

To take it further, most of the questions a potential client would ask are questions that providers do not want to answer. If I ask a provider "are your pics real" what kind of answer am I going to get? If they are I am pissing off the provider and if they aren't they provider will just lie. Providers are clear they don't want to answer specific questions. If I write a provider "do you do XYZ" I would get blocked. A lot of providers provide clear instructions like "only reach out when you are ready to book." Others explicitly say they will only answer booking e-mails that follow their preferred format. So, when Jenny asks if we have considered sending a respectful e-mail the answer is NO! We have been told many times to NOT DO THAT!
