I am going out of town next week to upstate NY and wanted to check out what providers were in the area. I went to a popular website which I can't name here that also has reviews on it and my small head selected a provider immediately.  

But she had no reviews on here. My small head refused to quite because she was that hot so I dug deeper by starting with a search of her phone number. It looked legit and even had the name from her profile associated with it.  

The problems started when I noticed that she had no rates posted on her profile, which I guess is fine as maybe she wants to keep them fluid, but when I did a reverse image search, two of the pics came back belonging to an instagram model who is not a provider as far as I can tell. Plus, this instagram model looked Filipino or Vietnamese and this provider was Caucasian as per her profile (the two pics had the face cropped).

I am not going to book this girl due to lack of reviews here (as I have read here...), but I just wanted to know if this is a common thing providers will do to get clients. Find a woman with similar build and appearance and just use her pics mixed with some real ones? I noticed also that some reviewers say flat out "not the girl in the pics but still hot" and TER allows one of the fields in the review to even say this.

Oh, gosh!  So many red flags!  Stay safe!

It is very common for a provider to use fake pics. There are multiple categories these fall under. I have found, usually they are still an escort.

 
One category is what you ask specifically. There are providers that look to use pics that they at least feel somewhat resembles them. I actually had a booker who had a stable of European ladies. She did this for every last one of them. None of the pics were the actual escorts. But all of them were in the same ballpark. The ladies were attractive. But the pics were drop dead gorgeous model types. The actual ladies were usually more homely or girl next door types.

 
Another category is what I call same race bait. This one is popular with Asian agencies or escorts. The pictures look nothing like the provider. You likely get the same hair color. Often, pics are much younger. But the number of clients that literally have no clue because their sensors are broken when it comes to some other ethnic groups is wild. Guys will literally say they are the ladies in the pictures in their reviews. But they clearly are not.

 
Then there are some that anyone can tell are not them. The attempt at looking like the pics isn’t even made. These are just bait and switches. They are banking on you being fooled and not having the balls to walk away when you see them.

 
The last category are not escorts. These can be various things. They are sometimes promotions for a dating/boning site or Onlyfans. They could also be a flat out scam. Big red flag is if they ask for a deposit. There are some that could be a mugging setup. There are others that will try to steal your identity. There’s probably more scams than I can even begin to describe.

 
Be safe out there!

It happens. If you look 👀 many have on their profiles photos not accurate. I never understood why anyone would use false photos. As a professional escort you should always invest in yourself & have accurate photos that represent you at this time.

And this being an unregulated, illegal one, means that the consumer (i.e. the client) has typically more to do in terms of research than any civie service/product. There are so many tools at our disposal for that research and you used them well in this case. This is a great thread for new people to this realm as they can see how one of the ways deception can occur.

To answer your question, I guess it depends on how you define "common." If you talking about SWs at large and in general, yes, sadly it's a rather common practice. But if you are talking about women that use TER and are reviewed here, I would say it's mostly uncommon.  
.
But that is my experience and others may have different ones. Guys who often TOFTT will run across what you are saying routinely but most of them have the knowledge and experience to avoid the charlatans. I am not part of that group, for the most part, so my research is a bit less extensive as I am seeing easily verifiable women for the most part.

It is marketing. Just like the big Mac is not going to look anything like the marketing pic. The pics of me on my website are actually me, I do not photo shop or use AI. The funny thing is when I meet a new client they often tell me I look much better in person than in my pics. I think I look the same. We are so accustomed to seeing an image of a person or item that has been doctored that when we see an authentic pic of that person or thing it is like the brain cannot even process that they are the same. Should providers do this? I don't think so. Do most providers do this? I don't think most do but there is a large percent. Guys think they are going to be with a smoking hot model but in reality she is average. Providers are counting on getting you in the room, you being horny, and you thinking with the little head and not the big one. This is also why so many providers lie about their age. I am 45 years old and I look 45 years old. I also get all the time "you look so much younger!" No, you have been with women who are 45-50 and tell you they are 37 so that is what your brain thinks a 37 year old woman looks like. Again, marketing.

This is very common among Asian agencies.

A big deal is made about provider safety and whatnot...not every client is going to appreciate arriving at the hotel (or wherever) expecting a 25 year old fitness chick with a slim-thick hourglass figure and instead gets a 35 year old former fitness chick that has since put on about 15 lbs, but it otherwise the same....(embellished example, of course...)

Reactions can vary and not all of them will just leave without another word....

Me personally, as long as she has the body that is advertised in her profile(s), I'm cool with it.

END OF MESSAGE

I'm also incredibly hot so like why bother lolol

Recently an escort was advertising using my photos she had stolen. I found out when a former client of mine posted about it on another board, although I don’t show my face, he recognized a tattoo of mine.  
Crazy thing is that she described herself as petite and slender while using my pics - I am tall and curvy.  

 
While it’s frustrating to spend money on professional photos and have some low end thief use them I guess I should be flattered - lol!
