I have reported reviews in the past that were positive reviews but I knew I had not met the person.  
Now I have a review saying I scammed someone. I never met anyone at the hotel they’re saying and I’ve never scammed anyone.  
On top of that I was out of the country most of May when the review was submitted.  

I did report this review but I don’t know how to prove it wasn’t me

Wait to heat what TER has to say they need. Though if you've reported these in the past (why would fake nice reviews be any different then fake bad reviews) I would think you'd be aware of the process.

Sorry this happened to you.

Honestly, I wouldn't sweat it too much.  Anyone looking at your reviews will hone in on it being this person's only review.  Which tells us a lot.  Best thing you can do is ask the guys you see to write reviews to bury this further.

I did a quick search of Minnesota, General, and a few other boards for posts by the Reviewer. No posts to the boards I checked.  

Please do not advise providers to just ignore fake reviews. If we want any form of integrity in our industry lying and fake information should be removed promptly. This goes for providers and clients. This just allows individuals to think it is "not a big deal" to write false information, good or bad. It is not.

All she can do is report it, and then the burden to show he is NOT lying shifts to the reviewer.  If he can produce copies of emails or text conversations showing he booked the appointment, HE will have proven that she is lying about not seeing him.  This cross-check is what keeps the review system honest.  It prevents providers from unilaterally discarding reviews that they don't like for whatever reason, yet there is remedy for them on fake reviews.

Yup, Guys are simple minded dumbasses that somehow make it thru life and I get that you've made your life mission to walk around trying to fix us.  Net was saying that guys will look beyond this bad review and in a way trying to give her some confidence that her other reviews will offset it.  Net wants her to read this and have some relief that her rep really hasn't been tarnished so she can more forward and be happy in the process.  He's trying to help solve the first problem which is how she might feel and the concerns she may have about her ability to make future income.  Net wants to see Khloe smile and think the world is OK when she reads his post.  

I can’t help but wonder what the process is like for a provider to get a review removed. I definitely don’t like the idea of fake ones staying up. I have heard some suggest the burden of proof is on them. But I had a situation 4-5 years ago where a legit review of mine was removed. I asked why and was told don’t worry you can keep your free days for the review. I was like huh? I wanted the honest review up more than the free days. I had emails and text messages to support my side too.

Report it to TER, they are pretty responsive to fake reviews. With your history of positive reviews, just remember there's always an ass out there. Stay safe.

I am aware of what I have done in the past but assume TER would believe me more when it’s a positive review I am reporting than a negative review.  

I agree with you fully. If providers ignore reviews to include the good ones soon the   “Boston Stranger “ or any designated whatever a person in good standing -only missing whitelists and P411 OKs  
I know of more than one provider who has given up trying to get rid of even good reviews.

This is not a review to get TER free days. I'm hoping the whole thing gets sorted out. Ladies shouldn't just ignore one bad review in your case. Whoever wrote it has a bone to pick with you. If it was bad scores, I could see why some might say, one review isn't going to hurt your biz.  

First, you're much more preachy than Scarlett. Second, you missed her point entirely.

There shouldn't be tolerance for fake reviews. Fake reviews are useless to the consumers and often can hurt the seller unfairly.  

I’ve never received any communication from TER about reviews I have reported in the past so I wasn’t sure what the process was. If this is true this gives me some hope that it will be removed. Aside from proving I was out of the country (which may or may not be when they claim we met) I really am not sure how I would prove this wasn’t me

I have no problem with negative reviews of people I have actually seen, but yes, calling me a thief is not a reputation I want to have otherwise I would have done what other ladies have done and change my name every other month and scam every man I see. I’ve been around many years and have never been accused of scamming someone. It’s so frustrating

I don’t check my reviews often, I was actually alerted to this review by a potential client saying “nevermind, I just read you scam men”. Some may look past it but some won’t. I’m sure many will see that review and think “better not take the chance”. Unfortunately I won’t know how many potential clients were turned off by that one review

He seems to have forgotten the old maxim: "When you find yourself in a hole, the first thing you do is stop digging."

I'm not saying ignore it.  Definitely report it and try to have it removed. But.....  I would not lose a lot of sleep over it.  Best she can do is hope it's removed and continue to get more reviews that are better.

A provider I've seen many times is well-reviewed on TER, with over 100 reviews.

Well the guy who reviewed her isn’t saying she is a he. I personally don’t want someone I’ve seen contacting me with their issues. When I have nothing to do with it.

..."Best thing you can do is ask the guys you see to write reviews to bury this further"  The only thing that makes this bad advice is using the word "Best".  Engage TER to remove it being the BEST thing to do

You'll never know but bringing it to light is a good idea.  There a lot of guys that read this and it should probably be on the local board.  As stated in my earlier post, taking the steps with TER to remove is the best action and moving on is about the only thing left to do...other than be proactive and making it public.  That said, if theres a guy out there that picked that one review and verbalized it to you, you probably didn't want to see him anyhow...sounds like an ass (or maybe the guy that dropped the review)

the reviewer and then if you don't hear back, follow up once a week and ask if there are any developments on your case.  If they say the reviewer was unresponsive, then ask them again to take it down.  

But you are the exact same height and weight as me despite being female and based on your pics, look better naked than I do!

You are completely off-base.

Impossible to be more "preachy" unless you are a gender studies professor.

Who the fuck is off base? You tell your little story that had nothing to do with the initial post.

that's some bullshit.  Sorry it happened to you, but I reckon it comes with the territory.  My guess is it was some high school kid that found us out and gets their jollies by playing "pranks".  Take the hit, drink a shot (or three), and move on with your day.  There are plenty of us mongers out here that make for wonderful clients.  Focus on the positive, and don't let the bastards get you down.

Read it and you won’t have wonder how it works anymore.  You will know.

Maybe respond only to posts you can understand?

It’s been a week since I reported the review and 3 days since I reported it a 2nd time. I haven’t heard anything from TER and the review is still up.. 😞

Sorry?  High school kids?  So, a high school kid has VIP status and knows how to write a negative review to hurt someone? Really???   How nice of you to speak for the women and tell her not to worry about it.  Of the four women who have responded on this thread, not one is in favor of a negative review.  A few of the guys just say move on....    

Sorry to hear that. Maybe soon?

His story is relevant because he is suggesting that the provider reach out to her clients to help with getting the review removed. I had a provider reach out to me because they had a bad review hit job with completely inaccurate details about her ethnicity and body. Because I had previously reviewed her, I think it helped with I contacted TER on her behalf.

But just how are any of the other clients going to be able to back up her two claims -- never saw they guy at the hotel and never scammed anyone?  

Sometimes when people are in panic/worry mode, and they are uncertain what to do, they resort to the "everything and the kitchen sink" method. Challenge is when someone tries everything under the sun to fix a problem, they have a hard time knowing what made a difference and what didn't. I agree with you (jensen), a client is unlikely to be able to help unless it's something like vouching he was with her. Just about anything else a client would say could likely be proven without the client's help.

After a few more messages to TER I did hear back from them that they had contacted the reviewer for more info. They also removed the review pending more info.  
This was 2 weeks ago and I have not heard anything else. I assume the reviewer went MIA.  
Thanks for all your help/advice! I’m grateful TER stepped in!

Congrats!

and then they don't hear from you again, how do they know that you didn't just abandon your claim of fakery?   By staying on top of it, they will come to a point where they accept that the reviewer is not going to respond, and bingo, the fake review gets taken down.  Good job.  As CKS says, persistence is the key until you get a resolution.  

Once, the review wasn't even about ME, and one moron posted fake reviews over & over b/c I wouldn't see him. It is SAD that what can also hurt is very HAPPY clients won't post at all, b/c they are afraid of a provider's schedule getting full so they Gatekeep. No one realizes how tough it can be out here, not to mention scary.

I was on hiatus and have no idea who it is. I just don’t understand why they wouldn’t email me or fill out a booking form for something that seemed to be a longer booking request. I have a record for every person that’s ever requested to see me except them so strange.

Taking away the free vip from writing reviews and 80%+ of the reviews go away.
