TER Profile- Yes 100%
Reviews- Yes, most current and if she has a coupe of clunkers I'll check those out
Providers Website- Yeah, but I don't go into too much reading into them. I'll look and based my thoughts on pictures, rates and physical profile. I skip the "I love to cook, I'm a movie buff and I love animals"...TMI..no need
I also google her number to see what other ads come up.
And to your: "Would you ever contact a provider prior to researching all of the following?"- Not likely
TER 100%
Personal website YES
GOOGLE search images for other adds, ABSOLUTELY
Phone number check, YES
The search engine of the photos usually can pull up photos used in other ads and limit you getting scammed, same with the phone number, also leading to OF pages and certain adult films if you know what to look for.
The search of photos can lead to of all things, Profile photos of social media accounts, which will show you they (the Ads) are false and scammers. What with all the scams and such in the hobby, it can take a few days to step outside the comfort zone with a new provider and that goes both ways.
Pretty often I may reach out to a lady to inquire about screening BEFORE I do more research, if she doesn't specify what her requirements are. There have been times that I don't like her screening requirements so I pass on her and don't waste a lot of time on more research.
I do. I look for any reference to a deposit. If that hurdle clears then I continue on.
I deal with deposits on a case by case basis. In general I don't pay them, but if a lady is well-known I don't have much hesitation.
Now that I'm thinking about it, I've actually only paid a deposit once - and it was to our very own QB. I had complete trust in her and actually paid her in full prior to our actual meeting. I had done this last year when she was supposed to visit and she cancelled a few weeks after we had a confirmed date. She refunded me within minutes. She is one lady that I trust completely.
I do several of the things mentioned..... if I can only find one ad, and it's NOT P411 I don't consider it. Also, if the lady wants to "Facetime" as her only means, or must have.... I'll avoid. Tried it once... after the FT call, she then got ALL "confused" over location, time, incall vs. outcall, etc. I proceeded to tell her after all this delay, I was too far out of Atlanta and we could try again another night. All seemed cool, as she said "okay baby".
Awoke the next morning to a few texts of her "pimp" threatening black-mail shit. Well, I followed the advice frequently given her, and ignored the threatening texts. Especially after the dumb SOB, thought the previous owner of my number was my wife.
Been many years ago, but will never provide "evidence" via FaceTime ever again!
of a classic quiz that I, and I bet many of you, saw at some point in school.
Yes on the first 2, mostly on the 3rd.
I say "mostly" WRT her site because I'm just looking for a handful of good pictures, her rates and restrictions. I really don't need to wade through 50 glam pictures of her in front of a Bugatti or in a suite at the Ritz. Nor do I need the endless drivel about her international travel, her degrees from the Sorbonne, or how she will grace me with spiritual enlightenment.
The more I read the better I can determine if I am a good match with the girl. Yes, I do a lot of reading. lol.
All Hobbyists should notice how we perform in our sessions. Just like we notice things about the Hobbyists.
