General Details
Avoid this person at all cost! They are a scammer.
I was concerned they might have been a scam from the beginning, but they claimed they had a reputation in Key West that they did not want to ruin, so I gave them a shot. I should have stuck with my gut, but I agreed with the booking fee, which was half the asked amount. They said the rest would be in cash. Once I confirmed that would be the way to settle the final bill, I sent the deposit.
After an hour, I received the location for the outcall for the next evening. I messaged to say I was on my way that night and they asked to text when I arrived. When I arrived is when everything went wrong. It was at a house, but no one was there that I could see. I texted and they asked for gift cards before they would come out. I replied saying I was told I could use cash. They came back saying earlier that day someone used fake money so they would no longer accept it. What an odd coincidence. I refused to use anything other than cash as previously agreed upon. We finally said I could use Cash App/Zelle/Venmo. I said I would if they would come out to prove they are real. They refused. I cannot confirm this person is real, or even a woman named Sophia. Likelier they are someone name Petr, which was the name I was given to whom to send the deposit. A “trusted friend’s spouse”. Yeah, right!
They claimed they would return my deposit, when I said I wouldn’t go through with the encounter, but I would never be able to book with them again. Fine! They said they’d only do it then next day, so I left the location. The rest of the night, they messaged me trying to get me to send money. More suspicious behavior. I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt for the refund.
The next day I reached out to remind about the refund. Again, they pushed real hard to try and get me to send more money for just a hour encounter, even though I had already sent almost double the amount they would have asked for an outcall visit. They asked for my cash tag when I insisted on the refund, to prove to me they did indeed care about their reputation. I provided it and they sent me a screenshot showing the exact amount of deposit I sent, but it showed pending in the screenshot. Go figure!
There was no amount for me to accept on my end. I have received cash before on Cash App. I let them know I did not receive anything and they claimed they would “figure” it out. I gave it an additional day because Cash App says pending transactions drop off after a day. The next day I reached out again. I said again that I never received my promised refund they said they’d send to secure their “reputation”. Crickets. At that point I decided it really was a scam. Even a week later there is still no refund.
Stay away from this person. Do not trust them. They will only rob you.
