Typical

So to be clear: “Manhattanhotboy” in the initial post is also known as “Oliver” when he works at something called 27Spa. We like “Oliver” (aka Manhattanhotboy), and the photos of Manhattanhotboy (aka Oliver when at 27Spa) are accurate, but we don’t like the place called 27Spa because it’s “dingy”. So in sum, go see “Manhattanhotboy” because he is cute in a “white bro” sort of way (just like the photos for the “Manhattanhotboy” suggest) at his private location or see him at your home or hotel, and because he is a nice guy and gives a B+ (or is it a B-) massage. Correct?

I’ve seen John 3-4 times and I don’t recall him using a theragun on me. If he has it’s been an inconsequential amount of time. In any case, he is very good with a great setup at his place. He is on the higher end of going rates, but it is still an acceptable value proposition from my perspective. A/A+ skills.

Don’t give money to or accept candy from strangers.

When you say not worth it do you mean you have seen him and the experience isn’t worth it or was that just a general statement? He seems to have time now as his availability notice is on a lot. But I’m not filling out forms or going through hoopla for a massage appointment!

I had a very similar experience. I tried to reschedule after HE canceled for some emergency. When I reached back out, he said something like “well now you want an appointment, I thought you lost interest”. He had canceled on me! Anyway, maybe these guys get a lot of annoying messages, but a way to avoid so many inquires and messages that lead to nothing: Publish your rates. This should not be a guessing game! And tell us where you are located because that can make all the difference in whether I wish or have time to come see you. Provide customers with basic information in your ad and get fewer pointless inquiries. It’s a win-win for everyone and it’s basic common sense. What am I missing that makes this more complicated than necessary?

Again, MF allows advertisers to turn off their ads when they are not available. He will turn it back on when he resumes appointments. Makes perfect sense to me from both sides. I don’t know why every advertiser doesn’t utilize this very practical function. Perhaps they want to remain visible even though they are not working for future business generation.

Ha. Saw this guy probably more than 15 years ago using the same photos. All I remember is the encounter was weird. Very weird.

He changes his link regularly. He uses the same photos. Needless to say the photos are NOT of the guy you will meet in any way shape or form.

Well, “Milo” or “Ale” is back at it tonight scamming away! You are just lucky not to have been robbed. Not only is everything about his ad fake, including all photos (the photos having no relationship to the trickster), he is a thief. How MF allows this to continue after many warnings is beyond me.

Probably half of the massage guys in this town are “actors” of varying degrees of thespian success. Or at least they consider themselves as such. Anyway, I wonder if the person who shows up for an appointment resembles these headshot photos. Or if this is a “send a deposit” or some other scam. I’m suspicious. 🤨

And the lesson being NEVER send a deposit. Never, ever. That is a scam 100% of the time. And, as I learned again recently the hard way, if the guy who opens the door isn’t the same as the photos, RUN. He’s about to rob you. Go with known quantities. And if it seems too good to be true, IT IS. Repeat after me: No deposits. Ever. Always a scam. Always.

Jason has the touch, so to speak. He may not be a trained therapist, but he has natural intuition and ability. He puts in real effort. No shorting on time. No upsells (at least in my experience). Sexy AF. Super nice. Effective. He likes doing the job! Woof!

I generally agree with this assessment. I saw him a couple of times a few years ago when his rates were more down to earth. Maybe 200 British Pounds. He’s a nice guy. His massage is strong and above average. His body is (was) phenomenal. It was fun. Lots of fun. (No real sex, though) That all said, I wouldn’t pay his current rates for anyone. Now, if money is, as they say, no object, then sure! But if you are questioning the expense then probably shouldn’t do it. It’s not life changing, LOL. Don’t over spend for the experience if money IS an object.

I guess I’ll say it one more time, then my work here is done. This person in the photos does not exist, at least not as a masseur in NYC. The ad is fake. You will never meet the person in the photos because he does not exist. If you answer the ad you will meet someone else not even remotely like the photos and he will attempt to rob you. If being robbed while getting a 20 minute “massage” from someone who looks nothing like the photos in the ad to which you respond is a fantasy, go for it! The reason why this ad comes and goes and the phone number change daily is because the advertiser doesn’t want to be caught by the law.

It sad that Masseurfinder willingly allows itself to be used by obvious scams. This ad is fake. The photos are fake. The phone number changes daily. These are clear red flags. The activity behind the ad is criminal. Someone could get hurt. I have no idea how to contact the website operators. But when ads go up and down and phone numbers change frequently, the site is on constructive notice that something is wrong.

He’s relentless and determined! I’m closing my thoughts out on this fellow now by suggesting googling all phone numbers of unknown service providers before hand. Never let your wallet out of sight. And when the photos are fake, run (can’t believe I didn’t). Be very wary of the unknowns. It’s apparently way too easy to establish scam accounts on Masseurfinder. It can be dangerous.

Let me be more clear here. The unrelated photos are pretty much beside the point. The person will rob you or attempt to rob you. He is using fake photos because he is engaged in criminal activity. There is no “bargain” to be had.

He uses a burner phone as he is engaged in criminal activity.

He takes the ad down regularly because he is literally one step ahead of the law.

No, that’s not true. 99% of the time the person who shows up is the person in the photos. It may be their best photos, but it is actually the person. This guy has no relationship to the photos whatsoever. None. Absolutely none. And there are bigger problems. Let’s just say the NYPD are involved.

It’s alarming that masseurfinder allows this ad to continue. The photos are completely unrelated to the person you will encounter. And the person you will encounter is a total scam. This is a fake ad that fronts for criminal activity.

Your writing is unusual. It is my opinion.

This guy has been around for a long time in multiple cities with bad feedback. That said, there are all kinds of new advertisers in NYC, probably attracted by new inflated market rates, who are abysmal. Shockingly so. Stick with known quantities.

Agree. And wearing sunglasses in almost all of them. Let’s reasonably surmise that’s not accidental. Make of it what you wish.

I believe so. It was a lovely apartment. It was all so nice.
