Scam Alert

Perhaps its a previously discussed "Scam", but it happened to me recently so I thought I would share. I made an appointment with a visiting poster on RMass. I arrived at the hotel and once in the lobby he informed me that he does not take cash only Paypal or GiftCards. I thought about it but agreed. He sent me his info and told me to pay and he would come get me. I refused without seeing him and said that he could come down and we could discuss it. He again advised me to pay. I left. I have little doubt that this was a scam and he was probably not even in Chicago. Maybe this is an old move and is obvious, but I thought I would post as a reminder. Be careful.

Never EVER fall for the gift card bit. It is ALWAYS a scam.

[BeefyDude]

Post the link of this scammer

[NeedUToKneadMe]

Yes. Post the link!

I don’t understand the “I don’t accept cash” comment. That’s ridiculous, if anything a provider would want cash over anything else.

 

I had one masseur ask for a deposit so that he would know I was serious. He provided me his account information. I said no thanks and blocked him. Not sure why anyone would deposit any cash without even verifying the person.

Thanks for the link. I had messaged him earlier in the week but something felt off.

Definite scam. Cash is king. Plus his RMass profile shows he is currently in three cities at same time, all shown as Sept 14 - Oct 14: Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Chicago.

And he just created his profile last week!!

It’s a scam. Happened to me, I talked about it i this thread:

The thing that sucks is the time wasted. It must be a script because it was exactly the same with me. He sent the info about the card when I was the hotel lobby and he wouldn’t come down to talk until it was done. He also wouldn’t take cash. Scam.

there is another "gift card only" https://rentmasseur.com/AlexJohns i sent a message to see what happens.

That's definitely an actor (John Halbach) being used for pics

[instudiocity]

”A parlay, accumulator, combo bet or multi is a single bet that links together two or more individual wagers and is dependent on all of those wagers winning together. The benefit of the parlay is that there are much higher payoffs than placing each individual bet separately, since the difficulty of hitting all of them is much higher. If any of the bets in the parlay lose, the entire parlay loses. If any of the plays in the parlay ties, or "pushes", the parlay reverts to a lower number of teams with the odds reducing accordingly.”

 

irony of ironies...

He takes Amazon gift card and PayPal, per his reply.

That guy couldn’t even get his pictures straight, it’s two different guys!

 

So there is an obvious pattern here. They/him will advertise in 3-4 different cities at the same time. The post are usually up a day or two and that one doesn’t even have a phone number. Can’t remember if the others had them or not. Let’s keep calling them out here.

Crazy pic-stealing scammers!

[Wanderoz]

Scamorama everywhere.

That’s why we look out for each other & call out &!post the scammers in this great forum.

I think a masseur ad requires a copy of i.d. w/photo. I am curious how they get around it.

[jcarper]

On RM they get around it by using the "free month," which doesn't require payment+ID. Once the "free month" is up they just create a new account. Legit masseurs, after the free month on RM, must show ID and pay either $19 or $39.
