+ 5280Dane Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Has anyone noticed that there seems to be quite a few guys on Scruff that say they give massage but during the conversation they want you to book an appointment and pay a deposit through PayPal or similar payment apps? When you refuse to pay a deposit they do everything they can to get you to book the appointment and say they can’t take cash if the appointment isn’t booked. Sounds like a scam to me but wanted to hear from others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daddybear inVegas Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Happened to me. Sent a small amount to PayPal to “hold the reservation“. Guy said that Transaction didn’t go through, can I resend after he cancels the previous one. I asked him for a screenshot showing the cancellation and he sent it. Totally a fake screenshot. I fell for it and sent another $40 through PayPal. Once again he said it didn’t go through… crap, can I send it a different way? I did. He said you’re not gonna believe this, but it still didn’t go through, can you try doing it this way? I said “OK hold on. I’m not sending you another dime, I want to go ahead and just cancel. The last text I sent saying I wanted to cancel bounced back. I had already been blocked. He also insisted I change the receiver to be “friends and family“. PayPal will not dispute charges between friends and family. So all of that was a tactic. I did have a credit card linked to PayPal which said they will dispute the charge and charge it back. Watch out. These scum suckers are out there in droves. + FrankR and Penn7 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terpmaniac Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 I had a possible session with a masseur who said "send me cab fare" since he was coming to me. Not kidding. Cab fare. Who does that....nobody. I said. "Are you serious?" This smells like a scam...bye! Penn7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+ FrankR Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Heads-up! The massage scammers (“here is my booking website link”) are back on Grindr and Scruff in NYC. Buyer beware. 😟 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuscleDaddyRWC Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Yep. I got hit up the other day by one on Grindr who wanted to move the convo over to Insta. I didn't realize it was a scam and wanted to book something for next week. But this guy started getting really pushy for a deposit on PayPal now. Blocked!
