Yes but how many users know that and would even figure it out how to do it? 

Agree.  There's a learning curve.

But...  If you have a lot to protect, you go to those lengths.  It's as easy as a YouTube tutorial.

Guys in hiding need to stop thinking solely with their dicks.  It's how they get caught.

BAD ADVICE

 

when a potential client contacts me using a fake burner type # its likely due to his reputation via mr number 

I didn’t know what Mr Number was until a year after being on this site - and 5-6 years after seeing providers regularly. In my case using a burner had nothing to do with my reputation on MrN. And I assume many others aren’t focused on that logic either.  

A burner number isn’t fake - it just can’t be traced through regular background checks (until it can - the more someone uses it info builds up). If what you’re really saying is you need someone’s name, ability to run background checks on them etc - and you need their “real” number for that, to build up leverage, that’s a different matter. 

My Mr Number reputation is stellar. It says I’m sweet but get annoyed if kept waiting. Someone tried leaving something nasty and I got it removed because a provider alerted me while we were meeting - wasn’t a problem for him. 

Here’s more advice for clients: I’ve rarely met a provider who had a problem with my burner number. If they ever did I would Move on and they would lose my business. Because in my experience the odds are 90% it’s not a problem.

I'm a rentmasseur/masseurfinder client, not an escort client.  I hire for beautiful sensual work, not "full service."  But I do "due diligence" before I hire, but I am NOT a gameplayer.  I hire, I pay well, and to many guys I am regarded as a truly good client relationship and I see them again and again.  But I've recently become aware that there are messages out there about me that I'm a timewaster, even that I stand people up, which I would NEVER EVER do.  I have NEVER done this.  And if I have to cancel because my travel changes, I do so at least 24-48 hours ahead.  Is there any way I can encourage a provider who finds these things about me "on an app we use" to give me a chance?  I'm honestly a good guy.  Many thanks.

Random, but how do you get User Comments to show up in Mr. Number? If there’s nothing, does that mean that no comments were added? I’m on a 3 day free trial, so should be having all features within the app. 😅

I use other methods that I won’t share here, but also Mr Number. I take it all with a grain of salt. It’s not 100% accurate. Lots of the entries are from immature providers leaving comments for illegitimate reasons and I can usually tell pretty easily by the tone and language.

I’ve run some experiments intentionally booking known problem clients just to see if the comments hold any water. The majority of comments are accurate. Some are not. I called a client out on his comments a while ago. He protested and showed me his texts with the providers that were clearly the provider being the problem. The client showed up and was not a problem at all. All was well.

There is no perfect system. You have bad actors on both sides of hiring. Most clients are just fine. If you treat providers with respect, you have little reason to worry about getting comments. We use the systems available, imperfect though they may be. 

Providers use Mr Number to help keep one another safe and to help steer us away from known problem clients. Not just “annoying” clients. Plenty of those out there and we deal with them every day. Those are not a legit reason to post damaging comments. When a client is seriously impacting my business or my own person in a negative way, I feel the need to share it.

I never add a comment because a client simply decided not to book with me. That’s asinine. I only do it in the following cases:

1) No-show with zero contact, no cancellation attempt, no apology, no excuse, no attempt to reschedule. Nothing but crickets for hours or even days later after multiple attempts to reach the client. (most common)

2) Abusive or harassing behavior, stalking (uncommon).

3) Violent and/or threatening client (uncommon).

4) Client intentionally attempting to receive services and not pay (rare).

5) Mental illness (rare). And I don’t mean disabilities. I mean someone who is seriously unstable, like they could be a harm to himself or others, unable to consent, or some other serious issue. Not generally “weird” people, that’s not fair. I get plenty of those. I mean something really serious.

6) Spam, fraud (unbelievably common). “Will you massage my entire boys sports team in one day?” lol so many weird schemes out there from Nigerian royalty asking for gift cards to female porn stars requesting massages and access to my payment information before receiving services. You name it, it’s out there, and it’s constant. Every. Damn. Day. If you advertise anywhere, you’re a target for spam and fraud.

7) Other extreme circumstances that I can’t think of off the top of my head.

Can I take option 6. I would do it for free ha.

That type of scheme works like this: the fraudster gets you interested in a high volume of work $$$ with people most masseurs would (presumably) prefer to work on more than your average client i.e. younger, attractive, in-shape, athletes, models, actors, you name it. Sometimes they assume women would be more enticing to me, which indicates sloppy or zero research on their part. Then the fraudster presses to pay up front using some digital method. After providing them the payment information, they attempt to steal your personal and financial information, your money, or both. The boys sports team never shows up, and the fraudster moves on to the next victim.

Stuff that seems off, too good to be true, odd, or unusual I steer clear of. It’s almost always a scam. Any client asking to pay ahead via digital means is an instant no-go, highly likely to be fraudulent activity.

When I was actually engaging the sports team guy, I asked if the “boys” he mentioned were underage, or all over 18. I can’t knowingly serve minors. He was flustered by the question. Clearly he didn’t expect anyone to have this concern. That made it so obvious what was going on that I ended the conversation and reported the scam.

Interesting. The business I am in I see all types of scams via email, calls, etc. 

 

I was mainly joking. Like the idea of working on a whole team of Rowers or swimmers sounds exciting ha. I mean I know logistically one person would be exhausted after the 3rd person anyway.

I have exactly this situation too. I’ve not looked, but have been told that there are those on mr N that call me a “time waster” or “game player” which is ludicrous. I don’t hire everyone I reach out to ask about rates and compatibility so I guess that means I’m a time waster?  I have never ever ghosted someone (tho others have ghosted me) and have several regulars. I have even donated a self-volunteered “cancellation fee” when life or illness has forced me to cancel under 24 hrs before the appt time. 
But anyway, I don’t think there’s a good way to avoid the bad comments on mr N. I hope some of my regulars are also saying nice things about me, but who knows??

You can’t avoid what other people may say. You have regulars, so clearly, it hasn’t been an issue—and that says a lot about you. This is the last thing you should worry about.

Guys, just this week I had a hot encounter with a new provider who told me I had a bad report from 2021. I know exactly who it was: a very emotionally unstrung provider in Portland at the time. We had a great chat, I agreed to his two-hour rate, and made hotel reservations. The morning of he texted me and said he’d require more. I told him that we I had already agreed to his fee and wasn’t going to play that game. He threatened to report me to his friends and I just wrote it off as a bizarre experience. I never heard that I was on the list until the new provider showed me his phone. It wasn’t too damning, but it was inaccurate. The new guy wrote me a positive review on the app before he left, so it’s evened out. So, yes, there is a resource that exists but which appears to be seldom used since this was the first time I’d heard of my entry in almost 4 years.

There’s nothing you could have done, and fortunately, it worked out. 

Unfortunately, there’s not much we can do about reviews. Clients can leave bogus feedback, just as providers can post unfair reviews on platforms like Mr. Number. At the end of the day, these should just serve as a baseline. Decisions are best made through personal interactions, mutual diligence, and gut instincts.

[+ nycman]

It’s very easy to get bullshit removed from Mr. Number. The platform doesn’t want trouble and they’re well aware people are abusing it. As a side note, crappy escorts are really only hurting their fellow escorts when they post bogus reviews on Mr. Number. But as I said before, trying to police a professional group that can’t even agree on what 6 inches is, would be a fool’s errand. 

Monitor the things people write about you on Mr. Number and get the bogus items removed. Think of it the same way you do your credit score. If you’re an upstanding citizen, you generally don’t have much to worry about.

Yup. I traced down the dates, and found providers called me a "fake" simply because I passed on hiring them.

Someone at CoM also added a negative remark,  because he used language and characteristics that I only saw in this forum, and not if we spoke or met.

Either way, since it's a personal number, Mr. Number removed all comments within 12 hours of me reporting it. EDIT I'm a subscriber to Mr Number,  which makes it easy.

Can you tell me how to get comments removed on mr number?

Contact them and tell them you're a private individual, not a company, and that you find the comments slanderous.

Thank you. I did do that. When i submitted the forum it took me to the broken link. 

 

[whatdoidowiththisagain]

do they only report bad stuff? i just started the hobby and texted a few folks i was about to book with one but he wanted a deposit. I was not comfortable having my info on a sex worker's account.  Another one was super slow in returning my text and so I moved on and booked with one  this week and another this weekend. told him sorry I already booked with someone else. Now I see a comment on my number "waste of time" 😑wtf not sure who but it was probably one of those two. who I didn't book. Luckily the two I did book totally my type. 

 

[whatdoidowiththisagain]

i feel like some providers are too bitchy. I see some RM postings saying "if we don't book by the xth message i'm blocking you" etc. They need to remember this activity is very nerve wracking for new folks we don't start off knowing everything.

this is a customer service operation and act accordingly, e.g. not post unwarranted bitchy posts about clients based upon one encounter. These providers are majoring in the minors.  Save Mr. Number for the clients who rip them off, assault them, try to drug them, etc.

Oops. Thanks. My bad. LOL. 🤪

I think hermenteutical has to do with intense study and interpretation of the principles and processes of farts, starting with the Ur-text: "Beans, beans, the musical fruit., The more you eat, the more you toot."
