Unfortunately. AS/AL are not regulated much.
I was interested in one of the "verified" providers. I always google image search the photos, and google the other contact information -- common sense checking, before making contact. Well, this provider "Susanna" was using photos from a photo shoot of an Eastern European actress from 20 years ago. So I reported it to adult search, including a link to the photoshoot, and they took the ad down. It was back up a week later.
I also frequently see "verified" providers whose description does not agree with the photos. For example, African-American, black hair, black eyes and the photo is a blue-eyed blonde.
Do they just put a "verified" tag on an ad for a fee without actually verifying anything?
Unfortunately. AS/AL are not regulated much.
Eros verified. WTF does that even mean?
We have to send in a pic of us holding our ID. At least that is what is supposed to mean. Eros is just way too expensive. For me, in the middle of no where WI, they want $246 for one month of VIP advertising. Too expensive for my blood. I have also been around since Christ was a corporal so I don't need to plunk down that kind of money for an ad to get business.
Plus I've heard so many complaints from ladies about Eros. They do t seem to have much in the way of customer service.
So that what the hell are they paying for? For $246 a month I should have the gawd damn personal cell phone # of the owner. For shits and giggles I typed in Washington, DC and they want $446 for the VIP ad for one month. LOL No thanks, what a joke. Tryst customer service is slow, but at least they respond. When I am not touring the tryst basic is free and when I am touring I go with the lowest option ad which is like $35. Has worked so far for me with great results!!
I have a friend who is a provider in NY and she's always complaining about them. She'll submit a picture and have it rejected but they'll accept it a few days later. She sticks with them because she gets a good number of bookings from her ads there.
A few women have told me tryst is really slow. Like getting their profile approved when they first sign up takes a couple months kinda slow. Once you have a profile, adding a new photo on it can take a week to process, supposedly.
Because of all that “verification” it has been alleged to me that there are no scammers on there. Grain of salt.
Eros is only good for bigger cities and areas with wealth. Since advertisement is expensive it tends to lean high end. My theory is that its relatively higher costs tends to act as a filter and that women on Eros tend to be more professional, on the ball and better at their jobs. They also tend to be more expensive. The downside is it doesn't have many options outside of major cities.
I have come to appreciate Tryst more. Providers like it because it is cheaper and even has a free option. It works very well in more suburban or remote areas. I think it is better for women who tour a bunch. It gets flooded in the big cities and is barely useable. There are just too many low quality ads clogging up the page.
The "no-scammers" claim has some weight, depending on your definition of scammer. There are definitely women on there using edited/deceptive photos, engage in upselling, who overpromise and underdeliver, and engage in bait and switch marketing. Some people would call this scamming others would say YMMV/Buyer beware. What you are unlikely to see are people setting up fake profiles to steal money or rob clients. I've heard they will kick providers off if you report them for theft or deposit scams. Rumor has it they banned a popular porn star from advertising for keeping deposits. You're definitely more safe from certain types of scams on Tryst. However there are plenty of deceptive providers on tryst trying to scam clients in one way or another.
I'm sure there are deceptive providers on any platform. That's why it's incumbent upon clients to do their homework.
You have to really do you're due diligence on AS for sure. You are right though, the verified banned means absolutely nothing. I have met some really good providers on there though.
Hell, I barely use Eros anymore. Tryst, TER, P411. Models World is okay sometimes.
Eros sucks.... At one time (before 2010?), it was almost the gold standard with nice pictures and detailed info. It's how I first found my first gal in the hobby (MikiTodo for the DC area old times)
Now, it might as well be craigslist with pics.
Hope Tryst doesn't go that way, as the quality of the pictures is good. But a few suspect ads are sneaking in...more by the day....
tryst, and other sites are being used more and more simply to advertise for only fans accounts. I have seen a few profiles were the only contact information is only fans. Of course you have to pay them to send a message on only fans.
It's also worth noting that, last I heard, it was against the only fans terms of service to use the system to arrange to meet in real life.
Yes, that IS against the rules on OF and one fairly well-known lady out of Las Vegas had her OF account terminated because too many idiots were trying to use that platform to book her.
The girls on Adult search get a decent amount of traffic. Enough so that they are able to maintain the ads for extended periods of time.
The issue is guys are not reviewing their encounters. So we are left guessing who is or isn't legit on adultsearxh. Please guys... Use TER to write reviews.
Half the guys seen g AdultSearch gals do not know this site exists.
These are also many of those who are giving up deposits and real life information.
Are also seeing gals for well below reviewed providers donations.
I've reviewed 2 VERY good ladies from AS but both were denied by TER. One was due to a provider name change / ad not matching, the other one was for something that made no sense to me. But whatever......
You can't review someone You didn't see because you figured out the ad was fake.
