Yes, Yes, I know this site is for Punters looking for WGs but we also consider SA and SB here, and although there have been a few mentions of illicitencounters.com on this illustrious forum, not a lot of detail. So, purely in the interests of research and to assist my fellow punters in evaluating whether this website is pure shite or worth a visit, I volunteered myself to conduct an experiment.
For those who cannot be arsed to read my extensive report, my summary conclusion is: don't waste your time or money.
For those who have a little time to spare please read on.
I signed up to IE with a small discount for a three month trial, not having any particular expectations. An initial query to the admin, I was assured that every profile was carefully vetted and if I wanted to unsubscribe from their recurring subscription, just send an email. Which I duly did. This was their reply:
"pease (sic!) rest assured that we do our very best to determine that every profile on the site, male or female, is genuine. We do not create and populate the site with fake profiles, and myself and the rest of the customer service team work diligently to ensure that all members who sign up to the site are genuine. We've worked hard over the years to build up our reputation and we would not jeopardise this by creating fake profiles to lure anyone to the site. However, scammers are unfortunately now all too common in the realm of online dating but we do our utmost to keep our genuine members as safe as possible. When a new profile is created on the site, prior to it being approved, it is checked over by a member of the admin team. Any new females who state in their profile that they are looking for something other than what the site was intended for is removed immediately. Whereas profiles which raise any alarm bells are tagged straight away so we can monitor their behaviour on the site and if our suspicions are correct, are once again quickly removed. We also have a Report button located on every profile so if you suspect that a profile may not be genuine, please do not hesitate to click the button and we'll promptly look into their activity on the site."
What a load of bullshit! Read on.
Initial impressions were that this site was very similar to all the others - a whole bunch of automatically generated profiles, either "bots" or a warehouse full of people on minimal wage making contact or churning out fake profiles. Ho Hum, no surprise there. I duly churned out my own messages on a regular basis and I think, in truth, there might be just a very small handful of genuine women registered who are looking for a discrete affair. However...
The first sniff of interest was from a curious lady who appeared to be only interested in public school educated men. Seriously? The second, third and fourth requested my picture password and then blanked me when I asked for theirs in return. I engaged with a lady who told me that if I couldn't find the time to visit her in the evenings then I had no life. "Hallo?" this site is about discrete affairs, not rocking the boat, so how the fuck am I supposed to find an excuse for regular evening visits?
Next was a rather aggressive looking lady where we started to swap picture passwords, but I got quite ill (not from looking at her face!) and logging on a couple of days later found myself with a string of messages just containing a load of question marks and was then blocked. Next up was someone who ended up looking for £500 for a 3 hour meet in Central London. Fuck that for a game of soldiers - I'd rather use SA or or SB where at least you have some idea of what you are getting into.
Then came "Lucy" - ahhh, dear Lucy. A broken hearted 22 year old, desperate to fuck older men for fun. Working part time in a well known burger chain, Lucy invited me to her place for some "fun". I connected on WhatsApp, Telegram and was pleased with what I saw, but somehow it didn't ring true and I suspect a couple of 12 year olds having a fucking laugh stealing these profile pictures so they can prank desperate old fuckers like me.
Up next was a lovely lady who was well into being a Dom and we had a great email exchange - Goddess Danica with emails such as "Are you there Slave?", "I'm waiting for your answer, Slave", "Nice to meet you..my name is Danica but i want you address Me Goddess Danica as your respect to Me being your mistress Majesty!.." with a picture attached. Quite pretty if that really is her. Then it moved onto signing the 'contract' which to be fair was reasonably well written and might well be the thing that you agree to verbally, 'stop' words, etc. The catch? Ah well, I needed to pay £75 to seal the deal. When I claimed that I didn't have PayPal, I was asked if I could pay in BitCoin. Well versed in technology, these scammers.
The final scam before my subscription ran out was extremely well thought through. In summary (I sense you are getting bored), desperate housewife wants someone to dominate them, meet up as strangers in a hotel but is particular about the 'accessories' that will make this work. Can't (obviously) buy them herself so I have to order them from a friend (in France) who will only take bank transfers. Pretty much knew that as soon as I transferred any money the long conversation on Telegram would end and indeed it did (I really strung this one out with a low value Euro transfer as part of my research investment).
In summary, and no surprises, IE is just like ever other site and works on the principle that little brain will take over from main brain and lead you to believe that there are hundreds of women out there, desperate to change their humdrum, boring sex life for an illicit encounter but at the end of the day, it's all bollocks. An hour with one of my favourite, reliable, WGs invested instead in order to report back to you, my fellow punters.
Secret Benefits - here I come! (At least there seems to be some partial success for the investment)
