Author Topic: May we upload WhatsApp photos, if linked to a SP's advertized 'business' mobile?  (Read 2453 times)

Online tantraman

Hi Head1, Admins & Mods :hi:

Apologies if this has been answered before, but I can't find anything via Search.

Often an SP's advertized 'business' mobile number links to a WhatsApp profile. That profile is often illustrated by a photo. To date, I've presumed we can upload those photos, as they are directly linked to the 'business' mobile (not a personal number).

Is this the case if the WhatsApp photo is a face shot, whereas face shots may not otherwise be online (on AW or Vivastreet, etc)? I think this is fair game, but just wanted to check.

Many thanks,

:drinks:

Rule 22 includes -

22 Privacy of service providers
It is generally not allowed to post personal info of service providers, such as real names and personal social networking profiles. Phone numbers may be posted in full(If the number is anywhere online on an advert,personal numbers not allowed) . Hotels may be named but not room numbers
 General description of in-call locations is acceptable, but not specific house numbers and/or street names. Modeling, porn, and media-related work are acceptable to be posted, even if it includes their real names as they actively sought publicity / higher-profile.


So I guess the question is how is her WhatsApp linked to her advertised business model  :unknown:
If she is making a link between the 2 then it appears to be OK but if she is stupidly using the same phone for whoring as her own private social media then I guess it isn't

BR has basically covered this.

IMHO it is a grey area.... if it is her Escorting Number and the profile pic has been put there for punters to see, then posting that photo would be allowed.

However, I quite often find that the number quoted on a lot of profiles are their own, cos when you bring up the same number in your whatsapp chat, you can see private photos of her which she would not have posted on AW or in her profile, if she had jnown that punters can see this pic without her knowledge.

Will get Admin to look at this, in case they wish to amend/edit the rule for WhatsApp pics.

I am suprised how slack some WhatsApp users are.
Not just “sex Workers” but I have a few UKP members numbers from gangbangs.

Seriously check what’s on your profiles, and think before you start outing WG face pics on here.

From my experience, you can put a new sim into an old phone (lets say you upgrade and want to use the old one as a work phone) and it will automatically still use the OLD NUMBER as the whatsapp number rather than the new one unless you manually change it (this is assuming you just do a straight swap on sim cards and not a factory reset). When you look on whatsapp you don't see your own photo unless you go onto your own settings, so it would be easy to assume it was blank unless you check. Basically it's a case of is the pic there deliberately? Or is the pic there because the girl isn't tech savvy?

This is the reason I have a pic of my dog on all my whatsapps.

Edited to add - I'm talking shit. If she has a new work number that is what you will have and it would have to be registered on whatsapp to use it. If she uses her old 'real' number for a work number, the above would be the case.

I've had the same experience with a wg's number showing up in Whatsapp with a face pic, which I don't think was intended. The Whatsapp profile was still there for several months after she retired, which supports my theory that it was unintended.

As advertised phone numbers are OK to post here, that should be enough - if any of us punters save it in our phone contacts, it will show up in Whatsapp (if we have it installed) and we will see the photo. No need to post the photos themselves.

You set your own WhatsApp photo for your account that is attributed to your profile and phone number so the WG would have chosen to reveal her face in her profile for the number registered.  She'd have to be pretty dumb yet tech savvy to swap her "real life" WhatsApp account to be her punting one.  Most girls have 2+ phones with different WhatsApp/snapchat/wechat accounts.

IF the number she's trading under is the number you use to WhatsApp her then that profile pic should be fair game.  As conversations are "private" you probably shouldn't post any pics sent via that number to you.  IF however she's posting to a WhatsApp group then those pics may be fair game - Admin, your call.  That said, if you break her "trust" then she may well post any pics of you that you've exchanged by any number you've given her.

IF she gave you an unpublished number then that's NOT fair game.   That goes for any special pics she sends to "you" via the "private" number.

Offline LLPunting

Update to the rules.

That just adds in chat/messaging platforms as part of the consideration.  IF the account is attributed to the trading phone number then it's all business identity so the profile pic is public domain.

The thing to be possibly careful of is if you can personalise the picture that appears against a person's chat profile and she's sent you (or you've taken) a "private" pic.  That mistake would be a "violation" of privacy.  You used to be able to do that in WhatsApp fairly easily, whether from messages you've exchanged or from pics on your phone.

So you're saying that it's an unqualified restriction on ALL messaging apps attributed to advertised SP phone numbers? 

Well we can still post the numbers and punters can check the profiles themselves.

Seems a bit strange to me, they publish their professional number on AW but you can’t link their photos from WhatsApp, even if they advertise their availability on there like Jasmine??  is that the same for WeChat, or where they link their KIK? Snapchat, tinder or twitter?

No photos from message providers like WhatsApp so this would include, for example, WeChat.

No photos from personal social networking profiles.

Still a bit confusing as I have met many SPs on WeChat they do advertise on there once you connect.

Bit like on WhatsApp, I get sent regular pictures from rotational parlours of their new girls, they also show the girls on AW and Vivastreet, so quite a grey area

Blame the idiots who would be quite happy to post private pictures they'd been sent for them only, like they post private Facebook pages. Pics on AW and VS etc are in the public domain, you have to have the phone number for WhatsApp, no phone number no photos. 

I, and I would think many others, have been sent photos and sometimes vids after contacting an escort, these are not meant to be published online, yet there are those who would.

You may find the outcome a bit confusing but the rule itself isn't.

Those who run the site have considered the matter and decided that photos from the likes of WhatsApp and WeChat aren't to be published on the forum.

Which makes the ban on phone attributed chat profile pics (and streams/moments/etc.) contrarian.

Those who run the site have decided where to draw the line.

I'm not privy to the decision making process but maybe it was the prudent option to ban the posting of images from the likes of WhatsApp and WeChat. These may be purely for business, purely personal or a mixture of both. It would be a nightmare if those running the site had to try and work out what type of account a photo had come from.

Social networking profiles are more obviously either personal or business.

I know of three girls who use their personal phone number for conducting business, the first one doesn't have her number displayed anywhere, the second one has her number displayed on AW certain times of the week. Neither of them have a picture of their own on their whatsapp. The third girl doesn't display her number anywhere but does have her own photo on her whatsapp.

These are all their personal numbers and those WhatsApp are their personal accounts even if they are used for business sometimes, and the line has to be drawn somewhere....especially if the number was never publicly available.

I was making the distinction between the profile pic available to anyone who saves the number and registers with the relevant chat app vis-a-vis the pics sent to the individuals once "private" chatting is entered into.  Fair 'nuff if the management don't want to risk the idiots who will post indescriminately, although wouldn't they anyway?   Hey ho.

Completely agree with you. There are some real twats out there who don't understand or value discretion. It's only fair for an escort to have a private life and intruding on that is not on. Even if the area is grey, then we should all err on the side of caution.

I personally don't think modelling photos should be allowed either, as it's quite possible for an escort to have a completely separate "normal" life and be a model (be it nude or otherwise) but not want to be outed as an escort. They are entitled to their separate private lives, same as us punters are entitled to be anonymous.

Thing is if you can search the Web for their phone nunber and it returns public domain pics and info then that's on her.
If we don't duplicate that info on UKP can we direct Punters to search for it and make observations about it?

Why do people need to be spoon fed information? If you can search for an escort's phone number then so can I.  if you can find her WhatsApp so can I. Why is there a need to post WhatsApp photos.

Every profile on AW is an escort advertising as such, I would guess that the vast majority of people on WhatsApp are private individuals, whether or not they escort as well.

Sorry guys.
We search on published phone numbers to check if they're associated with other SPs/groups which have a reputation, good or bad.  If anything else pops up in that search of relevance are you saying we just ignore it?
We might save sublished phone numbers for future contact, all the apps pretty much check who's in your contacts and surfaces any already registered in their service e.g. WhatsApp.  We aren't snooping, the service is telling us if these individuals are already registered.
I'm not saying we're having to dig at all it's there on the first page of search results or in your apps contact list.

Doesn't answer my question, why do WhatsApp pictures need to be posted if by having the phone number you can see them anyway. Bearing in mind you need the phone number in the first place.

Also who is going to check if the pictures are private or not. The safest thing is not to allow any. You can't post private facebook pages why should WhatsApp be different.

Some punters don't use smartphones; No WhatsApp or other chat apps.

If we're going to worry about where any photo entered the public domain then we'd have to prevent punters from posting pics from their collections because we wouldn't be able to say whether she ever posted it publicly.  What about pics an SP withdraws from her profile/gallery, she may well no longer want certain pics in circulation, so if we're respecting her privacy in one aspect should we not do so in all and not post any retrospectives? 

WhatsApp has both public and private aspects just like Facebook just like all chat and social platforms.

This makes me ask a question. You know the verification pic thread? Well most of those pics are only there because the person uploading them managed to get them during the short window between a verification pic being approved and verified on AW and the girl subsequently choosing to disable public viewing for them. Now for that short window it was public information but I'm not sure if AW allows the girls an option to never have the verification pic be displayed from the get go, in which case the girls don't have a choice whether their face pic goes public or not for that short window. This is pure speculation on my behalf as I don't really know how AW works on the SP end, but I'm wondering if it's kosher to upload a pic that was taken for AW verification purpose and chosen to be hidden the moment the girl had the option to hide it and make it not public. I know a girl who knows her verification pic is on this website and she doesn't understand how it ended up there as she said she chose to hide the verification pic.

The veri pic thread(s) is exceptionally useful and more often than not shows what the girl actually looks like vs her main profile / heavily photo shopped  or stolen pics.
Many a time i've not punted a girl based on her veri pic and personally I salute those who take the time and effort to post them  :drinks:

Worth mentioning (again) this is a punters site for the benefit of punters so I don't see why there is now an issue with the veri threads being questioned  :unknown:

When I set my profile up on AW, you could click for the verification pic to not be shown publicly from the word go, but you needed to go into the settings and change it because the default was for it to be public. As far as I'm aware, noone has seen my verification pic, not that it's awful because Im savvy enough to put my makeup on before I take any picture but my hair is a shocking orange copper in it  :D.

Some girls got caught out though because AW had a blip a couple of years ago and accidentally reset a whole load of profiles verification pics to public, for SPs who had hidden them.

In addition, when a SP "hides" her profile whilst she is not working, upon returning back to work, AW automatically showed her Verif Pic. Quite a few girls have also been caught out by this. I'm not sure if this has now been fixed by AW.

What do you mean by hiding? Whenever I've deactivated mine and then reactivated it, that's never happened to me.

I can't recall the exact nature of how they profile was hibernated and then was turned back on again. At the point of turning the profile back on, the AW Verif Pic was automatically displayed, even though they had opted to have it hidden. Quite a few WG's have been caught out by it, and their pic was picked up on this forum. As mentionted, I am not sure if AW have now fixed this.
