Craigslist experiment

[UrbanPunter]

Based on similar threads about finding amateur wg’s on classifieds I tried a two week experiment on Craigslist. Sites used were London/Kent/Essex, as I am based close enough to all three.

Initially most adverts went through and stayed on for a day sometimes ever three with  a variety of responses. I was posting in the temporary work section. Job types included cleaners and waitresses. When they got in touch, I never moved on to sex talk until I actually engaged with how they were responding and willing to listen to instructions, such as their personal number or pictures ( for verification purposes)

In the 2 weeks I did this experiment I managed to get over ten phone numbers and spoke to 4 of them on the phone. 2 of them I’ve now met and have weekly arrangements with. These are simple car arrangements for owo and cim for less then what I would have to pay a pro. Granted I have to make small talk, drive there but it’s more relaxed and unhurried. The option to have more is there should I wish to book a hotel or something, simply not had time to do so.

The downside to all this, is the following

Adverts get flagged almost all the time
So you need to keep reposting

Too many catfish and fakes so you need to stay vigilant and bull shit proof

You need different emails / numbers / vpn to get posts listed ( yes it is a ball ach)

You will come across genuine women who have no interest in “cash for intimacy” more so then not

All said and done it’s a cheaper more organic way finding someone who is already looking for financial assistance.
Yes there is adult work and seeking but this is just another platform that can work.

It’s a game of cat and mouse with Craigslist, clearly not for everyone but just wanted to share my experience

The two I’ve met are both single mothers looking to earn some extra cash.

Thanks for the useful contribution. I haven't got time myself to do this, but I can see the attraction if you're looking to do something different. Are you willing to share how you took the jump from talking about general paid work to something more intimate?

[UrbanPunter]

Being as vague as possible to root out the fakes from the unicorns, then act ah innocent
Until the penny drops. Let them lead initially

Granted some women on there have silly expectations... one wanted me to pay her
Just to give her oral 

Another only did massage and he for £200

[Fuzzyduck]

Thanks. Interesting. Did you get the sense that the 2 successful ones only make the decision to get intimate as a result of your discussions or were they aware in advance that it was a possibility?

[tetraviper]

Interesting post, thanks for the information.

Hi OP, trust you are well. Could you please kindly share the post regarding finding amateur wg’s on classifieds?

Thank you very much.

[UrbanPunter]

The first one was aware but had encountered guys with extreme fetishes. She ( no reason to disbelieve her) said someone offered her £50 to shit on him.   

The second one was unaware, so had to word it carefully. Granted if she didn’t find me attractive or was in need of money, It may not of happened, but I guess you need to speculate in order to accumulate

[Ron89]

Very interesting tbh, I can see the appeal. Shame it’s such a ball ache.

[Fuzzyduck]

I hope she negotiated up to £80. Each to their own. Thanks for the insight.

That's if you can get past the moderators? I have been kicked off a few times (lost count how many) cos making inappropriate suggestions to some who made it clear not getting enough sex. Trying to get back on that site is a pain. If can get back on at all?
Email addresses and IP addresses are stored in their database. So even if you use a new email addy to get back on, if using a computer, phone, whatever at the same location as previous the site reconises the IP address.

A way round it is to go somewhere that has WiFi (thus a different IP addy) like library, shopping centers, anywhere can use free WiFi and sign up using an email addy not used previously.

I signed up from local library, but soon as logged in from my base, the site was asking me to sign up as a new member. Wouldn't accept the details I'd signed up with at the library.

So several genuine singles from the same house can't sign up because of their lame anti-troll methodology?  Have you tried using multiple incognito/private browser sessions?

[UrbanPunter]

I used a VPN service to change the IP address each time

It did not always work but I’ve had some success

And yes it’s a pain but worth it if you persevere

POF is too much work, lots of single moms and women with issues. But you can a shag out of it persisting.

Bumble is much better, women have to send the first message so you are on good ground from there. But the women are levels above the ones of POF, women are dtf but you need to know the PUA game to get them.

Over past year I've met and shagged at least 5 ladies from Bumble. It does take some effort and you have to be a bit less picky. The ones most quick to get you into their beds are the single mums. If you are looking for young, very fit 20 something's, not the place to go

[daddy919]

I've also tried craigslist and after weeks of trying for a weird fetish in the 'job', 'community' and 'services' section i've had 3 responses. One was a Thai girl who wanted to treat me as a god, telling me how men are superior etc  . Another was an American but looked  . Still, I got her number when i'm feeling depraved enough and a size 14-16 Indian who was facially pretty and who I met in at a hotel. She kept calling me bro, didn't really do anything as discussed then once we were done she fucked off.

I'm actually on there now and came across this. Anyone's had the pleasure?

I really can’t see the point of this.

If you want an escort look on adult work or use an agency.  If you want a bit more join a dating site.

What’s the point of advertising for a fake job in the hope a response might want to shag you.  Just use a reverse booking on adult work, write in any fetish you wish

I see your point and I haven't got the time (nor inclination) to do this kind of punting myself but I can imagine it's like fishing (I don't do that either). It's as much about the process leading up to the catch as the catch itself. I would see it as a bit of fun to break up the routine of regular punting.

In the 2 weeks I did this experiment I managed to get over ten phone numbers and spoke to 4 of them on the phone. 2 of them I’ve now met and have weekly arrangements with.

From my pov weekly arrangements with 2 chiks would basically tie me up and take me out of circulation , i woudnt want any arrangements with anyone , the lack of arrangements is what i want.
These 2 must be absorbing your punting budget and your free time and sexual energy. What happens now are you out the game or looking for more.
Personally i think its a great method if you could just fuck them once with no strings or expectations or weekly arrangements , just ring them up if you feel like it or not ring them if you dont feel like it.
Plus i woudnt want to let any girl feel like theres a longterm arrangement if my intention really was just to fuck her once and then blank her.
So its great if it works for you but personally i see complications.

Hadn’t thought of it like that.  It’s not for me so I’ll just wish the OP best in his endeavours

[pepsicolaboy]

I think it depends how the gent is looking at it. You can be a relative 'good catch' on a dating site and still waste a tonne of time on there as the online dating apps are so heavily weighted in favour of women for a variety of reasons. So the effort to reward is low - even for the 'upper demographic' of men.

Translating that effort to reward to Craigslist or some other strategy for meeting women for sex (paid or otherwise) is down to the individual to analyse.

I know a lot of guys who spend a lot of time on dead leads on the various dating platform, or a lot of time on each conversion for women (be it a date, full sex or otherwise)

 

[LLPunting]

complete waste of time 

Option 1:
Spend 2 weeks on CL to find 2 regulars for cheap sex and not having to shell out for any of the other dead-ends, just a bit of time.  Girls are possibly not regular SPs so less (ab)used, jaded and perhaps more genuinely up for fucking.  No need to review on UKP so no chance of the girls being fucked over by cunts leeching off UKP.  Risk of EAS and possibly converting into no cost FB.  Girl  may turn pro and you no longer want to pay what she's asking.

Option "Just being a Finn5555"
Regular punting, waste time and money on many girls over weeks of time to find 2 regular girls or just keep fucking strange of variable quality and performance that cost 60+ for 30 or 100+ for 1 hr (i.e. more than you have to pay the CL girls).  Waste time reading reviews and following leads from UKP, possibly do the stand-up thing and write some reviews.  Risk of EAS and still having to pay, less likely to become no cost FB as she's still taking up to 10 paying dicks a day.  SP gets more and more popular and ups her rates beyond what you can afford.

Smart money isn't with option 2.

So aside from you seemingly want to have a go a finn could you basically rename the "Just being a Finn5555" option the "punter" option, as applicable to most forum members.
And if you think option 1 is the smarter option are you going to do it.

[Fuzzyduck]

Already have and it's an active alt thread of my punting endeavours.  CL has been discussed along with alt strategies using other sites for the past few years.  Success has been enjoyed by a number of luminaries from here, no doubt a significant number of others are also trying it given the number of dodgy ads posted.  Some are smarter than others.  Others seem to be wilfully sabotaging other punters' efforts, may their dicks rot in very painful and visible ways.

[stampjones]

I dont think you overestimate the novelty of this approach - its very common. Just check the existing temp job ads to see how many others are doing it lol. Its also the best way to get an idea of how to frame adverts. In my experience the girls who reply know exactly what the story is in the main. Success tends to go in waves I find but in general CL and SA have been my preferred method of getting paid (and occasionally unpaid) sex for 2 or 3 years now. As LLP mentions there are quite a few threads giving advice on how to maximise your success rates

[Chorley]

Evening all An interesting thread Does anyone have any examples/ links of ads they've placed?

Many thanks.

My general advice would be look in temp jobs and check out some of the ads there that are more than a day or two old. That gives a view of what’s likely to stick. Having said that I just had a look for the first time in a few weeks (on SA just now) and the ads seem much more overtly sexual than usual. Maybe its going through a period where its easier to get ads on. I’d still go with that though.

[sparkus]

I had loads of fun on POF a few years back but when I went back on this year it was utterly dire.

Paid Tinder and Bumble this year and enjoyed a mixed bag, including the biggest Chinese chebs I've ever seen and all for free too. One bird who was having a "sex emergency" (the last time she had a cock in her Prince William was single). Certainly no worse than I've met punting but more issues than Vogue. Also discovered there's no shortage of older women who will cook for you, fellate you on their sofa then expect you to return the favour. That's largely why I quit.

[Demuncher]

I became officially single this year and joined Tinder, Bumble and POF.  Found 2 regular fuck buddies on Tinder and 1 from POF and a few more one night stands across all 3 sites.  Always hit them with ive just got out of a long term relationship and am looking for companionship and dating but not sure im ready for a committed relationship yet but lets see how it goes.

If they agree to dates on that basis then sex is pretty much a given. If you are just going out for drinks without dinner then you are getting overnights for less cost than 1h with an escort.  Having said that i havent got any of these dates to lick my arse or do watersports, so there is a trade off.

[UrbanPunter]

As I mentioned earlier I has two regulars, which has now turned into 5 part timers. Yes that’s right 5 non working girls who just wanna make a bit of spare cash and have some fun in the process.

I’ve stopped using escorts from adult work etc and reading reviews now as a consequence. At most I pay £100 for a couple of hours of fun. On longer meets I plump for a cheap travelodge, but mostly it’s in the back of my car for about £50.

I call them up when I want and offer them what I can part with on that day, mostly there up for it. As for emotional connection you simply keep it real and keep them at arms length.

As for dating sites, well it’s exactly that, dating! I’m not in it for an emotional attachment or regular messaging, just a simple transaction with little correspondence.

I’ve stopped listing adverts now because my rosta is full, not to act big headed but if you put the work in and treat them with respect and honesty most are game. That said I’ve had a fair few ask for hundreds of pounds which were sent packing only for them to renegotiate. Eventually met one of them.

In the end it isn’t easy or straightforward but financially speaking I’ve saved enough from not punting to afford a little holiday so so far it’s win win.

[Nicknickson]

I'm interested in giving this a go. Can you let me know what you wrote in the advert to attract the right type of applicant?

[sparkus]

There are other threads on this, but apparently the sweet spot is obtained by hinting enough at what you want while not being obvious enough to get the ad flagged as inappropriate, not least as there's other men out there after the same thing who do that to eliminate competition.
