My selection MO(which seems to be working so far) is this.
From what I can see there's tons of fit girls there(London backpage) but the issue is that a lot of the profiles us fake pics and can be late bait and switch but below is what I'm doing to avoid that as I'm finding it easier to find chicks there than on AW(unless reviewed on here).
1. Do a google image search on the pics. If they come up as someone "internet famous" and the have like 10k followers on insta I avoid as the pics are most likely fake and stolen from that instagram account. But if the pics come up on insta and there's not a whole lot of followers(say under 3k) they're probably legit. I also check to see if there's any recent pics in London. If there are, things chick is probably in London and working as a prossie so all good. Only thing that I'm finding a touch surprising is how many of these 'insta honeys' are £150 an hour wg's. Good to know in my opinion
I also look for regular pics mixed in with super sexy pics as that could mean they're on the game. I'm also looking through their insta and if they've got tons of regular pics but a few sexy ones that are on their profile, I'm thinking they've got a good chance of being legit.
2. If the pics don't come up on insta or something, I see if they come up on any other sites for WG's. If advertised in multiple places they could very well be legit.
3. When looking at the pics I'm looking for kinda regular pics, selfies, pics in a club or pics actually in London. if there is purely just highly stylised air-brushed pics I'm tending to avoid. I make sure I really look HARD at the the pics to see what's real, what they're hiding and what's been photoshopped.
4. With the phone number, I like to see if they have a WhatsApp pic and of that pic looks natural. If so, that's usually a good sign for me.
5. I also look and see if the user has multiple profiles up. If they do I tend to avoid.
6. You can also tell by the style of the writing. If it's very similar another WG that they've got up and the pics are of a similar style I kinda think those ones have a good chance of being legit.
7. I also look for profiles with vids as that's a good sign of them being legit.
8. Not that it helps but I tend to stay away from EE's. I imagine they scam a lot, plus in general, not really my vibe.
9. Some of the profiles will specify 100% real pics(which could mean anything) but will also say, if not me, fuck for free so you gotta think those have got a good chance of being legit. Also because a lot of them(girls, pimps, maids, whatever) know there's a lot of fakes on there they'll have a regular picture (not sexy) with themselves in it holding up a piece of paper with the date on it or with a london paper. I feel like those are good signs also.
10. Age wise, I'm personally not looking for anyone over 30 as they all lie about their age and I imagine that if they say they're in their 30's, they're probably a lot older and there's a high chance they could look a bit haggard when you get there. In real life, I'm cool with any age depending on how they keep themselves but am cautious about taking that risk with a prossie.
Anyways, that's what I'm doing. Not saying it's 100% right or wrong. Could be a crock of shit but I'ma keep rolling like this and we'll see how we go
