Attempted Blackmail - Worthing, Sussex

[TotalRecall]

Last week I made some queries with a brazillian escorts that went by Larissa (link at the bottom), but due to the inability to answer questions about her services, I decided to not follow through and make a booking.

Today I have received a phone call from a number ending 0838 basically threatening me for wasting the escorts time and trying to extort money from me. I hung up and blocked the number, and as it is my punting number I am not worried, but as a courtesy I thought I would make this thread as a warning. I cannot say for sure it was this Larissa's handler, but I cannot think of anyone else I have contacted and not arranged a meet as it has been a while since I last punted.

Don't worry about it - nothing will happen
Many of us have received similar over the last 2-3 years and there's been no repercussions.
Either ignore it, or tell them to fuck off (depending on how you feel or whether you can be bothered)

Interestingly the photos do seem to match a Brazilian girl called Larissa Lopez - two profiles of her in Italy

Pimeyes also has her on various social media sites as well, and shows that she has been on AW

However not to be confused with a TS currently in the UK of the same name

It all has the feel of a genuine profile - unless someone has stolen not just the photos, but the girl's complete identity. But the profile looks too "right" for that.
I'd be inclined to think the scam originates with a different profile

Yeah, I'm not worried as it's my punting number. But first time this has ever happened and by coincidence its the first time I have ever contacted an escort advertising solely on VS.

Lesson learnt; don't use VS.

Steady on, don't cut your nose off to spite your face. You are drastically limiting your options if you solely rely on AW for your punts. VS has its merits

It’s just a punting hazard we all have to endure. Tell them to fuck off 👍🏻

VS has its merits have punted off there before without any issues

[alabama1]

If it wasn't for VS offering some competition/alternative,  Adultwork prices would be even more extortionate than they are now. I've had some great punts on VS, and some crap punts on AW over the years

Don’t worry about a little shake down from a pimp.
Wait until you’re in the street with a few hundred in cash and your face to face with a pimp .. fight or flight kicks in. Just remember the seen out of the layer cake when Daniel Craig  say to the dragon chap “ do you know where I live” and he’s say” no I don’t “ so fuck off “

The best thing to do with these is to wind them up and tell them they're being investigated by MI5/the flying squad/the A team. Provided you're using a punting phone, you're absolutely fine.

Are you suggesting if you’re not using a punting phone…… you should pay up. ?

Nah, just that a punting phone should always be used in this game (including to piss pimps off.)
