Delightful companions encouraged me to pay a fee of £360 to become a part time escort in the evenings and weekends. I was really struggling at the time with money and it seemed such a fast and easy way to help me get out the red.
I spoke to what seemed a lovely lady called Annabel she rang me most days to discus progress on my registration. I didn’t have the money at the time to cover the cost. I thought about lending it as she said she had clients who wanted to book appointments for me this week. I borrowed the money and before i went to pay me fee she promised me it wasn’t a scam and guaranteed i would of made my money back the next night. And would be 1500 up just in this week.
I borrowed the money of friends and family and promised them the money at the end of the week as I was TOLD I would of had three bookings this week which potentially meant i would of had 1500 in my back pocket. As i was informed i get £475 each dinner date. When i went into the western union the lady warned me and told me to NOT pay as it was a SCAM. I rang the company back and explained what had happened and that I didn’t pay and why. The lovely Annabel told me how she couldn’t live with her self and physically couldn’t do that to me and it was legit and how well I would do in this industry.
Promises guarantees and blatant lies were told over the phone. I have never received a booking never received a phone call back i have never been issued with my escort guide book i have been promised over and over. The company are a disgrace. Un helpful money grabbing heartless people.
I believe in karma and they have got what is coming for them. I really hope no one ells falls into the trap i did. Please don’t send money to any one you don’t no or have never met. I might of well as given a homeless of the street £360!!
I have spoken to loads of other agencies their is a real good one i would love to recommend. Angels for you. Ask to speak to Sue she is wonderful and will give you any free advice you need. Escort agencies are like recruitment agencies when you want a temp you don’t have to pay Reed any joining fees they take it out of your wages. Please IF IT Sounds to good to be true its because it is

[28/05/2010] seanie: A request to pay by western union and moneygram transfers instantly cause a red flag to me. Unfortunately criminals are using these respectable payment services as a way to get unwary people to send them money. Type in 419 scams on google to see how these companies are doing this or go to scams.com
[17/06/2010] Jennifer Wilton: I too was nearly duped by these awful companies but before parting with my hard earned cash, I looked on the saafe website which told me all I neede to know about scams.
I tried several companies so had a lot of harrassment of them phoning me. Alarm bells rung when i sent an email and in less than a minute they were on the phone. One company really tripped up nightstoremember - very defensive! I sent an email asking how payment was made to see if they were the same as dateangels and they were, sending money through western union to spain. I googled the mans name and it showed him on netlog a dating site!
I asked nightstoremember to send me an email of the details to pay and the woman found it very difficult to do this - a 2 minute job - made excuses about going to a meeting - saafe said scams don't send emails. All i wanted was something that I couldn't lose! She was also defensive about why the money went to spain instead of head office in Bristol, being a time factor - I'm sure Bristol is closer than spain! I'm not going to part with money to strangers, be warned if they ask for money its a con!
