Pay Attention To The Warning - 9/13/2015 7:54:20 AM

I've been financially ripped off by several Dominant woman. Not too long ago I had a different profile on this site. I began corresponding with a young, beautiful and hot Dominant woman. She wanted $300 an hour and $100 pre-pay into her google wallet before we met.

So I transferred $100 into her google wallet and went to the Starbucks at 1:00pm. She never showed up! And then her profile was gone! Can you believe that! I just want to tell people to read the red warning sign and don't transfer any money into any one's google wallet until you get voice verification.

All I can say is.... more fool you!!

The warning is there in big RED letters for all to see.
Most sensible people see it and take note of it.

If you are sooo overcome by your fetish and the lure of a pretty picture then you deserve all you get.
Chances are, 'she' is a 'he' onto a good scam - that's why they didn't show up.

Sorry, no sympathy for idiotic behaviour.

Well, you know, we all have to learn our lessons. Some of us have to learn the hard way. I'm hoping that people will learn from my mistakes. No need to be harsh. I'm just trying to help people. Geeesh

Yeah, I can believe it. You're very young and horny. That translates into stupid.

Are you sooo naive that all common-sense was just thrown out the window???

I know kids of single-digit age that wouldn't fall for that scam.
And a brief scoot around Google would tell you from all sorts of sites that this is a very common scam pulled by guys and gold-digging girls preying on stupid guys who listen to their little head instead of the big one on their shoulders.

How can you get to be 18 and be so naive of these things??
As I commented earlier - most sensible people take heed of such warnings.
Apparently, you didn't.
That would be your own personal failing, not something generally needing extra attention.

We don't need warnings on the forums - that's why it is in big red letters on every bit of mail you send on here.

So what did you learn from the other 100 or so guys who did exactly the same thing and felt the need to warn everyone on the forums?

Seems that your dick and common sense had a battle. Your dick won, and also lost.

I know that all these comments may seem harsh, OP, but here's the thing.

There have been many, many, many other men who have come on here and posted a similar message about being taken for a ride by a domme, and they only wanted to help others by warning them before those others fell prey as well.

Despite the number of men having done so, there is always another such post to pop up later, saying the same thing.

And another, and another, and another. Who are you going to warn that has not already been warned?

Even better question, since you obviously did not bother to read such posts before you shelled out money to a stranger, what makes you think anyone else will? Why didn't the hundreds that came along before you read those warnings?

Or heed ANY warnings? One poster asked how you made it to 18 years old being so naive. It is a fair question, because stories about such scams are not only all over this board, but all over the internet in general. Every day. How have you managed to learn enough about the internet to be able to create a profile on an alternative site and actually exchange messages with people, without having run across this?

You gave up money without bothering to even do a five second google search on whether or not it could be a scam.

The simple answer is-you didn't want to believe that the person you were giving money to was a scammer. If you had been a third party observing this, you would have seen it as a scam from the beginning. But because you were so worked up over the fetish, you let your dick do the thinking for you.

I don't want to discourage anyone from coming on here and posting something that they think would be helpful to others. Just don't be surprised when it is pointed out that this particular phenomena that you have encountered isn't exactly new or unheard of. In fact, this site is kinda famous for that very thing.

People in the US lose $50,000,000 a year in romance scams. You added your $100 to the pot. Looking at the big picture you really got away cheaply.

I'm shocked. How could this possibly have happened to you?

It's unfair. It's criminal. It's downright deceitful.
Worse yet, she was young, beautiful, hot, and dominant too.
Damn.

I feel for ya, man. I really do.
It's not your fault.
She was a clever one.

Don't feel too bad about it though - she was probably too clever for most of us.
It's a good thing you posted this warning, so I'll be on the lookout for sure.
Otherwise, she might have likely snowed me even sooner than she did you.

Damn those clever Dommes.
Young, hot, AND beautiful!
They'll get me every time - unless someone - like you - takes the time to warn the rest of us.

Before you warned me, I probably would have paid the $300 PLUS the $100, before I realized she was a scam.
So, consider yourself lucky that you're one of the smarter ones, who didn't fall for it hook line and sinker.

Damn those clever Dommes.

Interestingly, his first sentence says it all.

So.... not just the once, but several women no less!!

And for someone naive and stupid enough to have a name such as his for a really crap product... No comment.

If OP is willing to throw money away without so much as checking anything.... I have a bridge for sale...

No no no. You all have it wrong. This isn't a scam, it's the latest kink: Financial Humiliation. The dominant demands funds up front for some service, then fails to follow through. This leaves the submissive feeling dumb/stupid/naive/taken advantage of (take your pick). By getting nothing, you get exactly what you paid for! These aren't scam artists, they are avant garde dominants!

(waits for the Fin "Dommes" to adopt this even easier route to free money)

Naivety and plebeian plankdom is very strong with this one.

Do you not see the irony in his reply??
