To younger broke adults getting into sex work hereās some common scams:
āIāll pay you $ every week for feet/genital/fetish picsā they start a long conversation about this. Then they convince you to send some sample pics. They will try to get you to enact their fetishes with promise of later payment. Then they cut and run. They will be kind, promise large things, but become aggressive when you refuse. Lesson: never give things for free unless youāre specifically doing it for marketing. Personalized fetish content should require payment upfront.
āI want to be your sugar mommy/daddyā These are insanely common and will use a variety of tactics. They prey on vulnerable broke people who are desperate for stable cash. They may try to use a BDSM dynamic to make you feel sexy and submissive. Theyāll start a long flirty conversation that makes you feel good and desired and confident. Then they might send a linkā¦. Donāt click it! Or they might ask you to āprove your loyaltyā as their sub/babygirl/whatever. Proving your loyalty will probably involve sending them money in some way. The most common way is to buy a gift card and tell them the code. If a stranger ever asks you to buy them a gift card thatās pretty much always an instant block.
The same thing goes for āpay pigsā. There are very few people out there actually into financial domination. Chances are people promising you access to their bank accounts are liars trying to get dommed by a stranger, or scammers trying to get money from you.
Thereās essentially two main categories of scams in sex work: 1. Traditional scams (trying to get money, personal info, account access) and 2. Freebie scams (trying to get your SW content for free)
Freebie scams can involve someone trying to piss you off so you curse them out and they can go jerk it to being rejected by someone hot. You can just block people being weird.
As a new or established SWer you literally donāt owe anyone anything unless theyāve specifically paid for a service you offer.
