PSA: Forum PM Scammer

[sackwack]

jp:
Thanks for the notification. This type of PM is very decieving. Ill stay in the lookout as I have been spammed before.

I received one like this about a week ago, but I just blocked the user. I'll report it now.
EDIT: can't report it, I deleted it already.

I'd say this type of PM is so obvious, that anyone who actually falls for it probably deserves such a lesson.
No real person would ever go for saying such things into 1st PM. Dommes are not robots that exist for teasing you. They are people, and people start by making a friendship BEFORE giving you skype number usually.

Are you sure she is a scammer? - (I dont get how this is a scam.)

Has someone been scammed by her or is it just that she is asking for money for dominating people?

My logic says that a scammer wouldn't be using skype for a scam. (Being a cam program.).

She defiantly is a spammer though and is in this forum many times.

eg: http://www.milovana.com/forum/memberlis ... le&u=33394

However I would be doing the same thing if i was a Mistress and trying to make a living out of dominating as thousands of women do.

I was contacted, too - and I fell for it, partly. On my defence, I received the message the day I registered, so everything was (and still is) pretty new for me and I was all like "Wow, this is great!" but once we (after short discussion on Skype) got to the point "register on this site and choose the cheapest option, I don't want to drain you" (or something like this, she sent me a link to some dating site, might be fake).

Well, thank you for this thread! :)

This kind of thing has been in the news a lot lately. This isn't just an ordinary credit card scam. They aren't just getting people to hand over money for services, the aim is to get you on camera so they can threaten to expose you and blackmail you. Everyone needs to be safe online, and obviously common sense comes into play here, but everyone has off days and it's not hard to get sucked into something if you aren't feeling 100%.

There is only so much we can do to target this problem on Milo, and that relies on everyone being vigilant and reporting these kind of messages.

And this is why I -never- post pictures on sites like Milovana. It only takes one guy that traces them back to you years later to get in trouble. And with the uprising of facial recognition software, such as the one facebook uses, keeping pictures of the kinky kind you post on here secret might become very hard to do in the future.
