Staying Safe When Doing Online Sex Work.
YOUR BUSINESS WON'T RUN ON CREDIT. Take payment upfront.
If it seems too good to be true it probably is, Don't believe in the promise believe in the proof!
Don't use your real name!
Turn on 2 factor authentication wherever possible.
Invest in a VPN. (This hides your IP and location)
DON'T CROSS POST IMAGES TO YOUR VANILLA ACCOUNTS OR VICE VERSA reverse image search exists.
DON'T BE AFRAID TO SPEAK UP OR REPORT AND BLOCK PEOPLE (This doesn't mean get involved in every drama you see).
When you set boundaries then stick to them, don't let someone who pays you control you.
Know that your images are now out there, and you have decided to put them out there, that does mean that someday there may be potential consequences. Know that you have rights if you are being threatened and you will be supported.
Don't feel like you have to talk to subs for free because they might send you something or sub, if they wanted to send you something or sub they would have already done it, keep your conversations direct. I personally only ever reply to twitter DMs about custom content, and only continue the convo if its about that custom.
How to respond to a sexual message or comment from a sex worker.
"I would appreciate it if you'd have a more professional attitude towards me as I am your colleague not your customer"
If it continues just block and report them to others.
Make a new SW email, this can be for Google docs or even your 18+ sites and socials.
ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS, wait until you have a wishlist item in your HANDS before you offer any rewards, wishlist items can be cancelled
Don't EVER send out ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION this includes bank details, log ins, personal social media's, try and refer to your location as generalised such as the state or in the UK you could use North South ect. This also applies to media content, avoid using recognisable landmarks in your local area.
TURN OFF LOCATION DATA ON YOUR CAMERA Most phones and cameras will include EXIF data within photos, this can include your location. Most phones have an option in the camera/settings to turn this off. While this doesn't apply to Twitter, instagram and other major platforms as they remove this data, if you are sending photos directly (such as imessage, Dropbox, Google drive, email) these sites WILL include such data.
The basic scams/scam techniques:
❌claim to be a "sugar daddy/mommy" or give a "cashapp blessing", or "sub to a few people" ➡️ 99.9% of the time are scams and bait tweets to gain exposure.
❌needing payment to "unlock" funds ➡️ SCAM you do NOT need to pay a fee to receive funds
❌requires ANY form of content, services or "verification pictures" before paying ➡️ SCAM they just want freebies!
❌asks for a portion of money to be sent back ➡️100% a scam.
❌pending PayPal payments ➡️ use caution these can be refunded.
❌someone tipping you a lot very quickly ➡️ (this is not always a bad thing however its common behaviour of people who then refund the payments after getting content)
❌Exchanging content or services for promotion ➡️ scammy and scummy behaviour, there are honest and decent places that will promote you for free or mutual support.
❌NEVER use someone's bank card ➡️ they can get the payment refunded.
❌Fake links ➡️ the company infpossible/infpossibility/infinite possibilities are notorious for this on twitter, they send fake links pretending they're trials for l4l and try and hack swers accounts.
