How to spot a scammer
​
Some of y'all need a reminder on how to spot a scammer. There are so many F4M posts that are just scammers posting lots of times, getting horny subs in their DMs in hope of getting an advance "tribute" before ghosting them.
Most common ways of spotting it:
Weird phrases or bad grammar
I know that not all of us are the best at English grammar, but there are a few things that are a giveaway. A non-English speaker might not realize "Seeking for" is not a phrase we use like "looking for". Also, any use of the word "kindly", that word was popular in British English over a hundred years ago, and the west dropped it, but many south Asian countries did not. Also read the body of the post, if it sounds like it has a few odd sounding phrases like "I'm in the mood for giving a \[blank\]" , it's likely a scammer.
Trying to give "tasks"
This one is just not understanding how a BDSM or hypnosis relationship works. You don't just go to a domme and get tasks. Definite scammer.
Telegram, Snapchat, Onlyfans in the bio/post
Real posters aren't advertising their social media (unless they're sellers, but non-scammer sellers make that obvious) . Scammers are doing that so you'll message them and they can start their scam. Plus, they're trying to get you off of Reddit so they don't get banned. Another common one is "to do a session, you have to join my OF"
Requests designed to appeal to everyone with no limits
Really short vague posts about hypnotizing you, making you theirs, taking care of you, making you cum, etc appeal to a lot of subs. Be wary of posts like this. Most real hypnotists or doms will have some sort of specific thing they are looking for, or a limit, like "I'll edit this when I've found what I'm looking for".
Asking for an advance tribute, and avoiding verifying
Any real professional erotic hypnotist, for one, usually posts on , but also will be upfront with it being paid, as per the rules. Scammers will act like they're ready to do a session just cause they like you, and then ask for a fee or tribute all of a sudden. Then they'll tell you that they do this all the time and have never been asked to verify before a session, or sound offended when you ask. I've actually seen someone "verify" by posting an audio from WarpMyMind, be very wary of this, and always try and look up the audio to see if it's stolen.
Being suspiciously close to where you live
A scammer will ask your age and where you're from, and then will magically say "oh, I live in X city" which is like 1 city over from you so you paying them for their gas seems more plausible (which is the scam of course). Best way to avoid this is to lie about where you live.
Edit:
Responds to every comment with "pm me"
This one is obvious when you think about it. What regular domme is trying to get as many subs as possible? Scammers do it. Real pros do it too, but they've made their intentions clear in the post, are willing to verify, etc.
Asking you to name your price/tribute
This is so that they can get whatever they can out of you. Real pros have a rate and they aren't going to negotiate it for someone they just met.
Asking for nude pictures right out of the gate without any real hypnosis
This is a more insidious scam. What they try to do is extort money out of you by saying they'll send it to your job, family, etc. But they never act on the threat. But avoid this by only sending pics to hypnotists you trust.
