Held your composure very well.
I am glad that there is no damage done.
You did the right thing and sort of pointing new ways folks scam.
[QUOTE=RKrishna9;2221536]TL; DR.
I just had some nerve wrecking moments with an SP who tried to scam me. I knew that most of the Locanto ads are scams. But I actually gave it some good thought and concluded that the scams happen generally in In call but Out call in some hotel should be foolproof. Based on this assumption, went to MG Road and planned to take a OYO and call some girl for Outcall. I set the budget to 10 k which is pretty less compared to what the escorts charge normally. May be if I ping late in the night, they might agree given that its better than nothing. So I selected some VIP escort contacts from Locanto and pinged them on whatsapp.
There was one contact which was present in lot of ads and he started responding to the texts. I informed prior that I can spend only 10 k and only for full night and not short term. He asked which hotel I am staying in and told him that I haven't actually checked in yet. I asked him to recommend some safe hotels. He did not respond after that for long time. I had my dinner after that told him that I will take OYO in s*iva*I nagar. Then he responded to my texted and asked me to book oyo in Koramangala. He suggested one in Kormanagala which I booked. I reached the place and pinged him. While checking in, the reception guy kind of knew what was going on. May be because I was checking in at 12 in the night alone without any luggage except for my backpack. Post payment, he asked if madam will be coming as he need to enter how many people would be staying in the room. I kind of felt relief after hearing it. I thought he will make some nuisance when the girl shows up. Spent 1. 5 k on the room. Post check-in, I pinged him the room no. And the guy asked for a pic of the key which I took and sent him..[/QUOTE]
