That sucks! I have never had that happen but after reading what you had to go through I will be sure to do that!! What a-hole! I really don't get how they could sleep with themselves at night either!!

im glad ive been working as a escort for 4 years before cam, so my street smarts are though the roof!

first thing i always ask is where they found me and how long they want
cammodelsdirectory has their blacklist section so i check that then once my payment has gone threw that is the ONLY time i accept friend requests. id love to get in the private section here but me uploading face pics to the thread definately is not going to happen

NEVER USE PERSONAL PHOTOS FROM FACEBOOK OR ANYTHING SIMILAR!
images can be google searched and thats how people often find personal identities, people often use this function to see if pictures are fake as well because it shows every single place on the internet it has been posted lol

you take seperate pics to use on cam sites ONLY

girls who give out numbers for sexting NEVER GIVE REAL NUMBER! TEXT APPS ONLY!
people can search you up on truecaller or similar apps and it will bring up your real name, facebook, and sometimes even address

Not trying to be nosey or critical but, do you live in a socially/ religiously conservative area?

I enjoy my privacy

uploading my info to id verifications are totally different when they are private

private skype shows provide privacy for me if a client won't show his face then he's not seeing mine
i remember every client & what i was wearing in the video, if he's going try to copy my video then he will blacklisted so i'm not worried.

i watermark every photo i post because fighting off girls from stealing my photos is not fun & i've done so in the past.
if a adverting site has a problem with it they lose my business & if i have take payment through their site it their loss because their loosing money for not complying with my safety procedure.

Yessss, girl!

I'm so sorry that happened to you..I'm super new at camming and that's definitely a fear of mine. I feel like it happens to a lot of us at some point. You're very strong to have opened up about the accident! I'm definitely going to be very careful with this kind of stuff.
I hope this one accident won't turn you away from camming, if it's something you truly want to do. Jerks are everywhere, but don't let them bring you down.

Sending you good vibes oxox

Do you use a VPN on Skype?

This literally happened to me as well. And I was on the phone with Amazon for like an hour trying to figure it out. Scams happen & you learn from then. It sucks tho.

Just a note about receiving amazon email giftcards,

I highly suggest always copying and pasting the "claim code" don't get into the habit of clicking the "redeem" button or whatever it is named in the email.

It is very easy to hide a url in the button, and we all know a simple click is all it takes to be infected with malware.

To redeem using the code, the code will be in the email, and to redeem it, login to amazon, go to "Your Account" then click "Apply a Gift Card to Your Account" under Gift Cards section.

I always suggest just keeping giftcards for gifts only, when it comes to shows, photos, videos, snapchat etc, use tokens

A similar thing happened to me some time ago... I got a fake gift rocket and just like you it looked frikkin legit. Another time someone bought all my items off my Amazon wishlist and started making demands and told him he'd have to wait until the orders came in to get spoiled back... He cancelled all the orders in that same moment. Luckily I never followed through with any requests or anything but it still hurt that someone would do that.

This is honestly something that could happen to anyone. And likely has to many of us.

I can understand your apprehension, but if you decide to continue I would definitely make sure it's verified as transferred. If the person can't wait 5 minutes for you to do that, then that's a sign.

I'm so sorry this happened to you. Sending my love.
