    A lot of these posts, and the ones on An Don's earlier thread, casually assume that verified = real and unverified = fake. Life is not that simple. We have had a number of cases of fake photos being marked verified and of genuine photos being marked unverified. It's hardly surprising when you realise that the people doing the "verifying" don't really have any more information than you do.

    “All right,” said the Cat; and this time it vanished quite slowly, beginning with the end of the tail, and ending with the grin, which remained some time after the rest of it had gone.

    You are though, i think, morally obliged to state she is not the lady in the pictures on any report you do submit. If you guys don't stick together you haven't much hope.
    Thanks, of course you are right.
    The lady in question has submitted different profiles but I have not submitted a subsequent review as I cannot put my name to such reviews.
    Does that mean the service provided is inadequate?
    No, but I don't feel it is fair to the other escorts.

    I don't want to approach the issue with her (perhaps I am a coward), but I do believe she will see the error of her ways in time. After all this is quite a small industry and if an escort is in it for the long term she will know this.
    I do hope so.

    I always believe the best in people, although I may be let down in times I do believe this is the best principle.

    I trust we are placed on this earth to help and encourage others to do their best - lest hope so!

    However if I see pictures, it only provides an interest for me to look further.
    Once we meet it is the skill of the professional escort that will ensure that I will fall for her and ensure I will call back to capture the dream and illusion this escort offers.

    I may know this is not real, total illusion, but it will not stop me from coming back to experience this dream.

    If it is too good to be true, well thank goodness I am in a dream world where illusion can become reality.
    Thank you to the escort who can provide this illusion into reality!
    There is little point in thanking an escort that turns an illusion into reality, because if she turns out to be reality then there is no illusion in the first place.

    We as punters HAVE to be able to rely on the photos advertised on a profile. This is our first port of call in choosing an escort. We have to be confident when making that choice that we will be met by the girl advertised. There is no defense for an escort that posts fake photos, or photos that are unreasonably out of date.

    You say you have met an escort who is advertising using inaccurate photos but yet knowing that you are pleased with the girl and her appearance. That is all well and good and more power to ya, but I still feel you are duty bound to mention this in your review so as that the next punter is not fooled into meeting someone he is not expecting visually. If you do not decide to mention same, the credibility of your review may be questioned by the next punter, and by consequence, possibly all your other reviews as well. You are doing little damage to an escort to say that she is not the girl in the photos but you still find her highly attractive...

    If she is that attractive it would be in her interest to post accurate photos…

    Quite. Also if a lady opts out of reviews then her pics automatically go back to unverified.

    This should not be the case Gordie. The verification process requires a photo of oneself sent to staff before pictures are marked Verified. Now whereas it is not an exact science its a start. It is really down to us punters to endorse said verification.

    No. Think about it. The verfication process requires a photo of someone. How are Ad Staff to know who it's a photo of?

    Ad-staff/e-i, makes the rules for what the verification photo should be. Could be them standing on their head with a copy of todays newspaper and e-i written on the forehead for all we care. They set the rules, that way they can very closely make sure that atleast the verification picture is ok + none of the other show up on tineye, that should be a good start.

    It is a problem - I am not talking about out of date pictures but rather fakes - if you are not happy when meeting an escort who uses fake pictures then leave - tell her why and leave.

    Hey I’m with you on this one Pal.....but lets not assume that staff are stupid. The verification picture should be assessed while the Awaiting Verification status is in place. I can only assume when face is not shown that a reasonable likeness of body form is used. That is why I have said it is not an exact science and it is up to us. I would have thought that staff with all the resources available should at least try and be more vigilant though as many members using Tineye have rumbled numerous Verified profiles.

    A photo of a lady standing on her head is no problem for an agency. They have plenty of ladies. It tells you nothing about the lady who is going to open the door when you show up.

    Tineye would be a good idea, but I'm pretty sure Ad Staff aren't using it. Even if they were, it would only weed out the most brazen fakes.
