Lacy Rose; Laura Fox

pepperjack · June 16, 2023

The ad for Lacy Rose appeared last week, and stuck around for 5 days on LL. There are links to a well-crafted website, a g-mail, and a Twitter account. A deposit of 140 is required via e-transfer, which is sent. When the respondent to the ad shows up at the appointed location, a large apartment complex in Charlottetown, no reply is forthcoming to his arrival texts. Finally after 20 minutes, a heart-wrenching text is received from another text number, indicating that her handler is showing up shortly, and he is hard to reason with, that she cannot return the deposit until 4 days hence, as she has just sent funds to family in Chile, and has maxed out her weekly e-transfer quotient...and so on.

However, no refund has appeared in 6 days, despite repeated requests, and no responses have been forthcoming to the refund requests.

Now a new ad has surfaced from one Lana Fox, with the same content and same pictures, but a new contact number. All contact numbers are in a 437 area code.

The scheme is very elaborate, and the ad and website mimics true escorts so closely, that the forgery is very difficult to ascertain. The pictures in the ad all have blurred facial features, or do not include the face, so no reverse-imaging is possible. Within the ad are several screenshots of text exchanges with very satisfied clients; likewise on the website there are reviews from satisfied clients.

This does not in any way diminish the appropriateness of true escorts to require a deposit for their security and well-being, though; or the need to not show their faces in their ads for similar reasons. It does make it super difficult to weed out the fakes, unfortunately.

But the empty space in the mark's wallet, and the absolute fact of the no-show from the lovely Chilean lady are the facts.

Do exercise extreme caution.

It is important that the community continues to report these scams, despite how embarrassed one might feel about being duped.
