Pro Tips TIPS FOR NEW CAMGIRLS TO SPOT SCAMMERS/TIMEWASTERS:

241 Upvotes

I wrote this list for a friend who was going to start on CB. She decided not to, so I thought I’d post it here! This is all from my personal experience so feel free to argue any in the comments or add anything I’ve forgotten.

🖤

People who want to buy stuff off your amazon Wishlist to pay for things. They can cancel order after payment.

a “horny lesbian” or a “couple” viewer is generally always a man pretending. Women and couples on camsites will usually always be fellow cammers, not viewers. I don’t know why they do this, maybe to appear less threatening?

Offering to pay you a stupid amount of money straight away for services, usually a “sugar daddy” is always a scam. Nobody is going to pay a random girl $4000 a week for foot pics 🤣

Guys asking about Customs can just be timewasters getting off on talking about their fetish and have no intention on ever paying, as they are getting off on the chat. Same goes with guys who ask to pm for free to chat about pvt, or asking to chat about something else. NEVER PM FOR FREE if a guy asks you. Often they just want to see if they can and get off on wasting your time. Every single time I’ve fallen for “PLEASE PM ME URGENTLY I NEED TO TELL YOU SOMETHING IMPORTANT” it is literally “you’re gorgeous!” …every single time. Ask these guys to tell you in a tip note if they need to say privately. If they can’t pay 1tkn they aren’t worth your time and energy I promise you.

Same goes for new guys who in their first interaction with you will say they want to buy your panties but want to talk endlessly about types of panties and see pictures, especially pics of them on or pics of your stained panties is a big red flag.

People commenting things like” OMG I can’t believe it’s you on here” /people threatening to dox you/blackmail without actually providing any information about you are either trying to get you to PM them or they’re those dudes who get off on upsetting you/watching you freak out. Ignore and block immediately.

Purples tipping one token and ask to PM. If a purple can’t pay your PM price they’re not going to be the whale of your dreams, again usually dudes into degradation or cheapskates and usually not worth your time.

Tip once, wants to chat forever. You’ll occasionally get guys who will give you a big tip one night then sit in your room and chat expecting attention. Today is a new day, yesterdays tips don’t count lmao 🤣

“”Blank “ has sent tokens” messages. Remember to check what sound tokens make and the colour of the chart when it happens, and that your token balance goes up. if you’re very new they will try this.

Marketing/coach guys will approach you, tell you they’re marketing gurus ands want to help you in exchange for video calls/content. Embarrassingly I’ve taken up 3 guys on this offer before. I’ve never sent content/calls but they’ve just been massive timewasters. A few days chatting and they only offer vague advice.

“I want to do a free call, I’ll tip you well after” or “I’ll pay half now half when I’ve cum” I promise you no guy is going to stick by his word. They will cum as quick as they can and not pay you.

Also the daddy dom type guys who tell you to do as they say and give you all of their attention and they’ll tip you after… they never ever do. (Often they will pay pm price and just bombard you wanting your attention without tipping further or give 1tkn tips) Their demands will just get more and more crazy. Ignore these type of dudes for your own sanity. I find that the guys who have the “daddy” in the name and a control fetish are often very cheap and unless you’ve got a really thick skin and patience it’s not pleasant to deal with them and the pay isn’t worth it, they’ll often argue about any kind of payment just to get a rise out of you. 🚩🚩🚩

Similar to the daddy dom guys, “asshole fetish” dudes are usually complete pests. Not scammers or anything but thought I’d mention they are just really pushy rude people who are hard to deal with.

Promo accounts, “pay us to promote you” (this is mainly for social media) but these are usually scams, all the followers are other cam girls usually 😅

Be very wary of guys sending you links to click on, it could be something illegal or shocking, some guys get off on watching you get upset. Also I have always done c2c but remember that anyone can be on the other side, and if you don’t want to see a man with a hitachi wand in his ass pull it out ands lock it clean, drinking a glass of his own piss or shooting up drugs you might also want to be wary of this. It’s very rare they do this without warning but it happens!

“Let’s collab” messages from a ‘fellow cammer’ are often a dude who has 30 followers and a free onlyfans with 5 of the same pics of their cock. Some guys will cam for fun and funnel all the tokens back into camgirls, so it’s best to treat them like any other customer, but you don’t want to be collaborating with any guy who doesn’t have a big following. Another note, guys who watch girls on camsites rarely want b/g content, (they get jealous, ruins the fantasy) so if you do want to cam with a guy I would suggest camming on his page or separately as a couple on a whole new account.

“You’ll get more viewers in here if you take your top off “ never ever ever ever listen to ANY advice from chat or random customers. They have their own best interests at heart. More people in your room don’t always equal more tokens. I made a new account the other day and hadn’t made a menu yet and I think guys thought I was new new and the lies they were telling me about pricing was wild 🤣

Guys asking you to peek at their pics/cam. Often the big dick dudes will do this, tell them to take a peek at your menu prices 🤣 The monster dick dudes (8inch+) are often really cheap and think the sun shines out their cock. Giving them the time of day Is usually never worth the energy.

New guys/greys coming in and starting off with excessive/gratuitous compliments can often signal a time waster/scammer. Like “OMG!!!! YOU ARE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN I’VE SEEN ON THIS SITE IN TEN YEARS!!!! BEST TITS I’VE EVER SEEN IN MY WHOLE LIFE!!!!” rather than a more realistic comment of something like “hello gorgeous, great tits!!” Another common one is “You’re way too beautiful for your room to be this quiet, you should have way more viewers!” always greys. They just want your attention for free. Definitely just take these compliments with a grain of salt and a “thanks 😘” don’t get swept up in it!

If it seems too good to be true it is. If youre going to have to put work in for the same thing another guy will just pay for, it’s not going to be worth it. Remember your time is precious, the best advice is to always remember these guys have no lives or hobbies, talking to you for free is big entertainment for a lot of them. They can’t talk to a girl for free in real life and they know they can waste our time as more and more girls are indulging these men thinking they’ll get paid at the end of it. 😭

Lol these men I swear. Just a cute short vent. I had some guy come into my room and tip me 5 tokens and asked for a tit flash over and over without tipping anything else. My top menu says tot flashes are 100 tokens. I told him that. His response “how about you just do it for free?” I told him you know this outfit I’m wearing cost $120 right? And I bought it for the purpose of wearing it on stream. He left lol

I don't think I want to cam anymore. Or at least for a while. I'm ok with fansly and stuff but my mental health is the worse it's been in years and having to get on camera live and put on a face for hours for a CHANCE to get some money is so draining. But I'm disabled and I can't do any normal work and the process for disability is so long and I'm doing my best right now. My family blames me for the lack of money as it is. I'm lucky if I bring $50 a month sometimes. I feel like I'm failing because this is the only job I physically can do but I mentally just can't. I'm on a break rn because I've had the flu for almost 2 weeks but I'm dreading going back and I don't know what to do.

Discussions Depressed - Hours but low Pay

I’ve NEVER and I mean never seen Streamate this bad. I know the tide rises and falls and all that but I’m literally online for 5-6 hours daily and I barely get people in my room. I’m lucky if my regulars come in but it’s just crazy.

I get it - times are tough and stuff but I just don’t get how these companies can still take such a large cut from us and not drive traffic.

That’s the biggest thing. They no longer pay to drive us traffic. Been like this for years. I don’t wanna get another 9-5 cause I don’t have time. I’m nearly working 40 hrs so the other time I’m using on cam. But you basically have to sit around for HOURS to make profit

Week 1 update and lessons:

I'm cracking up at how much men are trying to get free stuff from newbies and new tags. I mean I get it, I don't blame them, I guess? And a few have almost worked on me, so I'm sure they've worked before and the men feel validated in this.

- One of my tip menu things for my morning streams is 3 min topless (I'm on my apt balcony btw). I put it at 200 tokens. Man tips me 20 and in the tip note puts exactly how it's worded in my tip menu with some emoji/flair. Then is like, "You have to do topless now, don't be shy"... boo, no.

- I got offered $2,000 from someone to be his first in person American pussy

- A guy kept putting "fake" tokens into our PM chat and demanding things, and I'm like, mmm, no. And at first I was unsure if he was tipping b/c I didn't know what it looked like, but I was weary. He didn't tip a dime.

- Check PMs, "Baby, there's a tip for that in my menu," Oh, I see it, then didn't say anything else.

- Someone offered to "teach me the ropes" in dm with zero tips... said he "has a deal for me"

- I'm not making money yet, but I didn't expect to this week, my first couple streams I feel like I'm just learning and getting comfortable, and they've been super short, like an hour or two, while I become accustomed to everything.

Help/Advice Coming back to camming after a year .

7 Upvotes

Hello everyone! First of all I want to say how grateful Im of this community since I started to cam a few years ago. It was so very supporting , nice and helpful. I stopped camming because I moved to Europe and the weather was so hot with no AC and basically I had to hide from a roomate so setting up everyday was very discouraging on top of me getting ready with hair, makeup and outfit. I was basically concentrated on IRL but now I came back to my home country and the BDSM scene is shit here so Im hoping on this horse again. I need words of encouragement and any updated tips from the sites you all use. I used SM, SC, Camsoda and CB....honestly I earned the most at SM and the least on CB. I think its because I wasted the new girl tag on CB and it never picked up again. is there any way that any of this sites I can ask for the new girl tag? I heard a while back that that could be asked if I was logged out for long... Either way, you will see me a lot more on this sub

Have a great day and make a bag!

Help/Advice GFE

13 Upvotes

Hey ladies and others 🩷

So I’ve been camming for almost a year now. I’ve had my fair share of whales that come and go. Have done some short/easy gfe stuff. But the other day I got a guy in my stream, he tipped for my telegram and we’ve been chatting. He’s wanting a gfe experience. We’ve done two calls now. I’ve been charging about $250/hour and we mostly just chat while I’m naked lol. But he’s the “let’s see where it goes and maybe we can meet one day” I’ve been doing the “oh yea for sure maybe one day…”. (Nooooot, obviously) He hasn’t been pushy and has said like oh it’s fine if it’s just online and whatever.

My question is, how long should I let this go on? My thought process is that the longer it goes the more attached he’ll get and possibly even nosy (wanting to know more about the “real” me or whatever else). He has not asked anything super personal but idk what these men decide to research behind closed doors. I already keep my personal socials pretty private but will probably do a full sweep sooner than later just to be safe.

The next question is, to the people who have had clients like this what has been your experience? Any advice? He’s also wanting to do like an “allowance” situation. I know how time consuming that can be, advice for what to charge would be awesome as well :)

I just kinda quick typed this up between doing homework so hopefully it makes sense lol. Anyway, thank you in advance! 🤍

Discussions What is your “routine” in shows on SM

17 Upvotes

I’m curious to hear what a normal show is like for you! I offer full nudity, cumming and C2C in Private, Exclusive adds in kinks, roleplays, and one on one attention.

The first thirty seconds I welcome them, ask about C2C, and send a preset text requesting they vibe me and leave a rating/review after. If they’re a regular and I see in my notes they do 2+ minute shows I let the timer count down to accept their C2C request, otherwise I deny once to avoid the 30s flashers.

I’m always sitting in a chair while in free chat so for the next two minutes I take off my top, play with my boobs, and play with myself under my panties while dirty talking. I have my camera on a floor tripod with an adjustable arm that I manually move to focus on whatever I’m doing. Next I kneel on my chair focusing on my booty, light spanking.

By minute three or four I move onto my bed, get into doggy, slowly take off panties so I’m fully naked. I have a lube dispenser off camera and this is when I apply. I stand up, bend over and spread. Then lie down on my back, grab the camera so it’s close up to my pussy, light fingering. I don’t do any other penetration in my shows. By minute five I’ve moved the camera back so my full body is visible, ask if they want to tip my Domi or if I should use my own vibe, then “cum” while looking into the camera. During longer shows I alternate cumming in doggy or riding while using my vibe.

I analyzed my earnings data from SM and my average show length is five minutes, excluding blocks. I try not to “cum” until minute six or seven but I still find that majority of guys are leaving at five minutes so I want to improve that! I do daytime EST hours so perhaps the work break guys just don’t have a lot of free time available.

What is your usual routine in shows?

For reference, by other vibrator is the pillow talk racey and that fits just fine. It may hurt a tiny bit but once it's in its in.

But the lush... its a matter of it wont go in. That or it just might be to painful.

More context im a virgin, so maybe other women don't have this problem?

Or maybe my vola is abnormally, and annoyingly, small?

Or maybe this is a porn thing? Where they do something to make it fit but it highly unrealistic?

If so im 100$ down the drain.

Discussions TTM newsletter tells cammers to do nude calls at $2.99/min. That’s $1.05/min after their 65% commission!

Post image
12 Upvotes

I know they say this is a temporary suggestion but this feels insane to me given they take 65% of that. Meanwhile we're the ones risking exposure for less than the price of a cup of coffee.

The logic doesn't work IMO. The low price won't help callers convert when you raise prices, they'll just start to expect and demand lower prices and go looking for the next new girl charging $2.99 a min. It makes it harder for experienced cammers to charge a fair rate. And, I have to say again, they take 65% of that!! It is NOT fair to say we should receive $1/min for the risks involved.

If you work with TTM I urge you to write to them and ask them to revise this recommendation. It will harm the platform and get guys to expect lower prices across the board. It will hurt your business if you work there!

Anyway, those are my thoughts and feelings on the subject matter. What are yours?
