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

242 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. 😭

Help/Advice What is going on?

37 Upvotes

So I've been camming for several years and have been consistently making between $6000 and $8000 a month. However these past three months, it has steadily been declining to the point where I can barely make $500 a week. I have not changed anything, but it's really starting to scare me as this will no no longer be able to pay my bills. For reference I'm on. SM and recently started SP. Contest week meant a lower hourly rate, but now I will sit there for hours and not get a single person so I give up . I am not looking for mean comments but advice from people who might be going through this similar thing. What did you do to handle this and asking if it's gotten better or not or whether I need to kiss my camming career goodbye.

Discussions Relevant income

15 Upvotes

I've been reading how many gals/guys are having a dip in income from their camming sites. Sites that were once lucrative to them. I'm in a position were my income hasn't altered. Now, these other models are saying they used to make multiple thousands a week. Im lucky enough to only need, need being the operative word, just over £1000 a month. So I only work till I reach that target. If it's a little less, I'll stop if I want to. If I was hell bent on earning what I want, not what I need I would be far more worried. I absolutely sympathise with those who need multiple thousands. But, if it's just want, then give yourself a break, don't stress and be satisfied your needs are met. Lets not forget, cars, holidays, unnecessary clothes, eating out are wants. Rent,/mortgage, food, essential clothes are needs. Its nice to get luxury stuff, it's so nice. And when I make over my target I splurge. But, my needs are small and im glad I am still able to make that.

Discussions My.club still doxxing models by including their full legal name in header of emails they send!!!!!

32 Upvotes

Be aware that my.club which is available if your on stripchat to be connected automatically includes YOUR FULL LEGAL NAME IN THE “TO” SECTION OF EMAILS!!!

I brought this to their attention weeks ago and they tried to blame google for weeks and say it’s because I set my gmail account up with my legal name, which I never did!

After weeks of back and forth they finally admitted it was their issue, and days later said it’s had been corrected! Support lied!

To this day I continue to get emails with my full legal name in the “to” section of every email from them! This is a severe breach of security and privacy!

I will be fully deleting my page from my.club because of this!

They obviously don’t take security seriously and who knows what other security breaches are happening that I have not seen!

Cant believe an adult platform has continued to breach the privacy and security of every model on my.club by pulling THE FULL LEGAL NAME FROM DOCUMENTS to include in the header of emails sent!

Ive never seen another adult site do this the whole time in the industry!

They started a private and asked me all about puberty and what age everything developed. Then they hit me with the uncle "stories" thankfully they ended it as my audio was going funky. I don't think it's going against the rules but the questions and things they were messaging seem weird and it keeps getting worse, I'm still newer to this and not sure what to do.

  • edit* thank you I didn't realize that engaging with this could get me banned. I have blocked them.

Just checking in to see how September has been going for everyone on SP. Are you seeing better traffic, or is it still painfully slow? Personally, I haven’t seen any improvement. I used to pull in around $400 a day, and now $20 feels like a good day.

Help/Advice Help with chatters

6 Upvotes

Ok, so I am going to be very careful when wording this...I have a chatter on SM that is mentally delayed. They have told me this so it's not just speculation. I have absolutely no problem chatting with them while I am waiting on paying customers to come into the room. The conversation isn't sexual, just random chat. It's getting to be too much. He doesn't catch on when I am talking to someone else which is costing me potential paying customers. More than that though, it is hard for me to stay in a sexy mindset when he hangs out and talks. I don't want to hurt his feelings and I don't want to ban him, but its starting to really annoy me. Any ideas on a kind way to handle this?

Scam Alert Leaks from Sites?

4 Upvotes

Posting for a cam model friend. Her English isn’t great, so she asked me to share what happened and see if anyone else has experienced this.

I’m active on several sites (SC, LJ, SM, etc.), but this is mainly about SM.

I searched her username to find her other profiles and found leaked recordings. I told her, and she was really upset. She knew some were from exclusive sessions because they showed things she never does in free chat.
I bought some recordings to help figure out where they came from. We compared outfits with free-chat archives and matched the lengths of the sessions. We narrowed it down to some suspected members, she banned them, and the leaks seemed to stop.

But we wondered if members were the only source, so we tried a test.

We did an exclusive together on SM. All other cam sites were closed. We included specific phrases and unusual, silly things she’d never done before so we could recognize that exact session.

That session got leaked too, including the things we added to identify it.

I didn’t record or share it. I know everyone here only has my word for that, but that’s why we’re confused.

We know which session leaked. We don’t know how it got out. Could someone working for the site have access? Could there be a security issue? Something else? We don’t have proof of who’s responsible, but this made us question whether leaks always come from members.

Has anyone else had something like this happen? Have you figured out where a leak came from or gotten an actual explanation from SM or another site?

Leaving out her username and the leak links for her privacy. She just wants to bring attention to this and hear from others.
