Anyone have any experience with these? I troll 'em every once in a while to see if anything interesting pops up & I often get women who seem respectable enough suggest that they'd have sex with me in exchange for a little "help". It's obvious they're not professionals, they're just down on their luck a little bit & need a bit of help but they're cognizant enough of the fact that they won't just get it for free, they'll need to do something in return.

Not going to lie....the idea turns me on. I wouldn't do it because I've got much better things to spend a few hundred dollars on (plane tickets, gasoline, fun stuff, actual dates with girls, as few as they may be) but it's very interesting to think about.

And a lot of these girls are actually quite attractive! Very interesting.

What do you guys think?

I think that prostitution has gotten lazy to the point of using craigslist to troll for johns.

Hmmmm. That may be the case, but these girls that I'm finding really are "real, run-of-the-mill" average girls. Not working girls. They're just in tough situations, I guess.

I don't buy it. A self respecting woman does not decide one day *Hmmm the telephone bill is overdue...let me go sell myself on craigslist* These people are most likely professional prostitutes trying to make potential clients believe they are *run of the mill normal people*. And it seems to be working

Just go to a bar it's MUCH cheaper. If you want to pay for it go to backpage.com and escorts.

Could be lazy but I'm leaning toward smart. I doubt that the OP is the only person in this country who's had at least a fleeting thought of taking the bait.

I couldn't imagine that someone would go for one of these adds thinking that you'd be corresponding with an average woman who happens to be down on her luck. Even if I was interested, I wouldn't be able to pull the trigger because in the back of my mind all I'd be thinking is that this has to be some type of set-up. Not the sort of set-up where the cops come kicking down the door. More like a set-up in which a couple of the woman's friends are waiting for me in the bathroom ready to jump out and pistol whip me.

Attractive or not, I'll try my luck with at the local watering hole. At least there, I'll be relieved of my funds peacefully via $7 beers rather than by the 2 thugs waiting in the next room.

Hey, Soviet. Don't you ever read the scam warnings that are posted on craigslist? They post them there because they're true! The vast majority of those type of ads are out-and-out scams. Send me money for a plane ticket to meet you...I'm just down on my luck...etc., etc. Heck, I bet most of them aren't even written by women. They could also be from anywhere in the world. Heck, even the real prostitutes (which openly used craigslist, until they were shut down) were known to post phony pictures. Think about it...and then move on and do something constructive with your life. You'll save yourself a lot of headache (some of which could literally become very physical, if you'd find yourself in a bad situation!).
