Escort took my L$ without servicing me. Can I report them for ripping people off?

[Shampu123]

Like alot of people on here, I enjoy a few "services" from escorts. There was one that does a really good cam show and offered me a "special show since I have paid for her services several times already. So I agreed and paid her price. Next thing I know, she kept me waiting for her to come on. I still see her on line and ask if there is a problem. I type to her in skype and they respond with not receiving anything or remember me asking for a show. I am not sure if it's the same person but they come up with a story of how the one I paid is an imposter. But when I said how can it be if I always paid her and I have her on my friends list, she tries to say that it's a friend who collects the money while she does the show. I think they are one in the same. Can they be reported for scamming and stealing?

You are out of luck, I'm afraid.

Innula has the correct answer.

But I just can't help myself.

I'm afraid you've been screwed!

You mean, he hasn't been screwed! :matte-motes-big-grin-evil:

About the "imposter" claim...it's possible.  You can never know which Real Life person is logged into a given SL account.  But that doesn't cut any ice...a person is responsible for what happens with their SL account, and if someone else has the password, it's still their responsibility.  Or, could you have paid another avatar with a similar name?  Maybe.  Check your Transaction History.
