A few days ago, I went on the hunt for some NSA fun. Obviously, I stopped at Craigslist`s “Casual Encounter” section Well knowing how many scammers are out there, I sent a few e-mails anyway, to see, if I could get lucky.

Within a few minutes I got a response from a girl calling herself “Kayla B”.The mail read like this:” I just came through the door...Wanna hook up?" The e-mail came with a picture. Nice body shot, which looked like a pic taken with a cellphone.It indeed looked like a legitimate response.On top; it came naturally from an I-Phone. Needless to say, I replied.

The follow up was almost instant. It came from [email protected].
It said:” Please verify that you are not a rapist or something worse...Just follow the link and do the verification...I have never done this before...Just verify and we can meet up for drinks."
Only to verify that she is real she would not forget to mention the date of her mail in the final sentence.
Now really curious, I followed the link. It directed me to a profile showing a really good looking girl, around 25, light brunette with hazel eyes. On top of the profile you would see "Please verify to meet Kayla B."If you would press the "send a message" button, a browser would open up requesting your cc information, I found myself on “Craig-secure”.
I replied to Kayla, that I felt uncomfortable to leave my cc info on the net.
She answered almost instantly again.”Oh that credit card thing, ….I signed up there 5 months ago and they never charged me. Just verify and we can start chatting.”
This time the e-mail came from [email protected]

I replied a last time, at least I thought so.I copied a complaint from this site in my reply to Kayla.
Her answer came within minutes:”Dunno...If you don’t want to verify, we better don’t hook up...All the creeps are really freaking me out.
Kayla B

I left it at that and was stunned to find a follow up e-mail in my inbox from Kayla B, the very next day.

“Hey, have not heard back from you last night. Here is another link. You can do the verification there without a credit card”

I followed the link again, seeing Kayla’s lovely profile and I could sign up at www.localamateurmatch.com.Obviously, I only had to verify with my credit card.

Still absolutely “wowed” about all this I sent another e-mail to Kayla mentioning the credit card. And you will not believe it….She answered.
She sent me a telephone verification link. The web- site, very similar to Craigslist explained in detail how all violent offender records in North America would be scanned after entering my phone number and e-mail address. I only would receive a telephone call with a verification code, if my records came out clean.
I grabbed the next company phone, punched the phone number into the appropriate field, entered an e-mail address and waited.
The phone rang and somebody gave me a secrete code. Unfortunately, the automated voice forgot to tell me what to do with it.
I was so awestruck and intrigued how elaborate this scheme was that I had to know, if I could find anything about Kayla B.It was not difficult, there are a lot of links which lead to Kayla Banks.
But the 2nd or third link got me to Kayla Banks official web-site and there it was, right on the front page, the lovely Kayla B.with a red tank top and blue panties, hazel eyes and light brown hair. Just as on www.greatlocalnsa.com.
Hey, I could have entered the site, with my credit card. Only $ 40.00, I think
Kayla Banks is apparently one of the best ranking paid porn-sites on the web.
I guess there are a lot of people out there who like to watch her and pay with their credit card.

Hey again

I am interested in something thats NSA.. I also want to keep this discreet.- This is my first time doing this sort of thing online, so I am a bit iffy about it. About my age, yeah, I am young (in my mid 20s) but im definately hungry for someone with experience.

I guess the best way to make plans is to give me a call. Just visit www.kayla2.greatlocalnsa.com and verify that you arent a serial killer or rapist or anything. You dont seem like one but you can never be too careful. When you're done, my number is right there. You can either text me or call me so that we can make plans.

Unknown Person posting on Craigslist - Casual Encounters w4m

I responded. They then responded back to me, and they deleted their posting. Trying to get me to go to their website. I didn’t respond back to their email. Visited website, but had my security & virus software ready! I did not provide or enter and information on their site.

Scammer posters on Craigslist. People posting personal ads, and when a person responds to the ad. The poster deletes their ad, sends you (the responder) an email confirming their interest. This could be for a variety of things, friends or casual encounters. They won’t give a phone number in their email. They lure out to their fake website or scam servers first.

The scammers try to convince people in a legitimate and harmless looking email, to visit a site. The site is suppose to be some kind of Age Verification service for online safety. It is a PHISHING site/scam/fraud.

If you type in (craig secure) into Google search, there is some talk of them being scammers. Or Safe NSA websites, or Safe Dating scams. Clone websites and people who use Auto-Responders or forum flooders.

When someone visits a site that they have been given a link to, the scammer wants you to enter in some information, such as a Credit Card, once this has been done, your suppose to be able to see more information about the person. The thing with these sites, they will have fake Seal logo's and Media logo's.

Sometimes the sites will have just one profile, usually of the person who you originally contacted, even though it is all a Scam and the pictures are stolen and the person uses a fake throw-away email address, unregistered and secretive websites with little info about them. You will try to look up the email address, and find nothing, look up the site, and sometimes there will be little available, or they haven’t been published on Google yet.

There seems to be some (Age Verification) Phishing Scams. They TRY to convince responders that their website verifies people's age. Not true, they just want your Credit Card information...

DON'T fall for those (w4m 24-32 Ads) - I'm just looking for some nsa fun, I don't have anyone to cuddle me...

Report suspected Traps. FLAG them, and keep note of the Posting # and Time and Date. Especially if you responded. Keep Emails and any other information. Make sure to HAVE EVIDENCE!!!

Scammers will often Remove postings once they get enough replies. That means they lured a few (potential) victims. You need to prove that they're messing with you.

This website is a "Craigsecure" website and is supposed to check the age and sex offender status of an individual before allowing them to contact the person for whom the webpage highlights.

I understand the risk factor for people meeting over the internet - no more than meeting a blind date - but I filled out the information including CC info. Once finished I was switched to some porn site and informed that I had a 24 hr free membership - it took me 30 min to cancel it - but after I canceled it there were charges from 3 companies on my card totaling 117.56.

It took me two days of effort to cancel the card, report the unauthorized charges, make a police report and get a new CC. My bet is that the scammers will never be charged and the cost of the scam will just be passed on to CC holders in the form of new or higher fees and interest rates.
