We’re all very familiar with the classifieds site Backpage.com. If you’re not, then you’re living under a rock or something like that. What you might not realize is that there are sites out there where you can buy Backpage credits. Now, some of you may wonder why on earth you’d need to buy credits for Backpage if it’s a free classifieds site?

Well, the fact is that not everything is free on Backpage. If you’re looking to post ads, you typically have to pay for them. Basically, that means each and every escort, call girl, hooker, prostitute, and horny local needs to pay in order to post their ad on the site.

For those of you still unfamiliar with Backpage and the site concept, I’ve covered this stuff in depth at the local level in some cities and regions. For example, I’ve covered New York City, Orlando, Vegas, and many more areas.

Now that you’re more familiar with Backpage, let me share why I believe the owners of the BackpageCredits.com are complete scammers and scumbags in my personal opinion.

Reasons Backpage Credits Is A Scam Site

Before I get deep in the trenches here and provide information on the BackpageCredits.com site, I want you to know that this is not the only scam that I’ve uncovered with regards to payments. The owner of Backpage Credits also owns the Bitcoin4Backpage.com, BackpageDollars.com, Buybpcredits.com and Bitcoins4Backpage.com website.

Here’s why you MUST avoid the BackpageCredits.com website.

For starters, if you didn’t know, Backpage has been shut down. It’s no longer in service and the owners of the mega classified ads site are in jail for human trafficking and other crazy criminal charges. More of these sites are getting shut down daily too. The Independent Girls site owner just got arrested, so I’m guessing that one will eventually shut down as well.

Not good, I know.

At any rate, the site no longer exists. It’s been shut down by the Federal Government and there are only clones out there today.

Why Does The Backpage Credits Site Exist?

This site was created to supposedly help people put money into their Backpage accounts in order to fund their accounts without having to wait or without restrictions. They make it seems like you can purchase credits using hundreds of types of payments including credit cards.

This may have made sense when the Backpage.com decided to only accept Bitcoins. However, now that it’s shutdown, it’s completely useless.

Who Owns The Site?

I took a closer look at the site and learned that the company behind BackpageCredits.com is PJCG, LLC (which is public information) and it was started back in 2001 out of Ranger, TX.

A website dug even deeper than I and during my research. I learned that this entity had some tax forfeiture issue in 2006. While I’m not going to expose the owner’s name, if you do a search for the company you will find it. My advice would be to not waste your time doing so.

Biggest Problems Breakdown

Here are the biggest problems that I have with this site and why…

• All of these sites are owned by the same company.
• Some of the websites, specifically, Buybpcredits.com is not PCI compliant due to the missing SSL.
• They are exchanging money illegally.
• The sites are operating a non-specific, non-licensed money service.
• They violate terms of service for various payment providers
• There are shady terms and conditions which people may feel is associated with false advertising.

YesBackpage.com

Here’s another major red flag in my humble opinion. This Backpage Credits site is closely associated with the YesBackpage.de website. Interestingly enough, if you take a look at the footer of the site you will see a bunch of links to this site.

What I can tell you is that the YesBackpage site is essentially a fake Backpage or copycat site, nothing more. The YesBackpage.de has no real listings other than those listed under the Adult Services section of which I don’t believe are even real (my personal opinion).

Conclusion: Do Not Use The Backpage Credits Site

Look, the bottom line is that Backpage is gone forever and there’s no reason for these so-called credit sites to exist. Whether it be for Bitcoin, gift cards, Western Union, ACH or whatever. There’s no reason to use them. They’re operating in hopes that people continue to attempt to buy credits for the faux Backpage site known as YesBackpage.de.

Do not waste your time or money here. Trust me, it’s a huge waste and you’ll be sorry if you do. In fact, you’d be an idiot to do so.

If you’re using Backpage or the alternatives or copycat sites out there for hooking up, then just STOP IT! There are plenty of other options out there that will not rip you off. They will not cost you a crazy amount of money, and where you will not have to pay people to have sex with you. Just use one of the top 5 dating apps for sex and you’ll win big time in the long run. No credit purchases needed, no shady classified ad screening, no pimps, no hoes – just horny local people looking for sex.

There, I’ve shared my thoughts on this site and hope it helps a couple of people save money in the long run. If you have any thoughts, questions or concerns, please leave a comment in the thread.

I’ve been spending my entire weekend researching and reviewing classified ads sites. One of those sites is known as Vivastreet and I’m not going to sugar coat anything here – IT SUCKS. There’s no doubt about it, vivastreet.co.uk is so bad and dangerous that using it quite possibly might cost you your freedom. Are you willing to give that up just to get off?

I didn’t think so!

If you said you’d be willing to give up your freedom just for some nookie that you have to pay for then I’m sorry but you, my friend, are an idiot. I say that in the most sincere and nicest way possible.

So, why do I think this site sucks so bad when it comes to hookups and fulfilling your dating desires? It’s because they’re as shady as it gets. In fact, they’re so shady that the DailyRecord.co.uk recently published an article linking the site with sex slaves and human trafficking. What can I say really? That’s what you get for using a crappy free classifieds site.

I’d like for it to be known that I am 100% against hiring any girls to have sex or provide sex services at all, period. If you’re into that type of thing, then you’re not going to like what I’m about to share today. At any rate, here’s my complete review of the site and everything I know that they’ve done to screw over both escorts and consumers.

My Review Of VivaStreet.co.uk (WARNING)

I’ll kick off my review by sharing some details with you about the business. Vivastreet is currently owned by a company called Digital Ventures Services Ltd. This company gets away with a ton of stuff and my guess is that it will eventually get shut down if enough pressure gets placed on the website and their operations.

Not Shy About Things

The first thing I’ll say is that the site is not shy about offering escort services. They have links all over the homepage which literally state that they’re the “popular links” on the site. I’m talking about things like London escorts, Bradford escorts, Glasgow escorts, Edinburgh escorts, Adultwork and even TS escorts. This is ridiculous and something that you should think twice about. No other classified site which largely covers to mainstream consumers makes mention of escorts on the homepage.

The Personals Section

I took a look at the Personals section and here’s what I noticed in the Women Seeking Men section (which is the section men typically check out). Many of the women post in multiple categories across lots of areas. This tells me that most of these women are obviously not local. If they were, they wouldn’t have the same listings across various geographical locations.

I also noticed that lots of the women provide their email addresses and contact information with nothing really verifying who they are or that the emails are real contacts. One thing I found absurd is that the Vivastreet site allows you to email people in the ads and send them your email address, phone number, a message, and even an attachment. This is really crazy considering the fact that there are so many issues that arise from contacting someone and providing them with your personal information without screening them. This is

The Adult Dating Section

VivaStreet.co.uk has an adult dating section which isn’t very impressive if you ask me. It’s within the Free Personals (hint: there are a few sites with free personals sections that actually work – click here to see them) and the Adult section of the VivaStreet.co.uk site. When you enter this section of the site, you’re presented with a disclaimer which you must agree to before entering the section of the site.

The biggest bunch of crap here is that the disclaimer states,

Vivastreet provides advertising space for adult entertainment providers, and for adults seeking adult entertainment services. Vivastreet is not an escort agency and does not play any part in the booking of any services.

How the hell can they say that they do not play any part in the booking of any services? They’re literally facilitating the connection between the escort/sex slave and the consumer. Although they are not booking the services through the site, without a doubt they’ve got something to do with it.

The Ads

If you take a look at the ads you’ll notice that most of them are either half-ass or they’re so detailed that they’re hard to believe. Oh, and even worse, I found out that MANY of the images of girls shown in the ads are ripped from places like The Chive. Take this ad shown below, for example. It’s quite possible that the person who posted this advertisement did so by ripping a photo from The Chive. They just want your email address to spam you and maybe even meet in person to rob you.

In other words, you will likely not get laid using this posted ad…

Banner Ads & Other Ads

You’ll notice that this Vivastreet site is simply trying to get you to join other dating sites which they’re advertising on the personals page. The sites they want you to join are SecretBenefits.com and 40PlusMarket.co.uk. They also display some fake messaging ad in the right sidebar. Basically, the whole page is one big fake ad.

The Escorts

I’m not even going to get into the escorts because it’s obvious that they’ve got HUGE issues going on here. I’m talking about stings, human trafficking, sex slaves, and so much more. At least that’s what I gathered after doing some researching today.

Conclusion: Stay Away From VivaStreet

Look, unless you want to end up in jail or paying for something you need not shell out for or ending up on a fake dating site, then you’re best bet is to avoid Vivastreet completely. The recent human trafficking article published is really, really, scary as it discusses a lot of illegal activity. At that point, we’re no longer talking about a simple sex dating experience but an illegal and unwanted experience between two people.

Screw all that noise. None of that nonsense is worth it and you don’t need to put yourself or others at risk today with all the fantastic dating networks out there today. Just download one of the hook up apps listed here and you’ll be golden. No need to pay the girls. They’re on the site for sex only, nothing more. Bada boom, bada bing!
