How to Verify You're Speaking to the Real Agency

Impersonation of legitimate escort agencies is a real problem.

Fraudulent websites, copied social media profiles and spoofed phone numbers can make it difficult to know who you are speaking to.

Three things confirm you are talking to the real Very High End, and checking them takes about two minutes. Our web address is very-highend.com. Our phone number is 07003 497700.

Below are the details to check against, the questions we will and will not ask you, and what to do if you have already sent money or information to someone other than us.

If you do only one thing, do this. Never continue a conversation that came to you. Open a browser, type our address in yourself, and start again.

The details to check

Web address: very-highend.com. Hyphenated, and .com.
Phone: 07003 497700
Email: [email protected]
Rate: bookings start at £500 per hour
Office: Hamilton Place, Park Lane, Mayfair, London W1J 7DR
Hours: seven days a week, 8am to 1am

Read the web address character by character. Near-miss domains or email addresses that look almost identical are the most common tactics used by scammers.

Check the rate, which almost nobody thinks to do. If you are quoted £150, that is not a discount. That is somebody telling you they are not us.

And check the clock. There is nobody here at four in the morning, so a random message from us at four in the morning is not from us.

What we ask you for

When you enquire, we ask for:

a preferred name, or just your initials. We do not need to share your legal name
a mobile number
the date, and how long you would like
whether you want an incall or an outcall f
or an outcall, the address of the hotel or residence

Every new client is screened before a booking is accepted. In most cases that means a verified contact number and a deposit, and nothing more. Identity documents are not part of our screening process. Screening also runs in the other direction: our companions are verified to the same standard and met in person before they join us. Our staff sign NDAs and we operate under GDPR.

Most guides get this backwards. It is not true that a real agency never asks for documents. We sometimes do. Any rule telling you otherwise makes you easier to defraud, because the first thing an impersonator does is exploit whatever you have been taught to expect. What matters is not whether you are asked. It is who is asking, and how they reached you. The full details of what a genuine agency needs from you are published separately.

What we will never ask you for

We will never ask you for:

payment in cryptocurrency unless you want to
a deposit, if you are an established client booking in London
money before a booking has been discussed and agreed
your bank login, your card PIN, or card details sent over a message
anything at all, in a message you did not start (no random communication)

If you have been asked for any of those, you are not talking to us.

The deposit question

We ask for a deposit in two situations, and only two. When you are new to us. And when the booking is outside London.

A real deposit request comes after a booking has been discussed and agreed upon, through our ordinary booking process, and it never arrives with a countdown attached. We take bank transfer, cash, card, or a trusted merchant gateway. Your card statement will not carry our name. Deposits are usually non-refundable, though we can often roll one over if you give us notice. How deposits and payments work is set out in full separately.

Other things worth knowing

We never message you first. Anything arriving out of nowhere, on any platform, did not come from us
We have no second accounts. One website, one number, one email, and the live chat on this site. An unofficial WhatsApp line only shared privately, no backup booking profile
We do not use middlemen. Our own team handles every booking
We will not rush you. Short-notice bookings happen often and we take them gladly, but the urgency comes from you, never from us

And if a gallery was sent to you rather than found by you, run one of the images through a reverse image search. Cloned galleries are the cheapest part of any fraud and the easiest to catch. If any of this sounds like a conversation you have already had, the wider set of warning signs is worth reading.

If you have already sent something

Call your bank now. In the UK you can dial 159, which reaches the fraud team at more than 99% of retail banks and cannot be spoofed. Your chance of recalling a transfer falls sharply within the first few hours.

If you send information rather than money, work out what it could realistically be used for and assume that it will be. Then report it to Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040, the national reporting centre for fraud.

And tell us, on 07003 497700. Not because you have anything to be embarrassed about, but because we cannot warn the next person until somebody tells us it is happening.

Still not sure? Call us

Ring 07003 497700 and ask whether the conversation you have been having is real. You do not need to explain yourself. It takes under a minute, and we hear the question regularly, usually from our most experienced clients.

Impersonation runs on your reluctance to look paranoid. So look paranoid.
