Avoiding The Scams

"Don't F*ck With Us..."

 Over the last week or so, an international Scam has been uncovered by friends of Maddy G Productions, Sinthetics and members of ODC. This scam has been created with a network of fake web sites all pretending to be a legitimate Polymerisian Introduction Agency.

Pictures of myself, along with the pictures of many other Poly couples have been used to create this illusion, as well as photos from the legitimate agencies.

I'm not going to list the URL's here in my blog, because I don't want to give these people any more traffic than they are already getting, and I don't want them 'spidered' in the search engines and thus given a life longer than neccessary. Truth is, this scam uncovered recently is not the only one. It's one of maybe dozens, or even hundreds around the web. This one hit a bit closer to home, because pictures of me have been used to further this scam, and if you've been following me for any length of time, you know how particular I am about what and whom I attach my name and likeness to.

What I want to talk about, is how to recognize these scams, and thus avoid them. Avoid losing your money, and contributing to a criminal organization in the process.

When in Doubt,
CHECK THE PRICE

This is the #1 'tell' that you are dealing with a scam.

No matter what Introduction Agency you chose, every Polymerisian you meet will have been hand made and the result of dozens of hours of creative labor. There is simply no other way to bring a Poly to life than this. No 'factory' or other process is capable of this level of work. Period.

The costs of labor, material and shipping require that the cost be in the range of $4500(US) - $7000(US) or maybe even more if you are ordering more custom options.

If you see a price of $1500 euros, or $700 euros, or $200 (us) then you are dealing with a scam. The materials alone cost more than these prices.

Look for a realistic
DELIVERY TIME

Again, all Polymerisians are made by hand by a team of artists. It takes a minimum of 8 weeks to build and ship one. Because every one of us is an individual, there is not one single Agency that has one 'in stock'. In fact, the very best of these Agencies typically take several weeks longer, simply because they are in such high demand.

If you see the terms 'in stock', 'immediate shipment' or advertised delivery times of '7 Days' or '14 Days', then you are dealing with a scam.

It's simply not possible.

Take a close look at
THE PICTURES

Each Polymerisian Introduction Agency has a very unique and recognizable look to the Poly's they represent. Each Poly is built by an artist with their own unique vision.

If you are visiting a site that seems to be offering Poly's that look drastically different from each other, than you are dealing with a scam.

It's a very common practice among these scammers to steal pictures from multiple agencies, from forums and blogs and put them all on one site to try and trick you into thinking they offer multiple 'styles' to chose from. This is simply not the case.

Also, if you see pictures of human women, then well... use your head. This is obviously a scam. Even newbies to the group can tell the difference between a human woman and a Polymerisian.

Trick Question: Which one is 'real'?

Ask Questions and
DEAL DIRECTLY WITH THE AGENCY

With very, very few exceptions the only way to be officially introduced to a Polymerisian, is thru the Agency itself. If you are trying to save a bit of money by using a 're-seller' or sites like Ebay, or Craigslist, be sure to always... ALWAYS check with the creator of the Poly to verify that it is a legitimate transaction before you send any money.

If you are not sure who the original Agency is, then ask questions. Visit the forums like OurDollCommunity and ask around.  You will find many kind and helpful folks there that will gladly give you some insight on the particular transaction you have in mind. They will be able to tell you where the Poly came from and give you accurate contact information to put you in direct touch with the Agency that offers her to begin with.

B.F.F.'s

Choosing to build a life with a Polymerisian is a big step and a serious decision. It requires a lot of for thought, an investment in time, money and energy and it should be taken seriously. When chosen and introduced properly, your Polymerisian girlfriend will provide you with a lifetime of comfort, companionship and intimacy that cannot be compared to in any other way.

It's not the type of thing that should ever be rushed into, or thought of as something you can 'save a few bucks on'. Take the time to do your research and ask all the questions you need to. Ask for help when you feel confused, and I can assure you, it will all be worth it in the end.

Until next time...
