I met my 2nd escort using this site. This is a good alternative to smooci when looking for escorts since smooci is only available to a few cities.
For those getting scammed, learn how to use the F*in internet!
DON'T give out credit card numbers.
DON'T PAY
DON'T subscribe to "dating sites" full of bots.
Only use this when meeting locally and near you, it has an option to search only for ads within x kilometers near you.
Meet face to face, pay with CASH, right before or after.
Pro tip: video call first before meeting to verify looks and body.
This site is just like any other buy and sell website, ebay or craig's list, but a bit better and allows escorts, which is probably why it's popular.
Again, learn to use your brains and stop rating sites badly just because of your own stupidity!
I have been using Locanto for a long time and I am the oldest member of Locanto. So I want to give rating point to my ID now, so please give me rating point quickly.
I have been working on rebuilding my credit for about the last 18 months but really focused since around July/August. My credit has dipped as low as 530 and currently I'm at around 480. Last year in September I got a secured Discover card with a $500 limit. I use it regularly for gas and pay it off week to week carrying a very small balance. Today I logged into my app to schedule a payment and found they had converted me to a non secured card and downed my credit limit to $300. I was surprise how did this happened to me so I called to confirm they told me it was due to misinformation on my credit report I went to sort out how to get my credit fixed then I came across hacknet567 AT gmail DOT com/ *******437 he wiped out the negatives entries Tax liens DMV car loan and boost my score to 805 and raised my credit limit to $2500 within a couple of days I know this is small to some but for me this feels like such a huge milestone. Give him a try now and see the outcome.
*******226 and *******983 both are fraud and they have account in Locanto they cheat people by taking money to account.
Many innocent might have lost money as they say bodymassage will be given at our place and they ask money to be deposited *******129 by Google pay or phone pay and cheat.
Beware of this people, cyber crime must take action on this people,
If you're a man looking for a woman, you're probably wasting your time. Most of the "women" on the site are either bots or scammers. Plenty of gay men looking to suck and $#*!, though.
Even worse than the typical online dating site! Obvious scammers with contacts way beyond the area you specify and many photos obviously NOT belonging to the supposed member. Site is difficult to navigate and the fees are ridiculous considering all the above. I'll offer just one word: "DON'T!"
All fraud. All man brokers created name of ladies and advertising. Steal pics of models from internet and send some $#*!ing $#*!.
Don't waste money who are asking for payment in WhatsApp through paytm and others
I just wrote a review I forgot to mention with all the nickel and dime charges they don't even let you use what you pay for every day you have a limit most of the ones you see are thousands of miles away you might as well throw your money down the incinerator
I was the ONLY INTERNATIONAL COVER MODEL and Representative for LOCANTO CLASSIFIEDS for 5 years. I INSISTED that they CLEAN UP their act. I was ignored; and eventually LEFT on December 31st/2021.
I am SPECTRE'. Please IGNORE that site. It was CONVICTED of ILLICIT ACTIVITIES. Thank you. P.S.: Boo!
Locanto is fake as $#*!, numbers are fake and the pics are all copy pasted from escort sites if you wanna girl get one from a decent night club not one of these fake sites
If your a whale this not for you bud looks like its run by petty crooks who cant afford to setup a real night club pass
IF you get a response from any women it will be a working girl, which is fine but should be in Escorts ads, OR from someone referring you to a site " for their safety" which is a scam for credit card details OR links to more dodgy dating sites. Some other sections appear legit but personals are not vetted or policed for scams or criminal activity which is a shame as they started with such great potential. Please be warned there are NO legitimate safe ID sites.
Think about it. A credit card shows you're over 18 not whether you're a rapist or axe murderer! It's just another phishing exercise! You're better off sorting through the fake profiles that manage to get in to even the best rated dating app. Or if you want to avoid all the hassle, visit an escort or a good private operator, get exactly what you want and go home smiling. Beats blocking and renewing credit cards and much disappointment.
99% of the women are scammers trying to get prepaid for hookups they're continually block and then they come back as a another girl it's and overall scam there are real people there but very few to hook up with cuz there's so many scams
I was looking in Personals. I sent out about 30 replies to ads. Not one single reply. Everyone wants you to text them. I did for several people. 5 Contacted me back. 3 wanted me to put my credit card info into a fake, unsecure site "for their safety". 1 wanted a $100 iTunes card up front to meet with me. 1 sent me to an address that was a closed business which was supposedly her address.
So every reply I have gotten from anyone on Locanto has been garbage designed to cheat me! What a horrible waste!
I got scammed. I was convinced as per her words in Whatsapp. Later, when I transfer the money to her bank, she ran away without responding to my chat. She didn't give service, rather I was cheated. The sad part - I transferred the money twice (She says her Paytm isn't working and has problems). Don't believe this application and their advertisements. These are full of scammers, who wants to steal your money for their survival.
I am not attaching any material as that will take more time for me!
Being a paid advertiser in the Personals section for many years I know what i'm talking about. Since the closure of craigslist locanto have gotten greedy. Prices for posting have gone up a 7 day paid advert is seen for 1 or 2 days then is buried deep and no more views or responses. They now want you to pay again to move your ad to the top after 2 days. WTF you guys need to change how you do things. So many fake ads and they do nothing about it.
There is seemingly no point in looking at, posting, or responding to ads on Locanto as the site is filled with fake ads and scammers (like so many others have said). The whole thing just feels hollow and lifeless as if it were some abandoned early 2000s site lost to time.
To anyone that uses this site Please be aware that this site is used for the purpose of hookers and scams one of the biggest scams I got was 2 days ago someone claiming to be a police officer and he sent me over to his police chief. Long story short they wanted me to pay $2,000 for a legal case against me to go away and this was about a missing girl. Guys don't fall for this because the police are not going to demand you to pay money about a missing girl they will just come to your door knock it down and arrest you straight up. Anyways I hope this is helpful for people looking for information on this site why this site has not been shut down yet is beyond me say away
Half the people on there are scammers. You report them and nothing happens. Same ad posted in 21 different towns 1000's km apart. Then you post one legit ad and it gets reported and they delete you.but the scammers ads all still there.
Locanto blocked my ads in there respective pages, despite my writing locanto twice i got no response. They are just bad i suggest going with another site for w/e your needs are thats what i did and it worked out... Despite my efforts trying to fix my problem with them. They are very unresponsive to anyone.
This is probably the WORST FREE SITE on the Internet for attempting to meet a person, or find a good/service. I am not sure who runs it, or from where, but after seeing what they offer for free, I sure as hell would NOT "subscribe" to ANY of its features. Even the "people-free" version of Craigslist is a "Step up" to this pathetic site!
Answer: It's not safe! It's overloaded with scammers. There are better platforms like http://AdultsFinder.club If you're looking for a one night stand or a fling it really works like a charm and it doesn't cost a lot. Don't even think of purchasing Locanto premium membership. Basically there is no difference from a free one. Both are useless. There may be a dozen of ads posted by genuine people on Locanto but the rest is scam and spam.
Answer: YES. However; It is not a typical "TRAP". It is likely a SCAM. IF I ask you to SEND ME a bazillion dollars... and you DO; then DON'T worry about me. I will be vacationing in Hawaii! But NO reply for YOU! Finders keepers; losers weepers!
Answer: Whoops! That advertisement will STILL be listed ss "PENDING" forever! Why? Because they DON'T do the regular CLASSIFIEDS anymore. Just DATING. Guess they simply FORGOT to MENTION the fact that their APPLICATION doesn't FUNCTION anymore. DETAILS, DETAILS! Who needs a FUNCTIONING application anyways? SEE why I resigned; as their OFFICIAL INTERNATIONAL COVER MODEL? Why? *TRUTH MATTERS!* SPECTRE' strikes again! LOVE ya'!
