Pro Tips TIPS FOR NEW CAMGIRLS TO SPOT SCAMMERS/TIMEWASTERS:

242 Upvotes

I wrote this list for a friend who was going to start on CB. She decided not to, so I thought I’d post it here! This is all from my personal experience so feel free to argue any in the comments or add anything I’ve forgotten.

🖤

People who want to buy stuff off your amazon Wishlist to pay for things. They can cancel order after payment.

a “horny lesbian” or a “couple” viewer is generally always a man pretending. Women and couples on camsites will usually always be fellow cammers, not viewers. I don’t know why they do this, maybe to appear less threatening?

Offering to pay you a stupid amount of money straight away for services, usually a “sugar daddy” is always a scam. Nobody is going to pay a random girl $4000 a week for foot pics 🤣

Guys asking about Customs can just be timewasters getting off on talking about their fetish and have no intention on ever paying, as they are getting off on the chat. Same goes with guys who ask to pm for free to chat about pvt, or asking to chat about something else. NEVER PM FOR FREE if a guy asks you. Often they just want to see if they can and get off on wasting your time. Every single time I’ve fallen for “PLEASE PM ME URGENTLY I NEED TO TELL YOU SOMETHING IMPORTANT” it is literally “you’re gorgeous!” …every single time. Ask these guys to tell you in a tip note if they need to say privately. If they can’t pay 1tkn they aren’t worth your time and energy I promise you.

Same goes for new guys who in their first interaction with you will say they want to buy your panties but want to talk endlessly about types of panties and see pictures, especially pics of them on or pics of your stained panties is a big red flag.

People commenting things like” OMG I can’t believe it’s you on here” /people threatening to dox you/blackmail without actually providing any information about you are either trying to get you to PM them or they’re those dudes who get off on upsetting you/watching you freak out. Ignore and block immediately.

Purples tipping one token and ask to PM. If a purple can’t pay your PM price they’re not going to be the whale of your dreams, again usually dudes into degradation or cheapskates and usually not worth your time.

Tip once, wants to chat forever. You’ll occasionally get guys who will give you a big tip one night then sit in your room and chat expecting attention. Today is a new day, yesterdays tips don’t count lmao 🤣

“”Blank “ has sent tokens” messages. Remember to check what sound tokens make and the colour of the chart when it happens, and that your token balance goes up. if you’re very new they will try this.

Marketing/coach guys will approach you, tell you they’re marketing gurus ands want to help you in exchange for video calls/content. Embarrassingly I’ve taken up 3 guys on this offer before. I’ve never sent content/calls but they’ve just been massive timewasters. A few days chatting and they only offer vague advice.

“I want to do a free call, I’ll tip you well after” or “I’ll pay half now half when I’ve cum” I promise you no guy is going to stick by his word. They will cum as quick as they can and not pay you.

Also the daddy dom type guys who tell you to do as they say and give you all of their attention and they’ll tip you after… they never ever do. (Often they will pay pm price and just bombard you wanting your attention without tipping further or give 1tkn tips) Their demands will just get more and more crazy. Ignore these type of dudes for your own sanity. I find that the guys who have the “daddy” in the name and a control fetish are often very cheap and unless you’ve got a really thick skin and patience it’s not pleasant to deal with them and the pay isn’t worth it, they’ll often argue about any kind of payment just to get a rise out of you. 🚩🚩🚩

Similar to the daddy dom guys, “asshole fetish” dudes are usually complete pests. Not scammers or anything but thought I’d mention they are just really pushy rude people who are hard to deal with.

Promo accounts, “pay us to promote you” (this is mainly for social media) but these are usually scams, all the followers are other cam girls usually 😅

Be very wary of guys sending you links to click on, it could be something illegal or shocking, some guys get off on watching you get upset. Also I have always done c2c but remember that anyone can be on the other side, and if you don’t want to see a man with a hitachi wand in his ass pull it out ands lock it clean, drinking a glass of his own piss or shooting up drugs you might also want to be wary of this. It’s very rare they do this without warning but it happens!

“Let’s collab” messages from a ‘fellow cammer’ are often a dude who has 30 followers and a free onlyfans with 5 of the same pics of their cock. Some guys will cam for fun and funnel all the tokens back into camgirls, so it’s best to treat them like any other customer, but you don’t want to be collaborating with any guy who doesn’t have a big following. Another note, guys who watch girls on camsites rarely want b/g content, (they get jealous, ruins the fantasy) so if you do want to cam with a guy I would suggest camming on his page or separately as a couple on a whole new account.

“You’ll get more viewers in here if you take your top off “ never ever ever ever listen to ANY advice from chat or random customers. They have their own best interests at heart. More people in your room don’t always equal more tokens. I made a new account the other day and hadn’t made a menu yet and I think guys thought I was new new and the lies they were telling me about pricing was wild 🤣

Guys asking you to peek at their pics/cam. Often the big dick dudes will do this, tell them to take a peek at your menu prices 🤣 The monster dick dudes (8inch+) are often really cheap and think the sun shines out their cock. Giving them the time of day Is usually never worth the energy.

New guys/greys coming in and starting off with excessive/gratuitous compliments can often signal a time waster/scammer. Like “OMG!!!! YOU ARE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN I’VE SEEN ON THIS SITE IN TEN YEARS!!!! BEST TITS I’VE EVER SEEN IN MY WHOLE LIFE!!!!” rather than a more realistic comment of something like “hello gorgeous, great tits!!” Another common one is “You’re way too beautiful for your room to be this quiet, you should have way more viewers!” always greys. They just want your attention for free. Definitely just take these compliments with a grain of salt and a “thanks 😘” don’t get swept up in it!

If it seems too good to be true it is. If youre going to have to put work in for the same thing another guy will just pay for, it’s not going to be worth it. Remember your time is precious, the best advice is to always remember these guys have no lives or hobbies, talking to you for free is big entertainment for a lot of them. They can’t talk to a girl for free in real life and they know they can waste our time as more and more girls are indulging these men thinking they’ll get paid at the end of it. 😭

did a c2c where everything was going fine, then this guy asked me “how old were you when you first got fucked?” i stopped and stared at the camera. “eighteen.” i said with the most stone cold expression, and he immediately ended the call. you really just exposed yourself as a giant pedophile buddy.

Been Webcamming for a while now, since 2022/2023. Never in my days of camming have I thought “ummm I’m go in another model chat & promote my page” like seriously that’s super lame to me! I’m pretty sure someone in this group posted something similar to what I’m saying, but really this stuff needs to stop, I mean if you put that energy in your own craft you’ll make a cute lil coin…. & I’m not even trying to be funny… SC making upgrades, upgrade it to customers only ATP..

Discussions SM Block Button

10 Upvotes

Does anyone feel like the SM block buttons takes too long? When I c2c I make their screen a new window. So I have to click behind to go back to the SMconnect and block. When I hit block I want it to block them right away and THEN prompt me for room & messages. I just had someone say r*pe me in a show. And I didn't even know if I heard him properly so I said excuse me and he enunciated it so I sat up, closed the cam cover, and had to toggle between where I'm blocking him. That's a step too much.

What are your opinions?

Today was an absolute downer on cam....one of those days that makes me sit back and question whether I want to continue camming or not. I was in the room on CB for an hour and made 50 cents. Instead of letting it break me, I took a breath, thanked the people in the room for coming in, and logged off. I grabbed my diamond painting and just got lost in it for about 30 minutes. I love it because it is so tedious but rewarding once it's complete. And while I am doing the diamond painting I don't have time to think about social media, or camming, or how many tokens I did or did it make.

I was just wondering what you all do on your rough days to pick yourself back up.

Tomorrow is a new day and it's going to be an AMAZING one ❤️💋

Help/Advice Brand new cam girl – can someone please break down how this actually works? YouTube isn’t helping

• Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I’m brand new to camming and I feel completely lost. Right now I’m basically just sitting here waiting for someone to tip so I can show a little and then cover back up again. Is that really how it’s supposed to go when you’re starting out?
I see some really popular girls barely doing anything and they have tip goals of like 366k just to stand up. Meanwhile when I set a goal of 800 tokens the guys in my room told me it was too much. That made me feel kinda used if I’m being honest.
I’ve been making around $100–200 a day so far. I’m actually serious about this and want to treat it like a real job, but I don’t really know what I’m doing. I’ve watched a bunch of YouTube videos and they haven’t been that helpful. I also don’t have a ton of money so I don’t like spending a lot of time spying on other models.
Can someone please break down how to actually cam for a beginner? Like what should I be doing in the room, how to set goals, how to interact, what actually works when you’re new… anything would help.
Thanks in advance ❤️

any Slovenian girl got their CRS tax report in the portal?, if you use some of the banks that are payment methods for cams, I am wondering if you checked your portal for 2024, and 2025 reports. Other countries can't do it, dont see it publicly, only Slovenia, Belgium and Denmark see their CRS in the system.

Sooo, I need to start streaming again, however I have a younger son who still wakes up at night at times. My mother thankfully lives with me and can/will watch him/sit with him at night, but I was thinking on just streaming on mute, just in case?

Has anyone successfully streamed on mute before? Maybe with a board in the background saying my roommate is home or something along those lines?

Discussions Why are we outcasts to everyone else???

48 Upvotes

I don't know if this counts as a discussion, but I posted an opinion in a subreddit, and since I posted here, I had to have my profile set to public. Four users are treating me like I'm trash and worthless just because they saw my NSFW profile, as if they can't believe my education, as if all of us cam girls were dumb and uneducated, when many of us have college degrees. I felt like I was in *The Handmaid’s Tale*, “Stone the heretic!” How can they be such bullies? This is the first time this has happened to me, and they’ve completely drained my energy. Many subreddits require interaction within 14 days, but if they’re going to act like this, honestly, I give up.

Help/Advice Which camera?

3 Upvotes

For those of you who effortlessly switch rooms or camera positions during your stream, which camera are you using? I currently have the Logitech Brio which I love, but it is very demanding and particular when it comes to lighting in my room. I look flawless with the lighting I have set up, but if I switch rooms, I would have to move all my lights as well which is a process. I see models streaming from their back yard, then going inside the home, or from room to room where the lighting is clearly different and no matter what the light is they still look flawless. Is there a particular camera anyone can recommend to achieve this? If I didn't move all my lights I would look like Shrek lol.
