Subject: Scam and Coercion – Demanded Money Without Providing Service Company/Individual: Unknown individual (met online, claimed to provide private services) Date of Incident: November 4, 2025 Amount Paid: $100 (cashapp) Mike Taylor Description of What Happened: I agreed to pay $100 for a private encounter. When the individual arrived at my apartment, he immediately demanded the money before anything occurred. He became aggressive, raised his voice, and even called someone on the phone, loudly saying they should come to my apartment. This behavior felt threatening and coercive. To protect myself and de-escalate the situation, I gave him the money. He took it and left without providing any service. I believe this was a scam designed to intimidate me into handing over cash. Actions Taken: I paid under duress to avoid escalation. I documented the incident (date, time, description, phone call). I am reporting this to the BBB to warn others and to request investigation. Desired Resolution: Public record of this scam to protect other consumers. Investigation into this individual’s practices. Accountability for coercion and intimidation.
