An independent escort has contacted me to say that on her first visit to Limerick last month she had problems with a menacing man phoning her and telling her she was not welcome. She has just toured Limerick again and this man was very abusive and threatening to her this time around. He first attempted to make an appointment, but the escort of course refused. He then claimed he had already made an appointment using a different name / number and he knew exactly where the escort was located and proceeded to start threatening the lady that he would around to rob and beat her later. The abusive and threatening phone calls and text messages were very nasty and went on around the clock whilst she was touring Limerick. This man appears to target touring ladies and he may have a connection to an escort agency in Limerick. He has recently been using the number 087 94674** (last 2 digits removed for privacy reasons) so please watch out for him if you are working in Limerick as he may well be dangerous. Thank you to the lady who reported this matter.

An escort working in the IFSC in Dublin was raped last month, when she opened the door of her apartment to a potential client, but was rushed by the two men. The terrified woman was then attacked by both men and left badly beaten before they robbed her and left. This assault was extremely brutal and she was lucky to have survived. She had been working with a friend in the apartment for a number of months and had built up a regular clientele. It has been suggested that one or both of the men - who appeared to know how to gain access to the apartment - may have been former clients of the lady or her friend. One of the attackers was Irish, whilst the other was a foreign national. This information has been made public today by the Independent newspaper.

Ladies please be warned a man in Dublin using the name Darren Ling and the phone number 087 6****68 recently ripped a lady from the UK off, by having her travel to Dublin to spend 3 days with him and then not paying her.

There have been two separate robberies in Dublin in the last 2 weeks so please be careful everyone. In the first robbery, a female Dublin escort working alone was robbed and assaulted by two men. All her money was taken and she was left bruised by the attack. The first robber was skinny, with a baldhead, 5'8”. The second had dark hair and was average build and 5’6” tall. They were both in their late 20s and spoke with Dublin accents. In the second robbery, again it was a female independent escort in Dublin working alone attacked by two males. The first guy was in his early 20s, with dark dirty blond hair and stubble. The second guy was skinny with brown hair. He looked as if he was on drugs and spoke with a very effeminate voice. Both had Dublin accents. These robbers used the name Paul and the phone number 086 88237** to make an appointment with the escort. (Last 2 digits of number not shown for legal reasons, but full phone number is available to working ladies only on request.) It may be the case that these are the same robbers warned about earlier in the month only now they have widened their target pool to include ladies with no connection to the website they are fighting over.

A number of escorts in Dublin have recently been the victims of robberies / attempted robberies. The robbers are 2 or in some cases 3 males working together. It has been suggested that this is the result of infighting within a gang that runs a well-known Irish escort website and only escorts listed on that website are being targeted, but all escorts should be vigilant as this kind of gang war can easily spread to those not in anyway connected.
