Japan Home of “compensated dating” Scam

Of course, the best way for men to avoid falling into a trap is to avoid falling in with schoolgirls or other women engaging in the practice of enjo kosai - the term translating literally as “compensated dating” that acts as a euphemism for prostitution.

But the men’s weekly says that for guys who simply can’t help themselves, there are plenty of steps that can be taken to make sure they stay safe.

“If you just want to have sex — as opposed to deliberately looking for a young girl to give it to you — avoid the underaged. Anybody advertising their services on a major matchmaking site with the claim that they’re 18 or 19 is almost certainly under age,” a man identified only as Mr. I, a self-professed expert on using young hookers, tells Spa! “And watch out for those who use a lot of picture characters and smileys in their e-mail, because that’s almost the lingua franca among teens. Make sure you insist she tells her your age and get her to mail you a message stating that she’s over 18. Guard that mail with your life.” more
