Organizations that scrape advertising for sex workers.
These websites are scraping sex work ads and phone numbers, mostly from Backpage. They then reuse ads, pictures, and phone numbers without permission, to sell advertising directly on their website. They also make money from affiliate links and pop-ups that push visitors to membership sites.
They often show a full history of ads using the same phone number, and some also try to link ads to review pages, such as at TER. Most try to reconstruct the phone number when it has been made harder to search in the original ad. They get most of their web traffic from clients performing Google searches of phone numbers found on Backpage.
