7 Sugar Daddy Scams You Need to Know Before It's Too Late

Sugar dating is on the rise. And so are sugar daddy scams.

As more and more sugar daddy websites and apps come on the market, there are new potential daddies and babies joining every day. And that’s great since it means more candidates to choose from but the downside? The popularity of sugar websites also attracts some unsavory characters.

Yup, we’re talking about sugar daddy scammers.

The first thing you need to know as a sugar baby is how to spot the signs of a sugar daddy scam quickly so you can continue your search for a genuine sugar daddy unscathed.

7 Most Popular Sugar Daddy Scams

We’re going to show you the most popular sugar daddy scams operating today and exactly how they work, the signs to look for, and how to do a sugar daddy scam check so you never fall prey to these hucksters.

Let’s dive in.

Sugar Daddy Asking Me to Buy Gift Cards

We get so many questions that are a variation of the question: “I’ve got a sugar daddy asking me to buy gift cards. Is this a scam?”

Yup. It is a very popular sugar daddy scam, in fact.

Here’s how this sugar daddy scam works. A scammer will ask you to purchase them a gift card or gift cards. Common ones are Amazon or iTunes. They will offer you a multitude of stories on why you need to buy them these gift cards with the promise to pay you back.

The scammer will then ask you to send him pictures of the barcode and pin, drain the money out of the gift cards, and stop communicating with you altogether.

Since it’s a gift card, you won’t be able to get your money back. This is a very common scam that you should always watch out for. If he needs gift cards, he can buy them himself. No excuses!

Sugar Daddy Wants Me to Deposit a Check

A sugar daddy wants to send you a large check. All you have to do is deposit it…and then send just a little bit of the overall amount. The rest you can keep all for yourself.

Sounds super good, right? Not quite. There’s good reason why this is one of the most popular sugar daddy scams.

sugar daddy scam check

Here’s how this sugar daddy scam works. You deposit the large check that the sugar daddy sent you into your bank account. Your bank trusts you so it clears the check and you get access to the funds pretty quickly.

You’re excited because there’s money in your account! The sugar daddy wasn’t lying! Well, now comes the part where the sugar daddy asks you to use some of the money deposited into your account.

Scammers will make up different stories to get the maximum amount of money sent possible. They’re buying jewelry for their coworkers, they’re throwing a surprise party with an extravagant budget, or they’re just promising that you can have a cut of the money if you deposit the check for them.

Never deposit a check for your sugar daddy. Because in a couple days, the bank will discover that the check is no good. And once the check bounces, you will be left holding the tab for all the money you sent him.

Sugar Daddy Wants Me to Get a Prepaid Card

So a sugar daddy wants you to get a prepaid card, huh? Welcome to another popular sugar daddy scam.

There are many variations to the type of card they’ll ask you to get. Wells Fargo has one, Chase has it, the Vanilla Card is popular and there are many other banks that offer something similar. The idea is that your sugar daddy will deposit your allowance straight into the card

At first, it sounds safe because has no access to your bank or other personal information. But it’s one of the most popular sugar daddy scams for good reason.

sugar daddy wants me to get a prepaid card

Here’s how this sugar daddy scam works. A sugar daddy asks that you purchase a prepaid card so that he can deposit your allowance. To do so, he needs the card details. So you fork over the money to load and activate the prepaid card and the sugar daddy scammer uses the details you provided to drain it.

Another variation is similar to the check scam. Except in this case, it’s with a reloadable prepaid card instead of your bank account. Again, to deposit money, the scammer might ask for some information on the card, using your allowance as an excuse. How it works is that they send you a check of a high sum, but the check is fake.

Once it’s deposited into your prepaid card, with the right information, the scammer can withdraw all that money at an ATM. A few days later, the check will bounce and the bank will call you — because now you owe the bank all the money that was on that check.

Not only are cards like these uninsured (meaning there’s no way you’ll get your money back), but by then, the scammer will have blocked you and ran off with your money.

Sugar Daddy Asking for Bank Info

Got a sugar daddy asking for bank info so he can share his riches with you? The only thing you need to do is block and report. Because someone asking for your bank info should set off every red flag.

sugar daddy scammer

That’s obvious when you’re asked for your bank login details. Nobody needs that information. You already know that bank login information is to never be given out. You wouldn’t share that with your co-workers. Or friends. Not even your mama. So why would you give bank login details to a total stranger you’ve never met?

You wouldn’t.  But this applies to your bank account number as well, especially if you have never met the potential sugar daddy. Why?

Here’s how this sugar daddy scam works. In Europe, it may be okay. But in the US, there’s little security for bank drafts. Armed with your bank account routing numbers, scammers can withdraw money from your account without your authorization and even buy stuff online with demand drafts.

Don’t risk it. With modern technology like Paypal, Venmo, and even Chase QuickPay, why would he need your bank account information? He doesn’t. In fact, nobody does. You only need an email to send money securely.

Sugar Daddy PayPal Scam

Just because using an email to receive money protects your bank info, that doesn’t mean it’s always safe. Because unfortunately, there are is a very popular sugar daddy PayPal scam that many sugar babies still fall for.

Here’s how this sugar daddy scam works. A potential sugar daddy will send you a screenshot of a pending PayPal transfer to your account. But of course, this large amount will only be fully released once you pay a small fee in advance. Once you pay the fee, the allowance that was incoming never materializes.

Sugar Daddy Wants Me to Open a New Bank Account

You’re understandably wary about giving a potential sugar daddy your bank account information. It’s personal, you’ve got your savings in there, you don’t want to risk anything.

The sugar daddy understands. He suggests you open a new bank account. You won’t have any money in there – except for the money he’s soon to send you! So there’s no risk, right?

Here’s how this sugar daddy scam works. The new bank account could be used to pull the good old “deposit a check for me and send me some of the money” scam.

Or it could get even more nefarious.

Sugar daddy scammers can use this new bank account – made in your name, under your identity – to do fraudulent things. They could apply for credit lines, take out multiple credit cards, and even use the new bank account to engage in money laundering.

Not only could that land you in financial trouble, but you could be held legally liable.

Sugar Daddy Gave Me His Bank Information

Wow. A potential sugar daddy you’ve never even met has openly shared his bank information with you. Didn’t ask you for your bank info. Never asked you to open a new account.

He’s simply given you full, unfettered access to his own bank information. He’s a keeper, right?

Not quite. The secret to this scam is this: that’s not his bank information. It belongs to some other poor victim who you’ll be stealing from if you participate.

Here’s how this sugar daddy scam works. The sugar daddy scammer gets his hands on someone’s bank info. He can’t directly move the funds because then he’d get caught.

So he needs you to do it for him instead. To gain your trust, he’ll let you buy something with this bank account. Or even pay off your debt.

Once that’s done and you trust him, he will then ask you to buy a gift card or something untraceable for himself.

When the real owner of the bank account discovers the missing money from their account and reports it to their bank, the bank will be able to trace the illegal activity to you. And guess who’ll be left holding the financial and legal tab? Yes, you.

How Sugar Daddy Scams Work

There are many different types of sugar daddy scams. But they all share a couple things in common. Here are 3 telltale signs of a sugar daddy scam.

#1. He Doesn’t Want to Meet

One of the hallmark signs of a sugar daddy scammer is that they will not want to meet. They’ll have endless excuses for why they can’t meet up with you.

He is extremely busy jet-setting around the world. His business commitments require him to stay in so-and-so faraway country. And so on.

In fact, he’ll refuse any sort of face-to-face – even a video call. Instead, he’ll only want to DM you.

Of course, this is because he isn’t who he claims to be and he doesn’t want you to find out.

So if a potential sugar daddy refuses to meet and won’t even jump on a quick FaceTime with you – the chances are very good that he is a sugar daddy scammer.

#2. Money Talks

Another obvious sign of a sugar daddy scammer is that he will often bring up the topic of money right away. Which a genuine sugar daddy is unlikely to do.

The first chat or phone conversation is just the initial phase of getting to know each other. So a genuine sugar daddy will be doing just that: getting to know you.

He may ask what you’re looking for and describe a little about what he would like. But he’s not going to just come right out and say: “I’ll give you $x,xxx twice a month to be my sugar baby” during the first phone conversation.

If a potential sugar daddy starts making big promises and talking about how he’s going to take care of you straight away – be very wary. This is a classic sign of a sugar daddy scam.

#3. You Give First

Last but not least, this is a surefire sign of a sugar daddy scam: if you need to pay or do something first in order to receive any benefits.

A legit sugar daddy will:

  • Not ask you to buy anything to “prove” yourself
  • Pay the required fees to send you money or gifts
  • Not need you to send money from your account
  • Be able to send money from “his” account
  • Be able to make financial transactions of any other sort

And he definitely won’t need you to provide sensitive, personal security info.

How to Do a Sugar Daddy Scam Check

When you’re desperate for money and a potential sugar daddy is promising you the world, it can be very tempting to believe him. Even if your gut is telling you that something is wrong.

Even when this article has explained exactly how the scam works.

If you really want to find out for yourself, here are a couple things you can do to get to the bottom of things:

  • Reverse image check. Do a reverse image check on Google or Social Catfish using the potential sugar daddy scammer’s profile picture to find out if it belongs to an actual person.
  • Use his words. Most scammers copy and paste the same message to potential victims. Just copy and paste his message into Google to see how many other people got the same message.

Seriously, there is no good reason for him to have access to that information. Do not give it to him. And we also recommend you give this article a read, it goes over what personal information you should give to a POT.

      • I met a sugar daddy today who asked me about where I am from and I told him where I was from. Then he went a head and asked me where my parents were from and when I said that I don’t feel comfortable saying that, he went and blocked me immediately.
        Why was that?! Why did he block me after saying I didn’t feel comfortable telling him where my parents where from like I did something wrong? Was he even supposed to ask me where my parents were from wasn’t that question too personal? Wasn’t he trying to trick me into scamming me because who knows what his next question was going to be?

    • Do not give him that information. Tell his account officer to put u on his payroll and give him your account number but if you give him your username and password he can easily deposit fraudulent checks and that will make you look like the fraud instead of the victim.

    • If you want him to put money then it should be in those gift cards. You can give him your paypal or tell him to venmo. To be honest, that is a salty daddy (fake). He is scamming. No one needs your full account to put in money.

  3. Is it okay to open a bank account with a separate bank and then give him the account info so he can deposit money into an empty account? It says he has deposited 2,000 into this separate account but it is still too early for it to clear yet, is there a way this could backfire that I didn’t see? He wouldn’t be able to withdrawal without my bank card or cash a check as me.

  4. So I have a question. I have a potential ST asking for my bank account info so he can deposit the money. I however only have a prepaid card and use PayPal. He says he doesn’t have PayPal. Should I just pass this one up?

  5. I just started with this whole sugar baby , I’m talking to this guy who says he live in California but is vacationing in turkey for 4 weeks he said he want to give me a weekly allowance which I was happy about then he said he contacted his account officer who inform him he had reach his spending funds but his charity acct was still available he then told me he was going to wire me money to keep a small amount for myself and the rest I need to give it to the orphanage. I was unsure if to feel unease since he only ask me for my email and my full name to wire me the money. He ask me to call me bank and enable my online acct. I did. The money is deposit in my acct but it won’t be posted till tomorrow.he said he need me to contact the orphanage manger so I can send him the money by Walmart. I’m super confused if this is a scan or not idk what to do . I’m kinda scared I just want to return the money back since it a big amount ….

      • GIRLS DO NOT DO THIS. THIS IS A TYPICAL SCAM… YOU EVER MONEYGRAM POSTING OR SAYING NEVER SEND MONEY TO PEOPLE YOU DON’T KNOW?! This is why! Its a complete scam. They keep the check held and then encourage you to send the funds elsewhere so that they can see that you’re “loyal” or that you want take the money and run. That’s their claim. But this is not a test. It is a scam.

THEN asked for my login. He said he’s from Miami but he’s in Greece for work And will send me $300 twice a week.

          • I had the same thing I they all ask me for cards too and when they do that I make them pay me in time for time is greater than money I waist days of their lives in return my last one told me that me needed money then said that he would give me it the next day but lied and said he was bankrupt…… but aside from that I had somone that was in Grease message me several times but he threatened me if I were to run away his last baby left him and so his brother is in the FBI and he had his last baby tossing in prison for life just for wanting to be with his family on a vacation.

  6. in reply to all ladies above, there are many options with today’s technology other than giving a stranger your bank info or personal info. There is: the Square Cash app, Venmo, Google Wallet, and Paypal. Square cash is personally my favorite. but they all work great and SD won’t need any personal info, just your email/username associated with the account. 🙂

    hope this helps

      • Hi Allison, most cases where the SB is asked to pay something in order to receive the allowance don’t end well. International banking is not that complicated – there are a bunch of ways to send money without you having to pay anything – so this just sounds like nonsense. Add to that the fact that you haven’t met yet and it is most likely a scam. We’d advise you drop this POT and look for another.

      • Hi Mal, thanks for stopping by! Yes, that sounds pretty normal. Just remember that until you become “official” (and even afterwards, if you want) – you’re totally free to tell him whatever you desire 🙂

    I don’t own a second phone that could run WhatsApp. Is it safe if I give away my everyday cellphone number? I mean, I could just block him if he started stalking and annoying me with texts every day, right?

  9. So, I actually don’t have a bank, and my SD is telling me to open a bank (after days of knowing each other) and insisting I get the card and go to all kinds of different lengths to get a bank account. He won’t do PayPal, since he had a ‘bad experience with another woman’. Is he scamming me? Should I dump him?

  10. Wow! im just getting a prepaid debit card to get money deposited. I’ve had a potential SD tell me he was in Turkey for work as well. Another contacted me on two different websites, using different names and background stories and photos, but he literally copies and pastes all his responses and statements.

  11. I had a SD message me and since I can’t be arsed to type a summary I’ll just copy-paste it:

    “I promise to be paying u 700$ per week and I will increase it to 1000$ when we see.I don’t send money through Western union,Money gram,PayPal so don’t bother to reply me if u don’t have bank account.i have met alots of fake peoples so all i want is an honest baby.”

    On top of already being suspicious of how insistent he is about wanting to transfer to the bank account [meaning he’d need my info] I can’t help being a bit skeptical of him because of how poor his English skills are. His profile being completely devoid of information doesn’t help.

    Not really asking for advice. Everything about this just feels suspicious so I’m passing regardless.

  18. I have been contacted by a handful of sweet gentlemen, however they keep offering to immediately start my ‘allowance’ and ask for my login information. Now, I went and purchased an easy pay card through Wells Fargo and offered to give them the card number, which I was told is harmless for the transfers since every guy contacting has said that is their bank. Well, no matter what I say to get them to understand I only am offering my card number, they still continue to push for my login. And between us, I’m broke as a joke which is why I am trying out the Sugar Baby life.

    Has anyone else been asked for their login? Fraud?
    Is this their way of trying to steal?

    It’s so irritating!

    • They should never ask for that information! Any intelligent man would know you don’t just give out secure information so he would never expect you to do that. And any SD you talk to should be willing to give you your allowance in a safe and secure way that makes you feel comfortable. These guys sound like scammers! And I used to work for a huge credit union, so coming from that perspective I would never hand out information like that even to your mother!

  20. So I have been talking to a POT all week. He seems normal as far as conversation goes…but first off, his profile is not even close to my area, but he said he travels a lot for work and is in my area sometimes. Okay that’s reasonable. So I asked how often he would want to see me then and his reply was that he didn’t know the next time he will be out my way and wants an online relationship for now and we can get to know each other better…okay, so I asked him how often he wanted to talk on the phone or FaceTime and he said he likes texting better. Hmm. Sounds odd to me; and he proceeds to tell me not to feel worried about that kind of arrangement he’ll pay me $600 every week for my time talking to him. I haven’t responded back to that, it seems suspicious. I haven’t given him any information about myself and I have a pay pal account I use…what are your thoughts?

I just want him to send me money pls help

  23. My new SD offered to pay off all of my credit debt and gave me his account and routing number to pay everything off. He is a private pilot and flies all over the world. I went ahead and paid my debt and the accounts had the name he is going by on them. He has agreed to a weekly allowance but has not yet asked for an account or routing number. Additionally, I asked for photos and he did send me a few of the same person. I Facebook creeped and the photos he sent are associated to a Facebook with the same exact name he has given me. Additionally he sent me pictures of other photos like his discharge certificate and what not. His story lines up. The ONLY a thing that weirded me out was he asked me to buy 15 iTunes gift cards for $100 each and send the codes to him via picture so he can use them at an aspiring pilots conference he is running in France this coming week.

    I just want some opinions!

    • Do not do it, this is a familiar scan. If you buy these cards via debit or credit cards they can use skimmers to get the info also they will take the funds off the itune cards from the pic leaving you with nothing. Seen this too many times.

  24. I am very new to the Sugar Baby thing, and in my first message a SD already asked me for my phone number or to add him on kik. His reasoning is because he doesn’t get online enough to check messages. Is it normal for them to jump right into the phone? is it safe for me?

  25. So my new SD asked for my routing number, name on the account & online banking details. I want to say he seems legit but I am skeptical because he lives in the states & I live in Canada and we have no plans to meet but he wants to start my weekly allowance asap. Is this a scam?!?!?

  26. Same story SD was relentless to get my login info to deposit $100 every day. I told him I didn’t have that info, but working in the banking industry I wanted to see what he’d do if I just kept telling him I didn’t have that info and that all he needed was actually a name and acct number. But he stated that he wanted to deposit the check in there and make sure i got it. What was sketchy as well was he asked if I had a bank acct and I said with a local credit union than he asked if it was a certain local credit union which was one of my banks that I don’t use so I said yes than he said great he’d send it there if I gave him that info. I told him that with today’s technology there was no need for him to have full access to my bank acct and we could use PayPal. He said that he tried last time it didn’t work and that he wanted me to trust him cuz he is Here for me. Haha guys this is a total scam. As a banker we caution ppl all the time about fools like him! Don’t do it, if you give him that information and he deposits a fake check YOU are responsible for the full amount if it returns and taking your account into the negative. No matter how desperate you get do not give any of that information out until you have established really good relationship with him. Even then I still wouldn’t recommend it, it just can turn bad.

  28. Hello. I’m new at the SB thing and I have some questions. A SD said “He would need to ask his payroll what info she need to start making deposit to me” and asked for my bank information and such. I told him to do PayPal account but he said he wouldn’t take it. Is there a way I can get a deposit from him?

  29. At least you all were smart enough. I’m a naïve person. I gave my SD my routing and account number after a couple days of talking to him. When he first messaged me on SA, he gave me his number which I texted. He replied a few hours later and said he was glad that I messaged him. He referred to himself as “daddy” A LOT which was weird lol.
    We made an agreement on my allowance being $700 a week and asked me for my bank account and routing number. I didn’t think too much of it and gave it to him. I told him not to pay attention to the fact that both my credit and debit cards were in the negatives. He ended up paying off my credit card and said he sent $300 to my bank account and that was for me to go shopping before he came out here to see me. He claimed he lives in New York while I live in Massachusetts. I was really starting to like this guy because he seemed genuine and caring. He told me a lot about him but always avoided the question of “where do you work and what do you do?” He’d always say, “Daddy sent you more money to your account. It should be posted in a couple days.” It’s been about a week and nothing has popped up. Just then, today I got an email from my bank saying that $920 couldn’t be added to my account because “David” sent a stale check. He was missing his signature. I screenshot the email and told him but he didn’t reply to it. I finally went on here and looked at all of the posts and realized that I’m literally going through the same thing everyone else is going through. I confronted him about it and he said “No. daddy would never scam you. I just paid off your credit card bill.” I told him I’ve read articles about scammers and he hasn’t replied since.
    My heart is so broken right now because I trusted him. I changed my bank account and credit card account passwords and I’m now waiting for my new cards with new routing numbers and account numbers. I would’ve never thought this happened to me but it did. I’m not sure about my credit card because the full payment hasn’t gone through. Only partial.
    I hope and pray this doesn’t happen to anyone else. .

    • Daddy messaged me today. Demanded that I open a Wells Fargo account after I told him I didn’t have a Chase account…

      Seems the new scam is to ask for your routing and checking number so he can add you to His PayRoll.

      Do not give anyone your Bank information for
      Any reason!

      Venmo!
      SquareCash!
      PayPal!
      GoogleWallet!

      Even prepaid cards can be dangerous!
      Be careful ladies

  31. So I’m very new to this site, and already theres a guy messaging and texting me. He’s sent me a ton of pictures and it’s definitely the same guy through out them all so I felt a bit more at ease. But he asked me not to talk to other men as we are talking, I agreed because that’s just now how I roll anyways. Then I asked him if we could meet up to see if we really click we’ll when he’s back in town. Says he is on vacation in Paris with his best friend. First he offers to buy me a ticket to join them as his friend has his SB with him. I declined of course because that’s a little much for me, he then says he feels bad that he can’t see me sooner and would like to start giving me an allowance so when he’s back I can have some cute new outfits and get my hair and nails done when we can meet. He asked for my bank number and I declined. I’m not sure if he is scamming me? But he hasn’t asked for it again either? I’m so confused and sad because the guy in the picture was actually kind of handsome. What can I do???

  32. Ok guys so ive been talking to my SD and he wanted to send me money so i said yes i didnt have any money in my bank acct so i saw no harm in giving it to him. He was supposed to give me 1500. 500 for my allowance and the 1000 to wire to a friend. I didnt like it but he already had my stuff so he asks me later if the money went through and he had transfered 10,000 dollars into my accoun. 1000 for me and 9000 for his friend. I dont want to do it anymore im really scared that im going to get in trouble but im scared that if i dont do the transaction that ill go to jail for just blocking him because i have his money. What do i do????

    • Same thing happened to me but his accountant mixed up the accounts and I got his sons tutor money and his sons tutor got my allowance.. so I told my SD I didn’t like this something didn’t feel right and he said baby trust him and calm down everything will be fine.. we’ll i go to check if it went through today and my account is closed down and I didn’t do anything

    • That’s how I felt like after only 5 days of knowing him he started in with me and my kid moving in with him and him getting me a job and sent me about 700$… I finally told him that I needed time to think and he got upset about it. Now he’s threatening to sue me and everything. I’m scared shitless. I even told him I’d pay him back but it’s like he’s trying to pull me back in then get mad because I don’t want to move in with him right away.

    • Don’t do it! You won’t go to jail. He will, he’s the scammer. I hope you made the best decision. If you wait for 10days, it’ll usually show you if it’s legit or not.

  34. Hey guys!
    I’m new to the whole sugar baby thing. A woman took interest in me and wants me to be her sugar baby. She sends me live pictures and even Skype calls me to prove she is real. However, she wants me to send her my bank account number. She can’t withdraw money from my account from just the account number right? She said I need to make a separate checking account so that she can put money in for my allowance. She doesn’t use PayPal , she prefers the bank. Is this a scam? She doesn’t know my last name or my date of birth.

  35. I am new to the whole sugar baby thing. I have a supposed sugardaddy that wants to do an arrangement and deposit a monthly allowance for me. I gave him my paypal information but he is now stating I have to go to this certain credit union and open a new checking account with a new line of credit because this is the only bank where he can send the funds. I don’t believe that. I sent him a message stating if he can’t use the paypal which is much easier than we can’t have an arrangement. I do believe he is a big scammer because not only wanting me to open a checking but a line of credit unbelievable.

    i said well idk you enough/trust you enough for all that so i said just send it to my paypal, & gave him my link (not with my full name, just a username) & now hes saying there is no way to do that, bc his account is a “company” account & it disburses fund thru inter bank transfer and checks, & he pays his workers with it, more emoji’s and calling me babygirl

    • Hi Shaun, thanks for stopping by and we’re so happy that things are working out for you. And yes, trust is important but blind trust is not wise, especially in the sugar world. Once you’re in an arrangement with a man you know and have a connection with, trust comes naturally. But to share all passwords and personal information before you’re in solid we-know-each-other-well-and-have-each-other’s-backs zone is a recipe for disaster. Just something every new sugar baby should keep in mind!

  47. I just opened a new account no money is being put in it but my SD did the same thing, said he wants to add me to his pay roll and he asked for my account info! If I’m not putting any money into it should I be worried? And if so can’t I just change all of my passwords?

  53. So, I’m new to this. So far, all my Potential SDs have been asking for my account info. I’ve been pretty clear that I don’t want direct deposit and would prefer either cashapp, PayPal, or sending it in the mail. MANY have said that they can’t because “their bank” has many strict rules and regulations where they are unable to send money that way.
    I don’t see how this would be true but I don’t know the ins and outs of higher income banks.
    Can someone clear this up for me??

  54. I’m new to the SD/SB world & I’ve been getting to know couple of men who say they are interested & want to start me on an allowance right away but because I am new I’m a little skeptical of what they ask for, they all basically ask for my username & password for the bank I use.

  55. Ok; so I was a sugar baby for a gentleman for maybe 5 days(?) then he started in the whole, “I want you to live with me, I’m in love with you, can have whatever you want and if it doesn’t work or you can keep everything… blah blah blah” at the time it sounded nice and that’s all I said “oh that sounds nice or that would be nice” then I started thinking I only have known this guy 5 days this is wrong for only 5 days. (In those 5 days he gave me $625; and a car I didn’t ask for) so when I told him my concerns about it all going to fast and I needed to pump the brakes he got mad and started threatening to sue me, call the cops, pretty much ruin my life. He knows my full name and phone number. How do I protect myself further? I have a facile to worry about and I even offered to pay him back since he was trying to control me and it turned me off to the whole thing.

  64. So I have 2 SD’s lol but the first one asked for my username n login I gave it to him on good faith only because my bank will alert me for everything including scheduled transfers withdrawal deposits everything he didn’t mention an account officer or anything like that and he deposited two checks the kind you take a picture of through the bank app. I see the images of the checks and I’m not touching any of it until my bank says it cleared like the bank sent my bank the money but the check looks weird to me it’s Bank of America but it says Safeway too and it had a typed dollar amount on both of them for the same amount of $984.44 totaling $1968.88 he texted me saying it should be available to me the next morning but my bank emailed me that it will take longer for funds to be available until the 18th which is 7 business days away. I changed all my login info but do you think he’s scamming me I couldn’t find anything different on my account nothing changed or added I even called my bank about anything suspicious and they said no. If this is legit then I’m super excited I’m going to Vegas soon and could definitely use this extra spending money. What do you think?

    Reply
    • I would confirm with him how much he deposited? I wouldn’t touch the money until those seven business day and see if your still talking to your SD. For further reference it is much safer to use Paypal or Square cash app.

The one I have more faith in, is a man who says he works for a bank and lives in Atlanta. But he put me on edge when he asked for my phone carrier log in and password but he said it was so that he can pay it. Which makes sense but then he asked for my security question which I was a little weirded out by but still gave it to him yet he hasn’t paid anything. Is this a scam? He wants to fly me there to see him and I feel like meeting him would help me figure out if he is trust worthy but also scared I’ll get kidnaped lol another man asked me what my full name is and said that he will sign a check and Send me a pic of the check so that I can enter the pic on my account. I asked if we could just do pay pal and he said no and that he doesn’t use third party apps. Is this all a scam?

YouTube popup cover my account last 4 numbers and just my limit and debt was showing. Am i fucked? Also, he said to shop in the morning he will take care of the bill… I said look I am weary of this.

    • I know this reply is a bit late but I’m hoping you haven’t already done this. Do Not start with your SD this way! First, you know nothing about him and you need to make sure you feel safe around him and get an idea of his character. You don’t want to wind up in a threatening situation. A true gentleman SD will want to make sure you feel comfortable first, if not, then don’t go! Meet up for coffee or lunch, to get to know the vibe of him and never leave your drink alone with him if you need to walk away from the table. Sorry, but men can act like they are the most perfect gentleman in the world and then be absolutely crazy deap inside. It’s your life and you get to decide what you’re comfortable with and what you’re not if it to soon. 🙂 xoxo

  80. Can anyone help me?? Been talking to a very sweet potential sugar daddy but he wants to send me my allowance through money gram. He says all he needs is my name then he will send me the verification code to pick it up. This seems pretty safe to me but I just want to be sure! I feel like a scammer would have scrammed long ago with all the questions I’ve thrown at him. Thanks so much!

  81. If you haven’t met an SD in person, and he is not willing to pay you cash, or use PayPal or whatever, he’s probably a scammer. Sending money to your bank account is a classic money laundering scheme, and YOU could go to prison. That’s why all the sites say not to give out your bank info, peeps!

  82. So I actually started on a dating website when a sweet guy actually said he was an Sd unfortunately I fell for the scam he said he was in Rochester,New York and I was stupid and gave him my log in and he tried to cash fraudulent checks he went by the name Barry Hakeem and his profile had RichHakeem. I’m still dealing with luckily my bank caught and closed the accounts had to beg them to let me reopen the accounts but under different numbers and cards that was because he had access to one of three accounts. After the whole incident I decided I’d go on a real sugar daddy website but the next one I found has turned out another 3 frauders this is almost more than a new sugar baby can take. Sugadaddyforme.com has turned up these three frauders since reading these articles and the mishap I had b4 reading these I follow my gut. I had one that goes by Austin “SHULTZ” being his screen name try to guilt me into giving my online info or credit card #. Said he wanted to help take care of my debt had a four year old son named John and his wife had passed and he was lonely told him PayPal or Venmo hasn’t messaged me since. The next one asked for nude picks within five min of texting got him off that but then wanted bank account info to do bank to bank transfer said no PayPal or Venmo he said how about buying gift cards and I can reload them said nope. So he tried asking for my credit card number and I’d have to run some errands for him told him sorry nope you didn’t get rich by having random women you never met run errands for you. Haven’t heard back from him and he goes by Jason. He also has two different numbers will tell you phone restarted and now he’ll be texting you from this number. Then the third one from that site supposedly sends you 3k via western union but you have to pay out $300 dollars to get it told him couldn’t get it sorry that he could do it through pay pal. And he goes by Joel if needed I do have pictures of all

    • Hey babe! I’m a new SB and I’ve been experiencing this a lot. So many scammers and time wasters. DO NOT give out your information at all. Any bank information or anything. It’s all scammers and a real true gentleman SD will never do that. Please do your research also!

  84. So the whole moneygram thing is a scam? He wants my ssn and my home address. I made the money gram and had my home address on there i gave him my login but after reading i just changed my login information and removed my bank account and debit card from the moneygram just in case. he also spoke about his accountant needing that information. My phone died so i decided to speak to him on his twitter account asking him why he needs my ssn and address. I told him i have a paypal and that he can send it there. no reply yet.

  92. I have a WEIRD situation…. I was DMed on instagram by a girl who claimed to be trying to find a new sugar baby for her “ex-sugardaddy” as she was moving away and they wanted to call it off. She said she found my acct and thought I would be a good fit for her SD. Her acct seems semi-legit, had been up for at least a month and had many picture of her and over 100 followers. She gave me his phone # and just said good luck and don’t forget me when you start making all that $$!! After getting to know this guy he asked for my bank log in info and I offered to use paypal instead and he said he’s had his Paypal hacked in the past and didn’t want to go down that road again. He’s offering 800$ a week for me to keep him company in a non-sexual way. The girl on instagram said he is so nice and had been helping her for 2 years, but I don’t know if the “girl” running the acct is the same as the potential scammer SD. I asked him to send me pictures of himself and he did but again there’s no way to know if they were googled. I’m wondering if it is bad to open a NEW bank acct and give him that log in info and keep an eye on the activity to make sure it isnt fraudulent. And withdrawl everything that goes in it right away to avoid money laundering. Is this okay? How do I go about this safely i’m very uninformed.

  93. Thank you for this info.

    I have a prospective Sugar Momma asking for my SSN.
    She’s promising $220 a week, but that is not worth getting scammed over.

    She keeps evading when I call her out on it.

    I know not to give out my SSN, but seeing it here helps reinforce it in my mind.

    Thanks again.

  95. So this is my first time as a SB & I found a SD that wants me to be employed in one of his companies. He wants me to fill out an application. Should i be working for him in one of his companies?

  96. I agree with MOST of what is said here.

    1 objection… A Bank Account number is needed to get money out of an account, true – but identity theft would be required, too. And a Splenda Daddy RARELY is going to be looking to scam your MONEY, girls. It is a sex act or 5 with you, without his holding up his end of the bargain he’s going to be looking for over 99% of the time.

    A BIGGER objection, because it is a safety issue… Don’t give your home or work address to a POT SD before you know him well. Do you REALLY want a guy who could be very creepy knowing where you live? Come on. I NEVER ask an SB of mine about where she lives, or wants to, unless I’m going to pay the rent and we’ve known each other awhile.

    Social Security – I pretty much agree with the Author here. Their is an exception. After I’ve been with a girl for a few months, and I see it is working, I may hire her. Then I need her SSN, but unless YOUR SD is going to have 1 of his companies cover your Allowance, he has ZERO need for your SSN.

  97. Money can only be withdrawn from a PrePaid Card or a Bank Debit card by using it. If you give him the Card’s info – number, expiration date, security card (and zip where you live if it is a bank debit card) – is the only way you can be scammed. Some prepaid cards may have use fees and monthly fees – but that’s a different issue.

    Reply
  98. Barbara, you were right, Banks do N OT prevent that from happening. Some money receiving accounts, like cash.me, MAY not accept prepaid debit cards – I’ran into that problem with a collection company when I was young, but not actually with PayPal or cash.me

    Reply
  99. Go to cash.me and open an account. Your SD can use his credit card safely (they won’t give its number to you) and you can use your Cash.me debit card number (you don’t get a physical card) for immediate transactions or have it transferred to your Bank account (immediately at a cost of 1% of what you transfer – cheaper than PayPal, or in 3 or 4 days for free). They don’t give him your Bank info. Takes an hour ot 2 to hityour cash.me account from when he sends it.

    Reply
    • A routing number, account number and name are standard – not much he can do with that except make payment. And N26 is a perfectly legitimate bank. If you know the sugar daddy well enough already and you have an arrangement, that info is fine to share. If you want to double check, just ask your bank if those details can be used to withdraw money from your account. That should settle it.

  116. So I am new to the sugar baby/daddy thing. A SD messaged me offering me a weekly allowance which sounds great. I asked for him to give me the money through venmo, but he said his bank doesn’t let him do venmo or apps like it because he was sending to much money to them. He wants my banking information so that he can send me the money. He has said if I don’t trust him I can empty my bank account so there would be nothing for him to take. When I said I was just going to make a new banking account he said not to do that and that he would just send me a picture of the front and back of his pay check. Is this a scam?? Is there any way he could take money out of my account if he has my routing and account number?

  117. So I read all the replies and am starting to feel concerned. This is my first sd. He said he is currently stuck in Italy on a business trip, which makes sense because it’s currently corona time. But he asked for my name email account and routing number. I didn’t feel comfortable giving him this information but I didn’t want to pass on a weekly $1000 so I gave him the information to a chime account I made but have never used. So there’s no money in it and no transaction history. I didn’t want to be scammed out of the money in my main account so I decided to give him my chime in case maybe it wasn’t a scam so I still get the $1000 a week. He said he sends money on the weekends and spoke about an account officer sending me the money so fingers crossed that this works and I’m not about to get scammed. Hopefully he can’t over draft a 0 balance account so I feel somewhat comfortable
