Online stings (Stop-gruppa Stockholm)
Swedish police place fake escort profiles; identify and intercept buyers. Income-based dagsböter fines can be financially severe.
Mitigation: Profiles with too-easy availability and low screening are red flags; established touring providers with multi-year history are lower risk.
Crypto deposit scams
Increasing share of Swedish escort directories run scam profiles asking for crypto deposits.
Mitigation: Never deposit; pay cash at session.
