Discussion about AprilWong, camming since 2019

April, also known as AprilWong, is a Ukrainian camgirl who has been camming for Allure, an Odessa-based studio, since 2019. She is considered the catalyst for severe action from MyFreeCams, which culminated in the termination of all accounts connected to Allure Studio.
This forum discussion debates the reasons for the ban, the studio’s reactions, and what happened to the people involved.

I agree. There were over 40 Allure Studio models who got their accounts banned. All of them except for one followed the rules. As little a percentage as they make working for the studio, losing their biggest site has to be devastating.

In regards to the new model losing her account, it wouldn't shock me if the people in charge of the studio thought they could sneak her on without MFC noticing. This is all speculation on my part again, but we've seen how one of the admins doesn't care about the rules.

Also wouldn't be shocked if the people in charge are telling the girls they'll be back soon when they really have no idea. In a legit business if one of the bosses blatantly broke the rules and cost the company so much money, that person would be fired. But running a webcam studio in Ukraine isn't exactly a legit business, unfortunately.
 
It is now Friday, March 22. One month since Allure Studio was banned by MFC.  Will it be back?

Models are saying so, but do they really know? Can we trust that the administration/managers at Allure Studio are telling the models the truth about the future?

I think April is a crucial month. We saw what happened with ChloeSins on MyFreeCams. Two days, and then her account is deleted?

At some point, I think the AprilWong situation with her boyfriend/studio manager needs to be looked at as more and more likely being the reason for the ban.

At least Andrew Tate had the common sense to not fuck KissOfACobra while she was broadcasting and charged for Skype. If somebody in management is known for having less common sense than Andrew Tate doesn't that say it all?  :D

I really hope they come back. There are plenty of Allure Studio models who followed the rules. If they can't get back on MyFreeCams I hope they leave Allure Studio and find another studio in Odessa, Ukraine. There are certainly plenty of options.

Allure Studio always seemed like a classy studio. The rooms always looked great compared to other Ukrainian webcam studios. It would be a shame that it ended because of the selfish actions of a member of management possibly taking advantage of a model.

Also, I hope if she was guided at all by his position of power that AprilWong might wake up and leave the guy in management for someone who won't use his influence to take advantage of a girl who makes 10 cents on the dollar that he and his  Allure Studio colleagues make.

I still have some hope that they will be back in April 2024. If they aren't back by then, I guess I will have to accept the fact that I will have to follow my favorites on other sites.

If this was just a 30 day ban, then by end of Monday the 25th of March, we should see some of them returning.  
Don't suppose you know anything about the dude that April was with? Boyfriend? Studio employee? Both?

  The only men that work in the studio are the Programmers. They are the guys who run the tech part of the studio, internet and any tech needs. They also go through and save all the recordings of the girls. Somewhere there is a server with all the girls group shows, privates, and any other show from MFC and other sites. You also have the owner and her husband, but they do not live in Ukraine.  To answer your question, most likely he is one of the three programmers. The admins are Models that still work the cam to offset their salary. The manager comes from the models as well. Some might remember Usexy_friend. She became a manager. Eventually the stress made her leave Allure. 

  Allure is an all girl studio. Prior to 2020, MFC was the only site the studio allowed the girls to use. With MFC no longer in use, and the girls are making less, I wonder how long the no guy policy will last? I think the owner, if she cannot regain MFC, will decide to allow guys into the studio. She has to make her money. I can see some of the girls leaving for a different studio if they cannot return to MFC through Allure. I personally think Allure Studio is changing and will not be the studio it once was.

I wonder why they do that. Why keep thousands of hours of videos? That must cost some decent cash. If the videos are not going to be used, then why spend the time and money to save the videos?

I do not know how long these videos are saved. I do not know if the entire session is recorded or just the group and private shows. I do know, it is one of the programmers job to go through these videos. A lot of the MFC Share videos the girls post and the other sites they sell videos comes from these recordings. The girls do not save these videos, the studio does and the girls can decide to post them or not. I am not saying all the videos the girls post for sale are sourced this way, they do custom videos also. I am saying that quite a few of these videos they sell are from past private and group shows the girls have done.

April is a royal shit. I am sorry if I offend any of her fans. But she is one of the most grumpy and moody girls I have seen in private. It was a super lousy cam show of a camgirl who seemed angry because I wanted to see her naked in private.
I will expand on this further. I read on nobodyhome that allure studio models live off whales and because of that they don't do anything in private. I got curious after reading this discussion because you say she is good. I went private and she was as moody as you can get. Even though I was as polite and patient as you can be. She took a long time "dancing" while checking her phone. Something like 5 minutes doing the same moves. When I asked if she was ready to get naked, she got angry and moody. She "masturbated" while swearing in Russian. Still checking her phone. When I asked if she could show more, she told me to tip $30. I said goodbye and ended the private.By the way, I don't know why but AprilWon was clearly hiding her face during the private. She was showing her face when she was chatting. But during the terrible striptease and lousy masturbation, her face was out of sight. She positioned the camera so close that it couldn't fit her face in the frame. Usually it disrupts the experience, but she had already ruined the experience that it didn't matter much.I also had a private chat with StacyJey. Much better girl. There are a few things she refuses to do on cam (she won't do a closeup for exmaple) but she does a lot better than April. At least she was nice and polite, smiling and everything. It was just strange that after cumming, she started thanking me and saying goodbye. Usually girls try to get me to chit-chat after they cum.
 
I always had fun with April in private. She was a little difficult the first few minutes of our first session, but after that she was good. Had a couple of nice girl/girl shows with her, too. Then again, those privates were in the MFC days, so I cannot comment on how she is now.

I do wonder if the loss of MFC income is finally starting to affect the models after over 1 month of being gone. KelSi had her birthday the other day and it was kind of depressing to see a former Top 100 girl on MyFreeCams sitting on Chaturbate without much traffic or many tips. I believe her quote was something along the lines of Chaturbate "just isn't her site."
 
The new SofiBlooom account last broadcast on MyFreeCams on March 31: https://mycamgirl.net/stats/myfreecams/sofiblooom

That profile has also been deleted, like all of the other Allure models: https://profiles.myfreecams.com/sofiblooom

It seems as though MFC is onto the studio after also deleting the new ChloeSins account earlier in the month.

Unfortunately for the girls it looks like they will have to find a way to make it without MFC.

A little unbelievable that the studio is still trying to sneak girls on after being banned.
 
It has been 6 weeks since Allure Studio was banned from MyFreeCams, and the truth is the site has never responded to the studio administrators. MFC will not allow new models from the studio to create accounts. This was not a simple mistake or errors with documents. For all intents and purposes, Allure seems to be pretty much done on the site.
It really sucks for the girls. MFC was their best performing site. It's now hard to keep up with the models since so many of them are trying out different sites, hoping to find some way to replace the income lost from MFC.
I have heard from enough models and members to feel comfortable saying that the guy who got busted in AprilWong's room and the other top guy at the studio are pretty big shitheads. I heard that April is not the first girl from the studio he has tried this with, she is just the first to have been caught on camera. Apparently this is the M.O. of him and his buddy at the studio. They are both very "hands-on" both at the studio and at their company events.
That's just another reason that I feel sorry for the girls, and I do feel bad for AprilWong if she was the latest conquest of this guy who has allegedly tried to have sex with nearly every girl at the studio for years. He might be her boyfriend, or he might be her "boyfriend," just to make life and the job a little easier for herself. The girls already get taken advantage of by having to give up such a percentage of tokens they earn, now this.
Maybe the studio won't survive with the lack of MFC income. Maybe it'll have to cut down on the number of models. Or maybe they'll find another site to strike it rich on and it'll be like before. Only time will tell. 
Hopefully the girls, the real victims here, will find some way to be ok. If they want to stay doing webcam, maybe they'll get lucky and the owner/owners will wake up and see something is very wrong that a studio that has been around for 10 years got banned by it's most lucrative site. Or maybe there's another studio in Odessa, Ukraine where they won't be subjected what they were subjected to at Allure.

I said this before. MFC won't reply. They rarely reply. They made the decision to ban all the girls and won't explain why. They shouldn't explain, by the way. This would allow the studio to learn from it and adapt so as not to be caught again. The ban is not a lesson, it is a punishment.

I also would like to see the girls return to MFC, they are the real victims here. But if the site never gets back to the studio, I just don't see it happening.

And while I still believe being caught with a man on camera the day before the ban is the reason, you are correct that it is speculation without MFC responding.

But, if it was coincidence, if nothing else there is enough visual evidence posted here to show that MFC rules were broken multiple times. I might have been too harsh on AprilWong in my previous posts, especially after hearing what I have heard about the guy. But the fact remains that if the rules were followed to begin with, there wouldn't even be the possibility that allowing a man on camera was the reason for the ban.

At the end of the day, this studio which stood out from most of the others and probably made good money for MFC, screwed up so badly somewhere along the line that they got banned. And it isn't like it is a new studio either, this was a well-known studio and for good reason.

I hope you are correct and the owners have been made aware. They need to take a serious look at what could have happened and evaluate what needs to be changed.
The one question I have, if MFC no longer allows studio accounts, how was Allure still on a studio account? Is it possible to just start individual model accounts on MFC, but I can see this being a headache if they cannot connect all those accounts to the same banking account. Just a thought I have been thinking on for a while now. I know a lot of if not most of these girls do not have their own bank accounts and rely on cash system to live. I am surprised more of these studio girls do not go out on their own and earn a lot more. These studio I know have the intention to help these girls but they take to big an advantage of them also.

Thank you Jimmyj_Two_Times for the compliment. You also give great insight.

I have also talked with many of the girls that work cam at Allure, and I have talked with the girls that are administrators. Truth be told, no one but MFC knows the reason for this ban of Allure Studios. It would be nice and simple if it was all April's and this dudes fault. Speculation is all we can really have.  The girls I have talked with that have been with the studio for years, and a couple that have already left do not think it was April's fault.  The Studio also knows about this discussion and other post about this subject.  The owners have also been made aware of this situation, but as of yet nothing has been done about it.  I am sure if they thought April was the cause, she would no longer be working at Allure. If this guy really was the cause and has cut so deep into the studios bottom line, I am sure he would no longer be allowed there.  Again, all speculation. We do not really know the cause and April's incident might all be coincidence.   

I much prefer MFC to the other sites, even with all its problems, it was still a much better site to deal with and track the girls. I still get to see and spend time with my favorite girls from that studio, so for me all this is just a minor inconvenience. These post have been nice to see that there is a following of Allure and hopefully we can see them return to MFC.

Really? I have seen many studios being banned, and almost every studio tried to create new accounts.
Some studios don't even try to figure out what happened. They create new
accounts and think it is all fine. Some studios even hold backup accounts
(CB is full of backup accounts) in case their main accounts are banned.These
studios come from countries where finding tricks to avoid the rules/fines is
considered a good hack life. So yes, they will try a bunch of different ways to
get back to MFC instead of accepting the fact that they fucked up and got
banned. They already tried creating new accounts. And they got the girls to tweet @
MFC to put some pressure, plant doubts in MFC decision and pretend to be
innocent.By
the way, trying to go back to MFC is stupid. Look this girl sofiblooom. She got
back, had some privates, and then got banned again. She will never be paid for
some of those privates. I don't know about the privates she had in the
beginning of March, but the privates she had in the end of the month, she
won't see a dime for those since MFC banned the account before paying out the
period.My 2 cents on why they banned all models. I don't think it is related to that guy
showing up in one girl's stream. I think the reason is more serious. Something
that made MFC cut ties to avoid legal trouble. Either that or the studio tried
to squeeze MFC into a position, and MFC shot back by banning the whole studio.If
I am right, then MFC has nothing against the girls. They may be allowed to
return if they are not working for that studio. This may create an
exodus, leaving the studio with almost no models and forcing it to shut down.
Maybe that was the plan?We
are all creating theories here, but we wouldn't need to. If the studio were
professional, they would talk to the girls and explain why they can't
work on MFC anymore. It doesn't matter if MFC isn't replying. The studio knows
or has an idea of why they got banned. MFC wouldn't ban a studio for no
reason. They did something wrong, they know it. They got banned for it and
give zero explanation.

I was wondering the same. MFC as a software is known for being a mess. It is an old system running on top of a bunch of poor code glued together to work as a band-aid on deep cuts. Maybe they just stopped accepting studio accounts, but studio accounts were never really removed from the system. I can imagine it being a nightmare to convert every studio model into individual account. Maybe it can be automate. But because of the documents and payment details, it isn't that straightforward.

Actually you are right. This is totally believable that they would try this.  :😃

At some point the studio will have to come to the realization that they messed up and there's no coming back. 

I can't imagine we won't be seeing changes at some point in the next couple of months. Right now they have girls scattered across every webcam site known to man. There will not be a quick fix from losing all of that MFC income, so some sort of adjustment has to be made.

I agree 100%.

I said earlier that I believe that AprilWong getting caught is the reason. But I do admit that it could be a coincidence. 

However, I still assert that if the people in charge there were professional that the AprilWong incident wouldn't even be a possibility. They broke three of the first four rules MyFreeCams has posted in rules for models multiple times. Somehow they had the good sense not to have anybody underage on camera or they would have been 4-for-4.

  1. Unauthorized persons
    1. Unregistered persons (people who have not submitted their ID to us) on camera.
    2. Men on camera for any reason. Men should not be in the same room.
    3. Sexual interaction with men, on or out of view of the camera.
    4. Minors, children, babies on camera or in the same room.
And MyFreeCams does state that you can be banned without warning. There's been hundreds if not thousands of models banned without warning in the past. They have never heard why and will never hear why.

Advice to any model or studio in the future. MFC has a lot of flaws, but when it comes to breaking rules, this is a "fuck around and find out" company.

As far as why the girls don't go out on their own, you have to remember that porn is illegal in Ukraine.

The studios can advertise that they provide rooms, high speed internet, training, etc. but the biggest service they provide is knowing the right people to pay off to keep the girls from getting arrested.

There are videos out there of studios being raided by police as they were broadcasting, because the right people weren't paid off.

So once again, these girls get taken advantage of, both physically and mentally, as well as getting pennies on the dollars of their earnings just so they will be protected.

An independent girl just wouldn't have the resources to pay the right people off.


An investigation by Ukrainian outlet Zaborona back in 2020 showed that webcam studios are easy prey for blackmail from corrupt police officers.

I knew it was illegal in Ukraine, but after reading these articles, I had no clue that so many were in the industry. 10's of thousands if not 100's of thousands may be working in the industry. I can see why law makers would want to legalize pornography. Potentially, billions in revenue. Thanks for these articles you posted, really informative. 
I bet outside of the religious crowd, the people most against pornography being legalized in Ukraine are the studios.

I know plenty of successful independent models from Romania. There are still studios there, obviously, but look at the amount of independent Romanian girls on the Top 100 on MFC.

If you cut out the middle man (the studios) the girls get to keep more money and wouldn't have to deal with any unprincipled and/or lecherous studio employees.

Those articles point out lots of other advantages, too. It would be nice to see it happen.

It's kind of weird, it appears AprilWong and AlishaBell aren't broadcasting from any of their own accounts any more. 

They are broadcasting as SexyTrilogy on AdultWork with MiaMuse. The only site they are multi-camming to is Mia's Chaturbate account. 

I wonder why they are streaming to one of Mia's accounts, but none of April's and Alisha's? Mia said on Instagram that the trio would be doing shows together for this month.

It seems they're getting the traffic/tips that most of the Allure models get on Chaturbate - not much. But you would think all of them would be streaming to their individual accounts, not just Mia on CB, right?

I have also been curious what Allure Studio's deal is with AdultWork. I have talked to other people who didn't know what AdultWork was before MFC banned the studio, and none of us have been impressed with it as a website. But somehow it's the one site where all Allure models work.

April was online on Flirt 4 Free a week ago. Four days later she started streaming with two other girls on Flirt 4 Free. I don't know them, but I assume those are the girls you mentioned. They are online right now on Tri Amour account.
I have also been curious what Allure Studio's deal is with AdultWork. I
have talked to other people who didn't know what AdultWork was before
MFC banned the studio, and none of us have been impressed with it as a
website. But somehow it's the one site where all Allure models work.AdultWork is horrible. Its interface is confusing, there is no public chat and traffic is dead. The only good thing they have is the 65%-70% payout. But if you have no member booking a show, the high payout is pointless. It only works for models with sugar daddies that follow them to whatever shitty site the girls direct them.Maybe someone can enlighten me. If they were making good money on MFC and had a good fanbase, why can't they do the same on other sites? Why do their fans not go to whatever site they are now and spend money there? I can't understand why being banned from MFC can be the studio's death if there are so many options out there. Chaturbate and Stripchat have way more traffic than MFC and people tip a lot for the type of show they are doing.

Thank you for the info on AdultWork. I still hate that website and agree with you about the interface.

I just saw Tri Amour began streaming today. AprilWong seemed to be doing ok on her solo account on Flirt4Free, especially compared to how most of the other Allure Studio girls I have watched have been doing. But now the earnings will be split three ways?

And your question about why members haven't followed them to other sites is one of the many mysteries that have arisen since they were banned.

Now, I don't claim to know every model from the studio, but I checked the stats on this site from 20 or so. 15 of the models ranked in the Top 1000 of MFC in January. Also 10 models ranked in the Top 1000 for February, despite being banned on February 23. That February number includes LiaDazy, who didn't start until late January so she wasn't ranked then. KelSi was in the Top 100 when the ban happened, and still finished #167.

Just using those 2 as an example, it is a bit crazy to see what has happened. LiaDazy quit in March. KelSi is generating far from those number of tokens on Chaturbate.

I guess unless some of their bigger tippers explain what happened this will be another unsolved mystery.

Why do their fans not go to whatever site they are now and spend money there? I can't understand why being banned from MFC can be the studio's death if there are so many options out there. Chaturbate and Stripchat have way more traffic than MFC and people tip a lot for the type of show they are doing.<br></br>
Many reason contribute to the fans not all following their models to other sites. Not all fans are linked to their social media accounts, so they have no clue what happened to them. Some fans are loyal to MFC and have no desire to use other sites, even if they knew where to find the models. Myself, I did follow the ones I like to Chaturbate. I am not a fan of Chaturbate myself and much preferred MFC even with all it's flaws. KelsiDi already had an account on Chaturbate and streamed there often enough. A lot of the other girls also had second accounts on other sites, but MFC was still a better money maker for them. I have also noticed that a lot of these models had the same fans that spent money on them, most being supporters of the Allure girls.

AdultWork is horrible. Its interface is confusing, there is no public chat and traffic is dead. The only good thing they have is the 65%-70% payout. But if you have no member booking a show, the high payout is pointless. It only works for models with sugar daddies that follow them to whatever shitty site the girls direct them.
Allure Studio started using AdultWork a few months after the war started in Ukraine. The reason, I am not sure, but I do know that the studio tries all the different cam sites. AdultWork has improved a little since they started using it, and it continues to be improved, but still a shit site. AdultWork is the only site that I have seen with a full list of all the girls registered. I find this is a nice feature.

It's kind of weird, it appears AprilWong and AlishaBell aren't broadcasting from any of their own accounts any more. 

They are broadcasting as SexyTrilogy on AdultWork with MiaMuse. The only site they are multi-camming to is Mia's Chaturbate account. 

I wonder why they are streaming to one of Mia's accounts, but none of April's and Alisha's? Mia said on Instagram that the trio would be doing shows together for this month.

It seems they're getting the traffic/tips that most of the Allure models get on Chaturbate - not much. But you would think all of them would be streaming to their individual accounts, not just Mia on CB, right?

I have also been curious what Allure Studio's deal is with AdultWork. I have talked to other people who didn't know what AdultWork was before MFC banned the studio, and none of us have been impressed with it as a website. But somehow it's the one site where all Allure models work.
What is interesting to me is why AprilWong is streaming with these two girls and not MilaVox.

I would guess over the past couple years no two girls from the studio have cammed more together than those two, and they always had good traffic on MyFreeCams. As a matter of fact, they were streaming together during the last day on MFC when all the bans happened.

It sure seems like that duo's success could transfer over to a new site/sites.

Now it seems as though they don't even use the same cam sites (besides AdultWork). April is on LiveJasmin and Flirt4Free, including her accounts with the girls. Mila is on Chaturbate and StripChat (occasionally Jasmin), and has begun pushing Skype on her OnlyFans.

I'm beginning to think this studio is abusing it's models. Something just doesn't seem right and the way things are unfolding, just screams to me like, sex trafficking.
Why do you mention sex trafficking? I have never gotten this impression and I have known a few of the girls through personal chat (old and new). The only men that work in the studio are the programmers. There is also the occasional maintenance worker that comes to repair or remodel work.  No guy works cam in that studio. The girls are usually alone majority of the time. I do agree, it is not the same as before. Not even the same as a year ago. But I have yet to think there is sex trafficking going on. I would assume prostitution before I ever think sex trafficking and even this I have never gotten the impression of. 

Do you know why cam business is so popular in Ukraine and other Eastern European countries? Yes, there is a lot of money to be made, but the main reason majority of the girls go into this profession is that the average monthly salary is quite low. And women's average salary is lower then men's.  This is why a lot of girls get talked into going into the cam industry. A lot never make it very long and end up working in a factory making low wages and working very hard for this wage. Factory work pays more than a lot of other jobs, but it is very demanding.  These girls, use cam not only to make a decent wage, though far less then they could make if camming for themselves, they also hope to find that guy that can take them away from that life and give them something better. There are many reasons why these girls find themselves on cam. They are gullible and see an easy way to make a decent living, though it can be quite hard on them with pressure from the studio to succeed.
 
While I don't know if I would go far to say trafficking, as I also have no idea what the exact definition by law of what sex trafficking is, I would say there are definitely changes in personnel that should be made.
What's done is done, and the studio will never be back on MFC. I would guess the only chance most of the girls would have to get back on MFC would be to leave the studio. The real question with that is if they would be allowed to, depending on the contract they signed with Allure Studio.
If the owners wanted to salvage any shot of treating their models with decency, they would take a look at a couple of their male employees. No current model could or would complain, but I have heard from former models, and I have heard from other members who have former model friends. Would they tell the truth if the owners asked them? Maybe, but who knows.
Any of them could explain to anybody how these employees act when they are alone with the girls at parties/functions where the girls just want to have a good time and relax. There's a reason husbands/boyfriends cannot attend these, and those 2 employees are the only men there.
As the owner said in one of her interviews: "Friendly and cozy atmosphere in the company makes our models feel happy, wanted and confident in the future. We sincerely believe that every woman deserves a luxurious life!"

The more I learn, the more this sounds just like a corporate motto without any basis in reality. It seems the image Allure present of itself on social media is a sham, and it isn't different than most other studios.

the average monthly salary is quite low
I hate to be the one to say this, but blaming the minimum salary is not an excuse.In a normal situation, minimum salaries are in tandem with the local economy. To someone in Germany, the Ukrainian minimum salary is awfully low. But guess what? Ukrainian people working in Ukraine are not living in Germany and won't need to pay 2,000 EUR for a one-bedroom flat in Munich. They have low salaries, but the costs are low, too. But I agree that earning the minimum salary doesn't exactly pay for an okay life.There are a lot of Ukrainian and Russian people living now in my country because of the war. I see the ones that struggle and work any job and those that moved with the whole family with a big SUV and rented a newly built nice flat. Let's call the second group "rich". They were working and living in Ukraine a couple of years ago. They are not related to camming at all. And for the record, they don't look like mafia. Yet, they made enough money to buy a new Toyota and provide for a family of four. Again, they made and are still making good money while not being camgirls. And I am not talking about a couple of people who came from rich families. I am talking about many families that started from nothing. Again, NOT related to camming.I know a handful of Ukrainian people who have already started businesses in my country after moving, and they are doing quite well.Another example? Go to Etsy. Many top sellers are from Ukraine. The most common is furniture. They sell well-crafted furniture for decent money, and they are very successful.My point is that if you work a regular job, you get a minimum salary, but a bag of potatoes isn't that expensive. But it is possible to make more money without being involved in camming.I am not against them being camgirls. Of course not. But I hate when they blame the economy, minimum salary, and everything else to justify being a camgirl when, in reality, they all want to make 10x more than the average person and still live in a cheap country.Romanian camgirls blame the same low minimum salary. But Romania's minimum salary is four times Ukraine's minimum salary. What about Poland? The minimum salary there is almost 6x higher than in Ukraine. Yet, you can find thousands of nonnude camgirls from Poland. They all blame their local economy and how shitty the salary is.

Why do you mention sex trafficking?
I suppose he used the term sex trafficking because that is the term. But he may be referring to slavery, exploitative behavior, and abusive situations.
 
I was talking to a camgirl (not from Allure Studio, by the way) the other day, and she brought up the time she got a warning from MFC for talking to a male friend via speaker phone on camera.
She sent me the wording of the warning (it was cut off at the end), but it read: "You're receiving a warning for the following reason: Men are not allowed on cam for any reason and should not be heard or seen on your broadcast. Please respect..." (That is where it got cut off.)
But she said the gist of what they said was this is her one and only warning. If she got caught again she'd be banned for good.
Got me thinking about this incident. If this happened twice in January, as the screenshots here show, AprilWong/the studio could have gotten a warning. Now since it was part of a studio account, who would have known about the warning? Who knows, but that would just be more speculation on my end.
But if they were indeed warned in January, and then got caught again in February, that would be a good reason to be banned. Especially since they were supposedly one of the last studio accounts, MFC could have just said screw it, we can't trust anyone there.
Again, this is all speculation. And having a man on speaker phone is different than blowing/having sex with a guy while off camera while broadcasting. But it's possible they had complaints and/or gave out a warning before.

And who knows if AprilWong even knew about the warning due to the nature of her account. Being an employee, the guy could have known and not given a fuck. He definitely has questionable morals from things I have heard. Also, the studio in general trying to sneak new models on or old models with new names, seems like it doesn't really care much for following MFC's rules anyway.

Also, don't try to wrap your head around the hypocrisy of MyFreeCams allowing Olivia to do her live call-in shows, while they warned another model about speaking to a friend on speaker phone. As the model told me when I asked her about it: "Check our camscores."

I think this is a good possibility.

I am sure MFC didn't want to lose the income, but if rules are consistently being broken out in the open...what other choice do they have? 

Then again, I know models who have gotten warnings, as well as models that have been banned with no warning. I guess it depends on how badly the rules are being broken and who is breaking them.

For instance...

This is classic MFC right here.  :D
 
@Rent85  You make some very good points. Though the minimum salary in Ukraine barely pays rent for an apartment and very little left to survive on. Yes I do agree, prices in Ukraine are much lower than other parts of the world. Yes, the girls could find different work or even be self employed.  I can only repeat what I am told about this subject, I am not a expert on this and have done little research. 

exploitation is a good word I think. Allure may be a safer environment for the girls to work compared to other studios and the owners of these studios may say that they are only helping the girls, but these owners are making a killing off them and pay the girls little. I just wish more had the since to save enough and cam for themselves in the safety of their own home if possible. VPN for the win. 
 
Also, looks like we are coming up on 2 months since the banning happened on February 23.

There are some pretty big name girls who never came back after the banning. There are plenty more, both successful and lesser known girls, that haven't been online for a month or so.

Sad what has happened to the vast majority of girls/employees who did nothing wrong and just want to make a living.

MFC suspended Olivia once, but the reason had nothing to do with any rules. What she did wasn't even mentioned in the rules, and it's still not there.I didn't know Olivia was doing live call-in shows. I don't follow her shows. Gosh, they are boring. But from what I know, her shows are heavily staged. I wouldn't be surprised if the calls were recorded and that she checked with MFC first. Is this recent? Maybe she is using AI for the voice, and then technically it is not a man. Not even a human. Also, Olivia is doing this as part of her act. I assume the other girl was having a personal phone call when she should be giving attention to members. It is the same idea behind the rule that says models must stay in camera sight.I remember when MFC banned streams from public places (restaurants, libraries, etc.). A bunch of girls were still streaming in public places, and people said MFC was protecting them. It turned out they were broadcasting from their private backyards or fake offices. They had checked with MFC if that was okay. I just hate that MFC never clarifies the rules, and everyone is clueless about what is okay and what is not.

Have you heard about Kickaz? She was 55 times in the top 10. Not top 100, but top 10. Yes, she was tipping herself a lot as part of her "business strategy". But still, MFC banned her without a warning and never let her return.Self-tipping or not, kickaz made more money for MFC than the whole Allure studio together. She was still banned.I honestly don't think Allure was bringing that much money. Of course, it is a lot of money for a Ukrainian studio. But for MFC, Allure girls are average/below average earners that MFC probably never noticed before this incident. Even if they were important, if MFC decides to ban them, money won't be a reason to change their minds.

Under her stats tab on this site, under "Recent Snapshots" it has pictures of Olivia's call-in shows from March 19 and 26. She puts a topic up for discussion and has a number for users to call in. It's about as exciting as it sounds, and you can get enough of it from the pictures without having to actually watch anything.

And Allure did have a dozen or more girls every month in the Top 1000. But you make a good point about banning Kickaz. 

I am still amazed that Allure has kept the guy, and to some extent AprilWong, employed. He certainly should have known better. Any moron knows MFC's rules about no men, and even if this had no reason to do with the ban, they were caught breaking the rules for sure and put everyone in that studio at risk.

I think it will be an interesting next few months for the girls from the studio.

Seems as though they are trying many different sites, and there are varying levels of success. I think it's safe to say none of the girls are doing as well as they did on MFC, though.

But anyone who has been around cam sites for long enough knows all it takes is one tipper to turn things around for a girl. I guess they will have to hold out as long as possible and hope for that one guy to show up. 

With over 40 models working, I don't think they all can wait forever.
 
I messaged April on LiveJasmin and told her she should ditch studios and work on her own. She said, not possible. The only reason for her saying this is if she's in financial turmoil or as I said, she can't escape whatever situation she's in. Either way, it's pretty sad that a beautiful woman can be so easily taken advantage of by her colleagues. They all look like a bunch of village idiots to be honest.

While that is a nice thought, these girls sign contracts with the studio that would prevent them from doing so.

Just another way these girls are victimized and taken advantage of. There's no way they have an attorney look over the contract before they sign. God only knows what is in there.

Although I'm sure if a legit lawyer were to look it over they'd be able to find a loophole or 10 that could free them.
 
Well, looks like Allure Studio is giving it another go trying to get a girl back on MFC.

Much like they tried with the SofiBlooom account, the former GinaSpade/ValkyriEva is broadcasting on MFC now as EvaBumm.

If you check AdultWork, she's still with the studio, but it has her country as Romania and says she's accessing from France.


Will she suffer the same fate as Sofi?

Scam_Models makes a good point about not being able to escape the situation. The sad reality is most of the time a stable life doesn't lead a girl to get into this line of work. Sure, there can be some nice perks and they can make good money, etc., but some of their backstories are incredibly sad.

Then you take into account her "boyfriend" works at the studio and you can see the difficulties that leaving would entail. I'm sure even with as little common sense as he seems to have, he probably realizes if she ever leaves the studio they don't have much of a future together. Then it would be back to harassing other models and hoping he can trap one in his web like he did April.

And unfortunately, that's what these kinds of people do. They sniff out vulnerable people they can take advantage of, and have no issue doing so.

Some of the models in Allure work from Romania. Tiffany, Gina/Eva, Juliafendi, and Liliraider all work in Romania. Could be more, but I have not seen them or even know if they are with Allure. There are the girls that travel to Romania and back to Ukraine that will cam in both places. I know Kelsi does both.

Sofi wasn't the only girl that tried, AriellaRox also tried for a couple days on MFC then was gone. There are other accounts of Allures that are still active on MFC but have not been logged in for many months if not a year or more. I have almost a dozen still on my friends list. I Assume if Allure tries to use these accounts, they would be shut down also.

This is an assumption, but I think all the girls could go back to working on MFC, but they would have to start individual accounts (if this doesn't violate having multiple account policy). There is also the possibility for them to separate their old accounts from Allure studio account. I have seen girls do this in the past. 
 
Also interesting that it appears they are trying to get brand new models on MFC.

CherieDane. who is part of the Allure Studio group on AdultWork and has been broadcasting on Chaturbate just started broadcasting on MyFreeCams today. 


It looks like there are quite a few profiles of new models set up on the Allure page on AdultWork. Be interesting to see if they start broadcasting on MFC soon and if they stick around.

That was fast. I went to add MFC to Cherie's profile on here and the account was already deleted. According to her MFC stats on this site, she lasted about 90 minutes before they zapped her account: https://mycamgirl.net/stats/myfreecams/cheriedane

Same with the EvaBumm account. Gone.

This should remove any doubt about Allure Studio ever returning to MyFreeCams. At least, legitimately.

Just a guess on my part, but EvaBumm was broadcasting from a new studio, with what I'm assuming was a new IP address. Cherie was a new girl with what I'm assuming was a new IP address broadcasting from a recognized Allure Studio room. 

Might have taken them a bit to realize this. Or maybe they were reported. Whatever it is, they are on MFC's radar.

And that was my first thought when I saw those private/group numbers. All of those earnings are gone.

Just in case anybody was wondering how a girl can get caught up in this world, this is from Allure's public Instagram account. (This has been run through a translator, obviously.)

mzjx8i1airyb.jpg



Girl sees the studio's post on social media, girl gets curious as to what Allure Studio is. So she asks a question, and Allure responds that they are simply a modeling agency who work with girls to make money.

Deceit right from the start.  ;)
 
But they can work in the most beautiful office in town!!! Hahahaha I laugh at this. We will pay you a little more than minimum wage to get naked and get demeaned by all the nasty males that visit all the different sites you will have to work to make a small living. We can sell you booze to help you forget your misery and deduct it from your salary. We can sell you toys and wipes and deduct it from your salary. We can even advance you money on your salary. Now Pay day is here and there is no salary since you used it up on booze, clothing, toys, and wipes to keep yourself clean. Have a nice day, and see you tomorrow and don't forget your smile.

Now all this will repeat itself and it is a never ending cycle. At least the toys will last a while, just hope you clean them well. The studio probably keeps the sanitary wipes companies in business. 

Has anyone noticed that these studios buy the cheapest toilet paper. I don't know how many girls I see with bits of toilet paper when they remove their panties. I laugh at this every time. Come on Studios, buy decent toilet paper for your models. You could invest in some Bidet's.
You have all those sanitary wipes, use those. Teach these girls basic hygiene. "Wipe front to back" "Less make-up is better"
