A man’s lengthy advert offering “free sensual massages” to “women of any age” has left locals feeling uncomfortable and looking for creeps.
The note, which urged women “not to be shy”, was taped to an electricity pole on the main street of Murwillumbah, a small town near Byron Bay.
A woman’s protective partner noticed him and tackled him.
The note read: ‘Hello, my name is (redacted), I am a mature man who offers free sensual massages to women from Monday to Thursday.
‘I have a lot of experience and I am discreet. I can be available during the day if required. Age does not matter.
This advertisement was posted on a pole on the main street of a small town.
She detailed how there would be a shower and towels available, adding that she would be happy to meet for coffee or send a photo to make interested women feel more comfortable.
“I am curious and playful, I love sensual touch and giving long, slow massages,” he wrote.
He said he was looking for quality over quantity.
“If you’re feeling stressed and tired or would just love a full body massage, call or text me…take me up on my free offer,” he wrote.
Murwillumbah is just north of the tourist and celebrity hotspot Byron Bay and has a population of approximately 10,000.
The note became hot gossip in the city before being posted online.
Those who saw it were quick to comment on the man’s “giant red flags.”
“Stay tuned for next week’s episode of Criminal Minds,” one woman wrote in the post.
“At first I thought yes, it could be a business, but the more I read, the more I was speechless,” said another.
“He probably uses embalming fluid as massage oil,” a third added.
One claimed the note was simply an “escort service in disguise,” but people criticized that idea.
‘Mistaken. Escorts don’t work for free. “He’s just a creepy guy trying to satisfy a stench he has,” said one.
But some seemed interested.
“Honestly, my back hurts so much that part of me is like…” one woman joked.
‘I’ve only been to Murwillumbah about 10 times and I loved it. Maybe I’ll be back sooner than I thought, thanks,” wrote another.
And for some, the announcement hit too close to home.
“It’s not like I read this and realize my boyfriend has the same name and is from Murwillumbah,” one woman wrote.
