I wonder if a escort has said no to someone and legally kept the money.

Probably, especially if they've been put in an awful situation. Still, I'm sure it's not that common since they rely on word of mouth or online postings these days. There would be drama within the local circle of both clients and escorts.

A lot of escorts run a tight ship. I'm talking webpages with professional photography done, that sort of thing. They also worry about the safety and job security of members within their community. Someone going rogue is just bad for everyone.

^(I just realized I repeated what another person has already said my bad.)

Certainly for cases where the customer was being an asshole and the escort walked away.

Just for cases where everything was going along fine, probably, but it's not a good way to have repeat business.
