it = being from an actual customer's experience[/b]?

Context:

When an SP (Service Provider: aka hooker, escort, etc) provides a third person recount of her/his services on a review board (i.e. www.perb.ca) under the context of it being from an actual customer's experience.

A shill could look something like this. "Hi, my name's Bob and I'm a long time lurker first time poster. Despite previous negative reviews I saw Brandie and she fucked me rotten, I've never had such a good experience. I think everyone should see her and spend their hard earned money."

@oristarA,

"It" refers to the third-person recounting of the hooker's services. In other words, the hooker is providing a testimony of her services but is pretending that the testimony is coming from someone else.

Thank you.

Got it, though not very clearly.

@oristarA,

It's not a very well written sentence to begin with (actually, it's not even a full sentence), so that may be why it's still unclear. The phrase "under the context of" was a bad choice. A slightly better way of rendering the sentence would be this:

When an SP (Service Provider: aka hooker, escort, etc) provides a third person recount of her/his own services on a review board (i.e. www.perb.ca), giving the illusion of an actual customer's experience...
