Full name, copy of your driver's license, workplace information to these people?

It creeped me out, the usual verification sites should be enough. Does anyone know if they are real or not?

I think too many cave in to intrusive methods so agencies keep doing it.  I guess there's room for all kinds of business models, but agencies like this won't be getting my business.

They ask for the name listed on the DL. Any provider or agency asking for a copy of one's DL will certainly never get my business.  

Nope, only idiots do that.  good luck not gettting blackmailed morons!!!

Because the verification sites have been infiltrated. And would you risk your freedom based on the "OK" of a stripper or escort that might have been compromised?  

We only ask for a DL if you provide us with a name like John Johnson or some really difficult generic name..It is almost impossible to screen a name like that. So all we can do is ask for a DL or refuse service...and so we give the clients the option before we say no.
We are flooded daily with fake id's and fake names..and so it is dangerous times..

I've gotten to the point where I won't even divulge my full name.  They get my P411 information and if that's not sufficient enough (90% of the time it is), then I politely decline and move on to someone else.

Asking for a copy of the DL is ridiculous. Also asking for photos of the client is crazy as well. I've seen too many times where a guy's personal info has been posted on a public site. There are plenty of ladies out there that will accept P411, RS2K, Date Check, and/or provider references.
