The sky has not fallen and yes, this was from 2014. Just an interesting read. Maggie had had many great posts over the years.
One of the things I went through recently was contacting a few on a board that has been known to have troubled providers and posers. Scared the shit out of me. End result was safe, but not my usual way of conducting business. I prefer to stick with ladies on p411, some on TER. I also had a falling out with someone I truly cared about and became someone I did not like or recognize. I let my desires and passion for sex get the better of me. I have been in and out of this for 15 years. Sharing too much I know, but need to get this out and have few in my personal life I can talk to. No one understands, nor should they. Thus my readings of many blogs and some books recently. I did not mean for this string to cause any fear, just spark some conversation.

OMG! WTF now that is why buzz provider I sure was taken down
I have a p411 account which I suspended a few weeks ago while I deal with some personal issues. I will reopen it when and if I am ready to. It had nothing to do with this blog. I met a few amazing women on that site. I think there are potential pitfalls anywhere or with any service.
I made a stupid mistake a few weeks ago which has caused me to rethink how and why I engage in this hobby. Was doing some reading and came across this blog.
Tons of good reading out there and I have learned a lot from reading Maggie McNeil's various blogs.
P411 has its perks but it is not the end all, be all. Don't forget that it is Gina's business and she has made no secret of her greed over the past six months. She has significantly raised the price for gentleman and doubled the price of ads for providers. The only person she is truly concerned about is herself. Do I think she is actively undermining her own site by making deals?
Well, yes and no. I do not think she is so blatant about it but she is slacking significantly on checking info from guys and also not heeding provider warnings. If a guy has two providers to vouch for him, he can bypass the workplace employment totally. I actually didn't know that until recently. That is really concerning because I often have guys I saw once, two years ago send me vouch requests so they can get accounts. I always deny them because it is against my policy. But I've actually had one client offer to pay me for a vouch. I alerted Gina because I found that to be very concerning. She didn't really seem to care and I'm not sure what happened with all that.
I've also come across gentleman who have more than 5 blacklists for varying offenses, anywhere from rape, robbery, bbfs requests, multiple nc/ns who still have P411 handles that are active. Gina makes no bones about not caring about those kinds of things, she just wants to keep the cash rolling in.
Excellent Post. Safety and security should come first.
as a website or a personal account that cannot be infiltrated by LE in some manner. It DOES happen from time to time, and anyone who thinks every hobby site is not infiltrated by brother LEO is being a bit naive.
I don't buy the conspiracy theory that Gina is a secret agent for the FBI. Tens of thousands of legit meets every year, and a few LE incidents among them? What are the odds? Hell, we have examples of LE taking over sites and how they do it (think Redbook on the west coast more recently).
Overall, I find it old news. In fact, the blog piece was published over a year ago, and relates incidents that are even older.
The sky hasn't fallen. Nothing has changed.

Gina even responded to this very blog when it was written. I don't believe she is working with the FBI either, and a lot of it just rumors. I don't agree with everything done on P411, but that is her rules, so if you want to advertise on there, you have to play by her rules.
I would be HIGHLY surprised if Gina was working with the Feds. She's based in Canada, so she'd really have no reason to, plus a lot of the so-called "proof" in that blog seems pretty circumstantial at best. I'm not one for conspiracy theories anyway.
LE has already successfully infiltrated P411 without Gina's help. It's not hard to get an account on there. The info on her servers probably isn't going to help in a criminal case regardless, so it seems highly unlikely that the Feds would even bother. It'd be too much manpower for very little return.
