Our ability to tolerate risks varies from one person to another acceding to our circumstances and ability to absorb the impact being outed perhaps some years from now.
I have no doubt these referral services have helped countless of subscribers up to now. But , it takes one bust to have the wall tumbling down. Anyone subscribing should do so with his eyes wide open, and needs to know all possible implications, after that he is free to do whatever works for him.
I have never been with a provider before, so I don't have any references. How does one enter this hobby without references? Am I required to first visit an provider who does not ask for references?
I've noticed that there are multiple verification websites, such as P411 - what are the most frequently-used screening websites that I should get myself set up on?
Are there any independent providers in Los Angeles who don't put their visitors through a screening process? Can you direct me towards any of them?
A little work and effort will give you the info you need. Go to the newbie board and do a search for topics there.
Noone will just give you snsitive information like that. Do some research and you will be rewarded.
Beemer
Do NOT see someone who does not screen. If a provider so desperate putting her own life at risk to make a buck, do you want to be in the same room with her? If she doesn't care about being busted, raped or killed do you think she cares about you? Those are the ones most likely to be pimped, get busted by LE, flipped and used to bust guys who don't do their research. You should join P411, get screened, see someone who is newbie friendly. That's not the same as someone who doesn't screen. She will screen you using other methods. Once you have okays on P411 you can start seeing most reputable providers.
Providers who depend on other providers, or P411 & Date-Check some have management, or pimps, so let's not all jump for joy about providers who screen.
I can do my own homework, and have no problem putting forth a little effort to make screening for newbies a breeze.
You guys are hilarious the way you assume all the time.
There is a HUGE difference between no references and no screening.
Each of the twins manage their business like a business - they are in it for the long haul.
When I started in the hobby, I (obviously) had no references. I posted a "looking for newbie friendly" message and was responded to almost immediately. After a 30-45 minute phone call and some follow-up, I had an appointment, and subsequently, a reference.
Was it a thorough screen ? Absolutely !
Also one of the most fun screening processes I've ever had in the hobby.
Will every provider do this ? No. Only the good ones who care about their business and the hobby - a fact for which we should all be grateful.
Why trust, or rely on references of a provider whom you have never met?
I require a 50% deposit to book.
No provider is worth the risk of joining and online referral service or completing an online screening on a providers or any other website like P411 & Date-Check . Irrespective of any assurances you might get your personal information is at risk and will be online ready to destroy you and your life at a stroke.
Call around , be polite , courteous and patient and you will break-in , this is even applies to the cherish and sought after K-dolls.
Any provider who asks for a down or advance payment is more than likely attempting to part a fool from his money.
Good luck mate , remember perseverance pays off.

I use p411 ands its been a great resource, especially when I look for playmates that travel, or when I travel out of town. I have never had any problems with it.
You haven't had any problems with it...yet. I used to have an associate who worked at one of the secret agencies and he told me (and it doesn't take this kind of credible source to figure this out) that if you think your information is not going through large scale observation and analytics programs, you're not too smart and most likely get busted. The only thing stopping them from busting everyone is limited resource resulting in going after the big fish first. Hopefully you won't get caught up in anything. 
I use P411 when I travel and never have a problem. And please enough with the kgirl shilling "this is even applies to the cherish and sought after K-dolls". We get it, really we do.

U should look at the newbie boards, but there are plenty of gals who would be more than happy to run their own screening. Just reach out to a few.
Le VIP Collection screens for A LOT of independent providers. Try calling them, as they thoroughly screen employment, and don't always require references. They are also a great reference to have when you are looking at provides that are not in their network.
Good luck!
