I always appreciate a different point of view 
I know this question has been asked before but, bear with me please...I get emails from gentlemen such as: So and So knows me by my screen name, Joe Blow and she will give me a reference. Well I ask for his real info and NADA. Did the lady in question not check it?
Another scenario...emails along the line of "I've seen your great reviews but, where are you located?" Well if you have seen my reviews then you must have seen my website address posted with them. Why not check and see if I am close to you?
I usually just send my link back.
I can only speak for myself but I may ask where are you located in the city, since Charlotte is so large I look for someone close. Could take an hour to get to a location.
Why in the world would you think that I'm in Charlotte? GEEZ
I was only trying to help, what I meant is if I looking at a provider in Charlotte, and since Charlotte is a big city I would ask your location, North, South, East, West. That would help determine whether or not it would be convenient to see the provider. I don't know where you live at, I was trying to give you our or at least my perspective.
But, no I'm not near Charlotte...
Short answer at the end.
There was a lady in the largest NC city that assured discretion. I do not think she was on this site. When she got busted the police specifically mentioned finding some cash and her book of clients. Names, phone numbers and OTHER information. I looked for the old news article but could not find it. I realize that security and trust are big issues and some do not want to comply.
A question that I would like answered but probably should not be here is how would you or anyone else both have all the needed info for a good reference and not have records that con be discovered or hacked?
There are a few that have my info. I hope I can trust all of them. Those few and P411 are what I wish to use. that and seeing them again for the most part.
As for another not screening, that is between us. I know that people want others to be safe, but it is a one way street. My getting caught is not likely to get all the ladies I have seen exposed. The wrong lady getting caught with a little black book of personal information is what news and leo careers are made on.
I would hope that my favorite lady would not tell anyone my information. I am not going to share any information about her that she trusted me with or that I learn by accident.
As Fred said, Have safe and be fun.
Why would I want to keep that information? I didn't keep any from the first time I was a companion. I now have P411 as well and have stated on my site that I can use that information to screen.
The form is built in to the web design that I use now, last time I didn't use a form. Too bad alot of my friends are no longer around or they could speak up and verify that I am very discreet.
Wouldn't a prospective client be wary of a Lady that didn't ask for screening? You know setups and all that?

I am not trying to pick a fight or cause a fuss, just offering a possible explanation. If I trust someone with my info and they say they will delete it after screening or never share it, then unless they remember my name how can they tell you much more than ok or not ok? As for me I want to share as little as I can and still make you comfortable with seeing me. If I feel that a web form wants to much I may ask for alternate screening. I am by no means an expert and please do not take offence at what I said. Just offering ideas.
As for location, I had to google that town and to my surprise you are much closer than I thought.
Stay safe and have fun.

Well, let me say this: You are in a customer service business. To complain about a prospective client that contacts you regarding where are you located is petty. Maybe this person is new to the hobby, old as hell, or whatever. I would think that answering a simple question would not be too much to ask.
If he said he read your great reviews that does not mean he has been to your site
On your review profile it only says Carolinas
Maybe for your other city you should add Morganton
if you don't want to answer the questions they ask, it's your choice
It doesn't do much good to complain on here.
It's up to you to make the moves
If you want the business you reply with kindness and direction
If you don't want to bother with it, hit delete

I always appreciate a different point of view
We are all guilty of asking stupid questions from time to time. If we can answer them without making the asker feel too bad that is a win-win.
For example, there is a big difference between "My location is on my website. Here is the link." and "Didn't you read my website, asshole?"
I try to be nice to everyone but, after bout the 10th time I kinda get sassy and brassy
...that he should've read my pretty website I took the time to put together. There's a nifty calendar/schedule section I keep pretty updated too. But it's still not uncommon to have someone say they saw me post on TER or they saw my reviews only to ask me where i'm located because they didn't even bother to look at my website lol.
