Just texting with an Agency friend of mine. He said the cops are using Eros. Said they busted 50 people last week. Be careful folks!

How to minimize risk?  P411 a good way of minimizing risk?  Meet in public first?   Both side of equation likely worried.

If true, the approach would be to pick some P411 candidates and ensure they are NOT on Eros, as there is overlap.  Who is to say P411 is not also being used?  I just met with a stunning visiting lady yesterday, her general location advertised and face pics provided on Eros.  Not an easy woman to overlook passing by and she's making outcalls.  This was very risky if someone was on the prowl for her.  What kind of world are we living in?

I keep an eye on Florida and noticed a couple ladies busted for massage without a license which is a felony in this state and first time arrest for prostitution. Some street busts as well.

 
I would not be surprised if EROS isn't a target after their offices being raided this past year. No more backpage they need a target to shoot at. Stay safe

So is the general consensus that p411 does good vetting.  The fact that Eros should do good vetting but LE is still able to implement stings is not particularly encouraging.  Just trying to provide the perspective from their side of the fence.

For a police department with resources, cuffing participants off sites like EROS and Slixa is like shooting fish in a barrel.  You do realize cops no longer have the low hanging fruit of CL and BP?  Where do you think they are now focusing their efforts to boost arrest stats, church socials?

Multiple okays given, sign up date on P411, and supplemental information from other sites, is what vets the providers for me going forward.

JLS has made some rather dumb statements herself on this thread like her idiotic statement about Atlanta being the "trafficking capital (sic) of the US" but even she isn't so fucking dumb as to conflate EROS, Slixa and P 411.

 
NEVER did she say that Eros was "safe" what she said, and her post is still there for all to see, is that if you find a provider on Eros you can cross check to see if she is also on P 411 which is even SAFER today than it was in the past since they are no longer accepting new members, male or female alike.

 
You are pretty new here and you have made a LOT of very stupid assumptions like your post that "assumes" that if a woman were flying into Atlanta that she most like had made a connection and had been traveling for over three hours. That was an incredibly dumb statement too, but nowhere near as fucking stupid as your last post.  

 
Do us all a favor and at least try to rent a clue before opening your mouth on such subjects. Ignorance is often fun to laugh at, but on some subjects such as the community trying to adapt to the new post FOSTA/SESTA realities, ignorant statements like yours simply can't go unchallenged, so PLEASE just STFU about things that you know nothing about.

 
And please GFY for making me take JLS's side on this. I would normally rather remove my own kidney with a spoon that agree with her, but this just had to be said.

The Flea Collar bust from many years ago did have an LE ad on Eros with a beautiful young women who had a very nice website. Problem was no reviews and this hindered the whole operation. They did get a few guys but not what they hoped for.

 
Now ads are not put up on EROS without ID checks. New ladies who can't be at least googled to find some history won't get the seasoned hobbiest but they will get the ones who are inexperienced.  

 
Adultsearch is the new backpage for the moment. It is much more open than backpage has been in over a year. Nudity is allowed as well as prices. I think this is the low hanging fruit that is an easier mark and also the best place for them to setup a reverse sting.

 
Hope you don't mind me joining in Florida is dead... Stay safe and use whatever method works best for you.

You do realize you have just proven my point of how nasty a town Atlanta truly is?  Probably not.  If P411 thought themselves immune to infiltration of some fashion, there would have been no need to halt new membership.  What kind of business closes its doors to paying customers and stops stocking product?  Perhaps a common business model in a crap town like Atlanta, but ineffective in most livable cities.

P 411 not only is not an Atlanta company, but they aren't even located in the US.  

 
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE do us all a favor and just STFU. It's obvious you don't have a fucking clue as to how this business works and you are too busy running your fucking mouth to ever learn. Your posts make me thankful that Gina closed off new memberships so I can be sure we won't have idiots like you fucking up a good thing. Now please fuck off. or just go fuck yourself, whichever strikes your fancy. Just do it somewhere else for fucks sake.

..read some of your previous posts. I did of course consider you are simply an inadequate troll but I have to agree with GaGambler. You are simply clueless about this enterprise and have No business doing anything here but reading to learn. In the past it wouldn't have been nearly as bad for there were plenty of others to counter you but as things are now we don't need anyone spouting foolishness such as that which has come from your mouth in these posts. Some of the things you have said here are beyond belief. I'm left just shaking my head at the ignorance.

 
There is nothing worse than someone speaking as if they know what they are talking about and clearly do not. If you'd like to use my response here as evidence of Atlanta's nastiness you are welcome to but consider I'm speaking out to ensure others don't start listening to you and wind up in a hell of a mess due to your complete lack of knowledge. It's perfectly OK to be new and trying to figure things out but speaking as if you already know is the height of ignorance.  

He who knows nothing and knows he knows nothing, knows something. He who knows nothing and thinks he knows something, knows nothing.

...for this statement: ..."especially in Atlanta, the trafficking capital of the US."

Such a narrow view for some.

 
What lies in future for owners of BP none here can say. What happen in past is easy to research. Like Gag has said in past, when someone says something on fucking internet, SOMEONE or multiple SOMEONE will preach what they read as absolute truth. Perhaps it is truth, but perhaps its only part truth.

 
So many small minded people look only in their own back porch. Open your eyes and do your research. BP hired people in foreign countries ( mostly Asia ) to recondition the ADs people posted. Many who do not open eyes never realize how big BP was in big Asian cities like HK, SG and Manila. Or even in smaller cities in those countries. a 15 year old Asian girl to many of you looks no different than a 20 year old Asian girl. And trust in me when I say many Asian girls were on BP.  

 
BP hired people or a company I don't remember which in both HK and outside Manila to clean up Ads. Their job was to teach the people who post the Ad how to word it so its not obvious they are underage. This was made multiple news and articles all through Asia and you can google all of this and see its fact not internet fact.  

 
BP owners were not charge with being an escort, they charged with:

Federal authorities have charged the two founders of classified site Backpage.com, along with five other employees, with laundering money and facilitating prostitution. According to The xxxxxxxxxxx Post, the Justice Department claims Backpage took “consistent and concerted action” to knowingly allow ads for illegal sex work. The indictment alleges that “virtually every dollar flowing into Backpage’s coffers represents the proceeds of illegal activity.”

 
They took no action to make sure no minors, and the allowed very graphic Ads outside the US and sometimes even in the US. They should have been charge with facilitating the trafficking of minor if such a charge exists. I belive sites like EROS and P411 resonable safe because they take very much an effort make sure no minors. You can have IQ below 50 and know exactly what is being advertised.  

 
Just my opinion

Yes, I know you said it isn't the one you were referring to. I believe I found that one. (I also found the one you linked here.)

Actually I found about 3 pages of them on a duckduckgo search. (I hate google and won't use any of it's services unless it's the only option.) I found nothing newer than the year 2014 using the term "No. 1",  "Capitol", and/or "Hub" except for a 2018 CBS46 repeat of their 2014 story. Most referred to a study done on 8 major cities from 2003 to 2007. So I guess we were the no. 1 of the 8 that were studied. Wonder about other major cities that weren't studied? What about something more recent?

Yes, trafficking is a problem. We knew that. It's deplorable and I can't imagine anyone here doesn't think so. It's obvious this is a problem for Atlanta, Georgia, the rest of the country, and world. I don't take issue with that and I didn't take it personally when you posted it but I just knew there was more. I think you should have done some explaining. For you to drop that bomb and pass it off as settled is irresponsible. Though I guess we can blame that on the hyperbole of the press in these times. I hope you didn't take this statement, Atlanta is the trafficking capitol of the U.S. , at face value.  

I'm going to post a link here and then post a link to an opposing view as a reply.

...explaining the narrow scope of the study this idea came from.

Seems unlikely the cops could post an ad on Eros. Unless a lady cop is willing to send a pic of her driver license which also matches the name on the debit card she used to pay the $180 for the ad. Yes, this is what we ladies have to do to post on Eros now.

Also, I'm always checking the mugshot websites. I didn't see anywhere near 50 pandering or prostitution charges come through mid-May.

Please double check when you hear something like this before passing it on. Misinformation hurts us all. It causes panic and paranoia, which makes us less safe and less profitable. Remember the old saying, "Loose lips sink ships."

If you really want to remain safe, look up the lady on here. If she didn't move to Canada you can still see how many stars are next to her name.

END OF MESSAGE

Correct, all the paranoia is frustrating. And NO. Going on p411 won't minimize your risk of being busted.
As that site has had it's fair share of cops infiltrating  profiles , for years!!!!

The BEST way to AVOID being busted is to STOP bitching your asses off about being screened.
And just freakin provide the required screening to the lady/s you want to see.
Let HER verify that you're SAFE to see, that you ARE the guy your references saw. (And not a cop pretending to be you) (like has happened countless times on p411).

The best method for both you and the ladiez. Is ehen the ladies communicate with each other and verify you (in every hobby aspect way).

But no. Most men want yo bitch and moan about screening yet they're paranoid about getting busted.

Sorry to say. Ya'll don't get to have it both ways.
And more and more ladies are clicking the (ignore) button on these type of men.

Buck up and stop bitching and get screened. And you'll have nothing to be paranoid about.
Continue bitching,  go see someone who never screens. And her last client just might be the cop laying in wait to bust you as you bust a nut.

I wish clients understood that discretion is not the same as anonymity. Sooner or later they most understand and being aware that by seeing girls who are not careful - you also put yourself at risk.

Sure, i could take the risk and probably make a killing, but its not worth it to me. I personally wont ever be on eros.  My attorney has advised me to stay away from eros even if it is one of the only sites left. To me; being safe is more important than $.
