Let's say someone visited a provider and said provider had some issues resulting in some noteriety. Should the individual who only visited one time be concerned?

You never know what information gets leaked. Just make sure you get a lawyer and take the 5th if asked any questions. Sometimes LE goes on fishing information to get information to get more folks in trouble.

NO!!!   Not gonna happen unless you are a politician or high ranking person in the government.  It is not worth the  trouble to call, too hard to prove YOU did anything but want a companion for dinner or some company.  No witch hunts!!  Just have fun and go see someone and enjoy.

LE issues in ATL?  Was thinking of a hobby trip but, if it's too hot I won't.  PM or reply please.

Good to know and probably right.  Recent activity reported today does raise a few concerns though, especially if frequent visits had been made.

Thanks for the replys

No paper trail to follow here

Your claim is the same of every agency owner.  Nobody keeps any records, it's all stored up in the ole memory brain bank.  How does one keep track of all those phone numbers, names and email addresses?  It's impossible without keeping records.  

You know that wickedly irresistible site Facebook, hookers cant resist advertising, in spite of it being a primarily mainstream, family oriented web space?  Guess what, LE has FB pages too. You should check out city of Dunwoody FB page before you start handing out frivolous advise JPW. Besides, don't you have another meet n greet to organize?

On the integrity of those questioned. They either talk or they don't but with that many mixed nuts in the can, my money is on more arrests.

If you conversed with client by email it is documented whether you delete or not. Don't be naive. The trick in this business is not covering your tracks because that is impossible. The key is to not be a target and if you are an agency, you are a target.

Its over 150 i have an Eidetic memory. Before I started my agency in 2006 I worked in the office for another agency & they actually put every detail from every phone call in the computer (kind of like Al Capone's ledgers lol) . Thats what I meant by no paper trail  I don't document anything but I understand u guys point  

anyone who has a tendency to be a rat will start talking as soon as a sweet deal is made.  

and some honest discussion and opinion about the past few days.  Seems we could be looking out for each other a little more than spamming simple queries.  I'm not sure how much to be concerned...

TER was intended to help hobbyists to hobby safely. If we can't share info about an agency bust then what is the point of having a local discussion board? Besides "dick size" posts.

That LE is way more interested in the agency and not the people that patronize them. I mean come on they are listing the employees as victims ! They are not being charged and if they are not being charged I doubt they are going on a witch hunt looking for the patrons. I agree with Alias and WCM that this thread should stay alive as we need to be in the know also since we all have our concerns...... Some people not much and some way more but each person has them.

I just watched the news video about the busts on the AJC website. I can't stand the media.

Keep in mind, it's election day next week. This always seems to crop up around that time. Coincidence?

hint hint

I just read this on the WSBTV website:

It is done to justify spending for Vice. That town has 30 vice officers. Been hot for a very long time. They have been know to watch some hotels 24x7. You can see the media and the people being interviewed gloating....

It's always about money...
In this case, ratings =money.

Yes and the victims will remain victims so long as they can contribute to the ongoing investigations.  
Too bad handing out green cards can't help this time.  
But I would say don't do anything careless and
Remember to have fun

Unless there is a video, there is no proving anyone was there.

Silliness

Subversive acts (including aiding those involved in cash only businesses) are considered to be potential acts of terrorism... thus the NSA metadata collection servers. Seriously, actually read some of the Guardian stuff Snowden released.  
Most guys don't use burner phones...  so your texts, phone call records from ATT/Verizon, browser history from that same carrier, etc. may be easier to access than you think. Since only the IRS & State Dept can effectively lose emails, those emails will be confiscated as well. Remember that the Feds hit last week, not a County or state patrol. Feds have access to much more info that local yokels.
Also, Remember that the Court of Public Opinion does not require a jury nor judge, only prosecution. Cops say they busted a drug ring, most of us (and everyone else) think they must have something substantial to make the accusation.  
 In the case of last week, where some ppl here intimately know those involved, very few ppl (mainly here on TER) know than it's a bunch of hooey.  
Not saying that we should wear tinfoil hats, but part of this hobby is what we call Consenting Adults, the Law calls a crime. If they concentrate on us, they can and will find us.  
Never underestimate the reach of BIG BROTHER. Not yet 1984, but we're getting there.

And at that time I used a credit card plus it was all.out call to a hotel. I never heard a thing from LE.

Should have disputed CC charge, claiming fraud as you would never patronize such a disgusting business, giving you cover and deniability...haha.

What I understand the investigation and time to file charges could take months so most likely nothing will happen for some time.

are the guys who saw the underage gal, the article says they are looking for rats to cooperate with uncle L.  

Who was the underage girl.

Per TER any discussion of delisted providers/agencies is not allowed on the site

Damn . First I heard of all this. Just sent an email to that agency this afternoon asking why no schedule.

And they are going after the clients.  Since this is media this will be a huge case.  Everyone that was a client can expect to hear something from le soon.  Heard this from my attorne

as much as I love agencies that would basically put an end to them in Atlanta. Hopefully they don't go after any guys, and besides trying to embarrass them all they could get is a solicitation charge.

They can stir up trouble for anyone, sure. But putting someone at a certain place at a certain time and proving what went on will be very hard.

and the electronic trial or emails, phone calls etc of anyone who used their real info.  A preponderance of evidence can lead to a lot of trouble.  Not to mention just being charged and your name appearing in public records is enough of a problem for many, it doesn't need to lead to conviction.

Still I'm no physic so I can't predict the outcome.  If something does happen the word will spread like a wildfire.  

why would your lawyer know this?

Let's define incriminating.  The police can arrest you based on your communication with the agency but that had better be some very incriminating conversation like you explicitely stated you wished sexual favors for money.  Supplying info to be screened or emails setting up an appointment would not be enough evidence for arrest.  However, you might be put on the police radar for a while.  I speak from experience.  If they do arrest based on meaningless conversation, LE would be opening themselves up for lawsuits based on unlawful arrest and/or harassment.  If I was arrested for just setting up an appointment or providing info to screen, you bet I would sue for unlawful arrest, false accusation and defamation of character.  And most likely for lost wages and future income being impacted by my inability to find better jobs due to an unjustified arrest record.  (And yes, a good lawyer is worth their weight in gold)  Regarding conviction, financial forensics could be applied but only if a trail was left like credit card.  I've read that this is a cash only business so if that is the case, there is no forensic evidence unless you were caught red handed forking over cash.

Totally agree with the conclusion that LE frequently monitors this board.  And, providers should assume that LE frequently monitors any Providers-only boards.  Being careful is safer

I was only screened by this agency but never made it to Atlanta. Email record shows regrets for not being able to pick date / time. Any cause for concern? Never mentioned any sexual act for money in emails.
