In this post by Anneke in 2007, she's concerned about a lady who sent directions to a client without screening him.

There was a substantial dust-up on the Boston board recently when a girl admitted that she did NO screening.  Some guys might find that pretty cool without giving it much thought.  Easy acces, no problem, right?

Wrong.  A girl in Boston was busted a year or so ago after she took a guy's work info, called the place of work, and let him in.  The phone call she made was to the guy's LE partner.  BUSTED.  Now, how would you like it if YOUR name were in her little black book?

Ladies, please screen thoroughly; guys, be prepared for it.

In the days of Date-Check and Preferred 411 it's easy to be safe.  OH, and guys....treat the ladies right, and a few Whitelists on TER don't hurt either.

I need to use an alias here so everyone can't see the list of providers I've reviewed. When I first started, the couple of providers I gave reference info to never actually contacted my reference - at least according to her. Once I had seen a few providers, I joined date-check and P411. Since then, every provider I've seen requires screening according to her website. I give them my account info for both, but only 3 have actually bothered to view my accounts. I know this since both sites let you know who has viewed your account. Unless there is some way for providers to bypass this that I am unaware of, I'm guessing lack of thorough screening isn't a rare occurence.

Being in her black book? I couldn't care less. I'm not a public figure, so leaking my name to the media would be useless. It's also useless on a criminal level. There are a million legitimate reasons someone has your name and number. If you have an SO, it could be slightly troubling. However, its not like the police will be calling your home and telling your SO it's possible you've been seeing escorts. The lawsuits would be endless.

Are very helpful!

yes this is a high risk topic.  You never know what is behind the other side of the door till it opens.  I would never give out the standard screen info to a provider as I  know what they could do with it.  Now a fair exchage of info maybe.  Not. this is all about no ties or strings.  Yes I do realize that your safety is #1 And if that is your rules I do not have a problem with a I am not going to see you.  my .02

for straightening me out.

For the record, I'm rarely wrong, LOL.  

former English major and I sometimes get chills when I see how the language is frequently mangled on this site (like 'she came out in thigh highs & heals').  Didn't realize Tamara's a Brit, so thanks for that info, some of my favorite providers are Brits.

Not so long ago, I called a provider asking for more information on a gentleman requesting to see me.  She could not remember anything except that she had seen him once and he requested the whitelisting.  This is not my idea of a good protocol for whitelisting.  Any of the men I have whitelisted, I know pretty well.  Meaning, I have seen them several times and know quite a bit about them.  This does not mean that I would ever share sensitive information.  Whitelisting to me is a very serious responsibility, giving my seal of approval.

I do not want to be the reason a lady gets into trouble or hurt.  Since this, I will not accept whitelisting from everyone.  This depends on which provider gave the whitelist.
