double-checking verifications is commonplace

It would have been easy to verify if the lady was "ok" or not since she was a member of date-check.  .  

Any woman who gives an OK on a verification site, should expect to be contacted from time to time and should comply without permission given from the hobbyist, this is what verification sites are for...

It could be LE, seeing if she is stupid enough to incriminate herself. It could also be his wife wanting more details to skewer him with.

but LE is certainly one possibility.

Perhaps the guy wants to get some info on another gal and wants to use this guy as a source.

There could be many things.

You advice is spot on.  We have to be careful never to share information with someone we know nothing about.

through the TER handle.  It's probably innocent enough but even if ok, it's better to decline.  It could be LE, a PI or a wife!!  

Just like a call for verification, should give out nothing without checking with the client.

Speaking of DC, there is a "Brazilian" Provider who states that she accepts Date-Check. So, I contacted her via my date-Check account.
Without telling me, she proceeded to contact 3 of my lady vouchers [among 7].
Since they did not know her, they [wisely] denied knowing me, but they were none too pleased!
The ladies called me out for not giving them a heads-up.
One lady explained that she does not give personal references, as that IS the purpose of Date-Check.
Well, I had a lot of apologizing to do, through no fault of my own.
After all this, the Brazilian declined seeing me--just as well. Avoid.

A reference check or an okay is sometimes confirmed.  Why would a lady be offended and take it out on the hobbyist?  She can just tell the lady who asked they don't do personal references or not
respond.
Also when a lady is busted, Uncle LEo tries to get all passwords and info from sites they are a member of.  
And isn't DC one place where we need to be especially careful?
