but you can always improve your odds.

You started already by sticking to a well reviewed provider.

Incall has a little more risk than outcall because if she is in cahoots with the cops, then they can have the place cased.

Nevertheless be aware of anything that doesn't look right.

Keep up to date with the boards, and if there is any reports of unusually active LE activity, especially stings, that is not a good time to meet a new provider.

The first tip off is always any attempt to get you to discuss any specific act for money whether on the phone, email or in person.

Also, case out the parking lot of the hotel and the surrounding streets.  If you see either marked cruisers parked around or unmarked cars (Look for the whip antennae, lights in the rear package shelf and Ford Crown Vic's with cheapo or missing hubcaps.)

If you see anything like that, call and cancel or postpone.

The odds are never zero, but you can improve your odds considerably by some common sense precautions.

(Still not a lawyer.)
