you say you dont want to tip LE off with details because they are watching TER, yet you tell LE to "Go to hell"?

you may want to rethink your strategy

I'm a provider that insists on verification before doing or discussing anything illegal.  I've lost more than one patron out of frustration with my vigilance, which isn't fun for anyone.

I just wanted to write a note on here that I am 99% sure that I recently met with LE.  I don't want to go into specifics because this person is absolutely watching TER and I don't want him to know what tipped me off, but I would be shocked if he wasn't LE.  

I don't want to make anyone paranoid with this post.  There are great ways of verifying and if we all stick with them then we shouldn't have a problem with LE.  That being said, if you can't verify the same way that most of the good gentlemen we service do, then please be understanding that we might be cautious around you.  LE is targeting us too.

PS.  I love fucking for money.  Go to hell LE.

that you went so far as to indulge in an illegal act with this person?

It doesn't make sense-if he was LE why didn't he arrest you?  Did he have a TER handle? Does he have a review record?

maybe you can clear this up

Sexformoneyisfun, PM me.

LOL! Ha Ha! Too Funny! Too agreeable too!

LE is not stupid. I am sure they can use the process of elimination to figure out what unorthodox method of verification which they tried didn't work.

I think your post is designed to get providers who may pursue other methods of verification to tow the line so to speak and to get clients to release more personal information. Conventional methods of verification are not foolproof and LE has penetrated those. It is not that difficult.

My safety is important too. If a provider is not satisfied with the limited amount of information I am willing to share, I am happy to move on. The long or short appointment form on a provider's website is not something I bother with anymore.

I just had a date about a month or so ago with a well reviewed, experienced provider and all she had was my email address. She only got my hobby phone number after I called to let her know I was on my way. She greeted me and referred to me the rest of the date with the name on my email account which was not even close to my real name. Nothing happened!

+1 to that. Also some of us DO know your real names, we just choose to not freak you out or disturb your need for discretion just like we expect you to do the same for us. At least I do anyway

I'm not a client (well, that might change I suppose one day) and am curious about this whole thing, but have done a lot of moral soul searching. The reason I joined TER is to see if the reviews reflect a mutually enjoyable and erotically charged experience for both parties, or if it's a seedy, soulless and exploitative scene.

I can see that it's both and all shades in between. On the one hand, I think it's a serious infringement on civil liberties that the law can dictate under what conditions people have sex, and what we can do with our bodies in a harmless and natural exchange. It feels creepy that LE are interested to the extent that they are and the law is so clearly outdated.

But another poster hit on this - it seems that the law doesn't care about any of that. What they don't want is parts of the city to become a magnet for sidewalk crawlers, pimps (or, ahem, "drivers") and all that goes with that. Why do they come down so hard on it? Because we insist on it, including people on this forum. I wouldn't like it happening next door to me, I'll be honest. Sure, some providers are low-volume and high-class and they are not who I'm referring to here but it's a stretch to expect the law to account for that - it can't. If a provider turns out to be a low-end and high volume operator, we can all imagine what would happen to that street over time if left unchecked. More would arrive. This kind of thing scares businesses away from an area, it would lead to suppressed house prices most probably and give a city a seedy image. Whether that's warranted or true is a matter for debate, but it's a closed subject here in 2011. That's where the problem is for me.

If as a society we were more at ease with ourselves with sex as a subject and this profession without the judgmental subjectivism that always surrounds it, I'm sure the law would reach a different set of conclusions. It's not going away and LE know that so they're caught in the middle playing a game of relentless whack-a-mole. The arguments that prostitution is tangled up with human trafficking and drugs are null and void as those things are illegal anyway - I'm quite sure LE would prefer to focus on that without having to spend time busting some harmless dude with his trousers around his ankles.

So I don't hate LE, they're executing what is in reality, the will of all of us. But at the same time I feel sorry for the provider who is in control of their life and doesn't go about their business in a way that harms anyone else. They get caught up in the same net as other people who really are a problem.

Why the post with an alias? Just wondering ?

But the OP didn't provide enough information IMHO to let us understand what happened.  Did she nearly leg arrested but managed to avoid anything sufficiently incriminating that they didn't take her in?  Did she have a session with someone she suspected was LE and he did what he came there to do and left?  Not enough detail to tell or really learn anything.

This post is either bs, or if it's real it serves no purpose. Not sure what we're suppose take from  this??

I'd be curious what the method was?

And in actuality,I believe, there is no proven method.

Perfectly said.

I thought it was cute!!  hahaha!!

Sometimes LE emails providers in an attempt to get them to come to their hotel room......This has happened to me. Something didnt "FEEL" right. I declined. Another gal later was arrested by the guy with that very email addy. TRUST YOUR GUT GIRLS. Mine is very powerful.

How could LE know who she is?? No problem at all being so ADORABLY BLUNT..I think its a riot!!
And very refreshing!

and not much more.

based on my email address alone.

I put a premium on my safety and more importantly my privacy, it is not something I would trust a provider with. I have heard too many horror stories to know better.

Says the person who probably thinks that proxy servers are impenetrable too...
if LE really wants you they will do so very easily, you can only make it less likely for a sting to happen .

You also dont know what every single provider uses to screen her visitors
so generalized statements like that are moot considering.
Don't think anything you do is foolproof.
