I am brand new to this hobby and have been reading the postings here for quite some time.  I have gotten some great advice and have even become a VIP member because most people here say it is the best idea.  My question is: I just called my first provider today and we have a meeting tomorrow.  She has two reviews and the two reviewers have at least 5-10 reviews to there name, so I thought that she will be safe to go with.  When I called her I was ready to give my full name, place of employment, and its phone number.  After I talk to her for some time she asked me what my name was and I just gave her my first name.  That was all of the "verification" process that she needed.  I emailed both of the reviewers (basically I just asked for there experience with her and what they thought of her) and both mentioned that they did not have to go through a verification process.  And now the question: is this girl safe to see or could it be a LE trap.  I would go somewhere else, but she is the only provider that is within 2 hours of where I live.  She has a website and is on three different review sites all with positive reviews, and on one she is a VIP member.  She also states that she has been in the business for 1 year.  I thank you all for your help and apologize for this being so long.
