At first I thought I would have to find a providor based on cost regarding safety and reputation quality. I am not rich so I decided to go with a service that specialized in Brazilians which seemed decent 30\$150 60\$200.  It was cheaper that the typical rate especially for a nice looking providor. They gave me a shot with no references, since I have only been to Asian Massage places(Newbie. I figured based on cost maybe the service or agency would be less credible, dirty, unattractive ladies, bad service. I was nervous as hell, very nervous! I got there and the place was decent, people friendly and the girls OMG. Bas Ass! Fine! Maybe not the most seasoned pro's but willing as hell, responsive and friendly, great attitude. Very safe as well. Cover was out immediately! Did I just get lucky? My goal is to be able to see a woman twice a month for $300 or two 30 minute sessions. I think I am set. Am I missing something? These ladies are nice, young and fine and definitely not $300 an hour or more. Newbie's luck???

Sometimes you get MORE than what you paid for, like an unexpected visit from federal agents.

And …. As digits eluded to a bust, talk about a sure fire way to get some attention !! Being at a location that is busted could seriously define your position within the community.  

I don’t think many new hobbyists understand the difference between being in the company of an independent provider who has the unfortunate attention of local L/E and a client being in the presence of a Federal bust of an organization involving illegal workers.

Your first consideration is the fact that the location has several women working in it which adds to the danger of infiltration by L/E and the possibility of L/E actually arriving while you are at the location.

Of course depending on the screening and the business procedures of the organization you could definitely be placing yourself in a more vulnerable position.

As you noted with your post…. Many times you are not just compensating a provider for her time, you are also taking into consideration her reputation, her business practices and her mannerisms.

Sometimes I am amazed at the risks an otherwise intelligent, successful man might expose his lifestyle to in the name of casual sex…… It isn’t necessary with all of the tools available and the avenues of information to research an individual provider who is in the hobby…….

Play safe & know your provider (*and her reputation*)  Kisses ~Tori

Good point, although the article posted was more focused on large scale million dollar cartel driven human smuggling in Arizona, not necessarily a small scale established apartment sized bordello with illegals in a random aparmtent in Fulton County. In an area very saturated with providors I might add. I would still may not want to risk that and it is always a slightl possiblity though. Sandy Springs/Dunwoody and North Atl areas are not too bad per public record for prostitution busts. As a matter of fact there are allot of reports of cops shaking down providors for sex. Luckily the offense of pandering Code Sections 16-6-9 through 16-6-12 in the State of Georgia is a misdemeanor a $1000 fine is still a tough lesson though. Another question would be the all too visible "Asian Spa's" many have been around for  a while. Cops are either idiots(which they are not atleast most of them) or on the take, to pass these places up on a daily basis. They are to frequent and in full public view. Many of the women in the Spa's are fresh off the boats and from experience many of them know about twenty words of English. So I am sensing more dynamics at play here than just an "ICE" bust as your picture represents. Not so simple here. I think independents may be more scrutanized. They seem to be the ones most worried. When you walk into a Spa that is clearly marked as a Spa on "let's say "Roswell Rd" a main thorough fair that has been in business for about 5 years or more with "I support local" whatever cop district stickers" on the front door brimming with illegals....It makes you wonder.......Ayyyy? They ain't too worried. But based on the allerts posted on Craigs list it looks like the local DA has a hard on, more than literally for independents. What's up with that?  

What??  Not "small scale established apartment sized bordello with illegals in a random apartment in Fulton County?"  Are you kidding?

You must not have been paying attention earlier this year when the ICE-led joint task force busted multiple independent brazilian shops in Atlanta, Roswell, and Sandy Springs that were EXACTLY like those you describe above.  Some were charged with human slavery, others were detained, others were deported, and some still remain in custody six months later.

The posted link pointed to the ICE web site main page, not to a particular story.  Look around the site if you want details on the multiple busts from earlier this year, or check out the AJC archives.  And wake up to reality.

Ok well I have checked the I.C.E. web page and the AJC archives both blog and articles. The closest thing I have found to what you're referring to is a child sex raid. A few massage parlor busts but those were local vice and they busted one of their own. I am not saying there is not danger. But when you make a claim I like to see proof since it would state that this area is very "hot". I like to find a corner stone to base my angst. I am from Chi town where prostitution, unless it's in a high rent area or there are street walkers, is about as common as the neighborhood dely in some areas. You would think vice has enough to worry about around here with all these MF'rs popping each other. They certainly use their firarms around here!

Pretty common knowledge in the Atlanta area, however.  See the thread below for a hint of what happened; only a tip of the iceberg.

See below, since you seem to have a whole lot more attitude than search skills.  They have been back twice since then.

Point taken and you have provided the facts. This place is a hot spot for the hobby. Too bad! I thought maybe it had a little something on the "Chi" other than the cost of real estate and weather. Damn shame I was getting my hopes up. I guess maybe that's why I was being stubborn.
Your point well taken sir! Looks like I should find a differen't hobby! This place is all hemmed up.
