What is the best way to ensure an advertising provider isn't a sting?  She has a very long and involved website but no reviews anywhere.  She has posted near identical ads in two different cities.  Any advice or should I run?

As a girl took a chance on me with no reviews I did the same on someone with no reviews. She had no idea what to do and needed a lot of instructions. A douche will take advantage of her inexperience in this world. I would give her a go.  

Will it ruin your life if you were arrested and the arrest was made public?

ToFTT is up to you.  
Some of the vets here seem able to sniff out a legit escort, i cannot.

There are LOTS of great women out there...with reviews.  How can it possibly be worth it to go with one with no reviews?  The risk is high -- it could be a sting, it could be rip off -- and the benefits are not going to be any better than with others, especially those that are highly reviewed.

Is she on one of the verification services? P411, date-check, RS2000? If yes, she is probably legit and the worst that could happen is she doesn't look like her pictures, or has poor service, or possibly up sells.  

The first people I met with all took a chance as it takes a little while before reviews trickle in, and I can confidently say that none of them wanted to be outed (high profile jobs, married, etc).  One person completely took a chance, but we did have a lot of email communication before we met. A couple were local, and we agreed to meet informally first; I knew that upon meeting me it would be clear that I was not LE and unlikely to be part of a sting.  Another was not local, but I was able to disclose something from my main line of work that >99.9% of LE would have no clue about.  If it's someone you really would like to see, maybe you can get creative.

Thanks for the input, I'm gonna run.  Just looked and sounded fun.  BTW, would it change anything if there are nude photos of her on her website?  I guess it would be less likely to be a LE sting, but still could be a trap.  That and it was going to be at a hotel kinda made me nervous.  I have a couple regulars that have their own places.  I just like experiencing new things.

but walking or at least waiting would be a prudent course of action, and NO, nude photos don't mean a thing. Let's suppose for the moment it is a sting, LE could quite easily post stock nude photos lifted off the internet, just like any other B&S provider. By the time you figure out it's not the woman in the pics, you are already in cuffs.

G makes very good points.   I agree you should definitely hold off, as the risk of seeing someone with no reviews is too great.   Besides the LE issues, you don't know what kind of service you going to get from her unless there are reviews to prove that.   I she's any good, she will eventually get some reviews and you can see her then.  

I would be very careful unless you have solid intel.  You have a very limited hobby history so be careful.   You can always check with other sources if you can.  I have done it once, but I had solid intel from someone in the business and I was actually able to verify her through some back channels. I also have a very solid history and I hobby all over the U.S. I am sure there are other girls who would meet your criteria until you gain some more experience.  I would not do it.

This is not a guaranteed method, but you can Google her phone number.  If you see that she has advertised over a significant time period in a number of different locations,she is probably not LE.  This method does not give you any info whether the ad is a bait and switch.
