I would think that with all of the media coverage focusing on supposed "human trafficking" on backpage that that would be the site they would focus on, you never can tell but one thing is for sure, for every ad that ends up being a sting there are hundreds that are simply scams, you are much more likely to run into one of the many scams out there than you are an LE sting.
In the past my opinion would be that gents should be wary but also keep in mind that most of the busts are done on the girls, I have heard that this might change with LE supposedly wanting to punish the customer and help providers find a way out or something, again playing into the lie that there are no women in this on their own efforts and benefit. Most women are in this for the money so I doubt that unless the state starts handing out money to them for their bills that it will stop anything, regardless it will be something to watch for, if they change tactics as reported. They think that going after the customers will squash demand, of course they are not asked or pressed to explain how that could affect the desire for one to want to engage in sex, of course it won't.
As I said though, hobbyists should always be wary of the scams before LE as they are a more likely scenario, especially when you take a chance on a girl with no reviews.
Another girl on eros posted today will be through Ohio in the next week, Carmen, no reviews I have found to this point.
Eros should police the things better, I think a site that really did its best to not allow ads with fake pics and such would do very well and get the most views from hobbyists, definatly be preferred over ones that allow anyone to post who has the money.
