I see so many amazing pictures of providers on BP and when I conduct my DD checking phone number, reviews come up with nothing. Generally it is the providers who are too good to be true. Sometimes you see them advertising over a long time span without any TER reviews, which to me is a giant red flag. I often wonder if they are LE stings, if those individuals that are arrested might be court ordered not to post information regarding stings. Anyone have more insight into the LE activity in San Diego and how their operations run. Are they targeting Incall, outcall? Are they using numerous  BP ads  with different providers to draw individuals into one sting location?  

With local law enforcement cuts I don't imagine there are a lot of resources to dedicate to these type of operations, but I imagine if a federal task force was supplying the funding, local agencies would be provided funding to put officers on overtime to conduct stings.  

I just find it interesting that there are so many BP ads that appear to be LE stings yet you don't hear much about people being arrested. It is probably one of my biggest fears of hobbying which leads me to stay with well reviewed providers that appear to have some history.

I may be a little paranoid, but I am even suspicious of new TER ads, end always check the reviewers to determine their history, and always wonder if LE might lighten a guy's sentence if he used his alias to plant some info on the board.  

Just throwing out some info out there on some fictitious possibilities for entertainment purposes only. In case some others might have some fictitious thoughts or experiences regarding this subject

it is still best to avoid those ads.  Also, I would expect LE to favor incall ads based in hotels since it would be much easier for them to control the situation and takes less effort.  

Fake provider scams on the other hand probably don't have that much of a preference of incall vs. outcall.  However, with outcall it is easier for the fake provider to get away without the worry of the client trying to come back later and dish out a little street justice.  Fake providers who run scams would probably be reluctant to operate such scams out of apartments.  That is unless such apartment had a high level of security that would make it very hard for a person to get back in or into the parking area to try and figure out which car is their car.  You don't see such apartments that much in most areas of California, but you can find such apartments more in some other states, Virginia, DC, etc.  

I have developed my own criteria on BP ads that seems to work well.  Though I don't do it very often.  The first rule on my criteria is to disregard all ads with really hot, young girls, that don't have their faces obscured.....that is unless they are well reviewed.

Good insight......too bad one must skip past all the really hot looking hot pics on BP.....but it makes sense.

If they are showing their face.....it's probably not their face.

This site has been pretty good when it comes time guys testing the waters on BP. I have seen quite a few reviews. where
Guys took one for the team and were wrote a review of their experience. Had one of those situations myself. Seems like there is always someone willing to take a chance on an ad that looks to good to be true. That is why I am surprised we don't see more of these type of experiences put in the reviews.

It seems I see a lot of the fake ads providing in the area of clairmont Mesa and 15 and La Mesa, but definitely not limited to those locations. I imagine we are probably talking some cheap hotels, as likely Marriotts and Hiltons would not like their reputations ruined or their operations interrupted with police arresting people in their hotel.

Some of the reputable providers are even platinum members in marriot

Don't over think this. A little paranoia is a good thing. Continue to trust your gut and not your little head. That is the best way to stay out of trouble.

In general I would agree with that.  Nicer hotel chains would probably tend to consider it bad for business for stings to be going on there.  Motel 6 on the other has a bit of reputation for cooperating more with LE.  

However, don't take that as a hard fact.  There have been cases reported of LE operating out of higher end hotels.

So true !!! Great hobby with some simple rules. If followed, you are very likely to have some great experiences.

1. Don't be an asshole

2. Use TER reviews to make your choices

3. Use the network. The hobbyist and providers on this network will give you the answers to all your questions. Don't hesitate to reach out on the forum or by PM when you have questions

4. Do your due diligence. Goggle phone numbers, email addresses, and cross reference on TER and HX. Cross reference HX and TER......check those reviews.  

5. Communicate with providers and let them know what you want. Especially if it something off the beaten track.

6. If you have a bad experience, let the rest of us know with a review so the rest of us don't make the same mistake.  

7. If you followed al of the above.....enjoy yourself, because in this hobby you can make your dreams come true
for a moment in time, and maybe add a wonderful experience in what sometimes is a too often a hectic crazy life.

How many guys consider an HX listing with some "safes" as reliable if she doesn't have TER reviews?
Just curious as lately I've come across a few ladies advertising here but only have an HX "history."

Wise words to live by!
