I'm new to the hobby so please excuse my naivete in advance.  

I've been following TER and got curious about KAngels based out of Bellevue. I read the reviews and decided to contact them. I sent them a picture of my ID with all key information blacked out and a selfie, standard prescreening I guess. Then my seventh sense of paranoia picked up: there seems to be availability every day with a provider. I decided to investigate a bit further and came across this news article linked with my post  

When I reread all the reviews on the KAngels provider (goes by the name of Hara here at TER) I noticed all the reviews were in the last one month or so and most of them have only reviewed other KAngels from different cities. And almost all of the reviews are very similar looking in language (basic adjectives used to describe the experience).  

So my question is this: is KAngels legit cooperative or a LEA sting operation? Any suggestions on protecting myself is appreciated.

I can tell you that I have seen Aria in NYC.  So since she is now working fir Kangels I got to believe they are legitite.
