Granted that Agencies are more visible and easy to bust, but doesn't mean indies are 100% safe. Indies can save your information too. It's just the inherent risk involved in hobbying. If you want to be 100% safe, go to Germany or Amsterdam.

The way they do business, sooner or later it would happen. I haven't used their service for, like, 3+ years.

...but common sense suggests that LE would have to gain very little by trying to prosecute the clients. The cost certainly outweighs the benefits. Just because agency has your number doesn't mean that you are a client. Unless you are caught in the act, it is not likely that there would be any prosecution.

That being said, it's best not to have your personal information leak in the first place. I've been seeing girls from 2 agencies since 2007, and the agency owners only know my hobby name and phone number.

Thoughts?

I agree with the first half of your statement, but unless your phone number is a "throw away" phone, it would take minimal effort for LE to figure out your identity through phone number information.

Everything depends on what kind of records the agency keeps. If they have detailed records of your "dates" over the past 3 years, that is enough proof to show you're a client. But, that is all circumstantial. Just because they have a notebook saying "GuyOfCharm @ 2pm in Tysons Corner" doesn't mean you're guilty of anything.

That is what I tell myself to sleep at night, and I certainly limit the information that I give to agencies.  But, I have read about some of the high profile madams from west coast and new york that have had their clientele outed publicly.

Unless you're a public figure, nobody is going to give two damns about any name on some list that may or may not be made public, whether you're a vice president at a financial firm, a lawyer, a doctor, or an entry level IT analyst.

I don't know how you do that. I've tried several times to get approved by desirable companions with no luck. Have no idea why, all of my info was correct.

And there is the sting in Arizona where client lists were seized and eventually posted on the internet by a local news station.

based on the articles I have seen, I think this is more about the money laundering and the IRS than anything else.

I hope I'm not wrong ;-)

Everyone knows agencies destroy the personal information they collect during the screening process.  That's what they all say so it must be true, right?
As said in an earlier post on a related topic: The nail that sticks out gets hammered down.  Engaging in unlawful activity is obviously risky.  But the bigger and bolder your operation gets, the riskier it is.  Operating a local cathouse is risky.  Operating a nationwide prostitution ring is incredibly risky.  Operating a worldwide prostitution ring is beyond incredibly risky.
I suspect that the real focus of this operation is the cash.  The government does not like it when people try to hide large sums of money.  It's almost irrelevant how they generated the money they made.  What matters is that they tried to hide it.  The money laundering counts are where the real jail time is.  But if the reference to a "Children's Task Force" means there were some underage women involved, there is some major time there as well.  
Note that there were arrests in March of 2009.  If memory serves, there have been many MC ads posted since then.  So they were operating while under federal investigation.
