Since the last few years have witnessed a steady and significant migration of SW's from the street to the net, I'd like to know the best ways to set up a date with an escort and show up at her hotel confident that she's not a cop running a sting operation.

Specifically, while some escort reviews are clearly made up, is there a way to trust some of them as proving she is truly a bona fide escort? If an escort has no reviews, as many of them do, should I be suspicious of her being a cop? I have seen a handful of escorts and usually place an envelope with money somewhere indiscreet (sometimes in the bathroom) - then tell her I saw an envelope that she must have misplaced - so that I'm never 'giving' the money to her. Is this sufficient defense if it is a sting?

I apologize if this advice is listed somewhere on our site, but I've been contributing here for maybe ten years and didn't see it addressed. And I've been cruising less and less because I don't like wasting four or more hours (gas, time, and money) driving up and down the usual strolls and going home empty handed, so to speak.

I'd appreciate your thoughts.

Sometimes you just have to say What The F**k

screwed my brains out. what's your excuse?

Don't see anyone who hasn't been around for several months. At least 4 but I prefer 6 in almost all situations since I want someone who has experience and a track record of treating being an Escort as a business/Profession who knows what she is doing.

If she doesn't have any reviews, yeah, could be a cop but probably just a new handle to escape poor reviews and why would you waste your time and money on someone with no track record? Money isn't a problem for me in this little fun "game" of ours, but wasting my time and having a poor service IS.

You aren't missing out on anything by waiting and if she leaves the area or quits, so what, plenty of others around.

Bascially, if you follow the above, very little chance, and the reason for my subject line.

LE isn't going to bother spending oodles of time creating fake reviews and waiting months to bust 1 guy (maybe more of course on the same day) when they can nab the "low hanging fruit" by just posting a fake pic on CL a phone # and wait for the avalanche of calls especially if the price is relatively cheap.

Why should they make things more difficult than necessary?

LE also isn't going to do a bust at your personal residence and very unlikely at your Hotel. They like to be in complete control of the situation, need other cops nearby, video, and all that other crap. Why risk sending a lone female cop into a Gents home? Just not necessary. Probably around 90 percent of the girls I've seen this year are for Outcall. Not a problem and much more convenient but not "do-able" for some others.

Although I could go on forever, as this has been mentioned many times before (no biggee fresh perspectives every few months or so are helpful) a slight reduction in risk if doing an Incall at a Hookers personal home or apartment.

Just follow the first 2 paragraphs and no one should have any problems. No guarantees, as always.

1. Read the providers posting and her reviews. If she has been posting for awhile and has reviews, pretty safe to presume she is not LE.

2. Upon making contact, never discuss services over the phone. Just have a casual conversation and make an appointment.

3. Upon showing up to the appointment, do a casual check of the bathroom, closet, and if the room has a connecting door, check to see if the handle is locked or not. Notice if the provider stands behind you and locks the door to the room with the bolt and chain. If she doesn't, ask her if you can, for your mutual protection. If she doesn't, politely leave. It is highly unlikely that LE will breakdown a bolted and chained front or locked connecting room door and destroy the premises for only one bust.

4. At this point, if you feel comfortable with her and your sixth sense gives you the all clear, you can place the donation on the dresser, night stand, or other visible location.

*****But under any circumstances, do not discuss services. If you don't feel comfortable, tell her that you don't (and just that only) and politely leave. Remember to trust your sixth sense. There are plenty of other legitimate providers out there to choose from if this one is not worth your trust.*****

4. Have fun and stay safe.

No. But it's widely believed by both hookers and tricks these days.

I like to hand the money directly to her. I find it erotic.

If she's a cop, you were already busted when you showed up "in furtherance" of the crime. You've already committed an overt act by arranging the date then showing up.

You could send her the money by carrier pigeon and it wouldn't matter a bit.

There has been much back and forth about this topic in recent times. Check the referenced threads for details. A large part of your anxiety and concern should be allayed by the fact that the vast majority of sting operations, focusing on internet P4P, involve LE targeting providers and not their clients. If the intent of the specific LE agency involved is not on street action or the sexual exploitation of minors, then the chances of being the target of a sting in which anonymous internet clients are lured to a motel or residence for paid sex with an adult provider are vanishingly small.

One of the primary reasons that this is so is that if male clients were to be randomly targeted those kinds of operations would be netting all manner of public officials (including other cops), community leaders, professionals, etc....and that just wouldn't fly at all.

There are other reasons to be extremely careful in meeting anyone for
P4P activities that you do not know well, but if you're not trying to find pussy on the streets or have sex with minors, then you're very likely to never see an LE operation that is set up to target folks like you and I.
