Posts: 130Myrtle Beach, SC Sting
It looks like Atlantic Beach is only about a mile from the sting location. While it would seem he would know about the monger climate that close, the Atlantic Beach police may be equivalent to a small campus-like force. In other words, not Atlantic City, NJ.

That means you're more at risk seeing a provider who has little or no ad history, and no reviews (from credible sources). For a Listcrawler ad, scrolling down and clicking on "More Pics" takes you to a page where you can see any previous ads on that site. If all you see is a day or two of ads, that's a red flag. If it's another ad site, try a web search for the phone number, or an image search for the pics. And, of course, check the local forums for info.
It's true that areas that are relatively "dry" will have more mongers willing to jump at the bait, but doing so is a high-risk proposition. It's also true that many mongers think that they're sting-savvy enough to stay out of trouble. What they need to realize is that the threshold for getting arrested in a sting is rather low. If you simply show up at the door, LEO can use that fact + the fact that you responded to an ad (clearly advertising sexual services) to support the arrest. Even if you were careful not to be explicit on the phone or in text messages, and even if you don't say anything incriminating in person, they're likely to cop (pun intended) a "tell it to the judge" attitude and slap the cuffs on. Some might think they could claim the arrest was unlawful, but that's a hard case to make and you'll have to hire a lawyer and go to court, no matter what. And, of course, everything will be excruciatingly public!
The only safe and sensible practice is to think with the big head and never take the bait. And also important to remember that, once you've bitten down on the hook, you're unlikely to be able to shake it out.

Trying to figure what to do different then these guys.
I guess never talk $ over the phone or text. If $ not in the ad then it's hard to know.
I guess always do a le check (grope) at the door before you pay. I'm usually to gentle to do it unless the girl initiates it first. That might be a costly mistake.
Myrtle Beach used to be wide open, escorts, AMPs, street walkers and a lot of happy golfers. It's now basically dry. I'm sure that's why these guys jumped at the chance.

One, or both, of those will have to change in order for there to be a material effect on the policing of consensual adult behavior.

Posts: 130100% Correct
While I love the hear the providers and MTs speak and write in their native tongue, Mr. Lee should only sign official and work-related documents in English. You're correct in that uncLE should focus more of their time on violent and property-related crimes in addition to getting rid of dangerous drugs like fentanyl.

This article shows us the priorities of LEO in NoVa and what issues keep them busy as they harass hard working providers and law abiding hobbyists.

Posts: 1844Some thoughts on avoiding the dreaded Anti-Trafficking sting!

Please note that I said safest, not best. Your particular mongering tastes will determine your personal risk-reward calculation.
I posted some other thoughts here:

Situational awareness is always a good thing, but it's not foolproof. If you're inside the room (or maybe inside your provider?) when a sting goes down, you're going to be detained, identified, and questioned (at a minimum).
