This is scary stuff for those who choose to go outside a well moderated and managed site like usasg!

But that's the dilemma: if you give too few details, the review isn't worth much to the other members; give too much details and you risk peeking the interest of LE or "upstanding concerned citizen Joe Blow" and the place gets ratted out and shut down.

I have read some of that other board's stuff about this area, and believe me when I say there is enough there to get the notice of Miss Goody Two Shoes, and cause action that we do not want to take. My view is that this board is a much better bet, since there is at least an attempt to not be specific and / or graphic. That said, some of our brothers can definately use a good dose of STFU!
I'm Just Sayn.

I bet she has a ton more cash stashed overseas. What puzzles me is the NCIS involvement. What prompted that? The "husband" must be active duty Navy and somehow involved.

They have no authority over military members of other services (unless those personnel are assigned to Dept of Navy organizations) , non-Navy civilians with clearances, nor defense contractors. For contractors, the investigating authority lies with DSS, since that is the government authority that grants and revokes clearances for contractors. And even then, DSS does not investigate contractors suspected of patronizing massage parlors.

Understanding that there's no sign-in sheet in the spa, don't you suppose that records of calls from official USN phone numbers would be cause for NCIS interest?

Phone numbers and emails are the usual means of setting up appointments. Unless they asked to see some form of I'd upon entrance?
This why I use a pre paid phone and pay cash. Its harder to gather info that way. I try to park away from the entrance so that the cameras won't pick up my tags too.

Or do they just provide a "peep hole" view for the occupants to see what is outside the door. I "Heard" one time that they were used by management to check provider times to match the take, but that was third-hand info.
Would like to know for sure, so I can be more careful about my tags. BTW, on one of the MP review sites, I once found a picture of my vehicle outside the Spa. Talk about a headache!
Safe!
