EPM has a crazy screening process
[QUOTE=Kma2016;6460308]Visiting next week and was wanting to try and schedule something with epm. Could someone let me know if there are any rules or ways of reaching out that can increase my odds of getting a response? Trying to schedule something and not getting anything back. PM is ok if needed.[/QUOTE]If you are only visiting, I would say don't even bother with EPM. They are pretty bad at responding if you are new with them and they have a crazy screening process. Be prepared to give them all your private info. There is no way to remain anonymous unless you have some fake documents.
Philly has other great AMPs that are completely walk-in friendly. But it's probably wise to avoid high volume times.
Philly is a dangerous place. They need ways to protect themselves
[QUOTE=SamKatz;6465456]EPMs screening is just as bad as the other 2 (Classy and LoveKPhilly) I won't say exactly due to being told not to but those that know EPM is run by somebody familiar if that makes any sense. Even if you have a great rep they will give you the cold shoulder if you don't pass the "screening" aka FBI background check. You are DEFINITELY not the only one who feels this is way over the top for "both of our safety" Even though the only "safety" matter is a vaccinated card with your name on it which is healthy safety not LE safety. But ofcourse some mongers don't care about sending over their whole life to enter an AMP. I only felt a little comfortable going through the process while I was visiting the west coast but here? I still feel bad about it now but I made a conscious decision so I got to live with it. Theres also zero relief since I know it's a lie when they say "All personal information will be discarded after the first visit" That may work on some mongers but not Sam.[/QUOTE]Different places implement different ways to protect themselves.
Places like EPM have a strict screening process to protect themselves.
Places like Saigon have a strategy where all your belongings are in a locker that they provide. So when you with their girl, you have nothing except a towel and sandals. That way, if you come in with a gun or something, you are away from it.
Places like VIP have a table shower session where you are away from your belongings for several minutes. I think they might go through your stuff if they don't trust you. They also have emergency buttons in case they need help. I have never seen it being used, but the buttons are normally used in Korean restaurants to get the waitress's attention. My guess is that VIP has it to send messages to the mamasan or other people behind the scenes.
I hear in Korea, they have a big problem with hidden cameras in hotels and other places. I would guess that some of the Korean AMP{s might also use hidden cameras in the AMP rooms. I have no evidence of this. It is only my suspicion.
I heart massage makes use of cameras. I'm not sure if they have hidden cameras, but they have several high definition cameras at other places. And as you walk in, there is a big screen showing several security cameras. In the room, there was a very suspicious stuffed animal hanging from the ceiling that looked like it could be a hidden camera.
I went to one AMP / LMP (Asian / Latina) in a different state where there was an armed big black security guard at the front as a deterrent. I'm sure other places might have someone armed behind the scenes.
Personally for me. I have always felt safe at philly AMPs. I don't cause issues and I get in and get out with what I pay for. I'm in it for good service and they are in it for repeat business. It's win win.
Really, let's break this down.

FACT #1 Most spa owners are NOT stupid. NOTE: I said most and not all. There are way to protect yourself and there are ways to hand over evidence gift wrapped on a silver platter to the authorities. Video taping the action in the room would be at the level of epic stupidly.
Remember as long as you don't confess to Uncle LEO there is no real evidence against you. I have only ever officially gotten a light rub down in an spa. Everything I have ever written on this board is total BS and complete fiction. Short of a time machine, there is zero evidence to prove me wrong. My position in America will be, Let the prosecutor present their evidence to the court to prove their case. Oh, the prosecutor has irrefutable video evidence? What kind of idiot would video tape that? There is zero good that could ever come out of doing something that stupid.
FACT #2 They also aren't interested making a small problem and turning it into a major business ending problem. Having a customer refuse to pay and get a free one is the cost of doing this kind of business. I am sure happens once in a while.
Then let's weigh the positive vs the negative of having an armed guard at the spa, confronting customers with a gun and the possibility of an accident happening? Even in the worst case of getting robbed at a spa, at gun point and losing your 200 and not getting any. You already decided that you were not going to have that 200 tomorrow when you woke up. One way or the other it was gone. The lady in the spa was still going to do what she was going to do with that guy. He won't be able to come back to that spa again.
Now weigh it against, worst case of the security guard gets into a gun fight with the guy and kills them but also shoots someone else. I'll assume a spa is not getting the best trained armed security guards on top of it. So after a shooting, now there is a giant mess on everyone's hands. Most likely the spa gets shut down, you have bodies with bullet holes in them. It is a giant mess. LEO is forced to find all video evidence in the area, there are cameras on the streets everywhere today. It is a juicy story on the local news for a few days. Yes you can justifiably blame the guy who robbed the spa. When your wife finds out and wants a divorce. You kids grow up hating you. You lose your job. You might have an injury that lasts a lifetime. The spa owner lost their business. Good news is you still have your 200 but the real cost could be much much higher.
Like I said there could be dumb spa owners. If I find out they are making really dumb decisions, I will stay away from those spa.
The safe thing about an well established place like EPM is they don't have to take new customers off of the street. I also don't believe Uncle LEO is concerned with established traveling girls who are wearing Rolex's and traveling 1st class are being forced to do something against their wills. For the opposite reason I never engage with drug addicted street level women, who I know are trapped into this to feed their soul & life destroying addictions. No harsh judgement if you do see them, it is just my choice. Nor do I think LEO is looking to rent rooms out at the Ritz to entrap super rich guys who are willing to pay $1000/ hr, you know the guys the mayor golfs with on the weekends and who write fat checks to get them elected.
