Everyone has different thoughts.
However, I did run across a lady who worked through that org. She was in a UTR standpoint and mentioned she had been robbed a few times and even beaten. At what point is screening necessary? Just because you have a screen name somewhere doesn't mean anything. It's an alias to hide behind. On the other hand, if you feel like you don't want your info floating anywhere, don't sign up for a credit card, don't purchase anything online, do not finance a car and certainly under any circumstance don't buy into those "free vacations" ha ha.
Some have a lot to lose, others protect themselves and their assets, others know what it takes to get a real date. Respectively, the best dates I've had were with those that required a verification system. Just my observation and personal experience.
May yours be safe and fulfilling.
[QUOTE=Buki1; 1822026]No, it's really not bad news. Just visit a SP who is reputable, with good reviews here or elsewhere, and things will likely be just fine.
There is always risk. Screening is primarily for their safety, not mine, and I will never go through the screening many agencies require. That is absolutely foolish.[/QUOTE]
