[QUOTE=Engbest;3930217]Interesting conversation going on in other forum.

[URL]https://www.eccie.net/showthread.php?t=2413149[/URL]

I was told vadc and he got some inside info. Careful out there.[/QUOTE]If you read through the whole thing you can see VADC taking flak from more established members and a lot of bickering back and forth about who is more trustworthy.

My big problem is this: If you really have "inside info" about a pending LE operation, why not disclose every detail you can that doesn't burn your source? For example, why not name the "well known site in va" that's going to be used? And why limit important safety information only to "members I can trust" via PM?

It's also unclear, at least to me, what he means by the "st" (State Troopers?) and "na" abbreviations. Perhaps he thinks the meaning should be obvious, but the lack of clarity doesn't help make his case.

It looks like VADC has 15 posts on that other site. I'm not a member so I can't read any of them. Maybe someone who is an established member of both boards can check them out and give their opinion as to whether this guy has any board cred.

In the meantime, good hobby-sense and thinking with the big head are always good ways to keep safe. With less access to reliable reviews and Intel, it's even more important to do good research and resist the urge to impulse shop. Any brand new provider ad (s) on any website should be viewed with suspicion. Stick with the tried and true and use this forum to tap into the collective wisdom of the community.

It appears that you been around for while. I am sure you know who established members (providers who been around forever and mod) are. I am pretty sure you know which well known site is. If not, you should be ok since you have no chance to get entrapment. Just surprised that SM can't see what happened. Two things for me, I will stick to once I know and hope that site owners don't surrender member info.

But, even if not, you seem to be claiming the same level of knowledge.

So, if I understand correctly, here's what you / VADC are claiming:

1. A major LE operation will happen in Virginia in the near future.

2. It will be statewide.

3. It will involve a well-known hobby site.

4. Users of that site will be, or perhaps already are, at risk.

5. You and VADC, through access to inside information, know the name of the site.

So my question is, why not name the site? That would be the simplest and most effective way to warn the hobby community, wouldn't It? If there's some reason why you can't name the site, or won't, please explain.

OK - *if* (and by no means this is a given) there is an operation of some kind coming, then how would this work?

I seriously doubt people are going to get identified from postings and targeted individually. More likely, this would involve some kind of boots on the ground action, with the hobby board providing supporting information.

"Users of the site may already be at risk" - ummh, I'm not sure how that would work. Unless you were posting illegal material, or offering very detailed specific information about criminal activity, I don't see how you could be targeted.

As always, be safe. I am curious as to what this is about, but I am not sure that this is something to be extremely worried about. Feel free to PM me with more details if you have it.

Ok, I am going to answer few things (may not be the answer your looking for).

I have no idea who that poster is. I would love to pm him and get some answers too. If you think I am the poster, keep believing that because no matter how much I say "no" you made up your mind.

From others (this is from some ladies and men who contacted poster), certain people got fake IDs in that website as provider and hobbyists and things are set. This is from ladies and men contacting the poster and like anything else, it is 3rd hand info.

Do whatever you want with info. I know what I would do.

Am I the only one who has had trouble logging in to this site the last few days?

I'm assuming whatever problem I was having is unrelated to the eccie discussion. (I guess all the LE talk makes me a little paranoid. But I completely trust this site and its Admin or I would not be logging in, and certainly not posting.).

Does anybody who is willing to share have info about the alleged statewide LE operation yet? If not, why be so cryptic and Bogart the information, folks?

Thanks.

Thanks.[/QUOTE]I did yesterday.

Even tried without VPN on to see if that was issue. No Luck. Seems fine today.

I got an email today from a certain Latina Agency who has rebranded themselves and now advertising in NOVA. I have used this agency in the past and found the providers to be a good value, however perusing the new website has raised some flags. Could this be a trap from previous postings on here or just another agency trying to rebrand? Anyone else get an email from this "nice" tysons latina agency?

Thanks.[/QUOTE]I haven't had any trouble logging on to this site in recent days. In fact, I posted a report on Monday over in the Columbia / Jessup forum concerning a weekend visit to a certain AMP in Maryland.

I haven't heard anything about the alleged LE operation other than what's been written on this site. It's always good to be careful regardless of whether there's any truth to those rumors.

Is that a cause for concern?

I was unable to reach the site for 2 days as well.

These darknet markets are gone after a similar situation just a year ago. Site alphabay went offline for a few days, surfaced back up with LEO behind the wheel. While the site was down nobody knew that the guy running it was tossed in a Thailand jail where he later offed himself. Then after shutting down AB, and all the fiends hurried off to Hansa. Surprise! The dutch police had that site wrapped up and coordinated with other mostly US agencies on the timing of shutting these sites down to get as many user actions, logins, and identities, logged as possible.

I'm of the OPINION that there are sites that, maybe even this site, are likely compromised. The feds have to know that shutting down BP would not keep mongers from mongering for long, and could very well have nicked a site like this or e-monkey, eros etc or even the BP-replacments like adultsearch. Possibly even [URL]Seekingarrangement.com[/URL], any site where you could expect people to discuss money for sex.

All the horn ball mongers drive all the real sex traffickers to all of these sites, the feds just need to pick a popular one, twist some diplomatic arms when data isnt domestic, and then hand over juicy stats and harrowing human interest stories which makes for great optics when the fakenewsnetworks come tooting their moral horns.

I'm willing to assume further that the feds are not interested in our xrated fantasies as much as they are really trying to get real victims help and real assholes put in prison. The problem is all the other BS that comes along with broader law enforcement actions.

A-X must be avenue-x?

While I had no trouble accessing this site over the holiday weekend, I had trouble a little while ago. However, I tried again later and here I am. Perhaps my earlier attempt to log on coincided with the daily backup or some other activity.

To be honest, I'm not sure what to think of it but my instinct tells me they're safe, mainly due to some of the same line up from their previous name. My guess is that they were waiting for the dust to settle before starting back up again.

I believe it is rebranding because I had been in touch with their scheduler once their old site went down and they were still operating just thru email and she had sent me their new website before that announcement email came out so I think it is safe, however I have not tried myself yet.
