In another thread xtcgrlatl mentioned "The cops don't do a super through search in my experience but they went through all my personal things and looked in all the drawers of the room, Under the mattress, that kind of thing."
I'm just curious as to how you got busted? You seem to be more careful than others (from what i've read) I'm just curious.
Did getting busted make you stop for a while? What did you get charged with and did you end up doing any time?
I was visiting family in another more conservative city and hanging out in my hotel room with my computer and figured "I'll make a little money while I'm here". So I posted an ad on what I now know as being an LE buffet, craigslist! Yay!
So I do a couple and then one shows up, looks a little strange, I dunno, anyways, he asks me "how much?" and I hesitate for a second because I hate to talk about money because I know it gets people busted. I tentatively answered.."uhh...$$$" and he was like "so does that include, like, handjob, blowjob, what?" and now red flags are going up like crazy but I'm on the spot and I'm like "uhh, thats full service"
So he says ok, hands me the money (another no no)
Sits down and starts to take his shoes off it looks like, Then his phone rings, he says a couple words like "hello? yeah, yeah" and then says he has to take the call outside. He opens the door and then all the sudden i've got like 3 cops in my face. One of them even comes in and takes my picture (I guess because most girls dress real whoreishly, I was dressed pretty casually myself.)
They searched the room and only by a stroke of luck managed to miss some E that I had in one of the bags they searched.
Then they took all my money, took my phone that I was using for work, threatened to take my computer but I talked them out of it telling them that it was necessary that I have it, and it is, for this business or sending out resumes I need a computer, and finally they wrote me a ticket that said I had to come to court on a certain day, then they left, I was shaken up but that didnt stop me from seeing another guy that I had previously seen in the same city, it still paid for my trip but my trip wasn't nearly as profitable as it was turning out to be.
Anyways, it didnt make me stop because It was a different city. While I was on probation I went extremely low profile (getting busted again would be instant 6 month sentence) I also got a regular job for some of those months, and only advertised on like adult personals ads which cops dont tend to browse. My friend stepped up her business and we got through it.
I'm glad it happened, the way it happened wasn't a big deal compared to what it could have been but after burning myself I am extra cautious.
