Fort Collins sting

44 posts in this topic

Wow saw something on the news about a sting in fort Collins and if I heard them right there was only 11 or so guys busted out of over 200 guys that replied to the post.... I feel sorry for the ladies that put up with that many time wasters that contact you and nothing ever happens.

Sorry for the guys that did not do their homework.  I am so glad we have TOB.  

I believe the stats are skewed because it only includes the people that are caught in trafficking.  They don't have full data.  Just like rape victims or other crimes that go unreported.  I am sure they are still high though and exploitation is just wrong.

Another sting in FoCo. Wonder what sites were used. Maybe Wyoming would be a better choice.

The way I read it, it looked like BP and Craigslist successors.

Back in February the FoCo and Larimer sheriffs had 400 plus respond to ads and 21 showed up. I guess the ratio of leads to buys is pretty lame. I never knew. 

Also points out the difficulties of partying in NoCo.

Either that or there were 380 smart guys that did not fall for it.  Could be anywhere in between.

True. I realize I need to party in the people’s republic of boulder and forget NoCo.

begs the question:  what are the signs that you are being trolled for a sting...

the national forum on another board had a great article that said the stats are staggering - almost all of those that get got had open dialogue about money and services in conversation leading up to or just prior to the meet...

so all of those people here that are upset that they can't see graphic reviews and a menu list rate card in a bio - or openly engage a provider specifically in what it may cost to get that extra mile on date that they have to know about - just be glad if you roll the dice and lose that the other thing you aren't getting besides your 'extra' is a citation and some splainin' to do - makes rolling the dice not so bad really...

date smart and you'll date safe - date safe and you'll date fun!

Really in between probably, but ultimately, time wasters. "You have any other pics", "Take a selfie with today's date on a piece of paper to prove you're real", guys talking to lady while chocking the chicken. And the smart ones will realize something is up when the lady on the other end of the call is willing to talk about all services and ridiculously low donation.

If a lady asks for specifics on what I want to do and for how much, yes, I'm suspicious. However, even not talking about things can still get you in trouble. There is a thread on the board re: an earlier FoCo sting, where the john did not discuss anything, just showed up and got ticketed before even having a chance to walk in the door. 

Reviews or not, details or not, really does not matter. LE knows what's going on, and if one gets targeted or walks into something, it's not because of what one said, it's that one let their guard down and was "dumb".

For guys, pretty easy: avoid the girl that just started advertising. If she's real, she'll be around down the road.

This from an acquaintance previously busted in Ft. Collins: (Not this recent one).

Ad offered companionship with no incriminating language. Friend arrived in the general location and called to get room number.

The gal gave room number then casually mentioned she was really broke and offered a BJ for $80.00. Knocked on the door.

The rest is now in the record books.

Never talk money and services.

Gah! If someone said anything like that over the phone, I'd say "Sorry, I must not have understood what we were talking about, thanks anyway!"

Repeat after me: "Payment is for time and companionship only."

While I may discuss a donation, it is for TIME!  Don’t mention services. 

I wonder if this is what got the 9 citations and the other 2 arrested. It’s hard for me to think they all did the exact same thing and only a couple were arrested out of the lot.

No. There is a link provided in the thread to a news article. Quote:

[arrested] either because of their status as registered sex offenders or refusal to provide identification, according to FCPS

But my real secret is (as stated in bold), ESTABLISHED PROVIDERS!  I don’t play games (send me a pic, etc.) with the newest flavor of the month.  Not only is it safer from an LE standpoint, it’s also an indication of skill/attitude.  So many of the young start-ups like sex, like $s, but can’t handle the realities of the business.

I completely agree with your statement. The same goes for clients too. I literally just had my Gmail account hacked because of my Google voice number. So now I had to change my number which is not something I like to do call google get that removed and actually change my physical phone number. An entire day on the phone, business establishments, and then purchasing a new computer because I utilize my email through that. Literally the device popped up as a Linux meaning Cali Linux. Sophisticated updated software. No more Google Voice for me I didn’t know that you can actually hack someone’s account with Google Voice luckily I always trash then permanently deleted my messages so now it’s extreme encryption with ProtonMail and entirely new phone with number for business purposes. Beware of Google Voice you guys seriously, I called Google directly and they provided me with that information.

Bit, I was trying to figure out what to post in this thread, but had trouble taking what I was thinking and putting it into words.  Then I log in this evening and discover you read my mind and posted what I was thinking.  Thanks      And....I hope some of the other things you may have read in my mind never make the light of day.  Sometimes it's not good to go into my head without a flashlight and a shotgun !!  :P

I straight up read that and completely spaced. Still, interesting the others were only cited. Does that normally happen?

Just a guess, but the arrested probably gave the LEOs a difficult time, and LEOs reciprocated.

Hi everyone,

I am in Foco. And haven't seen any stings.....I do know that Greeley is known for them. So I stay away from there. Guys do your research before you pull the trigger. Be safe

LE is going to continue to scan as it's still a hot topic. Best to do research and limit what's put into emails right now. It's not hard to figure out how they track and use the internet to seek people out. We have to stay a strong, trusted community. Stings are happening around the country most recently in NYC and Washington State.

Sorry to differ but massage parlors and hotels have been hit up many a time over the last couple of years. I get they are after the exploiters but the net is cast very wide.

That's why It’s best to get refrences, And screen very well. And work either from a residence or upscale location.

If the official police press release is going to say they placed ads in the "escort section of typical buy/sell/trade sites" it would be nice if they named one cause i do not believe such a thing exists these days!  Kinda casts a shadow on the veracity of the rest of the statement

"only cited" ..... and sent to John School which is a budget buster.  And money is what it is all about ..... keeping grant and other money flowing.
