The Screening Process

[BigBob18]

So Ive been in this hobby for quite some time visiting amp rmp and lmp both in ny and nj thats besides the few indies that are my atf.
Ive been seeing ads for agencies in nj with some nice reviews but I am nervous abt the screening process and giving my info. Has any1 went through with it? do they really call my place of work? Just curious if any1 has some info. to share.
Thanks in advance and happy mongering

Never give out your private information. You never know if it could bite you in your ass later. I would worry about possible extortion or or law enforcement getting it if they were busted. Just my 2 cents. When I see places that require that I just pass on them. Be safe.

Anyone like to give the other side of the argument, I'm curious too.

There is no other side of the argument. You are giving yourself away only so they can feel safe having your info in their hands. It works for them. You won’t even know who you are giving it to and what happens after you pass on your private info to them. Their priority is not to safeguard your info.

Would anyone who has been through a verification process like to share their thoughts about this, please?

How much info you share to be verified is a personal choice. As for me, I would never give out a personal work #.

Some in NYC ask for your ID to see and then give it back immediately (used to). Or ask for your handle on these sites as a reference. I prefer those. I never send screen shots of my ID via email or a chat message.

exactly-this is reasonable, I've done the same. I had one person wanted to facetime-which I can do through my non-trace Phone App-Just wanted to be sure I presented as I said I did-I complied-next thing I know I'm having the time of my life-just got to use your head . . .
