This thread breaks my heart. If you have any idea what goes on during a robbery, you'd realise you shouldn't have put such sensitive information in a public forum. I can understand why this has happened because there isn't a private forum for discussing such miscellaneous things. PMs aren't ideal as this is information that is worth sharing to as many of the right people as possible, 24/7 i.e. via a private forum.
I for one WON'T be using any of these tips which were great ideas until they were posted where every Tom, Dick and Harry could see them.

I agree completely with virtually all of this, and it's always interesting to see just how blind people can be when it comes to the internet. But we at SAAFE are not babysitters, and I personally hold the view that sometimes people have to be let alone to do stupid things or they'll never realise just how unbelievably stupid those things are.
Even on a private forum nobody has any way of assuring themselves that somebody else is going to be OK; we don't ask for verification of any kind here and even if the site was not aimed at newbies (who are less likely to have checkable form, from our point of view) it would be not only silly but downright dangerous to assume that because somebody is a sex worker, they're automatically going to be nice. The opposite of this has been proved to be true time and time again.
That said, I think everybody ought to be done with the How To Rob a Prostitute instruction leaflet now. If anybody has further suggestions, I strongly suggest they be kept to PMs, and even then only to people you're comfortable with.
