Screening Suggestions

I do require screening before inviting a new friend over.

I try to offer enough options to fit most circumstances.

Usually any two of the following will work.

The caveat being that both options can't be links that anyone could find and send claiming to be you.

Particularly if you're texting me from a disposable phone or text app.

-----

A LinkedIn profile (one that has a photo) along with a selfie.

Professional email?

I have a second email account with no connection to the hobby for a discrete and brief exchange.

I could discretely call and ask for you at your desk.

I prefer to call through the auto attendant as opposed to your direct line.

Even if you're not there, I could and leave a message for you to retrieve.

A photo of you on an organization company website someplace.

(along with a right now selfie)

An article written by you or about you that includes a photo.

Borard memberships on P411, RS2K and Private Delights.

References from established companions who you've met before.

(references alone don't suffice)

Personal social media may be one option.

(must be active, and the email tied to it should be one you commonly use)

A drivers license and a right now selfie.

(considered as one item, not as two)

Something similar that I haven't thought of that serves the same purpose.

The key word is similar.

I've seen court docs online work,

Property records.

A few other things as well.

What will absolutely NOT be accepted:

FaceTime or Duo Calls

Meeting you in a public place.

Just trusting that you're a nice guy.

Sending me a deposit in lieu of screening.
