This is a recent discussion we had in one of our private ZV groups - there's lots of useful info here that provide practical UPDATES to the @SouthFlorida's guidelines from the old BF site! (The original "security tips" had (some) "things to consider" when I was first starting out! )
-- We think these are worth sharing with the general ZV population! You're welcome to comment!
Q: Does anyone have advice on how to go about first time meetups with potential owners/partners? My wife and I would love to find a friend with benefits on the site, but due to the nature of the material we can be a bit skittish.
My initial thoughts were to request that any human participants have STD testing done (because who likes condoms?) and maybe meet up at a public place and "date" a bit first.
Good point - also in the BF article! (Starbucks or McDonald's work for me - can't get much more vanilla than those - also helps remind you to keep it safe on first meet! )
A: Ask if they have a social media account if you get to know them. Make a protonmail account. Never allow photos of the meetings. In the past they have used facial recognition in the EU to bust people. I read years ago so its been around for a long time.
There was a man with 10 acres who set up a website to advertise paid zoo retreats! - The ATF/FBI showed up took his house land away and arrested a visiting cpl, and put down all the animals. So do not believe they have better things to do. The court system always needs money so trust, for me, is a hard thing to earn. Remember face masks or leave cell phones in a vehicle! Heck, especially today, with tracking location enabled in your phone or camera, your metadata tracks everybody.
