Well. Good Job LE. Shutting down MPs and busting people working hard for a living that never hurt or took advantage of people and finally, it only took about 10 YEARS to shut the real criminals down. Are we really suppose to believe they just found out? Anyways, nice to see tax dollars go to proper use.

Super2020 those were NOT MPs. They where straight UP scams.
Places that take your money up front, then put you in a room, ask for more money for "service" then take that money, leave the room, come back and tell you that you wont get what you just paid for and then put you out. Pure rip off.

Example:

Ok so we do not like LE in our hobby. BUT this is a case of LE doing exactly what they should do, since none of the places busted were actually providing services. They were just ripping people off. I applaud them for taking action on those people that have scammed hobbiests out of hard earned money.

These are NOT hard working ladies providing service to make a living. These are criminals. YES they have hurt and taken advantage of people. Have you even been to one of these places? You seem outraged that people who rip off others have been caught.

AMEN TO THAT ROCK I would of called the police as soon as they put me out the door, down right stealing which may be a feloney especialy being using a gun to make you leave. if you dont even pay for food in some restaurants in vegas I have know them to call the police. try going to a casino and steal a few hundred dollars from them and see how far you get.

This is good to see when I first moved to Vegas a couple years ago had a good run on the tables asked a taxicab driver to take me to get a massage and he took me to one of these places and they don't even give you a massage just upsell upsell I left after the door fee but lets shut these crooks down for good and not let them reopen.

ROCK, I know those were not actual MPs. Read my post again, looks like you misunderstood the context. I'm congratulating LE for finally doing what they should have did many many years ago.

How did you figure that I was outraged by these people being caught when my post says:
finally, it only took about 10 YEARS to shut the real criminals down. and Anyways, nice to see tax dollars go to proper use.

Even though I never went to one of those places this is how I feel about it


You were correct about me being outraged, just not what about. My outrage comes from the waste of tax dollars.

Let's see, do you bust a business where legitimate beneficial services are being provided and some individuals may happen to pay for sex on some random occasions but everyone is happy and no one is harmed? Or, do you bust a business that lures people in believing that they will be paying for sex every time, then get extorted and possibly beaten and/or robbed and thrown out the back door? The answer is look how many MPs and their employees have been busted that had no real negative impact before they finally got to places like Sensations. Thats my outrage and I'm sure that it is shared by 99 out of every 100 people here (at least I hope so).

As far as AMPs go, I remember how someone else once put it: "Is it really a crime to pay someone for something that they can legally give for free?"

(and BTW, before someone goes on another attack on ROCK for his response like I have seen so many times in the forum, there is no reason for it. WE ALL misunderstand things from time to time, and he contributes a lot and always answers people's questions that I have seen. So much so that I even thought he was a site administrator here. Making comments about the amount of time someone has to participate in something is childish and really not necessary when someone is willing to give their time. If I didnt take it the wrong way I dont see why anyone else should)

Funny I was just warning hongo just a few days ago about places like Sensations,' http://www.eroticmp.com/forum/t3451-henderson-close-luxor-.htm - what timing.

Being an ex-cab driver out here, I can contest as too how many people would get ripped off and even beaten at these places.

A lot of cabbies loved to take guys there because of the large kick-back (of $100-$150 when I was working) these places would pay out. I and a few other drivers would not take anyone there because it was a scam. I was more of a long-term business man. I would make sure to take my guys to a good AMP that would leave them "happy", because I would like for them to call me back later on that night, next day or when ever they came back to Vegas. I enjoyed the repeat business I got from these guys and the big tips they would give me for not steering them in the wrong direction.

AMP's in Vegas (not sure about the Henderson area) do give cabbies a kick-back for every guy they drop off, but not like the places like Sensations, Club Exclusive or R&R, usually between $30-$50.

I do have to agree with Super2020 as to why it took so long for these places to get busted. And why only those 3. There are at least 6 more that I can think of that do the same thing. I am sure it was a strategic bust based on the locations of these places, because close to Sensations there are at least 2 more within walking distance.

I'm guessing that the place across the street from Rhino in the office park is one of those kind of places too

Yup! That's the R&R, I believe it used to be called the Red Room when it was over on Harmon over by the Hard Rock hotel. But changed its name when it moved across from the Rhino.

My golden rule of thumb was that if it didn't have an Asian name or look like an Asian spot, then turn away, more likely it was a clip joint.

180 and want more money when you get to a private room and get nothing? Sounds EXACTLY like a strip club to me but at least you get lap dances

You are RIGHT, I completely missed the sarcasm in the post. But in my defense it is hard to read intent in the typed word. I appologize.

I will offer a suggestion that I use, to prevent something I post from being misunderstood from time to time, so please do not take offense. Feel free to ignore it, if you like.

If I post something that could be misunderstood to mean the opposite of what I intend, I usually end the post with /sarcasm.

I now completely and correctly understand the intent ofyour post, thank you for clearing it up.

They used to have places like that in the late 80's in the commercial center where the girls would try to get guys to buy expensive non alcoholic champange with the same idea. Glad they shut em down.

None taken.
