thats a good question. I to think its stupid to give out someones personal info like your birthdate/full name/and especially your social security number. I mean most of the houseboys probably dont realize that identity theifs use these gay sites also and this site seems to have alot of them. Its the perfect place to use young guys by promising them a job offer and then asking for information to obtain a susposed "background check". I think its a scam. If someone wants your information I think THEY should also provide you with the same information. Houseboys also there are ways to verify employers that dont cost anything. Once you get their names and info google their location to match it with them. Its nice if you could find a hacker to have as a friend or even someone from the geek squad lol so that they can show you how to track a persons IP address. I have done IP address verification before and have noticed alot of false profiles. For instance so far since I joined the site there has been 8 profiles that I have tried to verify that have the same IP address as another profile. THIS is a HUGE RED FLAG and usually means the person has multiple profiles set up!! I saw a houseboy post before when I first join about this same topic. Just a note to all houseboys..THE SCUM OF THE WORLD IS USUALLY RICH PEOPLE!! PEOPLE WHO HAVE MADE SO MUCH MONEY THAT IT HAS CAUSED THEM TO BE CONTROLLING AND TO LOOK DOWN ON OTHERS WHO ARE LESS FORTUNATE. It has always been that way and always will be. One of my friends said to me when I created my profile "an older man who is in a relationship with a younger guy is in it for two reasons only, 1. For sexual pleasure, or 2. To control them" I told them that some younger guys like myself actually like older men because of our maturity level but Im starting to see what he meant when he said what he did. Alot of employers profiles DEMAND sex and DEMAND you to be a "slave" . One profile that contacted me actually said that "if you come here you will have sex with ME and ONLY ME? I mean the last time I checked my body belonged to me and I can do with it whatever I choose. Lol..but anyhow I hope that the houseboys who read some of the forums that other houseboys have made use their advice. Im sure that by actually having a brain and speaking out that this will upset alot of employers. But If I dont get hired because of my forum posts then atleast I know I have helped a houseboy or two from traveling to someone who they dont know and possibly being raped/stranded/ or worse even murdered!!
