High tech escorts
From the Post Dispatch:
Investigators found two laptop computers, which they said was common for
escorts who work the Internet. But on a Web site on at least one of the computers, the police found something quite uncommon. It was a listing of their own cell phone numbers, undercover names, makes and models of their cars and even license plate numbers.

Prostitutes had paid careful attention to details, for example listing a cell phone number if it had been used to make an appointment that turned into an arrest.

Only a hooker with a secure log-in could get access to the Web page, police were told, and only someone with several hookers to vouch for her could get the log-in.
