BLM69 is 100% correct. In the DPS press release re: the El Paso sting operation, all arrested were responding to ads at websites that were placed by law enforcement. A close reading between the lines indicates that adult prostitutes were identified, and their donated or surrendered online persona used to place ads that the arrested men responded to.

"The goal was to target individuals trying to exploit and victimize adult prostitutes, as well as to identify and apprehend individuals with suspected involvement in human trafficking by using various websites to solicit sexual acts from adults."
"As a result of the operation, fourteen suspects are now facing felony charges for solicitation of prostitution. Special Agents were also able to identify and open investigations into additional suspects."
