According to a couple of detailed news articles describing stings in North Dakota, the process goes like this:
1) Police place prostitution ads. The ads don’t suggest that the prostitutes are under age.
2) When men respond to the ads, the police tell them that the prostitutes are under age.
3) The description of one sting said that “hundreds” of men responded to the ads, but the vast majority of them ended the conversation when police told them the prostitutes were under age. Only eleven men continued and attempted to hire an underage prostitute. The other sting described had similar results.

It was obvious from the descriptions that all of the men who responded to the ads thought the ads were for legal adults. Only a tiny percentage of the responders were interested in underage prostitutes. But the North Dakota Attorney General cited the responses as proof that there’s a large market for underage prostitutes in North Dakota.

I checked the sex offender lists for several locations in North Dakota. In almost every instance, the offenders knew their victims; either family or friends of family. I didn’t find any instances of an offender finding a victim through advertising, either on the web or through some other media. Using publicly available records, I wasn’t able to find evidence of organized trafficking of legal minors that used web or print advertising to find customers in North Dakota.

A woman who worked as a victim specialist for the FBI resident agency in Minot said that she had a sudden increase in trafficking victims, but none of them were underage. The Minot resident agency covers much of the Bakken oil fields, which is supposedly where North Dakota is experiencing an increase in underage trafficking.
