If you send an email to a service provider, the copy of the sent mail on the mobile site has "aka" and then a number (in red on the two examples I've seen) next to the service provider's rating.
Does anyone know what it means? In both cases I've seen when I've clicked on it the response was "no aliases found" so I'm not sure what the number is supposed to signify.

I'd like to know what this is too. Did anyone find out?

It usually means that the profiles might be being operated by the same user. I think it is a fairly simplistic system though, based on IP address. Lot's of girls end up with numerous aliases by using hotel wifi systems when they are touring. They can end up getting "linked" to any other girl who has used that same hotel! lol. When you click the number, if it doesn't come up with anything then I think that means that the linked profile has been deactivated?
I didn't think guys could see it to be honest - I thought it was only service providers who could see that... so unless you have set up your profile as a "male escort", it shouldn't appear... I don't think? Unless it is an anomaly with the mobile site? Certainly on the web site it doesn't say "aka" as far as I recall - it just has a red number in brackets.
I wouldn't let it worry you unduly.

Sorry for late reply to this, and thanks.
Yes I think it must be an anomaly on the mobile site as I'm set up as seeking services. You only see it alongside the service provider's profile name in emails that you've sent and received, not against the profile in the main displays.
