there have been numerous reports that foreign clubowners and agencies have been colluding to simply ship in an American dancer under a 'visitor's visa' and then allow her to work in the club illegally (a fact she might not even be aware of). In the best case this fact is meaningless ... nobody is the wiser. But in the worst case this fact puts the American dancer 'over a barrel' i.e. any attempt by the American dancer to raise issues with the foreign club could lead to a 'tipoff' to foreign gov't officials resulting in the American dancer being deported or worse.
