I have been on this site for a few years. I have traveled to meet women that I met on the site. Many of the women, despite numerous emails, knew nothing about me when I met them. They were told by the agency that a man was coming to meet them and that was the first that they had heard of me.
They admitted that they had never written an email or chatted.
While in the agency office in one city, I was able to view the monitor of one of the girls working on a computer in the office, she was chatting with several men at once, on a girls profile that was definitely not the girl at the desk.
The women I met were very nice and some are still friends, but to find them through the mire of fraud on the website is difficult.
In my estimation, if you are chatting with a pretty girl without video there is less than a 25% chance that you are chatting with the lady. Asianbeauties (sister site) is just as bad by the way.
There is one woman I found who has a cam. You can tell that she is chatting on other computers at the same time. I left, and started to Camshare with a different woman, when the video came up I was looking at the same girl from the other computer, so I searched women online with a cam and about the same age and guess what, I found her chatting on a third persons profile. One of the profiles was hers the others didn't quite look like her.
I don't know if the fraud is sanctioned by the parent company, or more likely just perpetrated by the local agencies, but it has gotten worse over the past year.
I was on the phone with one of my friends I had met in South America, she was grocery shopping. I checked online and told her that she was online. We thought it was funny, so I chatted with the lady at the agency, then I told her I was on the phone with the lady and she is at the store... disconnected. Lol
It wasn't as bad when I joined as it is now. But if I knew it was going to get this bad I would not have joined.
My advice if you are on this site.
Only chat with ladies that have video so you can see who it is.
If you ask to exchange personal information and they want to wait until they know you better through the website. BAIL
If you explain your concerns about fraud, a real person would understand, a photo with something current like a magazine, that you know had to be taken very recently is good evidence that she is real. If she is offended because you don't trust her. BAIL
Be suspicious of anyone you can't send flowers to.
And if you make a phone call have a friend that speaks the language listening with you, the interpreters will go very slowly. The calls become very expensive.
Good luck.
