I was scammed by a guy I met through CMB, later found out he used picture from someone from Taiwan. How CMB verifies their account, I already reported this matter to CMB and they seems less interested. This person has man accounts which CMB cant di nothing about, they do not care about customer service.

Previous review

Presents as a 38 yo from Australia who lives about ~250 miles from wherever you live. Claims to be born in California but raised in Europe. Claims to have a Masters degree and be a freelance project manager in the field of solar energy. Claims that he has a "tender" (proposal/business requirements) he is working on, that is due very soon and that is why his messages are sporadic. And... he attempts to be very smoothe but his English is broken. I didn't get very far with messaging him because I literally did a google image search to reverse look-up his photos. Be smart out there everyone... scammers are EVERYWHERE and they are worse than catfishing! -

He will be very nice and kind to you at first, then he started asking for money in a form of a ITUNES GIFT CARD VERY FAST! Met this guy back in october 2018; im redoing this review because i accidently deleted my original review; i meant to edit it.

To me this seems like a really time-consuming scam to perform, because whoever it is... they're definitely working hard to attempt to earn trust, asking lots of interesting questions that a real person might ask in attempt to get to know someone... and then I'm sure the money request will follow soon enough.

Can't get any connections, sends you just 2 "possibilities" a day, get basically nobody with any type of response! The worse so far, and quite a bit of $$ to get nothing in return!

I connected with a scammer/catfish on CMB last month. Long story short... we had chatted/phone calls for about 3 weeks on CMB app and whatsapp. I was told he is an architect and structural engineer located in London UK with a phone number 44-7405-*******. He ran into some project problems all of a sudden (his project building collapsed in Turkey) and asked $20K to solve his problem. Yes only 20K not $20M (a building collapsed with some injured compensation only $20K?!) His wrote decent english at the beginning but broken english at the end. Well, I know I have talked to some con artists! I blocked him and reported to my local police department and CMB immediately.

TODAY I FOUND THIS PROFILE WITH EXACTLY SAME PICTURES AND DESCRIPTIONS SHOWS UP IN MY "DISCOVER" SECTION AGAIN! WHAT DID CMB HANDLE OUR COMPLAINTS?!

P. S> These pictures in his profile are belong to a well known fashion designer in Taiwan. Exactly same person as Amy C. Reported here on Nov 25,2018.

Hi just wanna say that to everyone who's using this dating app, beware of this person. He's online name is Al in CMB dating app, fullname Alden Fierro(im not even sure if that true. He said hes half american/ half italian or I dont know if any of those are true. He's a very sweet guy indeed. He will make you fall for his words. He said he works in a solar power company and hes going to say that he is busy preparing for his tender. And then when the time comes your about to meet he'll tell you he need to fly to turkey for work and stay there for 3-5weeks. First he will talk to you everyhting about work and out of a sudden he will ask you for an itunes gift car $100 and the $200 until such time he will ask you to wire money amounting to $3000! Please beware of this guy. If you have the same experience or if you know him please free to comment. BEWARE OF THIS GUY!

Beware of Alexander Chua
December 7, 2019

Alexander Chua on CMB claimed to be a free-lance oil rig engineer who worked on an offshore oil rig. He claimed to be a Singaporean who has worked at Halliburton for 12 years before becoming a free lance engineer. He said he is an single child and his parents are no longer around. He said he has bought an apartment at Artra and he will be returning to Singapore at the end of 2019. Not long after chatting on WhatsApp, he mentioned his machine broke down and require financial help because he couldn't access his bank accounts on the offshore rig. He uses a UK number +*******xxx306.

Just beware of this person on CMB and not fall into his traps.

Update 26-Dec-2019: Even though his profile has been reported on CMB, this person is still active on CMB. So ladies, please watch out and report this person if you ever met him!

Presents as a 38 yo from Sicily and Oslo who lives about ~250 miles from wherever you live. Claims to be born in California but raised in Europe. Claims to have a Masters degree and be a freelance project manager in the field of solar energy. Claims that he has a "tender" (proposal/business requirements) he is working on, that is due very soon and that is why his messages are sporadic.

Be smart out there everyone... scammers are EVERYWHERE and they are worse than catfishing! -

Probably not everyone on CMB is a scammer, but one of the flaws of the app design is that you can only search for people up to 250 miles away from you - so any one scammer can have literally *hundreds* of accounts to search for scam victims.

To me this seems like a really time-consuming scam to perform, because whoever it is... they're definitely working hard to attempt to earn trust, asking lots of interesting questions that a real person might ask in attempt to get to know someone... and then I'm sure the money request will follow soon enough.

It would improve the app design if CMB would open searching to all over the country (to limit the number of scam accounts per region) and also to let chats stay open more than 7 days (to reduce the pressure of exchanging personal information too soon). Two huge flaws in the design will prevent me from using this app again.

I joined this site in hopes of meeting people that like me have no time for the real socializing that it takes to meet someone! I believe in actual communication and will not endure endless texting. First off I am confident that many of their man traps are not even in the United States I won't say how I know but be leery because there are many tell tale signs! Many of the profiles are written in a way that give clues to and only if you pay attention will you quickly discover there is a pattern. Many of these guys will claim to be out of the country for a short while or in another state for few days. If this is true CMB has some of the most traveled members I have ever seen! The other thing is and I really hate today it is the number of biracial pics posted! I know what year it is but just like the traveling thing I find it hard to believe that so many are not only featured that way but pushed that way too! As far as choices? I have to say they have been fun to look at all the pretty pics but really... I think the profiles are fake; and to support my claim a lot of the guys have later showed up as banned for "suspicious" behavior! Yes I have talked to a handful of guys and only one did I find interesting enough to stay in touch with, way too many send their bagels to meet me and don't follow through. I think that is administration's attempts to keep you interested! Yes there are a few American men whose profiles are real but trust me you will go through those quickly and get the fakers! Fortunately I have NEVER paid a dime to these people and from the looks of things I won't in the future!

Full of trash

Full of trash so does their staff. Instead of resolve issues, they will block you if you are in their way of business. Crime in silence!
Even in social media, they won't reply and block right away!

Out of the four guys that I have connected to on this site, ALL of them are scammers. None of their profiles are real. All they want is to victimize women and get money. Here is what to look out for:

1. All are from foreign countries, went to school in foreign countries and have an accent
2. All have children that they claim they are taking care of by themselves either because they are a widower or came out of a nasty divorce with full custody
3. They claim to fall in love with you very fast
4. They don't have any friends and their family has passed on.
5. They cannot prove that they are real. They do not video chat. When asked to take a selfie with the date on a piece of paper, they cannot do it right away. It takes days for them to photoshop one and then that defeats the purpose.
6. Two of the scammers claimed they worked on an oil rig
7. They never provide contact info
8. They try and get you off the site ASAP to chat in a different forum

Be very aware of this site and men by the name of George Cohen, Vincent Smith, Mike Brown and Carlos Loriloto. They are good at what they do.

Clearing House for scammers
September 19, 2018

I get the sense that this was never a dating site. Every single person that has contacted me on the site and I mean EVERY, has turned out to be a fake profile after online dating 101 investigation and some very short conversation. These red flags are the ones to look out for. Please understand one or two of these could be completely normal, but all the scammers on here use the same BS. You'd think professional scammers would come up with better schtick.

1. in the military
2. Widow
3 raising children on their own
4. Swear they're American, but write in VERY broken English which could not be jsu typos
5. Never just looking to date, meet, get to know someone... always looking for their soulmate.
6. Many times their profile answers do not match what they answer when chatting. I had one "widower" that had a 5 year old daughter and 8 year old son on his profile, but when I asked about his children, his son was 5 and his daughter was 8. He also said he was in Real Estate, but the company listed had absolutely nothing to do with Real Estate
7. They NEVER want to give proof of who they are... another online dating 101 rule. If you push for proof, conversation ends.

There's more, but I have wasted my time enough on this App and these scammers, so I'm deleting. Good luck with that karma scammers, and I wish only the best to all the single men and women actually, honestly seeking a connection.:-)

Catfish scammers!
September 10, 2017

Ladies beware! Im from NY and matched with a "Keven" from CT who happens to be an engineer. The profile pic is this really sexy, white as can be, buff man He also wrote in his profile he works for "El-Alan". I googled it and its an engineering company in NIGERIA! We did exchange phone numbers and when he texted me he introduced himself as "Kevin" and the way he texted indicated to me that he had an accent. So i called him bc i needed to hear it for myself. We talked for 2 minutes and he ended up having an accent saying he moved from Rome when he was 16. He also stated that he has a contract to work in Nigeria (yeah ok) I asked him if he spoke or understood Italian he said yes but when i busted out my Italian (which he didnt expect) he had no idea the basic simple question i asked in Italian. I knew he was full of it! I told him i wasnt buying his bull$#*! and hung up. Before i blocked him, he changed his employer to "n/a"! Ladies please please watch out. Always google EVERYTHING even phone numbers! Its a scary world out there!
