“Tons of fake profiles”

Mike B.

Avoid this con site! I gave AdultsFinder.club a final shot even though I was about to give up on the whole idea after my experience with HotOrNot. I trusted my gut feeling and started chatting with several women. I met my g/f within three days of signing up! Dating sites work but only when they are legit! There are almost no real people on HotOrNot (at least I'm convinced that there are almost no real women). Whoever owns and manages this phony site does not even try to work honestly and attract genuine people. All they need is a ton of fake profiles to make it look like a dating site and lure the gullible customers into a paid membership. When you cancel your subscription they just keep on charging you no matter what you do, they ignore your requests to cancel. It's risky and unwise to put your cc on this site because their cancellation policy is a rip off.

Is it wrong to put in the profile that I'm NOT into trans people? I'm a STRAIGHT MAN. I want children and a family in the future and I'm not out to randomly have sex with anyone and everyone. I'm on the date apps to meet someone special. I barely even chatted with anyone, other than the hellos and complimentary small talk, let alone spew anything hateful against a trans person because obviously I'd swipe left for non-cis women.

The site is a SCAM - it has what they call a "one click" upgrade, and it only takes you to click ONCE and it upgrades your membership instantly, without any confirmation. I got £29.99 worth of "credits" which I didn't want. I also got a lifetime membership for £119 and I only found out about it when I logged into my Paypal to check activity.

What a Scam Stay away! Lost my $$$, No refund. Shameless. Decided to buy 79 cent hot or not 1 day pkg just to see how it worked, mysteriously went to $69.00 Dollars? No way to cancel, strange radio buttons that do as they please, no email contact, had to search for phone #, and not toll free. Aaahhhhh I am so done with this site, r there any good dating sites anymore? D

Ive been banned twice, the first time for not replying to 60+ old men and they reported me. I sent a mail and asked and got a respons which was unprofessional. Made a new account, first few days I got a warning for the the same reason. Then I got banned because they apparently don't believe I'm over 18 when I'm 19. Worst app ever

Sign up you can only say hi and hello. To get a full access, you have to build the access a bit at this time by adding more and more and more money. It's not a straight forward dating site. Don't get trapped. If you sign via Paypal or your credit card beware that they automatically link and charge you every month without refund. You are going to get your money back forget it.

I've tried reporting an underage girl the told me she was 16 after swapping Snapchat ID's. There isn't a way to report underage use on the app nor is there a true way to contact customer support about the issue. *******470 is her profile ID. Her name is Layne and claims to be 18, even though she admitted to me she was 16. She even has a private picture up. Way to go Hot or Not by keeping us users safe of potential underage hook ups! Do something about this problem... thanks.

I was on the site for 2 weeks and chatted with a lot of women. Not one of them turned out to be legitimate. They were complete con artist. It's just a crappy app full of thieves and liars. I would think that considering you are paying for the service, they would do a little homework to authenticate their clientele. Piss poor. Don't do it.

1- you clear up all guys' profiles in your area in 4 days. After that they show you boys 50-100 miles away. So don't buy super powers for more than 1 week
2- even with superpowers, they don't show likes, which is impossible since I get favorited all the time
3- they don't refund for credits you didn't want to buy. If you dont uncheck the box for an autorefill when it goes below 200 credits, they will suck your wallet. They took more than $30 without my acknowledgement

I recently tried this app. I paid 31.99 to use it. The next day it started having a crush screen. It said to send a crush to someone you don't know and cost money to do so. The app no longer works without immediately going to the send a crush screen that costs money. I have already paid and am not going to lie and say I have a crush on someone.

You think that you will see a screen with price but the transaction done before you make any confirmation!

I already make some buying with this website but remove credit card information since long time but Hot or not Keep credit card information!

This app would be cool if you could actually talk too people without paying. I could understand like limiting amount of messages or likes or whatever. Then you could pay more to get unlimited everything. And i have yet too find a single dating website that dosent charge you. Also there is false advertisment on google. Where it says everything is free like free chat messages ect.

This site entraps new users to sign up and immediately asks them to upload their photos, which it immediately publishes online without even telling them. Then it traps them in an infinite loop of redirecting them to a "verify your account" page prompting you take a photo of yourself making a certain gesture. The thing is, there's no way to actually get past this page, no matter how many times you take the requested photo. You can't delete your account because in order to do that, you first have to access your account page, but the geniuses who designed this site decided to redirect you from the account page every time you attempt to access it and send you to the verification page... over and over again. In other words; they let you sign up and don't give you any way to delete your account. Then they use your photos to drive more traffic to their site. It's a scam run by absolute morons who have no idea how to do web development and should have never been permitted to touch a computer

Tip for consumers:
Don't EVER sign up for this site. I promise you it will be a never ending nightmare just to delete your account and take your photos off their site!

They offered single purchase for under 1 EUR. I'm really pissed they charged me 59.99 EUR and I probably have no way of getting it back. Scammers I say. I will file chargeback process on my card provider to see if they can cancel this. Will also try to contact Hotornot.

EDIT: Scammers got back with nonsense explanation:

Hello,

That you remove your payment details from your account to prevent this

I would be cautious when on this site met a retired military guy lonely, divorced I just so happen to be the most beautiful girl in the world and live an hour away. He would even relocate to be with me. Of course he has not been with a woman in 4 years because of his divorce, injuries. OK it gets better the first time we met he brought his 8 yr old daughter. That was strange. Every time we speak he makes a lot of graphic sexual comments.
Be careful a lot of scammers.

Call your credit card company immediately and dispute the charge, tell them you didn't get what you paid for. If you live in TX, the Credit Card company will cancel the charges if you complain within 3 days. So, my recommendation is you not spend a dime with them, but take advantage of what they offer for free, and no more. There were some women that I had to pay to contact, I think those women don't exist. I paid, contacted them, got no reply, and noticed that my location changed from my home city to a city 5 hours away. I communicated with another member, and her home city was incorrect. When I complained to HotorNot support, they said Sorry Charlie, you already paid, used some of the credits, we won't refund you, we won't credit you back he coins, and heck we won't fix the city to be correct, they didn't actually say all those words, just 'sorry charlie'. I called my credit card company to complain to get my money back. Also, they seem to point you at potential dating partners in cities in different states than you are.

They purposely block the google pics and tineye add ons that allow checking for catfish, and there's lot of them there. Why would a site with any integrity block that ability?

I had heard of this app before, but imagine my surprise when my irate boyfriend asks me why I have a hot or not account and sends me a link to an account (with my pictures, interests and full name) that I never created. I don't know how this happened, but I have a deep hatred for hot or not now and would really appreciate if there was an easier way to report fake profiles (many of my friends experienced the same problem)

I went to top up credits and it took payment without asking my permission or any payment options at all. Somehow my card was added to my profile without my knowledge...

I want my $15 back but they don't give refunds

Tip for consumers:
Don't use at all
