“Let your story be as happy as mine”

Peter A.
12/9/23

I decided to write a review about J4L before Christmas. Better late than never. The coming Christmas reminded me whom I need to thank for the happy year that I had. Believe it or not but it's this site! I am one of the guys who met their wives on J4L. I was brave enough to take a trip to Ukraine and I went back home to USA with the most amazing woman in the world. We got married and we are very happy together. I'm writing this review 2 days before our wedding anniversary. I hope your story will be as inspiring and happy as mine.

More than 95/98% of ladies are fake in profile or scammer translators. None of successful stories here ever. Even you meet some ladies in real after pumping hundreds of thousands dollars, all of them are money diggers! Either they want you pay much higher than market interpreter or want something related with money. Never pay their interpretations service! Stay away this site!

It is a scam. I wrote to 2 different women and surprise they both said they live in my city. Both said thwy wer eager to meet so we set a date, time and place. They were sending me messages up until 5 minutes before we were to meet. Then crickets. Not until 3 or 4 hours later they send me a message like we had never met before. Scam

So I spent enough money to get a girls contact info ~280$ over 3 weeks of chatting. During this time there was a few red flags. She did not want to video chat cuz she had no makeup on, she didn't have any pics of her parents and her, in one of her letters she stated she knew I was off work one day when I was not and never told her I was, finally she told me to call her so I did call her on the phone she did answer and I asked if it was her she said yes but she couldn't talk at the moment. I asked why. She said she can't right now. No real answer. I asked again why can't u talk she replied I already explained it. I then replied really? She said yes. I said ok goodbye. I then texted her and she has not replied. So she tells me to call her over the website then when she answers she can't talk. Lol wth! All those steamy letters and I love you. Well at least I only blew 280 dollars and not thousands. I'm out and I will never do that again. If I decide to try again I will use a reputable matchmaking service.

5 times a scam and this company, they call there self's a communication platform and are not responsible for any actions from the women. They pay the women to scam and write as many letters as possible.

Tip for consumers:
It's a pity that the government let it go. It cost men a lot of time and money for nothing.
I have the prove that they allowed scam and fake profiles in my email.

I have communicated with Lina Rudenko for two years and after I arrived in UKRAINE and being here more than a year she still sends me messages on the site, making promises off wanting to see me... It's all lies because I eventually met Lina in real life and she told me not to communicate on the site but personally as the site use translators which drain you for money... J4L and datingtomarriage belong to the same people. Stay away, I am living in UKRAINE and it's a big scam, both these sites... Jay..

Chat to a girl back and forth for ten minutes, cost you 30 Euro! No actual place on site to find out what you are being charged. Cant find schedule of fees. Then it claims it is better than a monthly membership as you are only charged for what you use. Bahahahahahaha. A monthly fee wouldnt be as expesnive as 30 Euro to chat to a super model for 10 minutes. Then you look at how to get contact details to chat off site. It actually says it patrols chats to make sure contact info is not being exchanged. To protect the girl. Oh hahahahaha. To protect the sites profits more like. There is a button to ask for girls contact details, that costs you 20 credits! And then they say they will scan your messages to make sure you are not a scammer before they provide you the details. Sounds like garbage, they are not going to allow you to chat off site. This site is daylight robbery, only ugly billionaires should use it - daylight robbery!

It will chew your money up faster than a slot machine in Vegas

I have been on this site since April and had a variety of experiences, although none of them positive beyond some enjoyable conversations. This site is designed to generate revenue. And it is not alone in that. I suggest that you capture profile images from any of the women and reverse image them using the website pimeyes.com. You will see the identical profile photos in several sites, so the they are casting a wide net here. I have been helping a young woman claiming to be in Ukraine with her work situation. When I scanned her photos in Yandex, I discovered the images were taken from a social media site and the imaged person is actually in another country at the moment and not responsible for the content on j4l. Thus this profile is the front for a catfish. Now, why read the Risk Notice? 1. the site states that you may not be talking with the person who you think you are, that is the person in the profile. They use the excuse of translators, but that is just a cover. 2. while the site offers camera content of the women in chat mode, the site states that it is possible that the videos are pre-recorded, something they claim they cannot control or discern. That being the case then, it is also possible that during chat time, you are still communicating with someone other than the person in the profile. And 3. Most important is the site's admission that revenue sharing is provided as an incentive to generate more income for the site. Thus it is in the women's best interest to keep conversations going. For some, it took several weeks for them to stop writing to me after I had dropped them from my letters. Since I have been deceived already by more than one woman on this site, it is impossible to believe that any of them are sincere. They persist in their requests for real meetings, but I have found that most will not share their contact information, and if they do, they seem unable to communicate with you for one reason or another using any apps such as Telegram or WhatsApp. And of course, the phone number provided is never already part of an account on any of these apps. Still, I feel sad for the women on the site. I think for many it may be their only source of income during the war, since many are unemployed at the moment. So if you enjoy having pleasant chats with someone who may or may not be the person in the profile, go ahead and support the Ukraine economy.

Let me write to you what a girl explained to me, and then evaluate yourself if you are on front of a Digger money or not.
The site administration contacted me and offered a contract so that I would transfer my page to the manager who would conduct a dialogue instead of me. I was offered 10% of what one of the men will spend on communicating "supposedly" with me

J4L is a complete fraud. The letters you receive are fake. I deleted all my photos and nearly all my profile information. I also changed other profile information like my age to 78 and weight to nearly 300 pounds at a fake 5'6" height and continued receive letters. What real lady writes letters to a profile like that with no photos? This fake money hungry site does with bots.
Lastly, I did a video chat with a woman who didn't look like her photos. She just sat looking into the screen while periodically fake smiling. She only looked down at the keyboard maybe twice during that 40 minute video chat. That means she posed for the camera as some guy or lady typed back and forth with me. That was the only video chat I ever did on the site. I was convinced then that the site was a money hungry fake site.
I have given you examples of why to stay away from that site J4L. You have been warned not to waste your time or money. They only got a small amount of money out of me before I quickly figured the fake site out.

Tip for consumers:
That the site is fake!

Like so many international video enabled dating sites it pays its girls to talk to you. If you get a good one you might even get a peep show. Why they do this, the amount of money they can make off of you. Here is their ad on VK to hire 'translators.' Easy enough to find if you have VK account, or just use a translation app if you do not know Russian. So you tell me if you still think that at 19, 20, 21 year old girl is hot and bothered for a 63 year old man, if you get my meaning. I have a few friends that work at these sites, most of them say the same thing, they would not touch or date a foreign man after their experiences working for these sites. The women are not fakes in the sense of a fat man at a computer somewhere. No most are college students. Most do not have children. And despite the easy of finding social media accounts, most that do have relationships are taught how to cover those up just in case her victim, err, date, is curious and starts looking for her online. They are also instructed not to talk to you outside of the site, or if you buy/earn her contact, to drag you back to the site. Her explanation is that she only has internet at the agency, her computer is on loan from the agency, she just does not have time right now - there are a few more that some of the ladies have mentioned. I personally have made friends from some of these ladies (most from networking on VK) and the stories they tell are disgusting, funny and scary. Note the money they make from the sites is enough to buy a computer in a short time. My favorite source does tell me that all the girls are paid at least a commission, at least for the company she works for.

At first I thought this website was genuine, it turned out to be full of engineering and fraud. They deliberately hired those women to spend our money. I warn you not to use the j4l site because it is full of fakes. I am a victim of that scam.

They know the psychology of males, so they designed the site to lure males. All the profiles are fraud and fake. They are looting males. Ladies write you many letters and you are offered to discount price but once you start purchasing the credits all the discounts vanish and they charge you double.

I wrote here now nearly 3 years and lost a lot of money for tricky girls and sitesupport. A lot of invitations for chats and tricks to generate income for this site by a lot of girls. I meet 2 girls last year in Kyiw and invited them for dinner and also did not get there phonenumber, or number was not reachable, phone broken (happened many times with some girls) or other tricky reasons.
I meet some local people in Kyiw and they explained me that this happened often with this site.
I also meet a girl there without this site,
This site is generating money by tricks of the girls and also there support.
Better go to other, more serious sites.

When you add more credits. All of a sudden you get hundreds of new emails. Well. A LOT. Like they want you to add credits. And the women send emails as soon as you add money to the site... think about this.? What is going on? Women who won't give you their personal email or info... they say it is not possible to get a free email... what is this

How about a site where you write in "About myself" 'I am 5 feet tall, fat, plenty of zits, and bad teeth. And in the "About my partner" 'I am told that only scammers are on this site. Can anyone proves me wrong?' Now, not only no one even attempted to prove me wrong, many wrote that they loved my profile and that they had so much in common with mine. Really? Of course, the fact that I brought in a picture that only a mother could love, I received over 200 letters within 6 hours being online by models.

Come on people, this is ridiculous! CLEARLY, this site is managed by crooks.

J4L has a ton of profiles featuring lots of beautiful women. The instant you create a profile and purchase credits you will receive tons of letters. Sometimes 20 or 30 a day. In no time you will have over 1000 letters in your inbox. But the letters stop when you are out of credits. As soon as you buy more credits the letters come pouring in again. And all these girls claim that the only way to communicate is through this site (red flag). They will tell you that their computer is old or the wifi is bad or that they need a new phone and sim card to get you to stay on the site and keep feeding the meter, aka buying more credits. If you tell them that you can both use WhatsApp or Viber to communicate for free, they act like this technology is beyond their comprehension or they don't know how to download apps to their smartphone (red flag)
And this site relies on translators of your letters. And they review and delete content from your letters. If you try and give a girl your phone number or even an email address, the site will block or delete this content. And there's no way of knowing if the girl you're writing a letter to is the one that's writing you back. Since they use different translators, who get paid btw, you and a girl will be having a discussion in your letters to each other, but then the next day this same girl has no recollection of the previous conversation. It's like your speaking with two different people (red flag). This site is a money pit. Save yours and don't believe the hype

Read the risks section on the site that specifically states some "suppliers" pay the women for money men spend on the site to communicate. I was on the site for 2 years and the women are NOT real. In fact the same section states that your correspondence may be replied by someone other than the intended recipient.

They just want to keep you on the site as that is how they make their money. They may promise to meet but when the time comes they have an excuse and set another date so they can keep you talking and taking your money.
Stay away.

Many profiles of gorgious girls, probably stolen from other dating sites. After spending approx 3.000$ not even 1 result. Many promises about meetings, contactdetails.
You have to pay by letter sending, so thousands of questions are send to you.
Like: how is your day? Do you miss me? What should i bring you when i travel to you? Do i need a vaccination? How much cash can i bring in to your country?
I changed my profile to a man of 122cm height, 99 years old and removed my photos. Even then (their robot probably) send you letters from women, like: you are my type, can we meet in real, i fell in love reading your profile and so on.
Guys, don't spend not even one $ to this $#*!.
