“Obviously another fake site!”

Alexis R.
9/6/20

I know one good site: J4L.club It's the only site that worked out perfectly for me. As for RomanceTale, it's obviously another fake site with the only objective to rip you of a maximum of money! SCAM! Loads of beautiful girls pretending to be interested in a 70 year old man only to make them engage in conversations etc that costs a lot of money. Stay away from this scam!

I have spend more than $2000 on the site, but got nothing! The ladies were just seduce you to stay chatting so you have to keep paying the site. They never make any real talking about relationship for real life, instead they only repeat talk randomly about things like weather, food, etc. The ladies show big interest to you and keep saying "I love you", but when you want to ask contacting them, they will totally ignore you. Stay away of the Romance Tale site! This is a totally scam site!

My brother was addicted to this fake site and spent a third of his income there. He was sure "Kim"
Was going to come to the states, buy him a house and a new sports car. After months of paying for chat and else, "she" was actually sending him sexual photos. He went bankrupt, is losing his house and was so broken hearted when she "broke up" with him because he could not pay for more time with "her" that he drank himself to death. Please do not go here.

These tales will last until you decide to turn them true and meet your Cinderella. But guess what? If she ever meets you she'll turn into pumpkin and take you shopping and want all your money. All they want me is to get gifts, $ or they want you to buy them a fur coat when you have your first date - they have a totally different attitude. The majority of Chinese ladies ( those that aren't fakes) are only interested in your $$, they don't care about your personality, wishes and so on. Basically it's sex for money, if you want something more genuine - try another place.

Dear Max,

Every feedback from our users is very important for us.
Your positive experience is truly important for us and we do our best to come up with the most optimal decisions to keep your time on the platform enjoyable.

We would like to inform you we diligently approve all users for registration on our site. Our validated members' profiles are not approved until we confirm their identifiers and history. Our affiliate partners make sure that there are no fictitious profiles so that the user you are looking at in the profile pictures is the user you are communicating with (such profiles are marked as "Validated member").

In addition, we try as much as possible to make sure that our validated members are interested in communicating with other users on the platform. We need to see photo IDs of all our trusted users. If a user makes us suspicious, we can take additional measures to verify the profile, for example by asking him/her to record a video for us to identify him/her. This, of course, makes it much more difficult for unscrupulous people to create fake accounts. Please note that we only allow buying gifts on our site for validated members.

Furthermore, we would like to let you know that our members have different final goals on the platform, like just chatting on the site and posting some interesting information or meeting new people and we respect that. You can always check the description of the member to match your interests or goals on the site.

I was sucked in by not 1 but 3 different girls all to the same result: sweet $#*! all. I deserve to be kicked in the $#*! for being so gullible!
Yun Lui 37, the billionaire $#*! from Shanghai
Yan Yang, 36 yr old lying $#*!, from Shanghai too, probably the same fake person
Beenle. Another 28 year old "virgin" LOL
Then there's Ying, 27, another "virgin" from Zhengzhou who owns multiple BMW dealerships Whatever!

Bottom line stay the $#*! away from this site!

Tip for consumers:
Don’t even waste your time looking at the al too beautiful woman, those are fake for sure.

Products used:
Buying credits for fake people on a fake dating site! This is a total fraud of a cash grab site!

This website is one that I have used 2 years ago and thought it had improved its service. However, it is still the same old money-making scammer of a system. The girls ask silly questions and give out lots of compliments for no good reason. The lady I am interested in refused to leave this website for another which shows that she or whoever only cares about making money and not dating. After spending hundreds and even thousands of dollars I still cannot obtain simple personal data or personal pictures. Stay away from this SCAM! Sad!

Tis site has fake women on here and their verification is a total joke. They also do not maintain their site at all. I believe women are paid to get you to chat and send letters. Beware of this site being a fraud.

Tip for consumers:
Avoid this site because I do believe that it's fraudulent.

The truth, in my opinion, is it is a fraud, as are the "women" who are, apparently, nothing more than paid sirens, apparently, hired to have lonely men buy more and more expensive lots of coins to spend on conversations with people who may be women who appear to being coached to appeal to the lonely heart's desire to hear. Stay away, if at all possible. I spent about $1,000.00 US {almost Y7,000 PRC) over a period of 6 months. The result of that and discussing of planning a trip to in-county, there was only baby food cereal platitudes of love and togetherness, without any effort to that outcome. Please be warned, stay away!

Most of the women appear to be paid by the website to extract money from you. They constantly ask for pics which cost 7 or 8 USD per pic. If you want to meet a lady (who claims to love you) they fade way... If you want to meet an Asian lady, go to Asia and be yourself. Thats how I met my wife after being scammed for six months on Romance Tale.

I contacted a girl on Romance take and explained to her I was on Victoria hearts and a girl kept coming up with excuses not to give her number and then changed her email. A girl on Romance take told me oh darling who would do such a thing to a handsome man are they blind? So I bought the credits to receive her details and guess what, the same thing happens as on Victoria hearts, just an email and pointing to a communication app that is in Chinese and can not be translated to English. They are just there to roll over the money and of they will get a percentage of it.

This site tries to trick you into spending more and more money, the 'women'never send messages which address your profile. Your inbox is flooded with messages, which cant be genuine. ( Even say you are handsome when you have no photo). The customer service 'replies'are received within minutes of your complaint, and never address your specific question. The prices are sky high, it is not worth risking your money on this scammer site with fake profiles. All the women, even the ones in their 50s look like models

This site and these others are a joke... Victoria Hearts and Asian Charm are all affiliated. I have had one profile view and 29 new emails... IMPOSSIBLE! Out of 29 emails received 4 profiles did not even exist... this site is very expensive so don't waste your money... they have models that are paid to be onsite... you don't have a chance guys... don't waste your time or money.

This website is so scandalous! Most if not all are fake profiles! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE! They have people that work for this site to get guys to buy and spend more credits. Fake Fake Fake all day long. They play on your emotions and say they want to marry you. Customer service is a joke as well, they give you generic answers all the time. They play dumb like they dont know whats really happening.
TOTAL SCAM STAY AWAY!

I wish I'd read the negative reviews about this site before shelling out hundreds. I'm a dope; should have realized that I was getting canned, fake 'replies'. Once I wised up, since there's no way around the 3000 credit requirement to even ask for (and yet not guarantee) a woman's contact info, I decided to do the following: I'd chat a bit and say "To prove to me you are a real human, and who you portray yourself as, send a selfie holding a paper saying "Hi XXX(my name)" and today's date. Did this a dozen times, never got a legit photo back. SAVE THY HARD EARNED $$$.

I am in my 70s and have not posted a picture. In the two months I have been on this site, I have gotten letters from about 200 20 somethings who are crazy about me and can't wait to meet me. Funny that in America, not a single 20 something would be the least bit interested. This website is phony as hell.

My lawyer is looking into it. He thinks this is going to put him "on the map"!. I'll get paid too... im good with that!

Like the other reviews posted here, i also spent money thinking that one of the amazing looking ladies may actually be real! Perhaps a few are... but if there were that many stunning ladies in China... we would all move there! The sad part is that even if someone on the other end is real... you will never know until you have amassed 3000 credits... do the math... Oh, and another small safety tip... when they talk about chatting at 2 credits per minute... that is for each individual "lady" you are chatting with. If you find yourself chatting with 3 or 4... that is 6 or 8 credits a minute... and do you really have a way to keep track of that?
There is one purpose to this site, and the other "Victoria" sites... to separate you from your money!
And BTW... Asian women to not ever send R rated messages... ever... that is not their culture!

The site is a complete scam. I spent some money, But when I was ready to go to China, none of the ladies had any time to meet me in person. I wish I saw the reviews before I spent my hard earned money.

Where do I start well for starters DO NOT USE THIS SITE romance tales i used it for a while talked to some nice ladys so I thought when i spent enough credits to get e. Mail details i thought great the start of some thing new. How wrong was i at first because i was spending money in chat and in letter as i sent and received e. Mails but when i said i was getting strapped for money could we just comunicate via e. Mails because it was free yes was the reply again fantastic but i only recived the odd e. Mail i contact th2 site they said they would fix it and yes they did for one e. Mail after several attempts with a couple of girls who said they wanted to get to know me even better it didn't happen one said she had to fo home from manchester to China i didn't hear from her for two weeks than she said hello how am i and told me a complete pack of lies and when o found out and told here she wasn't telling the truth she reported me to the site.
I decide enough was enough I asked the sit to delete my account.
And wait for this one they said they would deactivate my account only if i agree not to say anything bad about the site.
So please take it from some one who's been burnt a couple of times STAY WELL AWAY.
And if you're still on get the hall off.
It's not a case of sour grapes i spent a long time and money on romance tales and thought some peop, e who complained we just not happy and didn't give the site a Chan e I did and still got well and truly ripped off for thousands of pound DON'T BE A MUG LIkE ME. Thanks for this Mr B

In my opinion you can spend hundreds or thousands of dollars before you realize this is a scam where machines do the talking... look at all the Photoshop Chinese women... they are depicted with melon like boobs!... when in China you will be lucky to find one with apple size boobs. You can not get discuss a meeting or where you are staying in her town... if it is a real woman she gets **** instead of a hotel name. The site controls everything because a computer is handling the woman you think you are talking to if not a robot... I have spend 400 and I did not even get a telephone number... I went with -china love cupid- and -Vietnam love cupid-... and within a month of traveling there.(?)... I had bagged 6 Vietnamese and 3 Chinese... all for $160!

I am not a rich guy and I really need one of these rich women on this site or so they say to afford it for me. I can understand charging for certain things in order to keep the site up and running, But It costs almost 150$ for 750 credits. They charge you 2 credits per minute just to chat with one person. 30 credits per mail sent 50 credits to look at a picture or video contained in the mail and if the mail has any length at all they even charge you to read it. Needless to say the credits are gone before you know it. Dating sites like this should be considered criminal and shut down. As soon as I finish burning up the credits I have already wasted my money on. I am done with this site.
