I am 72. On most mail-order bride sites, I am lucky to get (1) reply from those I have solicited. On City of Brides (in Nikolaev), I was getting 100%+. Meaning I was getting "internal e-mails" from 23 y. O. to 40 y. O. way out of my age range and interest. I changed my profile to no-name and deleted my photo. I wrote a profile corresponding to a 7-year old. I still got replies. I was focused on one 55 y. O. and asked her to sign IMBRA document at one of their local offices in Kharkiv, so I could get her actual e-mail address, as COB charges $9.99 an e-mail + $3.50/jpg. It got quite expensive. She, and others, I had written failed to sign the document, so I could write them directly. (I can read/write in Russian). It became obvious to me that I was just writing to and getting a reply from one of their "mail-processors" to generate their e-mail fees ad infinitum. I can't say, the person I was writing was ever real. To me, they just kept me writing with these faux replies, to generate more revenues. All they want to do is sell expensive tours. This site <cityofbrides.com>, and their affiliates <cityofbrides.net> are total frauds. Uploaded is a screen print of the profile I was interest in. I spent $100s of dollars for nothing. I don't have any "proof of purchases" other than my credit card statements. DO NOT PATRONIZE THESE SITES! They will waste your time and money.
