Total fraud. Don't spend any time or money here. A majority of the profiles are fake. You'll constantly be bombarded with chat requests from fake ladies, and also emails from them. You cant chat or read the emails without paying fees. The messages and emails are written by staff or other people making money getting stupid MEN to pay fees on this site. Yes, MEN. (Women do not pay on this site!)

Keep away from charmingdate.com. It's owned by the same people as the equally fraudulent chnlove.com, and idateasia.com, and share the same member datatbase and fraudulent tactics.

An office of one of the chnlove.com family 'agencies' was raided in the last few days in Cebu, Philippines.
The chinese national owner, and a pinoy manager are in custody.
Prosecution is pending for fraud, pornography, and prostitution due to activities from this 'agent' of a chnlove.com site.
If you really want to get scammed, use one of these 'pay per message' sites.
The few dollars you spend per message add up quickly, and some person in a poorer country is happy to make a living, getting stupid men to pay for messages from 'fake' ladies.

Total FRAUD! Gagamatach was formerly known as Interlingvo. They run an extensive network of inter-connected dating sites, with many names, that are all fraudulent. The database of fake pretty ladies is shared by all of the sites.
You will be encouraged to pay for membership, and to pay for translations of messages from the fake ladies. The people you are in contact with via this site are not the pretty ladies in the pictures, but somebody making money getting gullible men to pay for services. Total fraud!
The 'employees' also heavily spam other dating sites, and seek customers on other dating sites, paid and free. They'll set up profiles on other sites, and send messages to the men claiming they can't speak english, but you can talk to them and get translations of messages from them at one of the gagamatch sites, which they provide a link to. This is total BS. Don't spend any money at the various gagamatch sites. (they pop up new site names and URLS almost weekly, hard to keep track of them.) Paying for 'translations' on a dating site with a Russian, or Chinese lady, is usually fraud. Real ladies who are seeking a man from your country will know some of your language, or will be learning. If you can't communicate directly, without paying bogus fees, it's not likely you are in contact with a real person. Guys, hot, young asian ladies do not seek out middle-aged or older, Western men, online, unless they are up to no good, or it is total fraud. Get real. If you enjoy this kind of fantasy, it can get expensive.

Too many stolen pictures and fake profiles, with many easily identified as West African scammers. This site is not worth your time. There's no excuse to have profiles that are easily identified as those set up by West African scammers, and it only takes a very modest amount of training, and time, to keep most of them out.

Keep out!
Most of the letters you get from 'ladies' are written by people making money, getting men to pay for letters, not the girl!
Too much fraud goes on in these 'pay per message' sites, and most men do not get suspicious until after they have spent hundreds, or thousands of dollars.

You can find nice ladies online from Asia, but you need to do your homework, and not get the misconception you can 'buy' a lady, or throw money around and have miracles happen. You will lose money.

Do not use these 'pay per message' sites. Keep the age gap reasonable, and don't send money, or throw money around when/if you go visit the lady.

The real ladies who may be looking for a decent man, and interested in a man from your country will be know some of your language, is learning, or willing to learn, and will communicate with you directly.

See that face on cam! Talk on the phone.

We also have a problem with 'translator/brokers' in China, and sometimes Thailand, who act as agents for single ladies, may conduct all the communication on her behalf, and frequently are involved in some fraud or deception. You may never know you are talking to somebody other than the lady in the pictures, until you arrive to meet the lady, and she speaks no english.
(Or your language) You may also arrive to be met be a completely different lady, or no lady at all. Some of the 'brokers' will do anything to get a warm body to China, then do a 'bait and switch'. The broker will also expect payment if you decide to marry the lady.

This is not a simple 'mail order' bride fantasty. There are many scams, and situations of financial abuse. You need to do your homework, be careful, and learn to say 'NO'.

This site posts misleading and inaccurate material, and appears to exist solely to generate income from promoting sites which pay them commissions.

Many of the profiles on idateasia are fake. Please do not spend any money here!
Within the last few days, police in the Philippines raided an office that was producing fake profiles, and defrauding men via idateasia.com
The owner of this office is a Chinese national, and in custody. The workers in this office have given statements to the police that they create fake profiles, and communicate with men on this site, posing as the lady in the picture, while earning commissions from idateasia for 'sales'. The Philippines police is also investigating allegations of internet pornography, and prostitution via this office.
You can find the news articles on local papers in Cebu easily by google.
This is also how some of the 'agencies' that operate on idateasia, and chnlove operate from within China.

Total FRAUD! Interlingvo is now known as Gagamatch. They run an extensive network of inter-connected dating sites, with many names, that are all fraudulent. The database of fake pretty ladies is shared by all of the sites.
You will be encouraged to pay for membership, and to pay for translations of messages from the fake ladies. The people you are in contact with via this site are not the pretty ladies in the pictures, but somebody making money getting gullible men to pay for services. Total fraud!

This is another of the Asian 'pay for play' sites, that is mostly populated by fake ladies. The pretty ladies in the profiles are not real, but you will get pushed to communicate with somebody pretending to be these ladies, and you have to pay for the messages, or translation of the messages. The messages are not from the lady in the pictures, but somebody making money getting you to pay for messages, and other features of the site. KEEP OUT!

This is a free site that does have some real people on it, but always has a significant percentage of scammers lurking, including West African scammers.
Use caution, protect your personal information, never send money to somebody you only know from the internet. Findloveasia seems to be un-monitored by the owner, be careful. Always expect to see a face on cam, and don't accept pictures as proof you are in contact with that person. There is also no reason to send money to 'help' struggling Asian ladies who are online. If they have money to be online, they are not starving. I do run into Filipina scammers, or 'beggars' on this site. Don't send money. The ones who ask for money are doing this to make a living from gullible men.

This is a paid site with a long history, going back to printed, catalogs of Asian 'brides' they would send out by mail. There is a problem with scammers at this site, and they don't appear to do much to protect paying members from scams.
Vote with your feet and wallet, keep out!

I see fake pictures being used on profiles, either stock photos of pretty asian ladies, or stolen pictures of pretty asian models, actresses, or other celebrities.
This means either the site owner is 'padding' the site with fake profiles, (common), or these are fakes, or scammers behind the profiles.
There is no excuse to have stolen pictures being used on dating sites. It means the site owner doesn't care, doesn't take a few seconds to check, or is crooked!
It only takes a few seconds to identify the source of the stolen pictures using google image search. There's no excuse! When I see a site like this, I warn people to keep away.

Some scammers, use this site with caution. This is mostly a paid site, but you can communicate with limits without paying. Never send money to somebody you only know from the internet or phone calls, and always expect to see a face on cam.
Keep the age gap modest, and be honest. Research the country they are from, the culture, and possible scams or fraud from that area. Online dating is a fantasy world that can get expensive. There are some nice ladies online from Asia looking for you, but immigration and a better life are always part of what attracts them to you.

Matchdoctor.com is crawling with West African scammers, pretending to be anyone, from anywhere. Keep out.
If you are attempting to meet somebody real online, never send money for any reason to somebody you only know from the internet or phone calls, and always expect to see a face on cam.

Keep away from this site, unless you are interested in looking at pictures of many, female, asian celebrities! (Pretending to be real girls, looking for a stupid old man to love!)
The owner of this site also spams other sites, trying to get business for his fraudulent dating site. KEEP OUT! Too many fake profiles, and it's a PAID site. No excuse. This is just outright fraud. Keep your wallet in your pocket, keep away from philippine-singles.com!

Most of the pictures you see for ladies in China are stolen, and are of models or other celebrities. Asiandatelink.com appears to be crawling with fakes, and scammers, and the profiles are not monitored or checks. Keep away from this site!

This is a paid site, and I see reported scammers as members as soon as I look at the site. There is no excuse for this. One person I see was reported last summer, the report pops up on google when you do an image search, and the report is on a reputable anti-scam site. This means the operators of this site are doing nothing for the money they collect from members. No excuse.

Melindaspenpals.com is one of the few sites that makes an attempt to keep scammers out, and control questionable activity. It's 'OK'

I see too many stolen pictures of models, actresses, and other celebrities being used on profiles, and many are obviously in use by West African scammers.

Please avoid this site!

You should always expect to see a face on webcam, and never send money.
The scammers who use stolen pictures will have many excuses to not use a cam.
Do not accept pictures as proof you are in contact with the person in those pictures.
Learn how to use 'google image search' to detect stolen pictures.

Too many profiles with stolen pictures of actresses, models, and other celebrities.

KEEP OUT!
