It was my first dating experience after a long time being married. And such a disgusting. Terrible. Immediately after registration I was contacted by a crowd of pretty good looking men, all non smoking, not drinking, never been married and without kids. Advocates, doctors, models, business men of every kind. Actually all of them had very - astonishing - poor English, even for my non-native approach, the same lexicon, same syntax and pretty same manner to set smiles and other icons. Same! I chatted with one business man from Denmark, with two (advocate and lawyer) from the USA and one worker (cannot remember exactly of his metier) from Venezuela. Absolutely the same dialog manner in every case. They refused to switch to another messenger or even to email, and all of them had the same behavioral pattern: they send me one message per day at the late evening with a new photo ($10 for reading email and $60 for opening the photo). I stopped the dialogs after blowing up first $140. Slowly I got the idea:(
Please remember the one: even though the "customer support" claims they are fighting against scams the website is the ONLY instance who gets the profit from all these payments, and users are supposed to pay for each received and sent email, each chat, each received and sent photo - so that the business model' of the source is pretty plausible.
As I decided to delete my profile I couldn't reach out the support for a while, so I made an expose to the German police (only option I had as a German citizen) and turned with this info to the support. My profile was deleted within seconds!
Guys, if you are in the USA, please do the same - the source is a cyber crime without any doubts. Even the people from Dating commenting here like Daria and Alexander do not truly exist - and even they write the same style as profiles on Dating.
Totally fake and scame! Be aware!
