I had 5 so called Ukrainian women send me a message right out of the blue by saying how they had true intentions and wanted a relationship There is just something wrong with this picture. Then they just give out their email address. They write a long letter describing themselves with their life story. They all do the same routine. Then their intentions are to come live with, but one problem, they want you to send them money so they can obtain a passport, visa and plane ticket. Yes then coming to live with you is possible, but not right away and a tourist visa will not grant you that. It can take up to 2 years to be granted a permanent visa in the US. It's total scam. So Africa, is not the only problem with this scam. And also if you never thought of this, they will chat with you on Video Chat, so even with that you still can get scammed. This is a horrible site as it appears a lot of send sudden messages for really no rhyme or reason other than they just want your money. I'd say never try to date someone on this site because they won't date you. You want someone out of the country go on legitimate dating site or just go there to meet them. It's not possible, maybe in some instances, but very rare.
