I will have to agree about this site. The articles and video are amazing and there are so many things to invent on this site. I am really fascinated and interested. There is one invention I have seen where the history channel said it was not possible to invent that some guys who are featured on the site actually invented. I am totally blown away!

Roger Sears who (is at this time) the operations manager for AnastasiaDate.com did a "rebuttal" as he claimed when the lies of AnastasiaDate.com were exposed on scaminformer.com. He presented however more lies to try to cover up the existing ones that were already exposed!

However someone exposed his lies and so I present you his lies and the exposure of this lies

Firstly the lies of Roger Sears (at this time) operations manager

Please let me rebut the comments stated on this report, which are inaccurate, misleading and not at all indicative of the experience enjoyed by the thousands of loyal members who use Anastasiadate.com to successfully meet beautiful foreign ladies from Eastern Europe.

Live Chat

The chat service is tremendously popular with our members and is a great way to get closer to the Ladies in real time.

There are options to use text chat and video chat on this service. Live Chat is competitively priced, there are no hidden charges, all the costs are clearly labeled on the chat window and in the Service Description on the site, in the FAQ and also in the customer service guide.

The service can also be used from your Android or iphone. Chat is billed by the minute. Any
Confusion over pricing can easily be addressed to our Customer Service Team which works round the clock.

Anti Scam

AnastasiaDate.com has the most effective anti-scam team within the International Dating industry. It is there to detect scam, remove scammers and reimburse clients if a scam has happened. 99% of the time we prevent scam via our robust interview process,

Use of our internal black list, profile moderation process, telephone interview process and
Other internal procedures.

Occasionally we do detect scam, and it is to our credit that we take action and remove scammers when we detect them. No site is perfect, but we strive to achieve 100% in scam detection.

Marriage Fraud

The Ladies on AnastasiaDate.com do not commit marriage fraud. Specifically in the example you have given, and from what I know about you personally (you have posted many times against AnastasiaDate.com),

Your personal correspondence with this particular lady led to enormous pressure on her to agree to marry you before you even visited her or met her in person. We recommend that all clients use common sense, and do not commit to marriage until they have at least met the Lady which whom

They are corresponding. Pressurizing Ladies to agree to such proposals before meeting is a recipe for disaster, as I think that anyone would recognize.

Advertising

AnastasiaDate.com does not focus on any particular racial group through its advertising. To suggest that it does is inaccurate and misleading. AnastasiaDAte.com is enjoyed by members from all over the world as a place to come to together to find a foreign bride, and our female

Members are also seeking romantic and gentle male members from all corners of the globe.

Customer Service

The AnastasiaDate.com customer service team is available 7 days a week, round the clock for the convenience of our clients, and they reply to each and every question that is sent in by our members.

There is strict quality control within the department. The team is always monitored and mentored and receives constant training on the product and service provided, as well as best practice in dealing with clients.

Any complaints against the Customer Service team are escalated to Senior Management and receive a personal response.

Quality of the Ladies on the site

AnastasiaDate.com is the most prestigious and popular international dating site within Russia, Ukraine and several other East European countries.

We spend an enormous amount of time and money in developing the brand and the image of the site to our female members, so that our male clients find the best selection of female clients possible. Anastasia has the highest brand recognition and recall rate amongst Ladies in Ukraine than any other International Dating site.

Ladies are not, never have been and never will be paid to chat on the service. The Ladies on the site are here to meet charming western gentlemen. There have been countless Sociological and Academic studies pertaining to the usage of international dating sites by foreign women.

There is a genuine demand by Eastern European Ladies to find their soulmate outside of their home country for a variety of reasons, and AnastasiaDate.com is their site of choice to find such men.

When a lady registers on anastasiadate.com, they are single and unmarried. Our task is to change that, so that they develop relationships with our male clients.

They leave the service wither when they form a relationship with one of our clients, or when they form a relationship outside of our service.

Clients who correspond with Ladies on Anastasiadate.com can be sure that their correspondence is real and genuine. Via video chat, clients can also see the ladies they are corresponding with in real time.

Telephone Translation Service and IMBRA

In order to protect the female members on our site, and in compliance with the International Marriage Brokers Regulation Act, AnastasiaDate.com allows users to contact each other, but they should meet in person before they swap private contact details.

This is reasonable in theory, although while our male clients are mainly in the US and our female clients are in Ukraine this is often problematic.

Using the Telephone translation service, which includes high quality live translation provided in real time, as well as including the cost of the international call itself, clients are able to contact the lady
Directly, therefore allowing them to swap contact details.

This service is very fairly priced given the level of translation and the inclusion
Of the long distance international phone call.

BBB

We are no longer part of the BBB. The actual process of resolving complaints using BBB methodology does not make a great fit with a dating site.

We answer all client questions within 24 hours, as well as answering questions in real time on the phone and via Live Chat to customer service.

Each and every issue is resolved to the highest possible standard, in fitting with our high reputation. If this were not the case, we would not be running the single most popular International Dating site in operation, and have been doing so for over 10 years.

Should any other clients or potential clients wish to discuss this
Report further, please contact us directly via our Customer Service Page

Yours Sincerely

Roger Sears

AnastasiaDate.com Operations Manager

Now the lies of Anastasiadate.com exposed!

THE LIES OF ANASTASIADATE.COM: THE REBUTTAL (Also known as Anastasia-international.com and Anastasiaweb.com)

Rebuttal: Please let me add to the comments which are inaccurate from Roger Sears which are misleading, inaccurate and not indicative of the many experiences out there who complain about anastasiadate. Com

Roger Sears
AnastasiaDate.com Operations Manager

You just made me mad! Defending your lies with your so-called damage control. Well Guess what I shall expose your lies for all to see and its time to expose you for all to see

Lie 1. Live Chat:-Live Chat is a robbery system because those who have live chatted will know from experience that there are times that live chat sometimes takes more money than it should take.

One person complained that they paid for 20 minutes and got only eight minutes of live chat. It is expensive and bleeds your money dry and ladies who are known as prochatters are set up there to chat with you so that much of your money is used up in chatting.

Wrong Mr. Sears Chat may be billed by the minute but if the lady turns on her camera instead of paying one credit for one minute one has to pay two credits for one minute. There is no confusion here!

On no1sitereviews.com a gentleman named DG got to know the inner workings of Anastasia Date.com and said

"Guys, let me share with you a personal story: I speak fluent Russian, lived in Ukraine for a long time, and now live in Texas. I'm in my mid-30's, average looking, stable job. Recently I traveled to Odessa, Ukraine, to meet several girls from Anastasia.

Since I was able to speak the language fluently, I befriended ladies and got to know them pretty
Well. I also learned from them the "inner workings" of the dating service of "Anastasia." I could NOT believe what I heard...

Girls told me that sometimes one girl will write responses to as many as 5 different guys, or even worse another Ukrainian guy will pretend to be a girl when responding to you! Yikes!"

This is also confirmed by a lady client named Marina from Kiev on the same site no1sitereviews.com!. Here is her story

"I would like to tell personal story about Anastasia.com. I am girl from Kiev (Ukraine), I am nice, well-educated and I know English. I wanted to find serious relationship with help of site Anastasia. Well, I registered on the site with my real name and stated that I am woman looking for a man.

Can you believe, some mistake has happen and I started to receive invitations from girls to be a member and to chat with them or to read their e-mails? I felt that Anastasia doesn't expect girls to make registration by themselves;

They prefer to work with local agencies. Well, than I met a girl who was working in the local
International dating agency, partner of Anastasia. She told me that she needs to write and send hundreds of e-mails every day, trying to make new members and to have chat with them.

She receives percentage from payments. Also I found many ads in the local press, where girls are
Invited to work in chat with foreigners. Also there are special people in the agencies, who write very emotional letters about love and relationship"

This means that many, many, many and not just a handful are involved in a
Scam operation on the site and this will be proven later on!

Lie2. Anastasia's Antiscam and Marriage Fraud Claim is not true at all. It is a diversionary tactic set up by them to divert those from not seeing their deliberate allowance of scammers onto their site.

For example Elena Matsuk id: ******* (anastasiadate) was on their site and later on committed marriage fraud and is now blacklisted permanently. She can be found on the following sites:

www.lawantiscam.com/scam-list/77/

http://shaz444.ipage.com/index/6701.html

http://www.stop-scammers.com/scammer.asp?id=5929

Sorry you have me confused with someone else since I did not correspond with the lady but I know the story very well where anastasiadate.com was going to be taken to court over the issue.

This is an absolute lie where Roger Sears says: "your personal correspondence with this particular lady led to enormous pressure on her to agree to marry you before you even visited her or met her in person" Lies!

I present to you the actual story from forum.fiance.com with the actual person who dealt with her who goes by the name shaz444. Here is the story and not the LIES that Mr Sears wishes us to buy!

Topic: Another scammer Elena Matsuk (ID: *******)

"These are my facts with her:

Corresponded for over 7 months writing deep emotional & hard letters about my previous experiences with other girls & how bad it has been already with online dating, so she was my last try & she said she won't let me down.

Had 6 7 long video chats during the period.

Had 10-11 phone conversations.

Decided to meet in Odessa ASAP, but I was waiting to cross check her. She was insisting I come immediately.

I asked her to let me introduce to her parents, all she said they know about you & they think you are nice man.

I asked her for her parents postal address, she said it was broken! She hasn't up till now given the real postal address.

I just asked her last Saturday will she sign a legal marriage document when I meet her, she said "I would love to".

Guys I am just trying to warn you do your homework before you make any plans going abroad? So I booked my flightand

Orbitz in Polish airline for $1157

Ukraine visa for $142 rush service.

Anastasia Apartments for 11 days for $900

Lawyer in Odessa to process No impediment certificate for marriage to UKR Citizen $180

Travel insurance $50

Car rental for 11 days $650

Guess what was her last letter today when I told her my flight is booked for October 28 flying to Odessa 6:53 pm & reaching Odessa in the morning, I got her letter today saying "I can't meet you because I have to go with my friend to another country. I hope you understand".

Ok fine emergency do happen, but come on, be rude to me instead keep me hanging on! I am
Human being too?

Ok, now for the costs, I had to cancel everything which I had paid for, I have lost about $900 on cancellation charges but I am still keeping my insurance for a later date. She just didn't make me come all the way & waste more money OR most important my time!

Really I have nothing against Russian / Eastern Europeans but this has got me changing my mind about girls from this part of the world. These girls are good at writing letters, that's what convinced me at first.

Our American/Canadian girls might not be that pretty to post profiles on regular/local websites as these girls here are, but really I will go out with any average babe now before I get scammed.

Concerning scammers and this is found on the http://www.complaintsboard.com again: Between July 2010 and October 2010 there was a scammer found on the site:

Her name is Vika Tkachenko, Lugansk Ukraine

She can be found on: http://www.scammerlist.com/memberid/*******_819de8c2

As well as she can be found on: http://www.russian-scammers.com/Russian_dating_scams/

Lie 3-Customer Service: It is true that the customer service is available 24 hours but they are available to be RUDE and disrespectful to clients at times. Having dealt with the phone call service at

Anastasia myself I have seen this to be the case after being rudely told to be quiet!

Lie 4-Quality of Ladies: The ladies may appear to be of quality but NOT all are as Mr. Sears explain. You see I present fact after fact after fact.

Here is a doctor whose story found on the http://www.complaintsboard.com bears witness of the lack of quality with the ladies! He is obviously an intelligent man and would know what he is talking about being that he is a medical practitioner and so here is his story!

"The problem is in the actual women on there.

If the women on this site look too good to be true, that's because they do! I am 35,6? 2?, not bald, not fat, and a successful doctor in Canada. I decided to give this a chance as my ex of 3 years had left me and I wanted to try something new. Boy, was I in for a shock!

After spending close to $1000 on the site, I connected with three women. I traveled to Ukraine to meet them.

The first had totally lied about her English ability. She had it put it to "advanced" on her profile. She knew not a single word in English. Without telling me, she brought an Anastasia interpreter who charged $20 per hour.

They insisted on meeting at only this one restaurant, which I did just to be nice. They then ordered the most expensive items on the menu, bringing the bill to $300. They suggested that I take them to another restaurant of their choice the next day (and to that I said no).

The next date turned out even worse. Even though she spoke good English, she brought her cousin to this restaurant of her choice. Without asking me and in Russian, they ordered 8 dishes of appetizers! And the most expensive wine and entres on the menu.

I finally got so pissed that I got up and left. They then threatened to call the police on me and holding me hostage in the country. I threw $150 at them and got the heck out of there (total bill would have been north of 400 had I stayed).

The third date did not even show up.

Don't waste your money and stay home. Date women in your own neck of the woods. That's my advice.

These women think of foreign men who go there as suckers. They don't care what you look like, or what you do. They just want to take you for a hell ride and leave you feeling so empty and used."

Here is what another person named Jay T who wrote on scamvictimsunited.com

Jay. T Says:

Im a 35 year old guy living in Australia and Have been a past user of this site. Unfortunately

I also spent hundreds of dollars communicating with a handful of girls hoping to find that someone special in my life in 2006.

Like you i recieved many many letters and it was quite hard choosing who i wanted to write to as they were all so beautiful!

But after some thinking i narrowed it down to 5 girls which i thought i would get on with. Many many letters and even a few phone calls ( which cost me more!) i arranged to meet them on person as had previously

Arranged to go to Odessa (Ukraine) for my 5 week vacation. They said were all looking forward to meet me so i was really excited not knowing what was going to happen.

After i settled myself in Odessa i contacted all the girls i had been communicating with and was looking forward to seeing them in person. But what happened next really made me see i had made a big mistake in using this site.

According to all the girls they were all out of the city on business and unfortunately they were not able to meet me! WHAT THE!. There was only one girl out of the 5 that i planned to meet that i actually met in person. She was a nice girl. Spent a bit of time with her but i could see she was not genunine.

Lie 5-Advertising-"AnastasiaDate.com does not focus on any particular racial group through its advertising" This is a blatant lie and it is Mr Sears who is misleading and inaccurate.

If one were to join the site one would notice the couple banner advertising contain only a one-race picture. If the site is "enjoyed" by other members of the globe then where are the "couple global pictures" of other members of other races who "enjoy" the site?

The answer reflects the contradiction of anastasiafate.com. This one-race picture is not the same seen on another international site Match.com but on this site the one-race picture is seen in dominant fashion in testimonies as well as its "couple advertising pictures" that reflect one race.

It is interesting on their africabeauties.com site (another sketchy site) they have articles there about interracial relationships but on this site there cannot even be "couple advertising" that reflects other races. They are a LIAR indeed!

Note: Here is a portion of the article from the site africabeauties.com

Title: "Interracial Marriage Energized by African Dating Innovation. AfricaBeauties..."

"This is the growing trend in America and the world over that of the interracial marriage. During this time US marriages between whites and blacks have more than doubled.

Today, an increasing number of Western men are looking to marry African women due to their honest values and incredible beauty."

So they can again post an article with interracial marriages (and even pictures on the front of the site) on this site but no "couple advertising" that focuses on other racial compositions on Anastasiadate.com.

They really are hypocrites aren't they because if they claim that there are "thousands' of "successes" (which are actually lies) from people as Roger Sears says that are "members from all over the world" who use the site then those "successes" would involve other races from other parts of the world won't it?

So where is at least some representation of this in terms of the "couple banner advertising" on the site in some measure (not a tiny measure mind you but in some measure)?

The answer is that there isn't. A clear indicator of the lies of the site and if it lies about this then it is also lying about other issues as well is the point that is seen here!

Very important to Note: The point about the whole issue is NOT the race issue here but their hypocrisy about this and other elements with them and that's the point about the whole matter!

Lie 6. Telephone Translation Service and IMBRA Act-It is very disappointing to hear lie after lie after lie with this man.

Firstly the IMBRA Act is an American Act and should not be enforced on those outside of America. This is well seen on internationalmarriagebroker.com where it says and I quote:

"IMBRA became law in March 2006".

"Its avowed purpose is to protect foreign women from American predators. Its practical effect is to make it difficult for American men to seek romance overseas,

And to put small American internet businesses that service the international dating niche out of business" Does not talk about NonAmericans does it?

So the site abuses the act by enforcing it on outsiders who are not USA citizens since it deals with American citizens!

Also as well they are only enforcing part of the Act. The site goes on to say and again I quote:

"IMBRA requires any for profit, dating service, which primarily facilitates international contacts between Americans and non-Americans, any so called "International Marriage Broker" to perform the following:

A. To conduct a background check at the National Sex Offenders Database, NSOPR.GOV on each American it serves.

B. To ask a list of mandated questions of each American about his marital and criminal background.

C. To request the American to provide court records, police reports, etc for any conviction or arrest, specified in the mandated questions list."

Does Anastasiadate.com do this?. The answer is NO it allows anyone on its site! However they highlight one part of the Act that applies to not allowing the passing of contact information between a foreign person and a USA citizen and then exploit it so that one has no other choice

But to call the lady over a telephone chat system that after 5 minutes the charges begin to add up greatly. It is interesting on another site one can actually book a call with a lady and its 15 minutes and not 5 minutes and its much less and its $6.75 and not $40.00 for five minutes

Where with AnastasiaDate.com even if you talk for three minutes you still get charged the full five minutes and that includes translation and cost of the international call.

Shame on you Mr. Sears for your lies! Also with this site one does not need a credit card to book a call but with Anastasiadate.com you need a credit card or else you cannot call.

This means it makes it very difficult for men who do not have a credit card but want to call a lady but have no way of doing so. Thus the site makes it difficult for some men! Shame on you but with the cheaper site I just mentioned one does need to use a credit card to book a phone call surprisingly!

They are also supposed to do this: as it continues to say from the site about the IMBRA!

F. To present to the foreign person, a pamphlet about Domestic Abuse written in her primary language.

Do they do this?. No! Therefore they are not complete in using this system and also their pricing demonstrates that this they are greedy after monetary gain if their prices cannot be cheaper and fair!

Here is more about the law from online-dating-rights.com

"The law requires a man to have a criminal background check, a sex offender check and an intrusive report about intimate details of his life prepared and given to a foreign woman stranger (scammer?)

BEFORE he can email or call her. This is the first time in US history criminal background checks have been required for two people to communicate."

Again does AnastasiaDate.com do any of this-NO! So it cannot really say it is following the IMBRA now does it. Another Lie exposed!

However this system is unfair: According to online-dating-rights.com the system "We believe that a new federal law called the International Marriage Broker Regulation Act (IMBRA) is unconstitutional, immoral,

And misandrist (man-hating). IMBRA criminalizes American men (and women) who meet foreign women (and men) via the internet"

In other words those who practice this system are making everyone out to be a criminal-thus their continual practice of this means that all American men on their site are made out to be criminals!

But I like what they say and this applies to Mr Sears of AnastsiaDate.com from the same site just mentioned

"Other justifications for the law are based on misleading, deceptive and dishonest use of statistics and on personal opinions disguised as fact such as phony claims"

It says justification for the law involve those who are misleading, deceptive, and dishonest-just like Anastasia.com is

Here what they go on to say!

"OUR believes that this law violates US Constitutional rights to freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, equal protection (Match.com is exempted from the law)"

Why is Match.com exempted? The answer is because it is an international site and not just an American one. Therefore if Mr Sears wants to claim that the site he is with is "international" then it is supposed to be exempted from the law as well because Mr Sears says and I quote:

"AnastasiaDAte.com is enjoyed by members from all over the world"-This makes it an international site and if that is the case then why is it practicing law that only deals with American based sites that are there to only (note the word only) introduce American men to foreign women?

It can therefore be seen that AnastasiaDate.com is abusing this law and using it only for one purpose: Financial Gain and Greed!

Lie 7 BBB: Sears says "We are no longer part of the BBB. The actual process of resolving complaints using BBB methodology does not make a great fit with a dating site"

If Mr. Sears is referring to the BBB or Better Business Bureau no wonder Anastasiadate.com would be against them and their methodology because it is what Anastasiadate.com refuses as a whole to practice and thus they would be against them and their standards of course because Anastasiadate. Com wants its own standards!

Here's what the BBB says

BBB Code of Business Practices (BBB Accreditation Standards)

The BBB Code of Business Practices represents sound advertising, selling and customer service practices that enhance customer trust and confidence in business. The Code is built on the BBB Standards for Trust, eight principles that summarize important elements of creating and maintaining trust in business.

This Code also represents standards for business accreditation by BBB. Businesses based in the United States and Canada that meet these standards and complete application procedures will be accredited by BBB.

To be accredited by BBB a business or organization affirms that it meets and will abide by the following standards:

1. Build Trust

Establish and maintain a positive track record in the marketplace.

2. Advertise Honestly

Adhere to established standards of advertising and selling.

3. Tell the Truth

Honestly represent products and services, including clear and adequate disclosures of all material terms.

I highlight three of these eight points but if you check Anastasia's track record and its hundreds of complaints against it one will see its track record fails miserably as well its honesty in advertising that is one sided and in its telling of the truth especially about Elena Matsuk!

Here is what one review site says about them: http://www.dating-services-review.net/reviews/AnastasiaDate.com.html

Here's what one review site says and I quote:

"Problems

The main problem with Anastasia's style of practice involves their "letters of introduction." Many people have reported being scammed due to this system.

The risk is that a woman will write an introduction letter intended for a very broad and simple type of man, then that letter will be sent to many different men in hopes of persuading them to
Respond.

If someone responds, AnastasiaDate.com makes money. If all of them respond, Anastasia Date makes even more money. Hence, the possibility of a scam."

"Conclusion... we highly recommend avoiding AnastasiaDate.com... their track record is hard to ignore"

Roger Sears, AnastasiaDate.com Operations Manager-I hope all your clients who see this should stop being your clients and any "potential" clients should not even want to join after seeing the LIES that have been exposed right here from your very own words!

P.S. Know why they want one to "please contact us directly via our Customer Service Page at
http://www.anastasiadate.com/pages/customersupport/newquestion.aspx?categoryID=18"

The answer so that your complaints will not spill out on the internet and expose them! But today AnastasiaDate.com-You are Again Exposed!

Also here is one final piece from scamvictimsunited.com from fool999 who says

"Hi,

I have a proof, that Anastasia Dating is a Scam. I have received an insider information of an emplyee. She told me that between 1000 and 2000 men are visiting every year

Odessa in Ukraine. Only 1 or two of these men marry the woman! It is all about creating an small income for the girls but much more for the site and a lot of associated people from translaters to restaurants. It is a scam industry.

I wonder if someone has already started legal steps.

Hope that this helps someone"

It does. Its time for legal action against you to end you all once and for all!

Additional Notes:

1. I would like to add that the it is correct in that having one's credit card information means that one can be charged more than what one is normally accustomed to at times! This is correct 100% here.

On the cheaper site mentioned above it is true one does NOT need a credit card
To book a call!

2. It is correct when he says that Match.com is international compared to other sites that are US based since they seek to bring just American men with foreign women together whereas Match.com com seeks to bring all men from all nationalities or other nations together with ladies of other nations.

Thus they are exempt. The claim of Anastasiadate, com to enforce the IMBRA is ludicrous if it says that there are others from other parts of the world who are male and they "come together" on the site.

And therefore it isn't introducing just only (note the word only) American men to foreign women which is why the IMBRA is there for such sites but men from other nations including American men to these women and thus since this is the case then it cannot and should not enforce the IMBRA because it is contradicting itself

Because the IMBRA is for American men being introduced to foreign women not Non American men being included in that list. The lies of anastasiafate.com exposed.

3. They say they have "quality ladies" oh really? Well here is one called Tatiana Evdina who can also be found on Youtube.com by using the Youtube.com search feature!

She can be found here at

http://www.romancescam.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=*******&f=17

And at

http://antiscam.org.ua/scammers/tatiana_1519.html

According to romancescam.com a gentleman who found her on another site called dreammarriage.com (another scamrelated site) found her on anastasiadate.com where they allowed her full access onto the site knowing who she was!

Please see:

http://www.romancescam.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=*******&start=30

Here are gentlemen who report her say on the site and I quote:

"I've written... to Anastasia, telling them who she is, but as yet, no response, which I don't think is unusual... Still no reply from Anastasiadate, of which I saw Tatiana in chat on yesterday... Tatiana Evdina ID ******* Anastasiadate.com. Scam continuous... Obviously, and we have seen this before with her, it is a case of the site protecting one of their top earners, even though Tatiana now uses Anastasia Date"

marriageagencyscams.com says and I quote from their own blacklist of scammers

"She is also on Anastasia ID *******."

"She is the REAL person.

First Name: Tatiana

Patronymic (Middle) Name: Viktorovna

Last Name: Evdina"

Anastasiadate.com Court Threats!

If Anastasiadate. Com was free from fraud (also known as anastasiaweb.com and anastasia-international.com) then why threaten to take to court the owner of a reputable antiscam site named Saul Hudson who exposed their activities. This is what he says from antiscam.net

"Of course we are aware of Anastasia.web and have been for many years. They have threatened us with legal action on a number of occasions but, since going to court would involve their business practices being exposed it is one area they really want to stay well away from"

So when they say they are free from fraud you know they are completely lying!

Here is the proof they did not want you to see!

  • YouTube

8/25/11

Youtube is the best especially if you need free training videos, remember old television shows, there are even full episodes of television shows on youtube. I like youtube because the search feature is okay but sometimes when one may want to upload videos one may not get the right music from their approved downloadable tunes to fit with one's uploaded video as I have tried. Plus some of the videos uploaded are just weird and strange e.g. the feeding videos! Good site still!

  • Prodege

8/23/11

I will have to agree that this site is not worth much. The site bombards you with ridiculous messages from members to join clubs that don't even make absolute sense to join in the first place! Plus the questions asked on the site come from brains that somehow did not find the word intelligence in the dictionary!

  • Damn Interesting

8/23/11

A collection of miscellaneous articles about "interesting" things that are gathered from various information places. There is opportunity to become a contributor on the site but one must ask the question about the site and that is if everything that is "interesting" that the site claims is really "interesting" is really all that important to everybody concerned! Still the site is useful in being funny so it still gets its credit for that!

  • ChatPM

8/23/11

Hotmail has been absolutely horrible with me. One day I decided to sign in with my normal password and email made at hotmail and could not sign. I tried again and again. Contacting technical help for this site is terribly complicated and I have received no word from them about the restoration of my original account and my ability to access it. Hotmail really has downgraded itself from being that trustworthy site we all had originally come to know!

  • Freeonlinedictionary

Wonderful site for research of the meanings of words. The fact that it is free makes it a good tool. In addition it has a whole lot of other categories to check out like research papers section, language software, special dictionary section, home school section, encyclopedia section, school software section, vocabulary section, math section, translation section, language schools section, etc. There is even a self publishing section as well as learning games section. If you need help in school it seems this is the place to be. Excellent site!

Here are three stories I managed to find about this site and the so-called "miracle e-book" that it claims to promote written by Elena Petrova also known as Elena Solomon and Elena Gold. She claims that if you follow these 12 rules you will have happiness forever for life! Oh Really? Let's see what others have to say about it then!

A. False Money Back Guarantee according to some (Mary, Los Angeles California United States of America, ripoffreport.com)

Money Back Guarantee? Think again!

You'll never get your money back! Not only did I not get my refund, Elena Solomon did not even bother to respond to any of my messages!

Will you want the refund? Absolutely. There is no doubt in my mind. How do I know? I READ THE "BOOK"!

Here is what you'll get for $49.95: about 65 pages of gibberish. Most of it feels like the author googled the word "attraction" and stuffed everything she could find into her book.

This is definitely not a "how-to" manual, it is more like a listing of qualities that attractive people possess. Again, this information is available all over the net for FREE. For $49.95, you can get 2 or ever 3 solid 200+ page publications in your local bookstore.

I am very disappointed by the book and by the false "Money Back Guarantee" promise.

Note: I post this first one because it is written by a woman just like the author is so that one cannot say it is the bias of a man but it comes from the sound experience of a lady! Here is another one!

B. Violating Agreement Terms-False Double Your Money Back Guarantee(Nathan, Catlett Virginia, United States Of America, ripoffreport.com)

As of February 2006, 12 Simple Rules was offering a "super-guarantee" on their ebook, 12 Simple Rules for Success in Love, Life and Online Dating. The terms stated on their website were:

"And here is my super-guarantee to you: after reading 12 Simple Rules and actively using them for only one year, you will reach most of the things on your list - and EXCEED your expectations on many of them - or I will give you DOUBLE the money that you have paid for this ebook.

"Yes, you've understood it correctly: if after one year from your purchase you check your list (and you've been actively using the 12 Simple Rules in your life for this whole year) and you have NOT reached MOST of your goals and have NOT exceeded your expectations on MANY of them, simply write to me with the copy of your receipt and I will refund you DOUBLE PRICE of what you have paid."

(This language has since been removed from the site, but I saved a copy of it.)

I purchased the ebook on February 2,2006, for $49.95, while that language offering the super-guarantee was still on their website. On February 16,2007, I requested a $99.90 refund from 12 Simple Rules via their website. They responded, "Hello Nathan, We received the reply from the Clickbank. They are unable to issue the refund, as your order is more than twelve weeks old. This order is currently 391 days old. Please let us know if there is anything else we can help you with. Best regards, Elena Help Desk"

The whole point of the super-guarantee was that I had to wait a full year before claiming it. So, it's a catch-22 to deny it due to the order being more than twelve weeks old. 12 Simple Rules is violating the terms of the agreement.

C. Other Issues (also from the-ripoffreport.com)

This e-book and website violates ethics as well as the common sense of all!

Elena Petrova says her results are repeatable-Oh really? If her results are repeatable then tell me how can they be repeatable for a nonwhite man on her site who sees a majority of the profiles on her site marked with one ethnicity on them?

You see her site many times over portrays one ethnicity as a "role model" for happiness with its profiles and majority of testimonials one ethnic, no mixed ethnic articles and no advertisements of other races.

If then that is the case then the "results" that Elena Petrova says are "repeatable" are only to be repeated for her one-ethnic target audience most of the time!

Thus these repeatable results which are a majority of the times focused on a one-ethnic target audience are discriminating other audiences which may be nonethnic by putting them in a minor class or bracket when it comes to having such "repeatable results."

We see this in the example of "testimonials" on the 12 simple rules site that promotes the e-book which can be deduced to be one-ethnic in nature in a majority of the cases.

This proves that the "results" of this e-book are meant in a major way to be "one-ethnic" based just based on testimonial evidence alone on the 12 simple rules site!

The book also makes stupid claims that Elena Petrova using her 12 rules can make any man fall in love with her between the ages of 18-60 in a minute.

However this does not make sense since she is "married" and last time I checked married women are not supposed to go around making other men fall in love with them anyway!

Also she borrows other ideas from other books and tries to resell and repackage them as she claims on the website by calling them "patterns" that she got after reading many books for this e-book that she wrote.

The problem with this is that she is trying to sell this book as if it is the "miracle cure" the world has been waiting for. However it has a 60-day working effect.

In other words if after 60 days you are dissatisfied you can return it because I guess on day 61 the "miracle cure" stops being the "miracle" you were looking for after all

All who support this book and its imbalances are those who need a crutch in life because they are imbalanced themselves just like this e-book!

Conclusion: I guess 12simplerules.com seems more like rules for those who are simply not sound in their senses and therefore senseless to try it!

Excellent site except their list of synonyms isn't all that complete I have found

I have found them though to be pretty useful when I needed their help in getting to know more related words that are related to the word that I am looking up!

They are generally okay and useful when one needs of course to find a synonym!

They are still interesting

Absolutely horrible site just like anastasiadate.com-I deleted letters from my inbox one time and put them in my deleted folder because the letters were getting a bit too overwhelming. I put these letters there on a temporary basis alone intending to check them out later and did NOT erase these letters-they were only just moved to this folder from my inbox

When I went back the following day and I check the deleted folder I find out that these letters are completely erased!

So I talk to the customer service and they ask me if I know the ID numbers for the letters I did not save any ID numbers? How in the world was I supposed to know that they would get deleted in the first place?

I tell the customer service to never, ever, ever in their life touch my letters in that deleted folder ever again!

See how horrible this site is! They end up doing things without your expression permission and for my money they don't deserve any stars-zero stars is the best rating to give anastasiadate.com and its affiliate amolatina.com!

This organization is just a disgrace and totally without any shame!

It is an okay site for reviewing a lot of different site including dating websites such as UK dating websites, adult ones, mail order ones also, and of course BBW websites devoted to big beautiful women etc. It also reviews genealogy websites as well as site that deal with weight loss and web hosting!

However what gets to me is that the editor does not get all correct in assessing certain sites because some troublesome sites have gotten high marks and that should not be in my opinion.

The advantage of the site is that you can post comments on the site and do your own reviews that must be accepted by a moderator who has to check them out first!

But still because of what I have said already it still deserves a good rating!

I love this site. It is the best there is out there and one can have creative freedom of expression.

It is a good site for explaining the good on sites and exposing the bad found on them!

I honestly had to jump in and make my contribution to this review about this site that is also called a foreign affair. I was another site and was talking to a lady named Elena five feet five inches who says she is a teacher on the site I was on but then I came across the same girl who was on the same site and now was five feet seven inches and now her profile their says she is an administrator. It means then that the site is buying profiles from other sites then changing the contents on the profiles-which is so wrong because you could be writing to the translator writing you back than the actual lady herself and waste your time and your money!

Also don't trust that "engaged/married" list they have on the site because if you do a search of the site you will see more deleted profiles than these "engaged/married" ones.

They are put there by the administration to make one think that there are ladies who have gotten "hooked up" so as to give one the impression and fool people into thinking that the site is extremely popular. Plus some of these profiles have been there for years under this category when the lady herself may not have actually "hooked up" or may have even gotten a divorce or there was a cancelling in the engagement. All these factors can come into play!

Also don't trust their antiscam policy where they blacklist certain people-It's just for "show and tell." There have probably been more scammers on the site than the owner is willing to admit! Also as well the purpose of why they want to get you to write is because they want you to go on their tours and of course they make money off you from their tours and on their tours you meet ladies that are not the same found on the pictures-misleading advertising! Whoever wants to put this site on a gold list needs to definitely change their mind! Plus who said women in one's own country aren't as good as the foreign ones?

Note: People can be paid to give this site a good review!

This site isn't all that bad! People who use this site have noticed their grades going up and being able to finish their assignments on time. The site has been known to work according to your convenience, help with difficult problems by providing step by step guidance e.g. for Math, helping in class presentations, assignments and deadlines, etc. The problems people get with the site all has to do with the requirements that they specify to the tutor on the site. There is so much positive about this site that I have seen in other places from helping people with statistics, industrial engineering, physics, chemistry, accounting, etc that in my book this site is worth getting a good rating but I am sorry for those who have had bad experiences on the site!

This site is the best. I have tried using Internet Explorer and it was very slow to access the internet plus it did not have the power to open up other sites that I might Google. With this site-Its like WOW all over. This site does it all! Internet Explorer can't compete!

It's as if Internet Explorer and Mozilla were in a wrestling match-Mozilla would pin Internet Explorer (IE) down on the mat for the three count each and every time!

Stay Away From This Site: I hope everyone is reading this warning and hearing me loud and clear when I say-DON'T trust this site! This site is known for operating as a scam and has been also blacklisted on another site called marriage agency scams warning everyone to stay away. What makes them a scam is that if you do not in three months answer any letters they remove it from your inbox which they then use again with some other guy who joins the site. In other words they take letters from one person's inbox and use them again in another person's letter inbox. Sometimes they blast you with hundreds upon hundreds of letters in just about a few weeks to make you think you are SO popular and you will start paying money or opening many letters while their pockets get nice and fat from you just spending money on opening and writing or sending letters to ladies who may not be the ones actually writing their own mail my friend. They got all these letters again I say from other inboxes from other guys that they are using all over again. Plus they have been known to buy profiles from other sites! Plus they have been known to have scammers on the site and their antiscam policy really is just meant for them to appear as if they are actually doing something about scammers! Which they aren't!

Stay Away!. Stay Away! I Trust the American Army-God Bless "Em but this Army I definitely don't trust because I know about them too well to NEVER, EVER, trust them!

This site is really and truly full of trouble and when you expose them their representative try to defend their reputation when in truth and in fact they got totally exposed. I have seen them do this on other sites that inform consumers. I mean how many times does one have to hear the word scam before one believes it actually is one!

  • PerfectMatch

8/8/11

This site does not deliver always as promised. Sure you can find people because on virtually any site you can. However its the kind of people you find there that really makes that person a "perfect match." I prefer a screening process of questions to help me see if a person really is a perfect match. If they fail the test they probably weren't all that perfect for me any way! Perfect match isn't all that perfect!

  • Dell

8/8/11

Dell is an okay company for computers. They are trusted and well known and they are respected in the computer industry especially for their notebooks. I like Dell notebooks because I wonder where would I be without one. Those who complain about Dell should go back to the days of those old dinosaurs desktops when there weren't any laptops and then they will see if the upgrade to a laptop/notebook was really worth it!

  • Buy Dating Profiles

8/8/11

If this site is doing what I think its doing then that isn't at all cool. It means you will be paying money for someone that is no longer there any more and you can use what they are selling to scam others out of their bucks by setting up your own site with a lot of fakes. Fake profiles are for fake people a. K. a. Scammers!
