Anti-scam Campaign
Scams in the internet dating world are rampant. There is no dating site free of scammers.
Regardless if you are new to the internet dating world or a veteran, you should always read
up on scams and the new techniques to part you and your money. The majority of these scams
are out of Russia and Ukraine, with some out of the former Soviet Union (FSU) countries.
Nigeria, Ghana and the Philippines have recently jumped on the bandwagon. Avoiding these
scams is very easy…
Never send a man or a woman any money!
It is just not a good idea to send a stranger who you have never met, especially in another country, money period.
Regardless what he/she needs it for, a visa and passport to come and see you, an operation
for a loved one, a new computer, internet fees or he/she’s in Moscow on their way to see you
and there’s a hidden fee that they need help paying or else they’ll be stranded at the Moscow
airport for the rest of their life.
Red flags leading up to the money request should also be taken into consideration…
- If he/she loves you after 3 weeks or 3 letters. (Or without ever meeting.)
- Huge, romantic letters talking about nothing.
- He/she doesn’t answer your questions.
- A new sexy photo with every letter.
- He/she refers to their friends that married foreigners and now he/she wants it, too.
- His/her relative or friend can get a visa for him/her. (Fine, let them pay.)
- If you get a letter from an agency after a few letters from the man or woman asking for money.
- You should be wary of any agency using our service to advertise their men or women.
- Girls look for guys 10-15 years older than themselves, not 30.
