Anybody had a real look around? And I am not talking about just this place.

Scammers seem to be all over the place. Mostly from Nigeria or Ghana but even get the odd English one. I love the ones where they say they live in (example) London/Glasgow. Yeah!!! Like England has shrunk and now London is in Glasgow. help Or the ones that start as living in London, then they have Paris/France, then they have Houston/USA and all of a sudden they are in Leeds. Hold on a minute!!!!!! You have Leeds and Snaresbrook. Snaresbrook is on the outskirts of London!! doh doh

Oh well. Guess rant over. What are your comments?

some are scammers and some are catfishing.....

anyone, anywhere can hid behind their computer keyboard - it is a shame, especially to end up a victim.


For someone, like myself genuinely looking for a relationship in Scotland, the CS site is a challenge. Realistically, I can only chat here until I travel there on my next vacation.

JeanKimberley: For someone, like myself genuinely looking for a relationship in Scotland
In the first instance, I wish you good luck. I live in the border with Scotland and Scotland is a nice place (well, the majority of it anyway though there are some places have to avoid).

Have you ever considered what it is like being in a long distance relationship??

It is not easy. I have been in a long distance relationship with a Ukranian girl (though got to say, the flight prices are pretty reasonable to get there and back). I have been in a relationship with a Russian girl (the rules and conditions the police have there are nuts!!! Need a visa. Need to register with the police where you are staying. Need to carry your passport wherever you go etc etc). Was starting a relationship with a girl from the Philippines but when I saw the price of air tickets, I realised I can maybe only see her two or three times a year.

Again wish you the best in your search.

take your time getting to know someone....if they have pics up and chatting on forums over time they probably are genuine....use discretion and good judgement, does the way they talk sound like how someone from that area would talk?dont rush things, if u really like someone overtime ring them on the phone, first meeting in public place etc....be careful, be wary, hangout in forums and in time u just might meet someone good for you, relationships r always a work in progress, communicate communicate communicate, good luck in ur search
