Ok, I've heard of all the others and have never had any random requests on them. I have had a few on skype though.

I know this has been asked before, and I know my mum was almost caught out (she is 85 though), but do people seriously still fall for these scams? Barring Americans that is laugh

Good thing though is that it allows to see who is a scammer, quite fast? Can just wave bye to anyone asking such stuff, and focus on those who don't thumbs up

Must say though I got no idea about any of those 'apps' or what not. Don't even use Skype, but then again, I am not into dating, so no clue what the methods of the scene are dunno

I believe kik is just another form of chat/messenger with the key difference being you do not have to share your phone number.

There are two ways of looking at it, why do they want to withhold their number, is it for negative reasons or are they being cautious. dunno

I find a lot of men want to exchange numbers really quickly to chat, as they say it is easier by phone. I'm not so quick to exchange numbers.
I guess its a personal choice.
They usually loss interest pretty quickly then laugh

I guess I still prefer the old coffee thing first.coffee wine
