I ask this because I notice a disturbing number of fake profiles on here that I report and the administrators don't seem to do anything. If you go to images.yandex.com or any search engine (Yandex seems to be the best at this) and first save the image in question then upload it to the search engine by clicking the camera icon and it will tell you where else its been posted online. You'll find so many nice looking women on here have different names and live in different countries if you search showing its a scam. African women often are hair models for some reason. White women are often Ukranian scams.

The first rule on this site should be to absolutely never discuss money at any time. That'll get rid of the scammers in a hurry! Also, try to move to voice communication (through Skype, Google Hangouts, Apple's Facetime, Facebook or others.) You'll see if they are female (that's a start!) and how well they communicate in English or whatever language you want to speak. Then after that is video because then you can see its really the person in the picture on the profile. If you get endless excuses you know its a scam. Who doesn't have a camera on even the cheapest phone now?

Why are scammers so prevalent? Because they can make many times their typical working wage in a fraction of the time and they don't even have to leave their home. Its ideal for single mothers with young children and a lot of these countries have a lot of young, single mothers swimming in extreme poverty.

What these sites are good for is initially meeting women who you will hopefully see on your next trip there. Basically you're screening them as best you can for the eventual meetup. And when you meet insist on seeing their home but do it all of a sudden so they can't prep it beforehand. You want to see how they naturally live.

My experience has been very different ... when I spot scammers I mail a report outlining my concerns to Admin and I'd say 98% have been removed.

The other 2% of the time I've asked 'would you take a look and see what you think ...

But you just have to face it, scamming passed the trillion dollar US level some years ago - CS is one of the better managed / more responsive !

All you can do is 'what you can do' ... be familiar with the advice on the site, never send money, never send money and never send money!

Did I stress that enough ... about not sending money?

peace

Sounds like you travel non-stop around the planet in order to check out how people live. Will we get some summary on the subject any time soon?

You may find your scammer activity reduced by removing your profile income as $75,000 -$100,000.
Just sayin' drinking
