Scam Guys

Honestly wanted to just say that I’ve use this app twice once in 2020 and one in 2022 to 2023. I think the first thing I want to say is that I wish that I fully reviewed what is this website is legit or not. Yes, there are members that tend to upload videos into all the special things that you’re not able to do… I think it’s because these are employees that actually work for the site. There are real people on the site… But if they’re members… Stay away from them! I feel like they’re just there to entice you and I get paid every time you spend credit talking to them. I thought I connected with somebody twice that was legit. But eventually we started talking on the email after much reluctance and resistance was given. And then eventually, he wanted me to start going back and talking to him on the website… Which I thought was odd…. The site is expensive! Well… He hasn’t sent me an email in a couple of days and I was curious… Where should I find it? On the website talking to whoever else that was willing to entertain them then. People get paid to pretend to like you… I’m pretty sure that’s the case for this app as well! Be. Very. Careful.

Hello and thank you for your feedback. According to the policies of our app it is strictly forbidden for anybody else to write on behalf of the members or upload photos of other people on their profiles. It's also strongly prohibited to be compensated for using the platform. If we find any violation of these rules we will ban the member and refund you the credits.

Not only expensive, but 90% of the accounts either aren’t real or aren’t really single

This app is too expensive. After reaching out to numerous people and voicing how difficult it is to keep using the app with the pay as you go set up, I was told that there would not only be changes, but possibly more free options moving forward once you purchase a subscription. But after re-downloading the app, the pay as you go set up that I and other customers complained about is still there! You still have to keep paying money for credits to talk with the other verified members, and although they’re offering more credits for a bit less, it’s still set up to make customers dish out more money. Number two, there are way too many fake profiles! Alot of the pictures and videos uploaded on these profiles are from Instagram and Tiktok accounts, and unless you are familiar with who the person is, you could potentially be lead a stray. Now some of the verified accounts are real, but the girls after finding their Instagram accounts, are already in relationships with other guys and have been for a while. They however use the site to earn another source of income, and see how many people they can convince to give them virtual gifts that they can convert into money. I won’t be using this site as often as I have been.

LIES! Scammy Vibes

If I could give it no stars (or negative stars) I would, but I can’t so they get the one star. I joined after seeing an ad on TikTok. At first it seems legit. Enough for me to sub for $9.99 for the month which is low for a monthly compared to the other apps. This is where things got weird. I got a good number of chats started. Once I replied to some, they never replied. Members can be verified via email which was kind of strange that it’s not in app. Then there’s “Popular Members,” these members are outside of the norm. You need a lot of coins to talk to them. No matter if they start the conversation. Coins aren’t cheap. One chat got really odd like parts of the chat was missing. Or the person was lying. They have in app chat with members, email with members. You can’t open emails of popular members without coins either. I think the hot members are part of the con to get you to buy coins. I also flagged a few profiles for being fake—the pictures were of not so famous actors. Weirdly a lot of the spam accounts are verified, which means this app is a scam too. Maybe if you try message any real person the app doesn’t even share it to them. They just bombard you with popular members messages trying to get you to pay more money. I do not recommend wasting your time and money on this app.

Pros and cons

I usually don’t do feedbacks, but I’ll definitely point out some pros and cons. I do like this app because it is safe in most standards, and it does have good features to use. The downfall is that it is way to high for purchase of tokens, and most sources provide subscription rate every month. This is not good if this site draws people to use this as a cost of token every single day. Also, this source of app is useful when it comes to preventing fake people because you can hide your profile from someone you don’t trust. This dating source really needs more improvement when it comes to cost of service and features because it doesn’t benefit every customers who use this if people are only here to find a partner who they can trust and not just the play around with. All other sources that are free are not worth it. My advice is to offer better service to improve this app and website without spending too much money on all features.

Thanks

OK so here’s my review. First I want to say that usually I don’t enjoy online dating. Few times I tried I soon got bored and didn’t like it. I tried match and tinder and also pof. Never got on with anyone of them and even lost interest completely. I generally like being single and don’t like the hassle. So anyways I decided to the app as I heard about it having streaming which is a bit different. I have to say this app is pretty basic and doesn’t have the streaming. That's on the website. But anyways Ive been using the app for a few weeks and the best thing about it is all the members around the world. I’m not bothered about meeting anyone and prefer just to chat. That's the reason its good because there isn't any pressure. You can just meet someone miles away and then talk to them and you don’t have to stay in touch. So it really does seems better for me. That's the reason I think its ok otherwise id say its like all the other dating apps that I don't like

Review from Northern West Virginia

I realize that the participant fills out their own profile BUT, when they type in that they are from “small town” but fail to say what state that small town is in, I might as well look for someone who will be forthcoming. Somebody just typed that he is from Arlington, USA. Well I grew up in Arlington, Virginia and I know people who live in Arlington, Texas. So only saying the name of the town means nothing without including the State in the USA.
Another example, I now live in the northern panhandle of West Va. which is a half mile from the border of Pennsylvania and five miles from the Ohio River so when you cross the river. You are then in Ohio. Now, Ohio has a town called Toronto but if you don’t say Ohio, you might think I mean Ontario in Canada. So. Please, specify to add the state after the city where you live. I have been trying to meet people who live near where I live. I have yet to meet one person who lives near me. So, I am thinking of leaving town, and leaving the state. Sorry. I came here married and he died in 2021 from uncontrolled Diabetes. I think I would be better off just going back to Arlington, Virginia.

Am fake profiles and a global scam

A couple of us setup some profiles to test this site out. It's a total scam. Yjey are brilliant scammers. The theso called credits is great business model to distract from the "dollar" values. All the profiles are fake. Cardullwy pay attention to the patitos. Yheee is NO continuity. The scammers are silting around f in shifts - and as soon as we came o line you hate a barage of messages from all the "fake" profiles. They charge more you
for photos and videos. The angle is "to get to know you" forever. Then they send photos and videos and emails. These have higher pricing / cost than a text message. The idea is to keep chatting for ever. They have this gift giving scam so that you can send a gift and apparently send your contact y information. That is another scam - it takes 10 days - they take your money and. Otho g happens. Be very careful. I am not sure why Apple does not take this app down. With all the evidence we have from messages emails photos etc. we are put together a report to submit to the FBI through our lawyers. Please don't strayed scam. get caught it's actually a well designed and orchestrated scam.

Love does cost

After bring on this app, I realized that 95 percent of the individuals on this platform are not really “looking for love.” Everyone on here seems to be gaslighting and does not genuinely have any interest in building any form of a relationship. Most of the questions are almost so elaborate and similar that you have yo believe they are using the same document and many have the same story-line. Clearly these individuals are receiving some form of compensation to lead people on and reel them into having long drawn out pointless conversations to manipulate you into purchasing more credits. This is how the site makes its money. Most dating apps will have you pay for the subscription in hopes you find friendship or a relationship. This app charges a low subscription fee and then has their “employees” bait you into spending more and more. You’ll end up spending $100 just to have a somewhat decent conversation. Basically, I would like to be hired here. Seems like a perfect job… all you have to be is attractive and manipulate someone to keep purchasing credits to have a conversation with you.

I sent email and selected the delete account feature and they never deleted it I hit got tech support live no one ever answered you pay for everything I mean everything to text if use a emoji in your text you pay for it emails cost you you pay higher for emails whether you reply or not if you open it you pay none of this is told when you sign up also your charge per month for certain coin packages By the way the packages range from various prices This site is ran by hackers they have no empathy and my account has not been deleted I can’t believe the App Store approved this being that apple is not an open marketplace for apps that’s one of their key selling points when you purchase an iPhone this app is tarnishing apples image. Heed my warning.!!!!

It’s a fraud and scam ! Be careful people!

It’s not legit website or App ! The profiles are FAKE! I recognized and Identified models that I know personally who are not on this app ! The administration steals pictures of god looking people from their Instagram and Facebook and post it here they even put hem in different locations away from their home countries! They play you all along with the texting back and forth so that you keep paying money to be able to reply! They have their employees behind the screens answering your texts and telling you sweet words to hook you up and lure you to pay more and more ! What a dirty trick ! Don’t buy credits just to answer messages ! It’s a fraud! Pay attention to the replies that you get , you will notice that it doesn’t make sense what they say ! Specially that all the ones who texts you lives abroad! I a different country and you can’t meet them in person ! They just want you to keep in texting and developing a fake online relationship so you can spend and spend on credits !!!! How Evil !!
