BeFriend - Make new friends 17+

I spend time and money for a company that finds, seeks, reports and shuts down foreign apps with the sole purpose of scamming young American males for any and all reasons! This is one of those apps, no one is real, you may accidentally come across another person who thought this was a real app for its intended purpose but this is in fact another app who’s sole purpose is to scam you out of you’re money! All the females say the exact same thing and require you to contact them from another app and for the love of god don’t do it because they will steal you’re identity and take hundreds before you know what happened! Working in this field for the last 16 years there is no legitimate dating app I have found and I have investigated thousands! Untold billions of dollars are just stolen! I’m breaking protocol but this is ridiculous! This one is the worst, please take this warning and do not give these apps anymore money! At least 90 percent are all Chinese hackers!

I do love this app, it’s great for finding friends etc and I love the layout. But we have a severe problem. We need something that would keep certain people off this app. Like homophobes, racists, transphobes, etc. Something like a personality test. I have experienced every day, someone has harassed me over my gender expression, and/or sexuality. Sometimes I would even find people who degrade women as a whole. I also get super sexual messages when I did not ask for them. Most people do not care when I say no. I know this happens to many others, as I have talked to a few who have experienced the same things. To keep the app safer for teens who don’t have a home In where they can come out/live the way they feel (referring to gender or sexuality) we really need to do something about it. I know I can always block them, and I do, but it gets beyond upsetting to constantly get messages like this. Every single day I get them. No matter what I write, or say, or anything. Please PLEASE consider something to help this situation. It would be greatly appreciated and it would keep teens safer.

So I normally don’t write reviews but I felt compelled to do so here. First of all, the app itself is probably the best of its kind in terms of functionality, ease of use, and quality of members. Their are still the mix of fakes and scammers but not near as much as you will find on others.

Beyond that, I ran into an issue with my status as a paid member constantly being dropped and making me restore purchase to fix it. After a day or so of this I emailed the customer support. Within a few hours I had three replies to my email, each one asking a few questions which they were able to figure out without my replies (I was sleeping). The last email stated that they found the problem and it was something on their end. Problem was fixed and they credited me with so extra stuff.

Definitely recommend above other apps of this kind. 👍🏼
