The ink had barely dried on this post before encountering another scammer on this site. A simple Google Image Search (which I highly recommend) revealed that they are using pics from a porn model/actress. The pics that they used showed the model fully clothed. Sadly the scammers have infiltrated a lot of these dating sites. It's hard to comprehend how a person can have absolutely no conscience.

There are a couple sites out there that do that very thing. Plus the scammers come and go very quickly because they know that their account will eventually be flagged. But I'm sure they're right back with a new account and photo.

You have to be diligent with everyone you meet online to verify that they are who they say they are. I have been doing that for a good while now and am often met with the person saying that they're offended and that I don't trust them. In my experience, that response almost guarantees that they are a scammer.

On the bright side, recently every time I report a scammer, their profile is deleted within 15 minutes. If the scammer accounts are really home grown, then they have a very good reason to make them disappear as fast as possible once discovered.

Probably, but it is also possible that they just look at the IP logs of the reported person and check them against past violators. A very simple and quick task. A reasonably well run website would handle all reports accordingly. But then we are discussing AFF. The last two weeks I've several notices of a single account hotlisting me 5 or 6 times in a day. No reason that I can see why someone would hotlist me and then remove me from their hotlist, wash, repeat, over and over again in a single day. I asked two such account holders and they denied having any idea what I was talking about. We just have to keep a very large shaker of salt handy when we encounter any activity here.

Can't say regarding guys, but the female scammers get offended by anything that even hints at suspicion or doubt. Most scammers ask to get off Chinese FriendFinder and move to another communications app or website. If they insist on a pay service when there are so many free ones available, that's a slamdunk guarantee they are a fraud. I've never had the experience of getting far enough for the scammers to ask me to send them cash for a ticket or whatever else they use as a reason. Probably, being a psychologist is useful when it comes to the first stages of communication and determining motives.

LOL! Overnight I received email notifications that I had messages from three members. This morning I went to my message box to read them and all had already been deactivated. Obviously scammer who were reported by someone else before I got there.

I always give my email address right away as I know many non-subscribers can't get to my messages easily. Once on email I try to get them to wechat where I can confirm if they are real or not quite easily by asking for a video chat. The services at Chinese FriendFinder are too poorly programmed and slow to bother with for regular communications. It is easy enough to block an address or content with email or wechat if the communication does not go well.

Yes, so as soon as you determine they are scammers or just aren't worth your while, you can just add them to your blacklist and forget them. There is no way you can avoid 100% of scammers unless you delete your account entirely and never go back online.

I met a woman on this site in 2010 and moved to China and married her on year later. We were together for 7 years. Now I'm back. I have met one here this time around online and in person, but not the right connection. I have plans with another to meet soon. But the scammers are really a pain in the ........
