Scams
If a member asks for money should I send it?
Absolutely not! If a member asks for money, in any amount, this is a clear indication that it is a scam. Please forward us the nickname of this member immediately.
Is there a Russian scam list somewhere?
Yes, we have found a great list maintained by Russian Brides Cyber Guide Blacklist. This is a list of disreputable/fraud agencies introducing Russian women for marriage.
Tactics using by scam artists from Russia (Ukraine, Belarus, FSU). Names and photos of reported scammers. Click here for their summary list.
I received a message from Nigeria asking for money.
This scam is probably the most popular (or unpopular) circulating the Net today. It is indeed a scam. To find out more please go here - Wikipedia - Advance fee fraud.
As with all messages of this nature, please forward the members nickname to us.
Should I give out my email address?
Absolutely not! In addition to being against our Terms it also opens you up to receive spam and junk mail. The unfortunate reality is that there are people out there that trawl for email addresses for this purpose.
What else can I do?
Ask specific questions and expect specific answers. Scammers often use prepared responses. |
