Does anyone know if this website is legit? It's a dating site to find a Russian bride and I'm a paid member, have received a lot of emails from Russian women, and the emails don't seem to be "weird" or "strange" like a lot of the ones I receive from other dating services, mainly free ones. Most of these girls on here seem sincere enough, but I just wanna make sure in case if I did hook up with somone from there.

I heard some good things about them. I cannot bet that all girls there are real, but I personally know one guy who found a wife there. BTW, she was from Cheboksary. A REAL girl from Cheboksary, not a fat Yuri from Yoshkar Ola pretending to be from Cheboksary ;)

Most of the girls there seem to be real enough. Some odd ones, but they do not give me an email address right away like I've received on other sites. So, I think it may be authentic.

Well boys and girls
This are mail forwarding agency receivers. They actually do not have their own girls, but instead they receive profiles from other agencies who are scamming agenies. I caught one scamming agency Rusprincess with a Gold digger . I wrote her a letter and then phone her via fiance.com. While on the phone she replied to me, which was impossible to do.
I reported this to fiance.com and it took me 10 days to get a resolution. So they removed the girl and stated that they fined the agency. But the agency was not fined. I had spies in this town.
Now they are getting profiles that are reissued in a regular time. So that is suspicious to me. So I have warned them that if I catch a scammer, I am going directly to paypal, visa, and mastercard if the forwarding agency is not punished or removed.
I think if we start complaining to the source of the funds like credit card companies, these agencies will start to cease to exist. It is harder and harder for them to get support for credit cards.

Thoughts?

I will go easy on them when I say that 95% of the girls in this site are agencies scammers.

The new scamming era
Scams have taken new styles now and became more organized and it is being done through agencies now to give it more legal and trustworthy view to attract some naive customers. You may wonder how they work? And what are the benefits they get from you?
Well… if you are new here then here is a short history for you to be aware of what you might face from the old generation of scammers.
Accidents or sudden illness of some relative that requires lots of money.
Loan that are due to or facing jail sentence.
Or even silly stuff like two fighting in a bar and the employer decided to sue her if she did not pay for the damages.
She needs $500 or more to get her international passport or to get the visa to come to you.
She already got the visa and she now want to buy the tickets to come to you (remember that you can always buy a tickets that you only can refund, ask her to send her international Passport and visa copies to you).
All the above and many other examples can happen when you are corresponding with independent girls directly. These kind of scammers will usually use some faked pictures and Identity (some are so stupid and use some models or famous stars’ pictures like Anna Kournikova!) ask her for example to send you a picture with her mom or father in their house to find if she is what real. Most of the scammers will try avoid these old tricks as it gets them into the black list or ever bigger problems like jail sentences.
So how the scammers work these days?
Scamming is organized into agencies now. You will be amazed to know that many of these girls’ monthly incomes does not exceed half the price of the perfume bottle or chocolate box you buy from these agencies.
In Fiance.com you will find that the majority of the girls are actually working with this agency and other to catch as much customers as possible. Most of them will refuse to communicate with you directly and will only do it through their agencies so you will pay for the calls and translation. Few will accept communicating with you directly and tell you how they are waiting impatiently for the meeting but when the real meeting comes and you tell them that you will be handling your own trip, booking your own accommodation and you will visit her in her own city with your own translator, when you tell her all this you will find for real that she is scammer. She when you are in her city she will try to either escape from the meeting by silly excuses (so you will not expose her as scammer in the internet) or she will try to convince you that she can only meet you through the agency. Some will try to squeeze your wallet as much as possible by asking to meet you in different city where she has to travel with her agency interpreter and she will not stay with you in one apartment so you have to book separate rooms for them. Some will ask you to contact their agencies so they can organize all your trip from A to Z …accommodation, transportation, translation…etc. both the agency and the scammers work with them will benefit from what you spend. The scammers will be waiting for your lovely gifts and will get percentage of the money you spend in their agencies.
It’s the new era of scamming my friends…be smart and don’t fall in it. Say it from the beginning that you will only meet them independently in their town, request their personal phone number, do not agree on agency offers to organize your meeting (you can find other interpreters by your own) if you did this you will filter out all scammers away.
Be smart, wise, think twice before you sleep with one of them and remember that the easy ones are most probably infected with HIV, so don’t risk your life for few minutes of pleasure and choose the decent one if you aim for marriage… don’t let the beauty alone blinds you as you cannot later change a hooker to a housewife.

I joined up out of idea of the free/basic membership for this site - but I obviously need to pay to read the messages i've recieved. In the 2 week span or so since joining this site, got 5 messages, 2 seem fishy (one is 42 years old and i'm much younger).

Either way I'm considering doing their "1-week trial offer" for $9.99.... not sure on how I feel using my CC though. Anybody here use their CC on this site?Any problems?

I talk with a couple of girls from there.
They gave me a private email address and showed me their social site page.
I know that doesn't mean much so I don't know really.

Its weird though, some will send me an introduction letter. When I tell then no thanks Im not interested they reply with a not interested letter back as if I contacted them first. And some will send a nasty letter back saying I am lying and so forth. Not sure whats up with that deal.

I done some research on it but as usual it is all punters opinions.
So I am just asking if anyone has had any success on it.
