Before Charles the admin deletes my comments on this topic again, I did suggest that this site has responsibility and owes it to their members to keep this site scammer free. This is a huge issue on this site and the complaints about scammers have escalated. Isn't it about time that Mingle adopt a no tolerance policy towards scammers? I have reported so many scammers recently and they just keep coming anyway. It's a disgrace. Here is another suggestion which I made previously: follow the example of other dating sites and ban the IP addresses of the offending countries where most of these scammers originate from, i.e., Nigeria and India.

obviously, they need help from us... report them, not very hard and easier than getting excited about it... and banning the ip's wont work, because they can use servers from anywhere in the states... esiest just to report and block, and let the mods do what they do...

Hello? I think you need to read what I wrote again. I HAVE REPORTED THEM BUT IT WON'T HELP IF THIS SITE TAKES NO SWEEPING ACTION OR DECISION TO BAN SCAMMERS AND THE COUNTRIES WHERE MOST OF THEM ORIGINATE FROM. Duh

I just block them after calling them out and reporting them!
They're not just from Nigeria and India...they're from Everywhere anymore!
Just Report...Block and Continue On.

why dont you quit telling someone else how to run their business and start up your online website and then you ban anybody you want to....until then, how about just block and/or report...like they ask you to do....
