I just got here and appear to be a magnet for every person that wants to talk offline. I know this is a typical scam technique but how long does it last? I'm almost ready to delete after 2 days

It's a never ending thing on the site. Just report it.

On every profile, there is a report button.
Report then and block them...
That is the only way they will stop..
Welcome to Mingle.
Stay smart and have fun...

welcome to the net lol
they are every where
like Cockroaches

even worse on other sights i have been on
most pay sights give them a 3 day free pass
so when you are there you jump to pay cause of all the mail you are getting (unable to read till you sub)

then find out was a waist of money <face palm>

best wishes on your hunt

like Sitka said report them
after a while you get used to them and start playing with them

i figure they want to waist my time i might as well waist there's : )

....Wouldn't that include people you are trying to date?

I know this is a typical scam technique

But it could also be people on here wanting to know you aren't a scam techniquer, trying to prove you are real.

Although, the best way to do that is to meet offline rather than chat online or the phone.

how long does it last?

Until the next shift comes on?

I'm almost ready to delete after 2 days

Start some more forum threads!

shaydate38,

First, welcome to the site. To bad that you live too far away from me.

Second, what you are experiencing is a common occurrence for plenty of site members. I've had them, too. Yet, this site is still worth being a part of. Just be active in the forums, and the real people will make you glad that you stayed.
