I don't use this site much , just emailed some people the other day, I got 5 emails back, 4 of the five chatted with me a little then 2 told me they were visiting Africa and would be back soon, 2 others told me they lived in Georgia and was there with a relative, they all had on their profile's they were living locally in Oregon where I live. One hit me up for money to buy a cell phone. One other hasn't emailed me back yet. I don't know what to think of it, other than phony pictures, phony profiles and phony dating site

If you feel they are fake profiles then click on the report this profile icon on their profile. Each profile has one, it is there for a reason...

I know I can go around all day and talk to people and none of the women are going to be saying they take trips to Africa , and don't think many will be planning on moving to Georgia anytime soon, though Atlanta is a big place, these ladies weren't living in Atlanta.

Every site is plagued with scammers and fakes just like the real world. Til the scamming industry in places like Africa is wiped it, it will be an issue..

This is a dating site we all have to practice buyer beware.. I personally have been here for years and love the site.

If I am bored I will play with the scammers to get more info before I report them. Most times I report them and in all times they have been deleted.

Internet dating is not for the faint hearted or impatient kind.

Sorry that is just the fact of life.

I chose to instead approach it as I do things in life with a cautious open mind.

Man you have a whole array of dating choices..Salem is only 28 miles north and if that isn't enough you have Portland a little over an hour way...Just joking with you to maybe get to you smile or not...:wink:

There seems to be fakes and scammers on most sites. That is one of the drawbacks of the internet.They have all sorts of stories that they use, as well as different ways of including a phone number or email address when messaging. I roll with it and just ignore them. For the most part I have dated and conversed with some very real and enjoyable people on dating sites, just saying...
