Prospective newcomers to these type of forums; beware of people running multiple personals, using many different pictures, sites, even lying about their sex, age even race. They will say anything, promise anything to gain your personal information to use in thier favor.
Scammers are paying huge sums of $ for active emails. Once ransom ware hits your box the mere act of trying to delete it will cause activation in some cases.

I know your talking there's red flags to follow. Note that these women are not usually American. They claim to be American ethnicity Native American but can't name their tribe. Another flag is they all want to be serious with you all marriage. Look at the words they use, pretty much out dated. They use the word language rather then grammar. It's easy to catch. Then they will ask you for a gift card if some sort like amazon. -

Apr 26, 2025 9:32 PM UTCI don't respond to threads like this with pointers on what to look for because it's likely you're just giving the same pointers to the scammers. Most of the time when someone gets scammed it's because they didn't do their due diligence, or were taken in because of their own greed. -

Wisdom does not tell us to be on the internet to meet people.
Wisdom does not tell us to send strangers money and gift cards.
Wisdom does not tell us to give out personal information.
Yet here we are. Where we know we shouldn't be.
It is like winning the lottery which is designed for people to lose.
And one of the perks of actually meeting someone from one of these sites maybe a gift that keeps on giving like VD.
