Have been a member 3 times. You pay about £130 and depending on the offer get 4 or 6 weeks. To be honest unless you are in a big city you will make contact (or try) with most in your area and in your age range in that time.
I think I can write an interesting message or so I am told and I only get responses from about 30%. But if you are charming and not crude you can usually get chatting by message with about a quarter of those. And maybe one or two will meet you for coffee. So you can see the numbers come down quite quickly.
Yes I have had success with a few ladies that have led to relationships. So it does work. But they make it very difficult for people to take profiles off, and a lot of profiles are not active.
In addition when I wasn't a member I got a number of winks or messages (you can't read these until you pay) from ladies way out of my area and out of my age range. And they look at your profile and send a message in the same minute. If that happens then it clearly is either bots or someone working for the site to try and pull you back to paying. Because when you are a paying member it hardly ever happens, your membership lapses and hey presto it starts again.....
Pros You can find like minded ladies but 95% of them are not desperate and looking for pure sex. Most want a bit of TLC and a relationship of some sort.
Cons Dead profiles or pretty dormant - lots..
Women who don't reply at all - lots
Money hungry Companies should NOT be trusted
I Inquired about their services and was not ready to push through. They have taken my money and refused to refund me. What kind of a company will do this??
I company that no one should trust!!
I have been battling with them to refund me $ 1,397. The Lady on the phone told me I have 3 days to think about it. I came back to them and said simple , I'm not ready.
If they are truly reputable they should have no issue in refunding someone. Specially that I have never even logged on to their site or used any of their so called services. Other than one phone call to them.
Watch out!!

I was a member of the site for six month, two times I requested lady info, not cheap! Once received ladies information, she cancel her account. Information that Find-Bride gave me was no good. I make complain, some lady name Maria cancel my account.
I send ladies information to the US Embassy in Kiev. This agency should be shut down, later I found out that the two ladies I was communicate with, Ksenya and Darya was sending the same letters to my friend. I should know they were fake by the info in there profile, Doctor with only high school education.
Pros Create a second account and you will see the proof. Also in less than twenty minutes once registered, you will received over 200 letters.
Stay away..!
I was a member of this site for three years, when I told my lady I am coming to visit her. Her account immediately suspended. Then I have my friend to create a account. All letters I received is exactly the same letter in my friend account.
I was in Kiev and the agency fail to meet with me, men's I am warning you, stay away from this site, nothing more than paid model and translator that is writing or communicating to you.
Scams, bloody scammers and thief. The manager Polly when I told her about the scams, she and Maria cancel my account. You all need to be in prison..!
Full of false profiles and scammers who would ask you to send money to come visit you. To make it worse, they have activated subscription auto renew without me approving it, when I asked for refund and after mutual insults with their help service they suspended my account. Advice: STAY AWAY from those crooks
A-Pretty.com like many Dating Agencies from Eastern Europe, have a herd of models posing as available ladies.
If you navigate around them you may find some nice ladies.
For me I was able to find the list of models under most Popular Ladies. Anyone who would think these beauties are real will find out hard way. The reality is economic reasons motivate woman to join and run and industry driven by letter writing for the purpose of personal monetary support nothing more. Yes there are nice women available, but picking through models and professional letter writers and chatters can be quite challenging.
Pros Some nice woman are online here. Stay in a realistic age group.
Cons Models. professional letter writers and chatters can be quite tempting to engage with. Stay away.
I joined this dating site 2 yrs ago. I am a born South african of indian origin. The first time i joined it was going really well. Meeting alot of pretty educated women. Thats what i joined for. Then when i started recieving response from the women ... their profiles wer not available to me!
And after a while i was banned from the site and re directed to the Phillipine cupid site! They even refunded my money even tho i had ppl who wer interested in me!
They told me i have better prospects on the Phillipine site rather than the Thai site! Who the f..k are they to decide that for me? Australia is a known rascist country. And thats wher this site is owned and located. Im a 100% sure that these rascists are behind allowing cross culture rels.. esp ppl of brown and black race from dating thais and europeans..
On April 1st I registered and started talking to a guy. We then closed our profiles and talked on FBI messenger. Talked for couple weeks found out it was a scam. He said he was in army and claimed he wanted to marry me then went on asking me to send $3000 so he could come home and we would be together forever. Of curse I didn't.
Good site. Nice interface. You can communicate with intelligent girls with good sense of humor. Convenient and transparent payment system. Overall, I satisfied this site.
I think Skout is a dangerous site to join. I do believe they are involved and assisting the scam artist. They scam artist create an artificial idea that Skout is an active and healthy place to participate when in fact its numbers of real users are very small. However to get advertising dollars they can claim larger numbers with the thousands of fakes and bots. Lots of victims have been taken for money. Skout legally considers itself not responsible. Legally it may be true. But if you own a company and are hosting thieves and do nothing about it you are guilty of the crime by association. Skout bans and kicks out people who complain about the scammers. Skout is doing what many do when the heats on and their under suspicion. Open a new company and new name with a new face hoping to draw new victims. The behaviour of the software alone and some of the advertising scams that highjack emails are telling of their involvement. I would not trust them whatsoever. If you insist on going there create a safe email account.
Pros Ya can meet a few decent folk after wading thru thousands of phony accounts.
Cons ID theft. Risk to bank account. The scammers are looking to get you into a place they can interact and get your IP. They insist on sharing pics and such. Literally hundreds per day attack and bombard you with request.
Most men on the site play games. I am a black women. Even black men send me messages, I saw their profiles. Their profiles mention wanting only Asian, White, Indian and Latino women. If that is the women you, then why are you messaging black women. They want to friend them or talk debates. It is timewasting.
I am tired of men over 50 sending messages. I don't date men that are old enough to be my father. I have filter my mail to up to 40. Surprised that allow people outside the age range to send flirts/messages through filter mail. At least Pof doesn't allow those messages to go through. There are lack of locals that use the site.
I am disgusted with too many men asking for my photos, when they have only one pic on their profile. If men want to see what I look like, then Skype/Facetime. If men don't have Skype/Facetime, they are catfish.
It is a turn off that men have photo of them with their ex-wife/girlfriend. The person of online dating is meeting someone new and not old exes.
You will be better meeting people outside of online dating.
Pros Free to sign up
Simple to create a profile
Cons Filter mail need to go. If we have filters, then why do we need filter mail. At least POF have filters to where members cannot send anything. Filter shouldn't allow members to send flirts or messages.
Too many creeps, timewasters, and picture collectors
Search could use work. Sometimes search doesn't come up right. When you type looking someone that likes your ethnicity, it comes up opposite.
As other reviewers have said, squirt.org customer service is appalling, and shockingly rude. The jerk I spoke with at squirt was nasty, and he enjoyed being so. When I requested to have MY DATA permanently removed from their servers, I was flatly denied; simply told NO, they don't delete suspended profiles. In other words, ALL user profiles, along with your content, are retained by squirt.org, forever; for the site operators to do with as they please. When I asked where squirt.org servers are located (in Canada or the US), I was told "that's none of your business." In other words, YOUR DATA doesn't belong to you. Squirt takes ownership of your pics & videos, everything you upload to their awful website, they OWN, so they say.
Squirt has also billed my credit card, automatically 'renewed' monthly subscriptions, even though I didn't agree to nor authorize these transactions. I only agreed to 1 Month, each time, but they renewed anyway. After some years of using squirt, I feel that those running the site are creepy and corrupt.
I got suspended today after making a brief comment in my profile description about squirt being greedy and that I wouldn't be giving them any more of my money. So clearly you have to be careful about what you say on squirt, even on your own profile, because they monitor what you say about the website. You are not allowed to criticize squirt.org, or you'll be 'suspended'. So free speech isn't respected on the site.
I could say more about squirt's devious business practices... but essentially, my experience with squirt.org was not a good one. You're nothing more than a credit card number to these people. My advice, please save yourself the grief.
I'm not sure what I can do about getting MY DATA deleted from squirt, but I've followed up with my lawyer. I'll probably have to take squirt to court.
Dating and romance scammers will try to keep you on the website wasting time and money.They often claim to be from Australia or another western country, but travelling or working overseas.
Pros Once they have gained your trust and your defenses are down, they will ask you (either subtly or directly) for money, gifts or your banking/credit card details. They may also ask you to send pictures or videos of yourself, with identy fraud they may ask you to send an ID or passport.
Cons very likely to be forms of money laundering or just a scam which is a criminal offence. The researcher identified the behavior as organized stalking and described it as "emotional harassment" involving "hostile and unethical communication directed in a systematic way by one or a few individuals mainly towards one individual."
Dating and romance scams often take place through online dating websites, but scammers may also use social media or email to make contact. They have even been known to telephone their victims as a first introduction. These scams are also known as catfishing.
There are:
Clues of fake profiles pictures
Clues of fake profiles
Clues of fake conversations
For example to chat privately leads to nothing at all
Scammers typically create fake online profiles designed to lure you in. They may use a fictional name, or falsely take on the identities of real, trusted people such as military personnel, aid workers or professionals working abroad.
Scammers will go to great lengths to gain your interest and trust, such as showering you with loving words, sharing personal information. They may take months to build what may feel like the romance of a lifetime and may even pretend to book flights to visit you, but never actually come.
A big scam aimed at taking your money.none of the girls are real and when you chat you are talking to an wmployee of the site who will say anything to keep you chatting.this site needs to be shut down they are ruining lives with their lies
THIS SITE IS A SCAM FROM THE BEGINNING. THE GIRLS MUST HAVE A SCRIPT THAT THEY FOLLOW BECAUSE ALL TELL SLIGHT VARIATIONS OF THE SAME STORY. THEY LIE ABOUT HAVING A CAMERA PHONE EVEN IF ALL THEIR PROFILE PICTURES ARE SELFIES. THEY LIE ABOUT WHAT THEY DO, THEY'RE EITHER IN SCHOOL, HAIRDRESSERS OR BABYSITTERS. THE MAJORITY OF THE PICTURES ARE TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE AND IF YOU PAY ATTENTION TO DETAILS A LOT OF THE WOMEN TAKING PICTURES IN THE SAME AREAS. I'VE SPOKEN TO A FEW OF THEM AND COULD HEAR MEN IN THE BACKROUND COACHING THEM ON WHAT TO SAY, PLUS WHEN I HAD THE CHANCE TO VIDEO CHAT WITH SOME OF THEM THEY DIDN'T LOOK LIKE THEIR PICTURES.
Pros NONE, THIS SITE IS THE WORST I'VE EVER BEEN ON!
Expensive but would be worth it but for the false profiles
Review about Illicit EncountersHave been a member 3 times. You pay about £130 and depending on the offer get 4 or 6 weeks. To be honest unless you are in a big city you will make contact (or try) with most in your area and in your age range in that time.

Pros
You can find like minded ladies but 95% of them are not desperate and looking for pure sex. Most want a bit of TLC and a relationship of some sort.
Cons
Dead profiles or pretty dormant - lots..
Women who don't reply at all - lots
And false profiles trying to get you to rejoin.
My recommendation is with reservations!
